Middle School

The Drama Queen

A couple of days later I found out that Emma has told my bug secret. I can't believe her! Why would she betray me like this? Can I trust her anymore? I mean this was a big secret that nobody could find out about. I bet the whole school knows now.

In computer class, I write a note to Emma: "why would you ell her? I thought I could trust you! How could you just go behind my back and tell her?! What if I tell you a bigger secret then what would you do? Huh!? Would you open up your fat mouth and tell the whole world?"

I folded up the slip of paper and wrote on the front To: Emma From:Makayla.

I pass the note on to my neighbor who reads the front if it and passes it down the line until it reaches Emma. A couple of minutes later, I get the note back that says: "what are you talking about Mak! What huge secret did I tell? I never betrayed you! You are losing your mind! If you want to talk about this then wait until after class, we will meet up in the bathroom and talk things out. Okay?" That was the end of that conversation.

The class went on for about another 45 minutes before the bell rang signaling the students to switch classes. I waited outside the classroom door for Emma to come out. She came out and I grabbed her wrist and pulled her to the bathroom.

"Okay so first of all, why did you tell?!" I said loudly but not quite a scream.

"What?" She said.

"You told Adele that I told you about everything! You can't keep water a secret!"

She rolled her eyes and stormed out of the bathroom. As hard as it was for me to ignore it, I managed to do it. She knows that is my biggest pet peeve.

I looked at myself in the mirror and saw tears forming in my eyes. I did not hesitate to let them fall. I just continued to walk to the school exit.

The next day was a Saturday and I decided to have a lazy day. You know not do anything except lay around, eat, sleep, play on your phone. Well Emma called me. I didn't know whether or not to answer her. So I just let it go to voicemail. Then she called again. I answered a bit agitated.

"Mak I am sorry for telling Adele everything! I should have known you were serious about me telling her." She said apologetically.

"Well lets just say that everything is cleared we're cool and no drama!" I replied.

I normally don't just forgive people like that. I am kind of known for holding a bit of a grudge toward some people. I just don't like to fight with my friends! No scratch that! My sisters! :)

**Emma's POV**

So it has been about three weeks since I have seen Mak and Adele, so I decided to give them a surprise visit at their homes. I go to Mak's house first. All three cars are in the driveway. I walk up to her door and knock. ... No answer. I knock again. .............no answer. I leave her house and go to Adele's. same thing, all the cars are there but no answer at the door.

"Maybe their parents dropped them off somewhere." I mumble only loud enough for myself to hear.

I go back to my house and ask my mom if I can go to the mall to look for Mak and Adele. "Yea sure! Let me get my self dressed and ready!"

**30 minutes later.**

We arrive at the mall and I frantically search Aeropostale, Hollister, and every electronic/shoe store I can find.

Nowhere to be found. I am starting to get worried. I pull out my phone and call Adele.

She answers.

"Where are you guys?"

"Uhmmm..."

Click. She hung up.

Strange. I call Mak.

No answer. I wonder where they are.
