••••••••••••

I lean back in the seat across from the counsellor, nibbling on my bottom lip boredly.

It isn't even awkward silence, it's just the silence where we both know what needs to be said but won't take the step.

"How have you been Alexandra?"

Thank god, she took the step.

I sit up a little, clearing my throat. "Uh- I mean, I just re-took my chemistry exam." I chuckle nervously. "And, me and Kaia are going shopping later-"

"Mentally."

Jesus. I roll my eyes a little. "I mean.." I pick the skin around my nails. "Fine, I guess. Not worse if that's what your asking."

The school counsellor, Amber, hums. "This is your first week back at school since last summer." She states, as if I didn't know. "Do you think now that your back that you preferred online classes?"

I shrug softly. "I don't know. Maybe?" I say more as a question.

She adjusts her glasses. "How has socializing been?" She raises a brow, tapping her pen against her notebook.

I could roll my eyes at the mere stupidity of that question.

When has socializing ever been relatively simple or okay?

I sigh softly. "It's been.. okay." I sniff while looking down at my shoes. "Like always, I've just stuck to hanging out with Harrison and-"

"Kaia." She finishes, a small smile on her red lips.

I hum with a small smile of my own. "You know to much, Amber." She chuckles while shaking her head. "If I ever need an alibi I'll know who to go too." I wink playfully.

She sighs. "At this rate, you might just need to."

I raise a questioning brow.

"Principal Hickens mentioned the interaction between you and those two students on Monday, Alexandra."

Of course he did.

I rest my chin on my hand. "It was a misunderstanding." I shrug a bit. "And one that I won't be stupid enough to get into ever again."

She hums. "Where did that anger stem from, miss Fernsby?" She tilts her head.

My fists ball. "I'm not angry." I sigh, running a hand down my face. "Like I said, it was a small slip in my conscience. And it won't happen again."

The look of sympathy on her face says enough. "Alexandra.. I fear that your struggles are beyond me."

What?
