"Hailey, if you need a break just tell me ok? ". I put a hand on her shoulder as she nodded.

It was two days after the incident. Today was the day that Hailey decided to come back to school. She shivered as we walked down the hallways. Maybe she's not ready for this yet. I stopped walking for a while, looking at her from head to toe as she stopped walking and faced her locker.

She seemed distant. A tinge of redness under her eyes to indicate that she was crying. She hasn't smiled ever since the incident and all I heard from her were insufficient sobs.

She took her books out of her locker and closed the locker door. Then she saw something peculiar that made her eyes welled up with tears. I turned around to look where she was looking and saw at the corner, Jake fiddling with his phone.

A tinge of anger rose in me. Jake. Can't believe he still has the audacity to come back to school after what he has done. He should just perish.

All of a sudden, a boy that I didn't know approached Jake and kicked him. Jake fell to the ground as the boy shouted curse words at him.

" what a freak you are! Haha! A jerk! How could you hurt the music club! They were nice to you yknow! And yet you hurt them! Jerk! "

A crowd formed around Jake and I heard Jake groaning in pain as they all kicked him.

"Zander? ..What the heck happened while I was gone? Why is a group of people hitting on Jake? How did they know about what happened between us and Jake? "

"I don't know Hailey."

Suddenly, we felt like someone was behind us. We turned around and Milly appeared in front of my eyes.

"Zoey sent the recording towards the whole school on social media.... Everyone knows what happened"

Milly's voice sounded cold. She faced the ground while talking to us. It seemed like she wasn't too happy with the news either. My eyes averted back to Jake who is now pushing away the crowd and moving his way to the office. My guess is that he didn't want to stay anymore in this school. All of a sudden we see Sean going after him and pulling him away to a room once he caught up to him.

My curiosity got the better of me as I walked to the room where they were in with Hailey and Milly following closely behind.we approached the rooms and all 3 of us peeked in to hear their conversation.

"Jake.we can talk about yknow? "

Jake averted his eyes to the ground. He seemed like he wanted to be left alone . He opened his mouth and closed it back. Unable to think of where to start.

"Sean I- well- uh-"

His eyes started to well up with tears and sudden he couldn't hold in anymore and just broke down. Sean rushed to his side and put an arm around him.

"I never knew it would hurt this much when you guys kicked me out but now the whole school knows and I feel like I have to go through middle school again! "

He sobbed and Sean pulled him into a hug and comforted him. He knows there's nothing he could do to make him happy again but he is willing to tell Jake that he is there for him. (Just like a good friend would 🥺😭)

"Sean? "
"Yes jake? "
"Could you do me a favour? "
"What favour? "
"Well I miss being in the club badly and if you don't mind. Could you take videos of the club once in a while and send it to me pls? "
"Sure jake, it will take a while but sure"
"Thank you Sean, thank you-"

All of a sudden he fainted and Sean started getting worried and shouting jake's name to try and rouse him awake. He took out his phone and started calling somebody.
"911 what's your emergency? "
"My friend fainted would you pls come quickly? "
"Calm down sir we need to check whether he is still breathing can you check whether there is a pulse? "

Sean moved his hand towards jake's neck. Checking for a pulse. I started figeting and was contemplating whether to help him or not. I made my decision and ran inside the room.

"Is he ok? "
"Zander thank god! Check whether he has a pulse! I don't know how to do it"
I checked for a pulse.
"There is one but is very faint"
Sean said the same thing to the phone operator. Soon the ambulance arrived and took Jake away as I watched from a distance.

Never once in my life have I felt bad for Jake until now. Never once did I feel any sympathy or remorse or guilt towards him. But when I found out that I won't be able to see him ever again, it all came crashing down towards me like a tidal wave. We suffered greatly from his loss. And there nothing we could do to ever bring him back.
