Eyes Behold

7. Surprise

" Oh !! Do you know Jordan is having a concert here ? Right in the city we are sitting in right now ? " Catherine exclaimed

" What are you saying ... When? "

" COMING SUNDAY"

" Sush down Catty. We are in a public place which is meant for everyone" Rose teased lightly .

They were currently sitting together at the famous table in the cafeteria. Ryder had apologised to Amelia somewhere during the day and now everybody was good .

Amelia scoffed while Ryder seemed to glance around as if he never heard Rose open her mouth . Everybody burst out into laughter. Ryder was utterly embarrassed while Amelia felt proud of her comebacks when Rose had relayed the whole cafe incident to them earlier .

" And what am I hearing ? This Sunday? Oh god !!! I wanna go .. "

" We can't miss it "

" But we got no tickets"

"And there is no chance ofo getting them now "

Five groans were heard from the table and Rose was shocked to see Carlos groan too . Looking at her face he exclaimed.

" What ? Can't I be a Jordan fan? "

" Oh no ! I never said anything. It was just unexpected. Sorry !! "

" So why are you all so sad guys ? It's just a concert " Ryder asked amused .

" JUST A CONCERT???" Amelia and Catherine shrieked .

" Ok ! Ok! Geez guys . If you want it so bad ,I can arrange some tickets for you all .."

" You can do that ?" Amelia's mouth flew open .

" Yeah only if Rose tells me to ."

Amelia scoffed . Rose looked shocked but nevertheless told him to do so . So he agreed .

Happy squeals were heard from the famous table .All glanced over curiously. These new girls were definitely something to make the populars behave like this ,they thought .

So the girls scurried off to their rooms the moment the classes for the day got over . Squeals were heard from 204 and 404 all over as they decided what to wear .

The day for which they had been waiting like hell had finally arrived.

Rose was forced to wear a rainbow coloured dress that just fell short of her knees while all the three girls set out for her hair.They were pretty long and thick for a single person to handle .

" I completely adore you Rose . How do you even manage to handle them daily? My hands are already aching and I'm just combing one third of it " Stephanie groaned shaking her arms dramatically.

" Yeah Roe ! They have grown a lot since last time . Claire and I were able to handle them all too well back then ."

At Claire's name Rose's eyes welled up remembering her other best friend. She always wanted to be a writer and was so good at it . Her poems and stories had so much depth in them that you had to read between the lines to appreciate them .

There was a reason she never brought her up to Amelia before . She was extremely guilty as she had pushed her away in the last months before she left suddenly .They had been drifting apart only God knows why. They had been on edge for a long time now and this was one of her many regrets in life and so that day Rose had given this advise to Ryder to never offend someone or the regret is just too much to handle.

She could never get out and talk openly about this tension which was thick between them .Both pretended it was never there but knew better . She regretted every time stopping before pointing out the elephant in the room. She was afraid after pointing it out she will lose the small thing they had .
