I mope around all week through school. I also haven't seen Jake all week either. What's happened to him? I think to myself. is it something I did? I stop thinking about it. I go over to my locker to get my books for sixth period. "Hey Liz. How are you doing?" Shelby says. "I'm fine" I say to her. "Okay" she says. "Lets go to class now" she says while wrapping her arm around mine.
We get to sixth period and everyone starts stairing at me. What's their problem? I think to myself I start heading to my seat and Adriele grabs my arm. "I know what you did" she says in a whisper. I try to get my arm out of her grasp. My head starts to hurt and her emotions are anger, pride, and envy. My head starts to ache a lot and I'm trying to get out of her grasp but she won't let go. "I know you kissed Jake" she also whispers. "Why would you care" I ask in a whisper. She finally lets go of my arm. "No reason" she whispers while smiling. I walk to my seat and my head ache starts to subside. I thought I was going to lose it back their. Her thoughts where pure evil and she was thinking I already told everyone in school about the kiss. I thought Why would any of this be any of her business? I sit down by Shelby and go through class without saying a word.
"What was Adriele saying to you back there in class" Shelby asks when we get into her jeep. "Nothing. It's nothing." I say quietly. "Oh it was something. Now spill it." she says forcefully. "She knows that Jake kissed me and she told everyone at school" I say. "Jake kissed you!?" She says loudly. "Why didn't you tell me he did?" she asks. "I don't know" I say quietly. "Look I'm sorry. I know you're going through a tough time with your dad in the hospital and all" she says apologetically. "It's okay. I'll be fine" I say while smiling at her. "Okay" she says quietly. We ride to my house in silence.
I go over to my mom. She's sitting on the couch. "Hey mom. Are you okay?" I ask noticing the blank expression across her face. "Your dad is getting worse and the doctor says that they're going to take him to surgery in two hours." she says. "He-he's going to be okay, right? Mom! He's going to be okay...Right!?" I ask in fear. She says nothing. "Mom" I ask in a whisper. "They say there's a 42% chance that he'll make it through the surgery. He could lose to much blood. His organs could fail on him. His heart could stop and not start." she says with tears rolling down her face. "Get to the car. We're going to the hospital." I say while grabbing the keys off the table.
