8. I gotta make things right

I'm back!!! Enjoy :)

Recap:

"I'm serious. In fact please stay away from us for now." Alex said.

"Are you kidding me?" I snapped.

How could he seriously say that? He was the one who came to me first. I mean, who was the one that came to my window. Alex.

"Helena. Please." Alex gave me that please-listen-to-me look.

"Fine. Whatever. Screw you." I turned and walked away, trying to hold my tears before it stained my cheeks. 

*****

In this argument, Sabrina was forced to take the blame. And no, not that she was threaten or anything. She's assumed to be at fault and not me which I'm pretty sure it's because I'm Harry's sister.

We are known as the perfect family so everyone wants to be on our good side. Well, maybe most of them.

And that's one of the perks of having the perfect family.

Sabrina got labelled things such as 'the girl with attitude', and 'bitch'. As if that's not bad enough, they had to spread rumors about her.

Now she's the whore because apparently she was seen on a compromising position at a party. Like I said, those are just rumors.

Since Harry sits with his football and cheerleader buddies at lunch, it means that the rumors and the name-calling are were hurtful and spread like wildfire.

I, on the other hand, got sympathy from the whole student population. Harry's cheerleader friends were 'comforting' me and saying that I shouldn't have treated Sabrina with kindness and blah blah blah.

It's seriously not helping when they tried comforting me that it's not my fault and at the same time bullying Sabrina.

The only time they stopped bullying is when Alex is there. Which is sickening.

And trying to convince them to stop bullying seems to have no effect on them since they claim as making Sabrina learn her lesson for going against me.

It makes me feel really bad about the whole argument.

*****

I made my way to Sam's diner, where I used to have a part-time job as a waitress.

I figured I could have a  milkshake right now... to plot ways on stopping the whole bullying thing.

I stepped inside the diner. I'm glad the diner is almost deserted... it helps me plot my plan.

I went straight towards the cashier.

"Welcome to Sam's. How may I help you?" The girl greeted.

I looked up.

"Sabrina? You work here?" I asked.

"How may I help you?" She ignored my question.

"Sabrina-"

"Do you need more time to decide?" She ignored me.

"Look I just wanna talk-"

"And I'm working so I can't talk to you." Her voice toned and clipped.

"And as far as I know you need to be friendly towards customers which also means having a conversation with them." I smirked when she was speechless.

"Well there are customers here and I'm busy." She wipes the counter.

I look scanned the diner. There's only Kim and Zac, a cheerleader and a soccer player from school.
