It's another regular school day - actually, first without Daniel. Without further a do, Miss Information had the gossip flowing like a bursting volcano, bombarding Emma with lots of questions regarding Daniel's sudden withdrawal from Iridium High.
Gigi asked, "So, Emma, do you know what happened to Daniel Miller? Was he expelled?"
Emma lied, "I don't know actually. He hasn't talked to me eversince."
"Did you two break up? Are you two having a long distance relationship?"
The question made Emma stutter and kind of freak out in the inside. Luckily, Mia was walking in the same hallway as they were and saved [one of] her best friend from extracting more personal information from Emma.
"Wow, Mia, thanks."
"It's nothing. That's what friends are for. And hey, you were lucky that I didn't pass through the cafeteria."
The two gal pals walked to the cafeteria and had lunch with Andi. On the left side from their table, there sat the Panthers, and on the right, Philip, Diego, and Jax. Emma suddenly remembered the incident last night and glared at Andi to remind her not to tell anyone.
Andi whined, "I'm not allowed to tell anyone?"
"Tell what?" Mia said as she took a bite of out the apple in her hand. She cocked an eyebrow as Andi and Emma stuttered.
On cue, a bucket of oatmeal fell on the Panthers' table. The boys, on the other hand, covered their mouth with their fists to avoid laughing and acted as if nothing handed.
"Whoops, the T3 are still here," Jax muttered, "That means Daniel must've been expelled."
Maddie, being the Maddie she is, wiped the oatmeal out of her hair with a disgusted look on her face and shouted, "Proxy!"
"Prox, your girl's calling you." Philip told Diego. He groaned and helped the Panthers to the girls' washroom so they could cast a spell to get them dry, quick and easy. But, of course, Diego didn't go in with them. It's a girls' washroom.
Mia continued, "Like I was saying, tell what?"
Emma sighed, "I'll tell you later on."
~~~~~
At Mia's house, Emma was telling her about what happened last night - that she was thinking of a certain someone when Philip gave Andi a gift last night and so she lied when she said that she was tired.
Mia remarked, "Those moments can't be avoided."
"And that's not all."
"Wow, it seems like I'm not updated." she crossed her arms.
Emma apologized, "Mia, I'm sorry."
"Em, I was kidding, I understand." she chuckled.
There was a moment of silence while they continue to use their phones and check their social media accounts. And as they did, something caught Emma's eye - Daniel's Instagram post of him having a great time in Orlando with another girl.
But then she realized, Daniel told her that he was going to Houston. That's like a thousand miles away from Orlando. BIG DIFFERENCE.
A tear fell down from Emma's eye. "Looks like he's having a lot of fun."
Mia kept her phone, grabbed Emma's, and unfollowed Daniel Miller. She closed her phone and handed it back to Emma, who looked very confused. "What did you just do?"
Mia lectured, "The first step to the land of Moving On is not to stalk the guy."
Emma sarcastically muttered, "Yep, that's why." She looked jealous and unhappy at the same time because of the scenario that happened the night that Daniel left.
"Look, Em, I'm sorry that Daniel thought of me as more than just a friend but I didn't because I knew you were dating him and all."
The witch's frown turned upside down.
"Plus, you're one of my best friends. If I did, it would risk losing our friendship, which I know would not be worth it."
The two besties hugged it out.
