Bad Boy With A Secret

The Car

I hate walking, why couldn't I just buy a car?! It would be a lot easier! I mean seriously, I shouldn't have to rely on my feet all the time. I sound like a maniac, am I talking out loud?

"Yes, you're talking out loud!" That's a voice I could never forget.

"Holly!" Me and Holly have been best friends for 10 years now, however, I don't recall her ever walking to school.

"Why aren't you in your car?" Holly always goes to school in her car.

"Well..." She seems nervous, she should be, what am I even thinking, this is my best friend, she's probably lost her car keys or something, or maybe her dad decided it was best for her to walk instead. Yeah that's probably what it is!

"Hello? Earth to Angel!"

"Er...what?" Was she speaking to me all this time?

"You're always zoning out, are you ok?"

"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine, but where is your car?" You see the reason why I'm constantly asking her about her car is, I paid for it as a birthday present, that's before I passed my driving test. So technically the car is mine, technically.

"Well..."

"Spit it out Holly, we haven't got all day! Where's my..er..your car?" She seems a little nervous...should I be worried?

"I...I er...I sold it....."

WHAT?! She sold her car, why the fuck would she sell her car?! I bought her that as a birthday present! Well now I feel like shit, not that it matters, because I always feel like shit!

"Angelica...please say something!"

"What exactly am I supposed to say to that?! You sold the car, that I bought you! Out of my own money that I SAVED UP FOR!!!" people are probably staring right now, but I don't give a shit. Gosh, I feel like crying...no stop, Angelica, don't show any sign of sadness, and regret. Oh god, how I regret buying that car.

"I know I'm sorry, but...-"

"But what Holly?! What made you sell the car anyway? It was the colour wasn't it? I knew I should of got you red not blue!"

"No Angelica, it wasn't the colour! It was Jake."

Jake, why the hell would she sell her car because of Jake?

"Wh...I....WHAT?! That doesn't make sense!" Technically it is my car, MY CAR, that she just happened to sell, or should I say WAS, my car.

"Look, I'll explain, when we get to class because, I don't want to worry you, but we're 10 minutes late for school, class has already started!"

Oh no, this can't be happening, I've never been late for class, EVER! First Alex this morning, then the car, and now, NOW I'm late for class. Today so far, has been one of the crappiest days of my life!

"OH POOFACE!"
