JULIE:- OK am sorry let's go

then we all went out of the washroom I hold Lia's hand from one of my hands and the girl's hand from my other hand but then the girl started pulling me to the direction of the stairs to the upper floor

JULIE:- what are you doing we can't go there the freaky man is upstairs

STUDENT:- but my class is upstairs and we can hide inside the locker

JULIE:- what no we can't hide at this golden chance the man is not here so let's get out of this school

JULIE:- what's so special than your life in this situation huh my parents would be so worried about me I don't even know what time is it

STUDENT:- you have your parents waiting for you but my best friend just got killed the special thing is her last gift to me .Today is my birthday the terrible day in which my mother died because I was born and my father though I was bad luck so he left me in a hell like orphanage and the high light of my days my best friend just got killed today on my birthday (tears were falling down her cheeks*) THERE'S EVEN MORE TO THAT DO YOU WANNA HEAR IT ALL (shouting*)

JULIE:- am really sorry I didn't knew that (head down*)

STUDENT:- (crying*) the thing is the only person who actually loved me as a sister was her I never saw even a picture of my mother and when she was killed in front of me I couldn't even do anything to save her .... am really sorry too for shouting on you

JULIE:- it's okay

I looked at Lia she was just standing and had no expression on her face just listening to what we are saying

JULIE:- ok now let's go to were you want

I hold Lia's hand as the girl lead us to her  class

STUDENT:- this is my class .Wait right here I will get the gift

she switched on the lights as we went in and waited in her class .She approached a pink bag and pulled out a little plastic bag out of it she threw the plastic bag and she had a glass like material ball which was half filled with glitter and had two figurines inside it she smiled looking at it then she approached us and showed us the little ball

STUDENT:- this is me (pointing at one of the figurines*) and this is her (pointing at the other*)

JULIE:- wow this is beautiful look at this Lia

LIA:- yeah it is but why are you two stuck in a glass ball

STUDENT:- because this is the safe zone where nobody can hurt us or tell us what to do see this strong glass nobody can get in

JULIE:- it's so pretty

LIA:- yet it broke and now you're sad and she is not with you to protect you

the expression on the girl's face fell

JULIE:- we will be there for you then

LIA:- can I hold it please

STUDENT:- of course but please be careful

LIA:- of course I will be

as she gave the ball to Lia it fell and rolled out of the class

STUDENT:- ohh no wait right here for me I will be back soon

the girl went out of the class

JULIE:- what happened to you Lia what were you saying to that poor girl (angry tone*)

suddenly Lia had tears in her eyes

JULIE:- what happened to you

LIA:- I don't want to share you ok suddenly this random girl comes in our lives and your all smiles with her she lost her bff but are you gonna take away my bff and give it to that poor girl who is very depressed well am depressed too ok I don't want to lose you for a random girl remember all the good times we had together and you just promised me that till your last breath you will always be there for me and now your promising the same thing to another girl

JULIE:- no

silence*

LIA:- wow just a simple no

JULIE:- I mean no you are my bff forever why are you saying all this what has gotten in to you

LIA:- nothing I just don't want to los..

as Lia was completing her sentence the door of the room closed with a loud bang we both flinched at the sudden bang

LIA:- what was that

JULIE:- I don't know

suddenly the light went out*
both of us screamed Lia started to take long breaths

JULIE:- Lia are you claustrophobic why  didn't you told me before

Lia started to cry silently* and then she started mumming (I don't want to stay here please someone save me*)

JULIE:- Lia are you okay what happened please tell me

then Lia started to stare at me *

JULIE:- Lia your creeping me out please tell me what happened to you

LIA:- Julie your here am so happy please save me (shivering voice*)

JULIE:- yes am right here beside you

Lia hugged me tightly but then we heard a gentle knock on the door
