Dad allowed me to skip school because I was still depressed. All I could think of was what happened to Bradley. Was it really my fault? I'm so sorry Brad, I never meant for you to get hurt. If only you were here, I wouldn't be so broken now. It has been a year and a half. How can you create a big impact on me? I miss you. Every second. Every day.
It was past 3 as I stayed up watching movies late at night to get my mind off from the incident but nothing worked. I slept at 6am and just woke up like five minutes ago. "SELINE! YOUR LUNCH WILL BE COLD IF YOU DON'T GET DOWN SOONER!" my mum yelled. I wasn't hungry so I picked up my headphones and listened to my playlist on shuffled. Few minutes later, I could hear my mum calling my name but I wasn't really sure. I kept hearing my name repeatedly. "WHAT?!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. "Seline, your friend is here. Tomi?" Great. Just great. He won't stop bothering me, gosh.
I ran down on the stairs and saw Tomi holding a plastic bag filled with boxes. "Remember our science project?" Tomi asked. OH SHIT. "Yea, follow me." We went upstairs to my working room.
"So how did you know where was my house?" I asked him curiously. "I asked Miss Samantha. I knew both of you were close due to you know, rumours." "It isn't a rumour. It is the truth.." I answered quietly. "What happened to both of you?" "I closed down and avoid people after what happened to Bradley," I answered. Tomi looked at me. I blinked my eyes repeatedly to make sure tears won't fall but it didn't worked.
Tomi and I worked on the project. I made the oesophagus, the stomach and the small intestine while Tomi did the big intestine until the anus. "You are good." Tomi was impressed. "When I was younger, I usually do this with my dad, my mum usually would paint with me." It was already 7.45 and it wasn't really done yet. "I'll come back tomorrow to modify it?" questioned Tomi. "Urhm sure.." He was about to leave but he stood at the door said, "So will I see you tomorrow?" "No. I can't. Not yet." Tomi nodded, "Tomorrow then."
