Misunderstood | Monika FanFic

Chapter 8: Desperation

Well, life sucks sometimes. I hadn't been in school all week because of an illness. It was now Friday and I was back in school. I still hadn't heard anything from or about Monika. I hated it and I thought about checking in on her. But she needed time to talk to me. I was just scared. What if I'd fucked up and made her not wanna come to school anymore.

Ugh, why do I have to make dumb decisions sometimes. I mean, I'm just an idiot, I always have been. I've never been true to myself either. I'm just useless sometimes, I really am.

Anyway, enough kicking myself while I'm down, detention over. Yeah, I had detention, and I don't even remember why. So now I was late to club. I was hoping I was allowed back without fuss. But that was probably not gonna happen, and more than likely I'd have to have Yuri fight my corner because Monika had turned them all against me for making her kiss me when she didn't want to.

Or maybe I'm just blowing this whole thing out of proportion and I'm actually just being a total dumbass. Either way I have no idea what's gonna happen today.

I made my way to the clubroom. I was nervous as all hell. I knew I was gonna be questioned about my absence. I just knew it. I entered the clubroom and immediately all eyes were on me. I waved to them all while scanning the room.

Monika was nowhere to be seen. I didn't think she'd stay off.

S: Welcome back. Yuri told us about your condition.

L: It wasn't that serious. Its not like I was dying. Just a little setback.

I smile at Sayori for showing concern and go to take my seat.

S: Oh yeah, good job on the posters. It's really appreciated that you're promoting this festival.

L: Actually, Monika did most of the work.

Sayori had a disgusted look on her face which confused me. That wasn't like her at all. I didn't wanna question it in case there was drama between the two that didn't concern me and I said too much.

L: Alright then.

S: We don't talk about her anymore.

Okay, I needed to know what was going in now. Monika was my best friend and now she'd been effectively exiled from the club.

L: What the fuck have I missed? I miss four days of school and now my best friend is an outcast.

S: Your "best friend" is a compulsive liar and a manipulative cheater.

What?! That didn't sound like Monika at all. She was usually very patient and honest no matter who she was with. Unless I was so blind I mistook her lies for honesty. But no, she wasn't lying about Vertical Infinity.

L: What?

Sayori pulls out her phone and shows me tons of screenshots of Monika lying to her boyfriends in the past and screenshots as proof of her cheating.

L: Yuri! Why the fuck didn't you tell me this!?

Y: W-Well, you were sick. I didn't w-w-wanna upset a sick person.

L: I'd love to be kept in the loop about things. I'm giving a lot of time for this club to have the perfect festival, I wanna be treated like the member that I am.

I was angered now. It caused me to storm out of the clubroom. I knew what I had to do from here. I booked it down the street as fast as I could.

I kept running towards the place I was on Thursday last week. The Nicolaides-Hana residence. I needed to check on Monika. I hoped she hadn't hurt herself.

I got to the big mansion, and knocked on the door. A woman that looked a lot like Monika answered. However she was a little shorter.

L: You must be Monikas mother. Nice to meet you Miss.
