On Thursday I woke up with a shock. I was having a nightmare.
I was kicking someone so hard in her belly that made her child die which wasn't born yet. There was so much blood.
Fuck that made me feel so sick.
I looked at the clock.
6:52 am.
I took my phone and checked it. I had no messages... Secretely, I was always waiting for Ally to text me. I mean Ally Reynolds. I miss her as fuck. But I also hoped Vincent would send me a message... But he never did. And neither does Dylan.
At 7 am I got out of bed and took a shower. I needed one. After that I got ready and had plenty of time left to polish my nails, so that's what I did. Whilst I was doing that, Ray had woken up and started to get ready too.
We got breakfast and left for school.
I had to think of that nightmare all the time.
" Clara, is something wrong? " Ray had asked.
" No, I'm fine " I had been lying.
" You sure? "
" No "

When we arrived at school I always had to think that this could be the last day that I see Vincent. The last day I could make it right.
Even though I knew where he lives.
" Clara, tell me what's wrong "
" Hmm "
She laid her hand on my shoulder: " I'll help you "
We were already in our classroom. Today we would receive our school results from the entire year and I was pretty nervous.
" I miss Vince, Ray "
" I understand that "
At 10 am someone entered our classroom with the school results. We got up and when she said we might sit down again, we did that. She called our name in alphabetic order.
" Clara Finley "
I sighed deeply, Ray tapped my back and I got up. I went to the lady and she handed over my results.
" Thank you, ma'am " I said and went back to my seat. I opened the folder and looked at the numbers. Some were written in red. Physics, History, Biology... Around the 45%. But stuff like French, English, Dutch and German... Around 70%. Maths, Chemics and other shit... Around 55%.
Much better than I had hoped for.
I was glad.
Ray received her results too. She had much better points than me. But she had studied much harder.
" Wow, Ray congrats! "
" Thanks ", she was proud, " you too, you had a hard time "
" Yeah but so had you "
