The rest of the day past by quickly. I was busy completing my journal for the practicles when there was a knock on my door. It was Vanessa.
"Hey thought you wouldn't like to come here!" I said smiling at her.
"Ya I still don't like this place,but I came to discuss important things with you"
"As in?"
"Mr quentine's murder"
There was silence. Finally I spoke up.
"Can't we just avoid it?"I asked her.
"No"
"Ok. say what you wanna say and let the words fall out......." I said singing to her 'brave' which was her favourite song.
"Ya ya no time for jokes now I'm serious"
"Ok. Spit it out"
"It was your sister right?"
"No"
"Admit the crap Valonia" she said almost disgusted.
"It wasn't her. I've got proof"
She stared at me blankly for about 5 minutes.
"Then who did it?"
"I don't know"
"Oh no......"she said and began crying.
"Hey what's wrong?" I said trying to calm her.
"Nothing"
"You know that you can't hide anything from me"
"Mr Quentine was ....my ......uncle"
"What?! Why didn't you tell me"
"What good would it have been if I had told you about it?"
I was quite.
"This is all your fault. You shouldn't have told me you were stole and I would not have interfeared with you and this would not have happened" she said crying.
I was quite hurt by her words so I didn't say anything. Just then Carl came and knocked on my door.
"Can I come in?" He asked. Vanessa immediatly wiped her tears.
"Yes"
"Umm its dinner...hey why are you crying?" He asked vanessa.
"Nothing. Bye valonia,meet you tomorrow"
"Bye" and she went out of my room.
"Aren't you coming for dinner?"
"No I ain't hungry,you carry on"
"I think you should seriously have something or your brain will not work"
"No its Ok"
"Please,for me" saying this he offered me his hand. I put my hand in his and got up.
"Ok then let's go" I said with a smile.
He is the only soul with whom im really happy and now since vanessa is upset she won't talk to me but he is really caring....cute....and....i don't know what else to say.Seems like I have to tell Carl that I like him after all.
