Walk Out On

Chapter 8: "Jealousy"

"Real relationship doesn't mean no fight. We fight, but after that we forgive each other and start loving each other again".

I was fumbling with the hem of my dress made out of lace material, while the inner clothing is made of silk. Almost up to knee length and can be addressed as a 'classy' dress. Not every day, you get to wear a gorgeous dress to a grand party within your age group. Mainly, it's not out whether other kids of your age are able to go, it whether I could go. Alas! The day has come, where I am able to go to a party with a few rules involved.

"Gala-ball", another way of saying a fancy get-together, our school holds every year. And being it tonight, I am quite excited as I am able to go with extra four guests. And I am able to bring Vicky along with me. A knock on the room door, took me out of my unconscious mind talk with myself.

Vicky stood beside the door, with a smile on her face. She wore a white silk dress reaching her knees. Being it silk, it was flowing around her and shaping her just right. Her hair tied into a neat bun. And simplicity with the dress was matched with a dazzling necklace.

"You look pretty, Sara" Vicky beamed with a quick hug. I smiled at her. "Same back at you, the guys will drop dead on the floor, or maybe one specific guy " Sara laughs and pokes Vicky, while Vicky joins in. while, we were on the last touch up, Sara's mom came with her camera. "Time for a picture,girls!" Sara's mom excitedly said.

After a few clicking here and there, they headed out to go to the ball. Both Sara and Vicky were excited to go, not just because it was for the gathering, but because they will get to see their charming prince's. All decked up just for them.

It didn't take that long to reach the school gates, Vicky's dad dropped them, while giving them both a curfew. Even Cinderella had, so why not them. Waving of Vicky's dad, they both waited near the gates for whom they have been anxiously waiting to see all night.

A low whistle was what caught their attention. Both Erik and Stephan stood before them, all smartly dressed and perfect for the occasion. "Am I over dressed for the occasion"? Erik asked while taking Sara's hand in his. Smiling, she shook her head. "It's perfect! Let's go in" she said to the three of them.

The school was combined with court yard. Tables were set up in both areas, white sheets with pixie lights in jars to illuminate the tables. Hanging from the ceiling, were long lights which came in the shade of white to, light blue and then to light purple. It created a magical ambience in the room. I was greeted by Nora and her friends. They looked as beautiful as us. While entering we were landed our table number, and so all four of us headed to the table.

Everyone was enjoying with their friends and some brought along their fellow lovers as well. Only a few knew Erik and I were dating. However, it won't be less that we looked siblings as we didn't act like that. After having a delightful meal, and heart to heart chat with the guys, we were interrupted by Fredric, he was like photographer for the news line in school.

"Hey Sara! A picture for the night?" Fredric smiled and said. "Sure, of course" she got up and gestured the others to join. "Splendid! Hope you all have a great night, um... "Fredric paused to look at the three eyes staring back at him. "Oh this is Vicky and her boyfriend, Stephan. And this is Erik, my Bo—"Sara's words were cut off by Fredric's next words. "You look lovely, tonight" Fredric blushed with his words. "Oh um, thank you, Fredric, you look dashing yourself" it was said in a friendly manner, however it didn't seem to be taken in that way by Erik. She was certain she heard him made a noise of discomfort at her, response for Fredric.
