Chapter Eleven: Detention Assignment
Angelina P.O.V
I walked into homeroom this morning, early two days in a row. Just as I sat down my phone went off, I pulled it out quickly trying to Ssh it until I saw it was a call from my dad, the first I’d got since he left 2 weeks ago.
“Sorry miss I have to take this it’s important” I said before hurrying out the room. I heard the class chuckle behind me; it weren’t that funny was it?
“Hello” I answered.
“Hey Lina, how’s it going?” He asked. I sobbed at the sound of his voice I missed him.
“I miss you daddy, its going fine I’m getting better, I’ve stopped cutting” I lied, I glanced down at my healing scars.
“That’s good, have you thrown away the blade remember the steps the psychiatrist told you to take, you’re never fully healed until you can live without the blade for a while”
“Okay, I don’t think I can yet, I still feel like I need it there, maybe in a couple days, when everything’s all sorted with my friends”
“Why what’s happened?” he asked immediately alert.
“Nothing yet, he’s just keeping secrets and I’m coming between him and his friends, when I’m through all that, I’ll throw it away, he’s actually helping me get better”
“Really what’s his name?”
At that point I saw him walking down the corridor hand in hand with the brunette girl and on his other side was Josh. I watched them; I just realized she was quiet pretty, way prettier than me. I turned green with jealousy. Not literally but inside I did.
Wait why was I jealous? Was it because his friends preferred her over me? Was it because...no it couldn’t be, forget that. She smirked at me before sticking her tongue down Zaine’s throat. I watched disgusted.
“Angelina, Lina are you there?” My dad called from the phone but I wasn’t listening.
Zaine pulled back and bumped fists with Josh, “Later man” he said, before groping her bum and letting her pull him into homeroom, the whole time he ignored me. When he was gone I turned to see Josh grinning at me.
He stepped closer to me putting his mouth next to my ear “Bro’s before Hoe’s remember that” he hissed walking away. I stared after him; I placed the phone back to my ear.
