Meant To Be

CHAPTER EIGHT

ERIC

So that you'll know that thier's always someone better than you, I said to Alison then I looked at her in her eyes, it was watery as if she wanted to cry. Thank you she said I'll remember it she took the paper and  Left.

I hope she doesn't cry, I can't let her come into my life, I know she felt what I felt yesterday, and too stop that we mustn't be friends or even close to each other, we must be like how we were when we first met when she hated me, I couldn't let her into my life, she would get hurt and be broken.

THE NEXT DAY

I entered class and it felt so empty Alison wasn't here, I sat down who knows maybe she's late.
The teacher started calling the roll call , ALISON MILLER the teacher called, oh looks like her mom finally got her middle name removed, she would've been happy not hearing her middle name, ALISON MILLER the teacher called again, absent a student said, weird she never been absent in her life another student said, yeah even why she was sick she still came to school another student said.

I hope I'm not the reason, the bell rang that was the end of today's lesson. I left the class to see kiara and maya standing outside, what's wrong I asked them, where's Alison? Thier both asked together. She's not here she didn't come today. WHAT they shouted something's wrong kiara said. Alison has never missed school, I remember her telling us that the day she's misses school, that day was the day she died maya said.
Let's go to her house Kiara said, I'll come with you I said, who took the nearest Bus and we were in front of her house by 15 minutes.

Kiara rang the bell while maya went up and down looking worried. A lady who looked exactly like her,  hi girls she said to Kiara and maya, hi they replied, oh eric maya said as she turned to me this is Jennifer miller ( she said pointing at her) Alison's mom , oh hi I said no wonder you look exactly like I said. I take that as a compliment then she replied.

Where's Alison maya asked, she's upstairs at her room, she wasn't really filling well today so I told her to stay at home, well more like forced her to stay at home she said shrugging her head, you know how she can be. Come In girls maya and kiara quickly ran upstairs to meet Alison, while I was standing in front of the door puzzled weather I should go and meet her or not, your not coming in? Alison's mom asked. No ma'am i replied I just wanted to know if she's alright since she didn't come to school in that case I'll get going.

I started walking , eric right she said weren't you the guy that was with Alison yesterday?she asked, yes ma'am I replied.

Wait for me even if you won't come in let me at least get you something to eat, no pro- as you elder I order you to stay then she left.

I waited for five minutes but she still wasn't back I wanted to go b- HEY ERIC I looked up to see Alison shouting from her room window.

Enjoy your victory because this will be the first and last time she said, I couldn't help but look at her then smiled, guess I'm seeing you on Monday then I said, oh trust me you'll see more more than me.
