The Juice is Worth the Squeezed

Chapter 21-Were Never Gone

Methel POV

When I arrived one day in the class room of my school, I saw a piece of paper in my empty chair. I looked around to my classmates to see if someone is playing tricks on me but then I also doubt that they would so I opened the paper and found out that it was a note.

Dear Methel

                I know I was never a good friend to you and I'm sorry about that because all I do is take advantage of the closeness you have with the people in the school that students like me admired the most. I know you are a good person, there is no doubt about that. I will admit to you that I am one of the people behind the plan to separate you and Geoffrey... though I didn't plan to hurt the two of you. I will not forget you Methel and I know you won't forget me now, because of what I did to you and Geoffrey.

                I wrote this letter because I can't take another day talking to you as if I'm an innocent bitch. So I decided out of thin air last night to just transfer to a school outside the country. I dearly hope that you'll forgive me someday for all the selfishness I had. I wish you and Geoffrey a long and happy relationship Methel... and thanks for being a friend to me.

                                                                                                                                                                You're bitch friend

                                                                                                                                                         Jenny Sarah Martinal

I was surprised after reading the letter. I didn't know that she can do that to me! Or maybe I'm just too naïve? I took in a couple of breaths and settled to my seat. Seeing the vacant one beside me... I remembered Jenny. Yes she sometimes drifts on her own world that she seems to be distant and almost a stranger. But nonetheless... she's been a good friend to me or that's what I thought.

The rest of the day was been dedicated of me trying to focused on what the teacher is saying. All these things happening to me! I can't take them all at once, my mother deciding on transferring to the country side with my father with her relatives. My father's condition is still not that stable and because of that, my mother decided to go back to her roots far away on the city, where when you have a small boat, a net to catch a few fish, a fishing pole and your small space in the market... you'll live and earn money enough.

While the two of them are there, I will be the one to stay on our house to continue my studies... of course I protested at first when my mother proposed it to me and my father but then... a night of thinking made me realized that it's the best option for the three of us right now. It's not that I won't be seeing them again right? Let's just say they will be on their second honeymoon in another country and will be gone for a few months.

My relationship with Geoffrey was another thing. I mean I haven't seen him for months! I only got the chance to talked to him once but it never been repeated again. Most of the news about him always came from the other three member of the group, T.J., Joshua and Phillip. They told me Geoffrey is really busy with business meeting and all of that... but at the back of my mind... there is someone telling me that he will soon be married to someone, a girl on the same status as him. The one who's more appropriate for him, it hurts, yes, it feels like I was been stabbed in the heart by an unknown reason. I love him, I told him already and he loves me too. Is it too early to give up on him? Do I need to accept the fact that he is not for me?
