Secrets Of Delacroix High

Depression strikes again

Get out sunshine, GET UP HONEY, THE SUN'S A SHINING.

I jumped out of my bed, startled from Catherine's loud and annoying alarm clock. I sighed, It was only five thirty and school starts seven twenty. The early bird gets the worm I guess. I stretched my arms before going in my closet to iron my uniform. A white shirt with a navy blue crest on the left breast, along with a navy blue pleated skirt which is knee length. I lazily walked to the corner of my bed and took out the ironing board, and started to iron "Good morning Chloe" Catherine said in her snobby voice. That's strange she never says morning to me, maybe she finally got her head out her ass. "Morning" I mumbled. She ignored me and busied herself and started to clean her side of the room while humming a song to herself. ...once I finished with my ironing, I jumped back in bed and started to text Jade

Heyyy

Hi Chloe
What's wrong?

That was weird, Jade always replies to my texts, no matter what time it is. I tried calling her but she didn't answer. Guess I'll have to talk to her later . I searched the web then something came up on my screen from an unknown number. JADE WINSTON EXPOSED AT PARTY! MUST WATCH!
what the hell, is this why she isn't talking to me. But Jade hates going to parties ....I would know.

I never got much sleep this morning. With the whole 'Jade got exposed' thing I got nosey and watched the video. After some 'investigation' I threw took up my soap, loofah, and my towel and went to the bathroom. "Oh my God, Tori you have to see Jade's video."
My eyes widened. "Saw it at least six times already." the other girl replied. This is bad, really bad. The whole school must know about this now. Obviously , it's on the internet . The world wide web.
I stepped in the shower and scrubbed myself clean with the loofah. Thinking about mom. My mother died a couple months ago in a police, gunmen shoot out. She was supposed to go grocery shopping that day, she was supposed to come back and make me and Katie blueberry pancakes. Instead we found out that she had been shot during the shootout. I remember the day before she left she gave me a ring. A pinky ring to be exact. She said"Here Chloe have this ring, it's supposed to go on your pinky finger it has been passed down to the generations of women in my family it's time for you to have it." "Why mom? You should keep it you know I'm not a jewelry person."

She laughed "Oh Chloe, don't think of it as an accessory think of it as an reminder of your family; Oh look at the time! I better get going. She kissed my forehead and walked out the door.

After my shower I went back in my dorm and started to get dressed. Once I was down I caught my red hair in a ponytail and made my way towards Jade's dorm. I quietly knocked on the door. "heyy.. Uh Jade it's Chloe" the door cracked open. I pushed it open and went it. Jade was on her bed with her phone in her hand she looked.... Broken

"Kate, I whispered softly to her she turned Around to me her black hair was in a messy bun and her eyes we're red from crying.

Short chapter but eh it's the first one hope y'all enjoyed bye! 😝
