"He's really leaving?", a very devastated Rane asked.
"Yup.", I said bored.
"....and you're not sad? At all?"
I've been planning ( and crying ). It looks like I have to be all emotionless when I'm in the 'Ryder is leaving' convo . Maybe I'll just forget him .. sooner or later .. I hope.
If I prevent myself from crying over that jerk, I might feel better and maybe when we break up I'll be fine.
Wa-wa-wa-wa-WAIT !
Ryder didn't say we broke up, did he ? We're still a couple. But.. if he's leaving, how will our relationship even work out?
For a moment there, I had hope. I was kinda happy that we haven't broke up yet. A part of me didn't want him to break up with me, but a another part of me did. What? What's wrong with you ,other part ??
"umm.. Kherri ?"
"Yeah.", I say, hoping its not another question about Ryder.
"When is he going?", Rane asked timidly. I guessed she figured out that I'm not a fan of Ryder anymore. The problem is; I still like Ryder.
I opened my mouth to give an answer, but I closed it back. I thought hard. "I- I dunno.. He ... didn't mention anything. "
Great ! Now I have to find out when he's going. I shouldn't have acted like that ! He could be staying for a few more months ,for all I know ! And for the few months, I'll be living in an embarrassment !

At school, I asked my gang to find out when he's leaving. I didn't dare look at Ryder after what happened.
During lunch, Denise came running to me. I know it's Denise because she's wearing a striking pink headband. Her twin wore a bright yellow one. I hoped they didn't switch or anything. Its really hard to tell them apart.
She stopped right infront of me and looke to the right , left, back and behind me .
"Umm.. what - ?", I asked with one eyebrow raised in confusion.
"I'm your spy, remember?" , she whispered.
"Okay..."
"Shhhh!!"
I was taken by surprise by her 'Shhhhh!'
"Why are we whispering??"
"We're spies.. remember?"
"Technically, you're a spy and I'm your boss.", I joked.
Denise put one hand on her hip and looked at me with one eyebrow raised. "Seriously, Kherri ?"
"Ok Agent D, what have you found out?" , I said seriously.
"Alright boss. We've found out that the jerk is leaving in 2 days."
Yeahhh.. We code named Ryder 'jerk'.. Very immature, I know... but we didn't have anymore code name suggestions !
"TWO DAYS???" I shouted . I recovered myself and coughed . "Thank you Agent D. Your service is much appreciated." I smiled.
Denise smiled and skipped off to find her twin.

I avoided Ryder the whole day. I was even ready to hide when I see him. Luckily, the hiding was not needed.
