CHAPTER 10.2

During a long break, Sheila and Nasturcja found me.

- You heard that Sofía stole Asher's things, and the director swept it under the rug because of her father. - Where do such rumors come from, who spreads them?

- NO. It's not like that.

- You defend her, she manipulated you too. I told you, Nasturcja, Sofía is smart, she will always work out.

- You're exaggerating now, I know how it was. I was in class at the time. - She seemed really surprised and concerned. But I prefer not to say it out loud. Someone is in a bad mood here.

- She separated me from my sister, Erich. Wait for her to put you two in conflict.

- You and Erich? You're friends.

- Sofía is a mantis in human skin. Even he fell for her. They were dating. Then she started to become friends with Mairi. And so I fell in love with him reciprocally. He broke up with Sofía and we almost dated together. However, I lost my sister because of this, and she was mortally offended at me for being with her friend's ex. And now, for Mairi to talk to me, I have to be only Erich's friend.

- I'm sorry, I didn't know.-Weirdly, Sofía has a different opinion.

- I advise you to be careful with her. - A person just gets stupid with them. I don't know what to think about all of them. I'm shutting myself out of the conversation. I've had enough.

Sheila gets the message. Immediately, a smile appears on her lips and she replies with all the larks. She turns to us.

- I have to go. - She's rushing like there's a fire somewhere.

- Do you really believe, Sofía? - My sister admonishes me with a scolding look.

- Just try again to project their problems onto us and then you will really have a reason to admonish me like this.

- You believe her!

- I advise you to finish this topic. - I get up and am about to move when my sister pulls me back to her.

-I'm sorry I didn't mean to make you angry. Just Sheila's problems all the time, I've soaked it all in. You're entitled to your opinion.

- I can have that half of a sandwich.

- Are you telling me I won't get yours? You glutton!

Erich appears by our side as I finish the last bite of the sandwich.

- Have you seen Sheila? He doesn't reply to my messages, we were supposed to eat together.

- You're late. She was with us for a while.

I gather for class, I have a class far away. Fortunately, I get to class before the bell rings, followed by James.

- You were somewhere. I was looking for you everywhere. - Asher asks his brother from the bench.

- I told you so.

- I'm supposed to believe that some chick hit on you. And fulfills your every wish. "Men's toilet on the third floor. Be quick.'' Come on, don't make me laugh. - I sit down on the benches.

- I'm surprised too.

- It's kind of hard to find her around you. I don't believe you. Tell me where you've been.

- There is no walking with me. I prefer to play the game. Either she does what I want or let her disappear from my sight. What did I ask her to do all this.

- Let my father insult me again for my approach to women.. I am a gentleman compared to you. At least she has a name.

- How is she... I forgot.

- Don't even ridicule yourself. How do you save it on your phone?

- Not by name.

- I'm scared. From the action?

- How did you know? - The blind hen got a grain. Really.

- Just kidding?

- She's one of those psychopaths! - He replies with pride.

- You idiot, we were supposed to stay away from them.

Erich, like me, listens to the triplets. He sends me a silent question. But I just shrug. Sofía appears at the same time as the teacher in the classroom. He has a book in his hand and is tapping it nervously with his nails. He seems to be clinging to the last strands of patience. There is a lion's wrinkle on her forehead between her eyebrows. Who could bring her to such a state, she had never even reacted this way to Erich's insults.
