The school of secrets

11

Outside

Maddie:
"I DON'T WANT TO TALK ROWAN!"

Rowan:
"Maddie please."

Maddie:
"What? what do you want to say after lying to me and keeping secrets?"

Rowan:
"Maddie, im sorry, i just wasn't ready to tell you yet."

Maddie:
"Oh... I'm sorry for yelling at Rowan."

Rowan:
"It's fine, I understand, I would be mad too but I just wasn't ready to tell you yet."

Maddie:
"I understand Rowan."

Rowan:
"Please don't be mad at me Maddie."

Maddie:
"I'm not mad at you anymore."

Rowan:
"Promise?"

Maddie;
"Pinky promise."

Maddie smiles as they do their pinky promise.

Maddie:
"Dinner?"

Rowan:
"Yes, of course I'm starving."

Maddie:
"Highly unlikely but okay."

They walk back to their dorm room together.

Dorm room
Maddie has dinner already, warms it back up as it got cold, and serves Rowan a plate before sitting down to eat.

Rowan:
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you about my dad sooner."

Maddie:
"It's okay, I understand why you don't want anyone else to know."

Rowan:
"Yeah I guess."

They finish dinner, help each other clean up and finish the night watching a movie and went to bed.

The next morning later Wednesday morning

Rowan:
"Maddie, time to wake up."

Maddie:
"Morning Rowan."

Rowan:
"Morning Maddie gets dressed and then comes down to eat. I made something."

Maddie:
"Ok."

That's what she did. She doesn't feel like getting out of bed, she feels sick and she doesn't know why. Maybe it is not that she is sick, maybe she is upset about something and she doesn't know what it is.

Maddie:
"So what did you make?"

Rowan:
"I made bacon egg sandwiches."

Maddie:
"Yum and also you did not burn them did you?"

Rowan:
"No I didn't now eat all up."

After they eat Maddie thinks that she might go on a walk to think about why is she sad she was almost out of the door when.

Rowan:
"And where do you think that you are going."

Maddie:
"For a walk can I please."

Rowan:
"Sure I am going to hang out with the football team so if you need me let me know."

Maddie:
"Ok bye."

Rowan:
"Bye."

Maddie started her walk and she noticed something. Tomorrow is visiting day. That's why she is so upset either parents get to go and visit their family or their family gets to come here. That's why she is upset her family gave her up and she hates that she doesn't have a family now. She runs back to her room and cries and cries till.

Rowan:
"MADDIE I AM BACK."

Maddie:
I have made him think that I am not crying. "I am in my room."

Rowan:
"Are you ok?"

Maddie:
"Yeah I am fine."

She is not fine, she is depressed and she doesn't know what to do and she doesn't want to tell Rowan even if she knows that she has to.
