Clueless

Chapter 9

Hallway, outside the classroom

There might be a crowd at the classroom, but Rachel and Aaron are alone outside the classroom, at the corner of the door.

Rachel said: "This doesn't look good Aaron, I think we went too far."

Aaron said: "This doesn't look good, our plan might fail."

"What do we do?"

"We need to strike now."

"Now? But in this situation-"

"Rachel, we need to strike now! I know the situation doesn't look good, but we need to strike now while Lindsay is still shocked and depressed."

"If you say so."

"Plus, if we don't, things would start to stirring up in Lindsay's mind, then she would realize what's happening, we need to strike now."

"But what if it fails?"

"The failing percentage would rise the sooner we strike, time is on our hands, we can't lose time, we have to act now."

Inside the classroom

They both entered the classroom.

Rachel sees Lindsay kneeling down in the floor, hurted in agony, pain, and blame for herself.

Rachel said: "Lindsay."

Lindsay said: "Not now."

Rachel followed her command and left her.

Hallway, outside the classroom

Rachel said: "See, I told you, she's still in rage, how can I possibly compete with her while she's still in her powerful furious state."

Aaron said: "Fine, but if this plan fails, it's your fault."

"Okay then."

"But when do you urge striking?"

"Somewhere, a bit later."

Inside the classroom

The day was left with surprise, investigation, depression, mystery, and all.

Though the day must go on, so the teachers tried not to be all emotional and distracted by the incident. It was very awkward for the teachers. They wouldn't even dare mention the name Jaime.

Lindsay was so sad, she kept blaming herself for everything, she thought to herself if only she didn't leave her in the classroom and even tried bothering her, she could have been saved.

Saturday at the funeral

Everyone was in the cemetery of the place where Jamie was buried. Everybody was there, her family members, relatives, teachers, and even classmates.

The priest was preaching, everyone's head was down, sad and miserable.

Lindsay was weeping, wiping off her tears with her bare hands, blowing her nose and wiping it with her tissue as she listened to the priest.

Everyone was either sad or crying. Jaime's parents were crying while the others were looking down, sad, and listening.

The priest said, formally: "She disses young, but let us not forget-"

-1 hour later-

After the mourning was finish, it was just her parents left, with some relatives, and surprisingly Lindsay.

Lindsay was about to walk away, when she suddenly remembers a flashback.

She calls down, but barely stopped herself from completely crashing down the grassy floor with her arms.
