DREAD. It was all i felt the next morning.If the night wasn't bad enough, i woke up from the news that the Mayor had passed away. Even though Sheriff Galpin informed us that he was barely alive, it looked like inevitable was just being prolonged.
And then there was Wednesday. Everything with her was like a storm—sudden, unpredictable, and leaving destruction in its wake. One day we were friends, the next it felt like we were more, and now she had pushed me away completely. I wanted to believe she would come to me first, instead of me having to chase after her like some lovesick fool.
"Hey, you ready for the funeral tomorrow?" Ajax's voice pulled me from my thoughts. He had noticed me stirring.
"Do we have to go?" I groaned, rubbing my face. No disrespect to the Mayor, but I barely knew him. It felt hollow to attend when my only connection was obligation.
"Yes, pretty much everyone's going" Ajax said. I was about to protest when he added, "It excuses our classes that day."
"On second thought, i think i will attend" i informed him with a smile. "So how are things with you and Enid?"
"So, how are things with you and Enid?" I asked, stretching.
"We're good... I think. Not sure if we're official yet, though. And after all the chaos from yesterday, things are just kinda... messy." The gorgon sighed, running a hand through his dreads.
"Yeah, she's been through a lot lately. You can thank Wednesday for that." I nodded knowingly.
"Speaking of the devil, how's it going with you two? Have you talked about... what happened?" Ajax asked cautiously.
"She's avoiding me. Pushing me away. And honestly? She's succeeding." I exhaled sharply, rubbing the back of my neck.
"Lucas, this is the first time you've actually fallen for a girl. Don't let this slip away. You never know how it could affect you in the future." He nudged me as I walked toward the bathroom.
"Affect me how? Let me guess because i didn't date my first crush i'll never get over her and die alone" I scoffed.
"Hey, you're denying it now..." Ajax trailed off, smirking. I flipped him off before shutting the bathroom door.

The hallways felt quieter than usual as I made my way toward Yoko's dorm. I figured Enid could use a check-in after everything. If I knew her at all, she was probably curled up inside, trying to convince herself she was fine. But she wasn't.
I knocked twice, and, not surprisingly, Enid answered with exhaustion written all over her face. Behind her, Yoko was lounging on her bed, music blasting through her headphones.
