Battleground of the hostel

Chapter 3

" What?!" Sasha got up from the bed as I broke the news to her.
" They think that's the best punishment they can give me".
" That's nonsense". Sasha said pacing around my room
" Yeah, I know".
" No you don't Dustin finally notices you and then bam you are going to a different school and a hostel for a matter". I actually felt so mad that I wouldn't be able to see Dustin in the school halls anymore.
I picked up a pillow and clutched it to my chest.
" It's not a big deal". I said trying to hide the disappointment.
" Not a big deal?". Sasha said looking at me .
" Girl what about the happy ending in all the highschool movies we usually see".
" My life never had a good start let alone a happy ending, maybe love doesn't exist in my world" .
" No girl trash that, destroy that world and create a new world because in your world love will exist".
I wanted to remind Sasha that I grew up seeing love from a different lense there is no way that I can believe in such things after looking at my parents but I just decided to just stare outside the window.
" Look I get it your parents don't have the fairytale story and all the Disney love stories we saw on our screens while we were young but that is their love, you are a different person entirely and you standing here is a proof of love existing ". I guess Sasha knew what exactly was on my mind I mean she will always know what I'm thinking of.
" You're saying nonsense, how can I be a proof of their love?".
" I don't know how to explain it to you but that's the actual truth".
We both remained silent after the last statement Sasha made and that made me uncomfortable and my brain started running like a computer for us to forget about my miserable life.
" Hey since you're leaving let's just go through the princess chronicles ".
I just smiled at what she said the princess chronicles was our friendship album we both had a copy of it so that we can always cherish our friendship, we even planned on getting married the same day to make the album more special.
" Okay ". I said smiling and went to my cupboard and there it was a big blue book designed with a touch of purple and pink with some golden star stickers and butterfly stickers all over and each page decorated beautifully. As I carried the book I remembered how the idea came up and also how once every month we will add new pictures to it together designing the new pages that's our tradition.
After some few hours reminiscing Sasha spoke up
" What about the blog we made together what are we going to do about it?". I completely forgot about it, thank God Sasha reminded me, I don't know what I'll do without her.
I sat there on the bed thinking what exactly to do and then i knew exactly what we were going to do.
" Okay hear me out since I'll be going to the hostel tomorrow let's have a sleepover one last time and also do out traditional dance, in short we are just going to do a send forth for me". I said smiling from ear to ear knowing that it's a great plan and even Sasha loved the idea but me and Sasha later synced in changing our facial expressions.
" Do you think your mom will allow me to have a sleepover with you after what happened?". Sasha said in a low tone as if my mom was eavesdropping on our conversation outside.
I knew that this will be a difficult task with my mom but with my dad it will be a success.
" She's not the only parent I have, we can always ask my dad".
My dad later agreed to let Sasha have a sleepover with me and I was so excited to do our traditional dance, we only do it during important events we first created it when we were seven and decided that we should enter a dance show and we decided to use the song Umbrella by Rhianna and we still use the song just that as we grow up we modify the dance moves.
The sleepover was so fun we chatted made each other's hair stuffed food in our mouths and faces so I later went to clean up my face and when I stepped out of the washroom I was so shocked at the figure I saw standing in front of me, I was ready to faint right there on the spot, it was so unreal and no one would have believed me if I told them about it.
It was no other than DUSTIN TREVORRR!!!
OH MY GOD HE JUST CAME INTO MY ROOM.... THROUGH THE WINDOW.
" Dustin?". My brain finally instructed me to acknowledge his presence . He just came into the room and walked up towards me before you know it he dragged me and I felt his soft lips pressing hard against mine I tried to pull away but he even pulled me closer and his lips still left on mine a bit harder this time if not for the fact that I've been waiting for this day I would have died the moment he grabbed me. He finally stepped back with some of his brown lustrous hair falling in front of his flawless face he later bit his lower lip and looked a bit nervous, Sasha just stood there in awe like she has just seen dinosaurs.
" Why didn't you tell me that you were leaving?". Dustin finally spoke up and looked at me as if he just lost his puppy.
" I thought that". I didn't know what to say I mean I thought he wouldn't care that much about me or anything else going on in my life since he has the attention of the entire world.
" What?". Dustin asked me holding my hands and looking at me.
