Chess: The Next Move

Chapter 1: Sorry for the lie

Hey guys. Jen Nakpil here. Yeah, sorry if I told y'all there wouldn't be a sequel. There is. I just couldn't think of how to write my college life because to be fairly honest, it was as boring as sitting in an office with a computer and un amusing atmosphere. Yes, there was a Tyler Hoechlin fangirl who Marissa hated. Yes, Cherry often baked pies. Yes, I was a sorority president. But other than that, it was boring asf.

But anyways, after the death of almost every guy I knew, my life was filled with females. Literally, everywhere I go, very little thing I do, my girls will be there. Beatriz, who killed the boys, eventually made up with us and now she lives in Miami with a very popular hot dog cart market.

They say one survived. Maybe.

Audrey and Morgan are my assistants in the construction site. I'm the architect. They're my lunch buyers.

Cherry left the orphanage job and is now a stand up comedian and earns a lot of money each day.

Marissa's schedule as a cop has changed a little. She gets to spend time with Tyler every other day. Now that we know who her mystery guy is, she's not afraid to show him off.

Bea Bianca is a really great tattoo artist. Yes, she's still dating Calum Hood. She gives us and him great tattoos.

Tyler Hoechlin does what he does.

I'm Marissa's best friend and I love her, but literally I'm jealous of her and Tyler! Like jeez, I miss her! I only see her like once or twice a week.

Well, to take up space for this first chapter, I'm gonna tell you how all of us each messed up in JJ's, Nicco's,Rod's, Jack's, Tristan's, Dad's, Mr. Maristella's, and Travis' funeral. Flashback time!

JJ's funeral

So, I made a speech because I'm the girl he loved.

"Friends. Family. Whoever else that's here because they have nothing better to do, we're gathered here to bury the life of my first love. I know, his last few days on Earth I hated him. I also hated him for the 8 years we've been apart, but.. Whatever. You can't blame me for being upset that he lied to me about living here illegally and he tried to use me and my money to get himself illegal citizenship and how 8 years later he comes back saying he wants me back like hell no--"

"Jen, this is a funeral, not a consultation." Audrey said.

I cleared my throat.

"Right. So anyways, JJ, if you can hear me from that Jack in the Box drive through in the sky, I hope you know that until now it is unknown for me if I forgive or hate your stupid lying ass. Rest in peace liar. Amen."

I grabbed my paper and walked away and sat back down in my seat.

Nicco's funeral
Marissa decided to make a speech since she was Nicco's most loyal customer (buying stuff everyday).

"Nicco was a really great friend. He used to always sell me his best products. Cocaine. Ecstacy. Great smelling shampoo. You name it. He was basically our free store. He, was a hero. Yes, I'm a cop. I don't do drugs anymore, but just looking at him reminds me of the good old days. Why'd you have to die, dude? You could've defended yourself? And why in the girls locker room? Why did you go in there? Nothing's excited there! Like jeez! "

Marissa started yelling at through the microphone so we had to take it away from her.

Rod's Funeral
We each put a black rose on his coffin since he loves black roses. Well, LOVED.

We also each whispered something we never told him.

Cherry: Rod, I'm so sorry I killed you

Marissa: rest in peace. At least you died famous

Bea Bianca: I could've given you concert tickets, but rest in peace pal

Audrey: I don't know you. The only thing I know about you is that cherry killed you.

Morgan: who are you? Oh, and sorry for your death. It really sucks, doesn't it?

Me: just so you know I took some of your money.

We're not good friends.

Jack and Tristan

Their funerals weren't so bad.

Morgan: I'm not really good at speeches... I love Jack! Jack was the best hubby ever! He always will be. He always taught me new words and at least 13 states. At first, I really thought there were only 13 states. He taught me how to ride an exercise bike without being afraid of falling. He taught me life. Now, who else is gonna do that? Audrey helps too, but i really love when Jack does it. Jack is my babe. Oh and Tristan, didn't really talk to him sorry."

Audrey said,"Tristan and I didn't really have chemistry, but his death brought us closer. I think."

Dad's funeral was normal. Nothing special.

Mr. Maristella's funeral

This was probably one of the saddest (in a funny way) funerals I've been to.

"Mr. Maristella was the best teacher ever. He was my favorite dude to go to every day. He was the only teacher who understood my problems. Now I have to take care of his daughter. It sucks because he's not here,but hey being a mother is fun! But anyways, Mr. Maristella you will be missed." That was my speech.

Cherry walked up to his coffin and cried like there was no tomorrow.

"YOURE MY ALL TIME FAVORITE TEACHER!" She said as she cried.

She was hugging the coffin. She was rocking the coffin back and forth (that's how she hugs). The coffin eventually fell to the floor.

Everybody tried their best to lift it back up but it was so damn hard because Mr. Maristella was heavy! Like, oh shit!

But anyways, other than that, my life has been okay.
