Wild Secrets

13 - BACK HOME

It's been days since my confrontation with Mrs. Green and Zac. Christmas is already approaching. The next thing I know is i'm going to meet his whole family and confront them. I'm in Green's death list probably. Green hates me and I know it. When I stopped hanging out at Green's office, i'm always alone every lunch. It looks like my friends had forgotten me. I tried to approach them.

"Oh you're back! I'm sorry but i'm eating with my girlies, Pat and Zac are with their teammates and so does Jake and of course Mary's joining him. I'm sorry but it looks like there's no us anymore" She explained. What happened? Is it all because of me? At first, she's going to ask me to eat with her girls but she didn't. Who am I to join the cheering team during lunch? I thought. Lyla seems to lose her interest in me except in class. She only approaches me in class and so does Patrick and Jake. They're the only stable friends I have but they're always busy during lunch. I wondered what happened. I miss having friends. I don't even belong here which means I deserve to be alone, I thought.

I decided to eat during lunch under the tree in the field. It's relaxing there. I used to this with my old friend back in my old school. I miss them already. I realized I had stopped thinking about them when I got here. My mind is occupied and I never let them get in.

I remembered when my friend, Carol tossed a ball from the bench and anyone who got that ball will be ask by her for her a date. Well, Carol have some serious guts for asking a guy out. I thought. I remembered when i'm really close with the varsity player of the soccer and they let me join them. "It's football" Kenz corrected me. I never called that sport football actually. It's just the same. I remembered when Kenz and I are having a picnic under a tree while watching the guys play then his coach caught him and he had to run fifty times around the oval. "It's worth it" he said. I also remembered when we're doing a group project under a tree then suddenly, it rained. Our works were soaking wet when we passed it. We fail and we got to do extra work. Lesson learned, never listen to weather forecast. They're the nicest people I know. Maybe if you became truthful to them, you might make some serious friends. My conscience told me. She's right. I was never truthful to them but I will never be. I had to stay like this. It's the only way to get back to my mom and after all of these, i'm going to leave and forget everything because i'm back to being a Wilder. These secrecy will be over. No more Shantel Flinn.

I went home after a stressing day. Luckily, Raphael and Carl visited me. I'm so happy that I still got them. Raphael told me that they're here because they want to pick me up for DANY practice. A famous dancer's going to visit us today.

We went to DANY and apparently, no one's coming to teach us today. Coach and the director are away. They needed to fix something according to the team head, Mikee.

"Hey! Why don't we do a showdown?" Mikee suggested. Everyone became excited. I just continued sitting on the floor with Raphael beside me. I noticed that Bea was there but Raphael was here with me.

"Hey Bea's there oh" I said. She might get jealous.

"Hey! Get one" Mikee was talking to us. She's referring to a bowl full of papers inside. We stood up to get one. We decided to check it immediately.

"1"

"2" it looks like we have different numbers. Mikee announced that people who got 1 stay beside her.

"So here how it's done. My playlist with almost 300 songs will be shuffled and every group must dance what's assigned for them. The opponent's going to switch the song once" Mikee announced.

Mikee and Raphael did a bit of rock, paper, scissors to determined who's going first. Apparently Raphael lost.

We Can't Stop by Miley Cyrus.
