His Brother [On Hold]

Chapter Eight

The next day, Isla didn't want to wake up or go to school. She was hurt, really hurt this time. She couldn't understand how they could keep something like that from her.

She groaned as the sun light hit er face through the curtains and pulled the covers over her head. A few seconds later, the alarm went off and she lazily tried finding it without opening her eyes and turned it off.

She sat up, rubbed her eyes and climbed out of bed. She made her way to the bathroom and turned the shower on as she locked the door before taking her clothes off.

Once done in the shower, she walked back into her room and took out some clothes from her closet. She got dressed in black leggings, a sweater and some sneakers.

She dried her hair, and braided it. She skipped the makeup and brushed her teeth before grabbing her bag to leave the house.

Once outside the house, an all to familiar red Impala pulled up into her driveway and she saw Oscar gesturing to the passenger seat.

"What are you doing here?" She asked him annoyed.

"Good morning to you too" He spoke sarcastically and opened the passenger door for her to get in.

"You're not driving me to school" She told him.

Oscar chuckled. "Come on, Bebita. Get in"

Isla rolled her eyes and climbed into the passenger seat. "What are you even doing here?"

Oscar started the car up again and drove off towards the school. "Wanted to make sure you were okay after yesterday"

"Wow, so he does have a heart" Isla gasped playfully.

"Don't tell anyone" He spoke, puffing out smoke from his blunt. "So, when are your parents coming back?"

Isla shrugged, glancing out the window. "I don't know... My life is literally falling apart. First my mom moves back home, then school starts, and then Monse and Olivia hang out with Jasmine and not me! And then, they keep a secret from me. Which by the way, was a huge secret!"

Isla took a deep breath as she was done ranting about her life, and glanced at Oscar, who had a small smile playing on his lips.

"Sounds hard" He spoke with sarcasm, and she rolled her eyes at him.

"Eres increíble" Isla spoke, opening the car door as he parked outside the school. (You're unbelievable)

"I'll see you at game, Bebita" Oscar chuckled, and drove off once she closed the door.

Isla grabbed some food from the cafeteria, seeing her friends sitting at a table. She ignored them and sat down alone, taking a sip of her water.

As her friends all walked away from the table they sat on, Olivia made her way over to Isla with a small smile. "Hey"

"Hey" Isla greeted back, giving the brunette a weak smile.

Olivia placed her tray on the table and sat down across from her. "So, are we cool?"

"Yeah, we're cool. You didn't do anything" Isla told her as Jamal sat down next to her with his tray.
