"Hey! Back here! " She screamed as she rushed to a girl in front of her by a tree covered with frost. It looked like silver.

Reaching out to her she put her hand on the shoulder of the girl who was facing towards the frozen lake. "Girl! No way! You were here?! " She said panting as she ran a bit too fast.

The other girl flipped back face-to-face to see who it was, as she screamed in astonishment with wide eyes and hands covering her mouth, "JENNA?! HOW?!! When did you come back?! I thought you were in Paris?!! ", too excited to meet her old friend.

" Yes! Yes it's me! Actually, I came back yesterday and I did NOT think of finding you here! I mean this is a lake and all. But near an ice rink? Not your type I say. " She exclaimed.

"Well, Yeah. I know. But I decided to give new things a try and here I am! " The other girl replied with a pleasant expression on her face smiling. "But what are you doing here? " She asked back.

Jenna replied, " Oh! Saw a new place. Thought it was interesting to wonder about. And came here. " She answered.

"Hm..... Typical Jenna! " She marked.

Jenna pouted at her as the girl started laughing.

The girl was no one else, but me. It was such a happy moment to meet my friend again. I can't even express that in words.

Hello, everyone! I'm Ephyr Brooks, and my best friend is Jenna. We have been friends since childhood and I cherish her friendship a lot. I knew I can trust her with anything, or so I thought........

Well, this is how my story goes......

We both entered the ice rink along with the fear of falling on ice repeatedly as I have always been really clumsy. But that still doesn't change the fact that I will be trying it for sure!

"So..... Have you ever tried ice skating before? " Jenna asked looking at me as we both walked in.

" A few times actually, but I always fell and never really managed to get on it without falling! " I remarked with embarrassment.

"Hey!...... It's ok y'know. We are best friend after all! You can trust me. I'll teach you well! " She said trying to make me feel relieved.

I was already good, so, that didn't really mean anything to me, but I always appreciated those little cares of her for me as no one really did that to me before, and, I just loved the feeling.

"Ok, so. Hold my hands. I will enter first, and then you can enter with me. Ok? " Jenna asked me.

I said, " Ok. Sure! ", as I followed behind her. We both had our ice skates on already and so, we entered in. She was already a pro in ice skating, and me? I was a literal noob. But I had her! So no worries!

We both got in with my hands holding her tightly as my legs were trembling. She took a step in and then it was my turn. I was already really scared. But, building up some courage in me, I entered along.

Just as I did, I was about to fall, but she caught me and said, " Careful! The ice is really slippery! " I nodded and got up. As we both started to get in the middle of the ice rink,  someone skated past through us in full speed and we both fell down. Partially, it was my fault we BOTH fell; I was holding her hands after all. But the actual fault? It was the persons who went right past through us and made us collapse on the ground.

The real question was, Who is that person, and why did they do that?

Later, I found out.......