" I don't know, I thought that it wouldn't matter to you". I finally spoke up, I mean yes I always wanted to be with him but I don't think that I'll ever matter to him.
He didn't say anything else he just hugged me and I was lost in his arms for a moment I wanted to build a house in arms and live there forever and he whispered in my ear.
" You matter to me".  And he kisses my forehead.
He later left the room carefully climbing his way down to earth through the window.
I just kept my hands on my chest and carefully listen to the heartbeat and Sasha just stood in front of me with this smile on her face.
" Ouuuu someone got kissed by her prince charming". Sasha said in a singing voice.
" Sasha keep it down do you want my parents to hear this". I said scolding Sasha.
" Well unfortunately the true love's kiss didn't melt your frozen heart". Sasha said throwing a hiss.
I just rolled my eyes and ignored what she said and threw a pillow at her.
" You can't do that to me". Sasha protested
" Why?". I said laughing.
" Cause it's not good for the baby". Sasha said and she looked serious. I can't believe it, I just stood there in shock.
" Who is the father?". I asked her.
She took a pillow and hit my head .
" You silly, I am the baby". Sasha said .
I just laughed at her and her silly little joke.
" How did Dustin know that I was going to another school?". I said placing my hands on my hips and looking at Sasha.
" I don't know news travel quickly and Dustin is very interested in you so he has his ways".
" Yeah he has his spy which is my best friend". I said poking Sasha at the sides.
" You could have told me that he was coming I wouldn't have worn this bunny pyjamas".
" I feel offended we are matching and I see this pyjamas as the best". Sasha said defending herself.
" By the way you should check your pyjama pocket". Sasha said smiling.
I was so confused at this point I just shoved my hands into my pockets and found a note that was folded and I opened it. It was Dustin's handwriting, I don't know how much of him I could take but I might soon be rolled into the ICU because of him.
To my rockstar
You are my rock and fountain of my love
And a star that shines bright in my dark life
I don't know if this is cruddy but
All I really want to say is that I want to be in
Your heart from now on
I will really like it if Ruby Hopkins
Will make me a lucky guy and be the girlfriend
Of Dustin Trevor.
I wanted to scream so loudly but I contained it and held the letter that Dustin wrote for me with his hands.
" Congrats girl you've got yourself a Dustin Trevor". Sasha said smiling at me as she held her phone in her hands to take a picture of me. My happiness that I couldn't contain later fades away when I remembered that I'll be going to an entirely different school from him.
" Yeah but it's such a shame that I'll be leaving".
" I totally forgot about that". Sasha's face immediately changed and we were both moody for sometime and just decided to watch a movie together and then Sasha paused the movie on the laptop.
" Do you hate sea food so much that you had to pause it when they brought it for them to celebrate?". I protested cause I was really getting to enjoy the movie.
" Hear me out I have an idea". Sasha said smiling
" Okay".
Sasha carefully explained to me and then the next morning it was family devotion and of course Sasha will be there she's like family to me and my dad.
" Okay Ruby dress up and get prepared you will be dropped off in Elmendae High anytime soon". My mom said as my dad started packing my stuffs to the car
" I want to call a truce". I said looking at my mom.
" What truce?". My mom said intrigued by my boldness but she probably figured out that one of the reasons is because of Sasha.
" I don't want to go the hostel but you want me to stay there right?".
" Yes as a form of punishment". My mom said.
" Well I want to say that you should give me this semester to prove myself ".
" How exactly do you want to prove yourself?". My mom said.
" Well one of the reasons you are sending me to a hostel is because you want me to stay away from Sasha cause you think I can't do things by myself and that she's a bad influence ".
" That's not it but go on". My mom felt uneasy, she never wanted to admit that she's a racist but she can't hide the true nature of her heart from me.
" If I'm able to pull off a good dance by myself with marks awarded to me in that school then I'll leave Elmendae High the next semester ".
" So what if you don't have good grades from your dance". My mom said confidently, I took a deep breath in and made this tough decision.
" Then I'll stay in Elmendae High until I graduate ". My mom just smiled at me and later agreed to it.
So right now I'm on a five hours and thirty one minute drive to Norway .
Going to see new faces, new drama, new teachers and still the same old subjects to hate like history or maths.
