Tessa:Laura!!
She was standing on the edge of the terrace. If she takes one more step she will be dead. I immediately ran towards her and pulled her down
Tessa:Lauraa are you out of your mind!!! Why are you standing there?!

She was silent. Her eyes are red and puffy. Maybe she was crying?
I immediately understand that something was wrong
Tessa:Laura(I called her softly) Are you ok? Did something happen?
You can tell me.
She still wasn't saying a single word and was just staring at me blankly
Tessa:Umm do you want to bunk school today? Let's go I'll take you to a nice place.
And then we ended up in my secret base. It was the place behind a park full of trees.
Tessa:Do you like this place? Do you know whenever I feel low I come here to make myself calm. Nature always makes me feel good.
She was still silent not saying any single word.
Tessa:What happened Laura?
I sighed
Tessa:Umm it's ok if you don't wanna tell me anything. I respect your privacy.
Laura:I don't know. I wasn't in my right state of mind. My.. My family they always pressurize me on everything. They never ever asked me what do I want. They always force me on everything. I was feeling suffocated from inside. So I took the decision to end myself.
I was starring at her speechless
Laura:(she laughed sadly) Seriously? Why the help I'm telling you all this.
Before she could finish I pulled her into a hug
Tessa:Shh I am so sorry. I didn't know. I-I
Laura:You don't have to be sorry (she said breaking the hug) Do you know Rose also don't know about my family problems.
Tessa:(I smiled at her words) Thanks for telling me. I'll make sure to keep your little secret a secret.
Laura:By the thanks for saving me today or now I would have been to heaven till now.
We both laughed at this
Laura:By the way how is your hand?
Tessa:As you can see it's good. Well I'm sorry Laura for my previous acts and thank you so much for helping me that day.
She smiled at me
Laura:That's ok and I'm also sorry.
We both smiled at each other.
Laura:I just realized that we never properly introduced ourselves to each other.
Tessa:You're right. Hi I'm Tessa Jenner.
Laura:Hi I'm Lauren Amour. So... Friends?
Tessa:(I laughed) Friends.

From that day they both became alot normal with each other though their bickering never ends. After few months we gave our annual exam together and today is our giving day.
Maria:Tes! I passed.
Angelina:I also passed!
Tessa:Thank god all of us passed the exam.
Rose:I still can't believe we already spent 1 year together.
Laura:It feels like yesterday we were all fighting.
Maria:I just really hope next year will also go smoothly.
Rose:I hope too
But none of us were aware what was going to happen next year.
