End Time Cores

C44, Deep dark secret uncovered

Three days to Graduation.
[After they left the mall]

They were waiting outside, hoping to catch a ride home.

"This long blue gown is so gonna look good on you. I could lend you a sliver bracelet and stilettos to go with it." Hayley was saying playfully

"Yah, and for the sixth time, sure, thanks, I know." Aimy said tiredly.

"Just wanted to make sure you got the idea." Hayley added.
"So, see you guys at 6." She questioned.

"Sure." They both chorused.

************************************

7pm
In the church...

The grace was shared and everyone began leaving one after the other.

Aimy and her friends as usual stayed to clean up. They were having little chats while they arranged.

"So, Harry, how do you manage to sneak out of home to this place every Thursdays." Emer asked curiously.

"Well, I just take an excuse. They don't have to know where to." Harry replied.

"Hmm, true." Emer said thoughtfully.

"How about you?" He asked, but got intruded by Patricia who suddenly bursts in from outside.

"Emer!" She yelled, racing towards her

"What?" Emer replied anxiously

"I knew I'd find you here. Your mom came over to my place." She said

"She did?" Emer questioned in shock.

"Why did your mom go to her place?" Harry asked confusingly

"Well, m-y excuse is a lie of going to Patricia's for a study section, then come here instead." She explained.

"Oh!" Harry said in realization.

"So, what did you tell her?" Emer asked.

"Told her the truth." She replied.

"What?!" Emer yelled, getting all their attention.

"You don't really believe that, do you?" Patricia added with a smirk.
"I told her you left some seconds before she came."

"Fwee." She sighed in relief.
"Thanks." She added gratefully.

"You've gotta leave now, you know that. You should get home before she does or she might become suspicious." Patricia warns.

"You're right." Emer agreed.
"Bye guys." She yelled running off to the entrance.

"Bye." They all responded, excluding Tricia and Harry.

"See yah." Tricia said in a flirting manner to Harry,
"I wonder what someone as cool as you would be doing in a place like this." She thought, she rolled her eyes at the others, then left.

"I should leave too. It's getting pretty late, and I didn't tell my mom I'd be coming since she wasn't home." Aimy explained.

"Your house is far off from here than ours, you should go." Hayley supported.

"Yah." Vicky added.

Then Aimy grabbed her bag, and began heading towards the exit.

"I gotta go too, before my brother gets suspicious." Harry said, running to catch up with Aimy.

"He de-finitely has a crush on Aimy." Vicky said confusingly.

"Hopefully it's an healthy one." Hayley replied.
