“I told you it’s not working anymore! Stop stalking me and get the hell out of here.” I said.
“but what happened? We’ve been dating since four months and it was going just fine.” Drake said.
I slammed my house door on his face and he stumbled backward. He gave me a dirty look but I was least interested. I turned. He mumbled, “why is she this way?” and left. Well, that was something I had no answer of. Why was I this way? Well. Maybe because my so called “best friend” who had been my best friend cum crush cum partner in crime from the past 5 years was now dating my own sister? Well, yeah you can say.
“coming mom!” I shouted and went towards the kitchen.
Drake was a good guy. I mean, fun to speak to. But dating? Nah. I was dating him only because he was Rob’s (my ex-best friend) best friend. I just wanted to prove him that I was good without him and he did not control my life… or maybe I was proving that to myself. I could lie to the whole world but not to myself. Rob owned my heart. I loved him not since the past five days, not five months, but five whole years. At one point, we had a very good chance, when he kissed me on the cheek in front of the whole school as we were the rose king and queen respectively. I really thought it meant something okay? And so did the whole school cause they got all “oohh” at that point of time. The last six months, I had been a total wreck. The most popular girl in the school was disaster. They thought it was because of my dad. He had died around that time too due to lung cancer. I mean, yeah I did feel bad for him but to be honest, I was mentally and physically prepared for it. It was a tough time for me and my mom both. As for my sister? Well she was too busy making arrangements for her first date with Rob. It was already too pissing off seeing Rob go out with my sister. What was more pissing off was the fact that the whole school was gossiping about the three of us. The news of Rob and Alisha together spread like fire! The entire school thought that me and Rob were the next hot couple and they were waiting for it to happen, honestly even I was.
“eat your breakfast fast honey, you’ll be late otherwise.” Mom said.
I half-jumped hearing the sound of her voice. I was deep in thought at that time. I saw my cereal and gobbled it up hurriedly.
“I’ll see you soon,mom. Take care.” I told her and left for the car, kissing her on the cheek.
“hey, wait for Alisha!” Mom called out.
“oh no, mom. Tell her darling boyfriend to pick her up. Why would she wanna go to school with a “loser” like me anyway?” I said, shrugging.
Mom scowled. I opened the gate of the car, slamming it behind in anger.
I had had enough of Alisha… and Rob.

“where’s the sexy lady going, huh?” called out an African guy as soon as I parked my car.
I gave him the “oh, you’re-so-funny look” and slammed his balls hard and walked away.
“chill it up!” he moaned.
I turned and told him, “well that’s what you need to. Guess hurt you hard enough.”
Everyone around me chuckled. I took my bag and left from that place. God, I hated school. People, or couples like Rob and Alisha just pissed me off. As soon as I looked up, I saw Jennifer Eriksen. Okay. Jennifer Eriksen was the most clumsy, geeky, and irritating person ever. It looked like you have picked her up from some dustbin. She was smiling, showing me her awful braces that still had pieces of food particles in them. Her breath smelt worse than shit. She was wearing a waist coat along with jeans that looked as if it was of her mother. The waist coat could mark her curves. In short, she looked hideous.
“what do you want?” I asked, walking, Even though I knew why she was here.
“Sam.. could you.. could you.. please.. please.. the.. could..you..” she stammered.
“oh god just stop it! And stay away from me and talk! God, you stink. I don’t have the entire day listening to your nonsense about getting you in the basketball team! You cannot play and you never can. First get those fat out of your body and then come and talk to me, you dipshit.” I screamed at her.
The entire school was looking at me with awe. They always wanted to tell those stuff to Jennifer. Just that they couldn’t. Her mom had died of heart attack and her brother was kind of a loner. Her parents were divorced and she hadn’t even seen her father. Her life was hard. She had no friends, too.
I don’t know what made me shout at her this bad. Maybe the fact that I was already in such a bad mood. But after I did, I felt like a total bitch.
“hey, look Jennifer I’m-“ I started. But it was too late. She had already burst out crying and she turned and ran away.
“Look, I’m sorry. I didn’t..” I called out but she had already stopped listening.
I saw the others staring at me. I just shrugged and said, “why don’t you all just do your own work?”
They rolled their eyes and everything was back to normal again. I started walking towards class. I was feeling sorry for what I said. I had no right of hurting her emotions like this. She was a human being after all. I thought of apologizing to her. But then I realized, Samantha Hayes does not apologize to anyone.
