Fridays, the last day of the week. Here they are, sitting on different sides of the room. Dinah and Normani were on the left part of the corner. Keana was sitting silently beside Lauren, who was just eating silently. Vero entered, eyes scanning the cafeteria. When she and Lauren locked eyes, the raven was the first to look away.

"What happened?" Dinah asks, looking at Vero who sat in a different table with Alexa and some other friends.

"Vero and Lauren had an argument yesterday." Normani informed, proceeding to tell the whole story of how the two almost fought yesterday.

"Oh." Was all Dinah could say, turning to see Lauren who was looking down on her food, while Vero stood up and bought food before leaving the cafeteria.

"How about Mila, did you talk yesterday?" Normani asked, while Dinah's face turned into a frown.

"No, when Ally and I dropped by yesterday no one was answering their house. I have an extra key that Mila gave me last time, incase she lost hers. But there was no one home." Dinah said sadly.

"Did you try calling?"

"She didn't answer." Dinah looked down.

"I'm afraid things won't get resolved if none of them does the first move." Normani said sadly.

"This is the only time Mila has shut me out, and I don't like it." Dinah says, looking at Normani before she slumped down.

Inside a different room was a silent brunette, both arms crossed on the table, eyes looking outside the window. She did not have a single appetite to eat, nor the energy to interact. After running away yesterday crying, Camila found herself in the back of a public bus, on the way home.

Perhaps she was too lost in her thought, not even noticing the teacher entering the room she was in.

"Camila." Ms. Amber whispered, looking at Camila who immediately sat up and looked at the teacher.

"How are you feeling?" Ms. Amber asked, which sparked a confusion on the brunette's face.

"Your mom called, how are you feeling?"

"I'm feeling alright Ms. Amber." Camila smiled with a small nod, before there was a soft knock on the door.

"I know you haven't eaten yet, so I asked food for you." Ms. Amber smiled.

"I...I'm not hungry." Camila whispered.

"If you take things to heart, you will feel like that. Why don't you tell me what happened?" Ms. Amber smiled, while Camila bit her lip.

"Camila." Michael smiled, catching up to the brunette as she got out of the detention room.

"I just want to-"

"You don't care about other people don't you?" Were the brunette's first words.

"What?"

"When we met at the reunion, you saw that I was already taken. When you transfered here I introduced my girlfriend to you, and earlier you still asked me to the ball." Camila said, not looking up.

"Camila..."

"I don't know what you saw in me, or what part of I have a girlfriend do you not understand?"

"I didn't think it was serious...she even said congrats when you nodded." Michael reasoned out.

"Are you...hearing yourself right now?" Camila scoffed before she looked at him.
