MIRRORS.

Chapter 16

Kairo's POV

Like I said before, I was NOT gonna cry over Chris. However, what happened made me think.

Why would Chris cheat on me with Makayla?

I'm not as shy as I was before, I'm not very insecure anymore, and I gave him sex. I didn't give it to him so he would stay with me, but you get my point.

So why would he cheat?

It then occurred to me that maybe he wanted a girl who was more popular and confident.

Now that I think about it, why wouldn't he choose Makayla over me? She's pretty, slim, and hella popular. Then there's me....

I was stupid for believing him in the first place.

Of course I still love Chris, but I'm not dealing with his bull anymore.

I've decided to play with Chris' head. I'm gonna become the type of girl he's attracted to, but he won't be able to get me.

He's gonna regret this with every fiber of his being.

{Next Day}

I decided to change my wardrobe up a little. Everyone seemed to direct all of their attention towards me when I wore something outside of my usual boundaries, especially at the party, so I'll wear something similar to those outfits.

I wore a cut off purple Lakers jersey, a pair of black leggings, and my tan Timberlands.

It was cute, yet simple. I didn't wanna seem like a slut.

I fluffed my hair out, grabbed my phone and bag, then went downstairs. My mom was sitting at the island in her robe, drinking from her mug.

"Good morning mama." I kissed her cheek.

"Morning baby. I'm not feeling good today, so you can take the car if you want."

"Really!?" I asked excitedly.

She smiled, "Yes, but be careful!"

I nodded, grabbed the keys, and went outside to my mom's silver 2013 Nissan Altima. I got in and started on my route to school.

Once I got to school and got out of the car, everyone's eyes fell on me; which is exactly what I wanted.

Instead of hurrying to my locker like I usually do, I walked there at a normal pace with my head held high.

Boys stared and girls glared, hell some girls stared too!

I knew right then that my change in appearance and attitude was the right choice. Chris was gonna hate that he fucked up.

When I got to my locker, Kiana was already there waiting for me. She saw me and her mouth fell open. I couldn't help but laugh.

"Damn Kai, no sweats or hoodies? Is it the return of Christ?" she said playfully as she looked up at the sky.

I pushed her lightly, "Shutup," I giggled, "I just wanted to go for something different."

"Mhmm, well this is really different for you. You look good though!" she complimented.

"Thanks." I laughed.

The bell rung, signalling for us to go to class. I waved at Kiana and went on my way.

When I walked into class, Chris was already there. Just the sight of him pissed me off.
