Deceived

December

CHAPTER 6

Nothing much happened in December, 2012. I was looking forward to celebrate Christmas with my family.

I went to church that day with my parents. It was Christmas Eve. I was inside the church and then I got a text.

"Get out from church"

It was Bryan. He told me to get out from church. I couldn't do that though. So I replied back,

"I can't. It's church time, we can't go out"

"El. Just try. Don't you wanna meet me?"

As I thought about it, I really wanted to meet him. So I got off from my seat and went outside the church.

There were many people at church. I couldn't find him and then...

I saw him. I saw Bryan. He was standing just a feet away from where I was searching him. He was wearing this simple black jeans and a white shirt. He looked great. "Cute" I thought. There he was, Bryan. That fun, interesting, mysterious and hot guy... waiting.

As I walked towards him, I saw this familiar guy beside him. It was... Jonah. He was there too. I was surprised to see him there. He had been missing for a month and now suddenly he showed up. I was confused. Did Bryan asked me to get out from church just to meet that jerk-liar-I-will-call-you-later-but-never-did guy.

"What is Jonah doing here?" I thought to myself. I mean Jonas was not really that church kind of person. He rarely went to church but if you see him at church, he's not really going to church, he just went there to meet up with his bad influence friends.

Bad influence I said? Yes. Bryan was part of it but I was too stupid to realize. I thought he was the nice one and innocent but I was wrong.

Flashbacks...

"Hey El" Bryan waved at me.

"Hey" I waved back.

Ohmygosh. I had to be there with Bryan and Jonah. I wanted to ask Jonah what happened to him and why didn't he called me but I couldn't. I was too nice to him.

"Hey Ellie. You're here too? Jonah said. He acted like he didn't do anything wrong. He didn't called me like he said he would. That pathetic liar.

"Nope" Well duh Jonah. You saw me there standing and talking with you guys and you're asking me this obvious question? How lame.

Jonah giggled."Yeah. Obviously"

I didn't know why I felt so annoyed by him that moment. I wanted to run away from him. Jonah was so weird. Like really weird. That weird haircut of his and his weird voice. I actually realized... I started to lose feelings for him. It almost like I don't like him anymore. Maybe it was because of Bryan talked to me everyday more than he talked to me everyday?

I heard the church was about to start so I said, "I better get inside. Nice seeing you guys"

Jonah and Bryan nodded.

"Bye" Jonah said.

"Bye El" Bryan said.

Two guys all at once. I feel uncomfortable. I need to get out from there. I entered the church and sat at the place that I sat before.

December...
