It was a cold windy day in the town of new holland. It was raining a bit, not too much for it to storm like every other day. Alice was in the garage, pulling out the rusty old Raleigh bike near the boxes of moms old stuff. She unchains the links on the tires, and grabs a hose and starts cleaning it. Charles comes from the front door and leans against the border of the garage door. " cleaning my old bike hon?" he replied as he walks over to his eldest daughter. " yeah, dad. Thinking of riding it." she murmured, shutting the hose before starting to clean. She then saw a boy, standing at the front entrance of the garage. He had a baseball bat on his shoulder, looking at Alice.
Alice glares at him, and gives her dad the sponge with the towel " take these, I need to talk to him." she said coldly, pulling him away from dad. " I heard what you said in the hallway." she said furiously. " why did you tell the others that you only were my friend because you wanted to take advantage of me for you to succeed in school??" she yelled, thrusting her index finger into his chest. " how could you?!" she said, turning her glance away from him. Nassor just stood there, emotionless before putting a hand on her shoulder before it was slapped away " no!" she exclaimed. " you're a careless boy who has no intentions of good. And I feel sorry for you, you know what no, I'm not because I felt sorry for you once but knowing you put me through your stupid success game I take it all back!" she cried. " just leave me alone." she said, running away before nassor grabbed her cardigan sleeve, looking at the grass. " let go!" she debated, falling on the ground in the process. Nassor stepped closer to her, looking down at her coldly. " you can't jutht leave me alone, not again." and for once in his life, he shedded a tear. " I've lost my mother, I can't looth you too." he said, looking down for he was embarrassed to cry in front of her.
Alice just stared at him, getting in his face. He, the one who scared others by his looks, actually felt scared by Alice this time. She looks up and down at him " you already have.." she said, trudging off in a huff, a tear on her face. she stops, and turns around, looking at nassor before going into her home, his just standing there, his heart broken.
