"-yeah, so I asked him to pass me the bread and he threw it. Unfortunately it landed right on Jansons head when he was passing the kitchen. I'm telling you this man got some bad luck."

I shouldn't have stuffed the whole spoonful of soup into my mouth because now I was nearly choking on it.

Drew got a thing for making jokes while others were still eating. In fact it was the time he did the most jokes.

When we were having meals in the dining hall we always had one guard watching us and on fridays it often was Drew.

Fridays were always my favourites.

"Drew, stop it!" Kiara who just drank water had a hard time keeping it in her mouth.

Harriet and him were laughing at her. I even tried to laugh louder just to see Kiara spit the water all over the table. It would be a great memory to annoy her with.

Unfortunately she swallowed it and gave the guard a playful slap on the arm.

"Ah goddamnit Son!"

A loud voice from a few tables down the hall grabbed my attention. Especially after hearing my friends name. Well, her nickname.

"You ruined my skirt!" I recognised Annas voice, a slightly older girl with bad temper "I bet you did that on purpose."

She was standing next to the bench she just jumped off, brown liquid seeking from her white skirt. Sonya was sitting opposite her with a shocked expression and her right arm outstretched to grab the soup bowl.

I could sense her discomfort especially when the whole room went quiet, watching the scene in front of them.

Without even noticing I had left my seat and was now walking towards them.

"I didn't, I swear!"

"You keep destroying things! And then all the crying and complaining about your poor brother because he doesn't visit you as often as you want too. You're like a little child."

My hands were shaking in anger and I felt the urge to shove that bitch down the stairs.

I could see that Sonya was on the verge of tears. She hated being yelled at.

And I hated when someone yelled at her.

"Let me tell you something, Sonya, we all wish we had someone left! My family is dead."

"Hey, fuck off Anna!" I finally got to them and stood next to my friend, angrily facing the older girl. "Your family situation isn't Sonyas fault and neither are your anger issues."

"She ruins everything!"

"Sure." I scoffed. "Sonya here-" I point at the blond girl "-killed your parents. She also put you here. Let's not forget that she created the flare and scorched the world. We have better problems than your fucking skirt! Get. Over. Yourself."

She sent me a furious glare but didn't say anything else. Without looking back she stomped out of the hall, two other girl following her quickly.

Now Drew finally arrived next to us too and laid a calming hand on both mine and Sonyas shoulder.

I didn't know why he would feel the need to make me feel better but alright.

I glanced to my side and found Sonya looking at me with big eyes. I gave her a crooked half smile and she wrapped her arms around me.

"Thank you, Charlie."

"Anytime. Anna's a bitch sometimes."

She chuckled into my neck.
