What are friends for?

It was 3 o'clock, the classes had ended and everyone must be in the cafeteria eating their lunch but I was still in my room contemplating if i should rather stay here or go eat

After this crazy day that I had, my decision was heavily leaning against the most logical option but then my stomach had a different opinion and there was a clash against each other

I mean everyone would be in the cafeteria, everyone would know about the cream thing, everyone would be looking, judging

Yesterday I was a hero, now i am back to loser

But my stomach was rumbling really loudly like a real lion was inside it so...

I fell back into my bed, taking a pillow and shouting into it letting my frustrations out

What to do?

My answer actually came with the opening of the door without a knock and a very happy and smiling Kara coming in

She looked at me, losing her smile for a little while but then regaining it and as always started her rant

"Hey Maggie, how are you?feeling better?I was looking for you to take you to the cafeteria to eat, I mean i am starving, aren't you starving?I can hear your stomach from a mile away, come on hop on let's go or the food will be gone and you would have to buy me food and to tell you the truth you don't want to, you will be broke in a second"

She didn't even let me open my mouth, she grabbed both my arms and lifted me like I weighed nothing at all and started dragging me towards the cafeteria

Was she working out?how was she so strong?

As I was walking by the hallway, people were staring our way but strangely they weren't looking at me they were at Kara and whispering

What was happening?

Entering the cafeteria was confusingly the same i didn't hear my name being whispered around, I only heard Kara's and Lena's a few too

Arriving at our table, I saw everyone there giving me smiles and waves

I raised an eyebrow and and sat in the open sit next to Lena, who while being smily and stuff still gave me a concerned look, to which I nodded and smiled a little

Kara sat next to me, with the food overflowing her plate and quickly digging in not saying a thing, while the others talked about the weather?

No one was saying anything about what happened this morning, not commenting at all about it, asking if I was okay, upset, anything

I was really confused

I turned towards Lena, she was always one that without even speaking I could communicate perfectly

I raised an eyebrow, stating clearly that I wanted to know what was happening

She sighed and gave me a look that said later, so I guess I would find out later

But the whispers didn't stop, it was like yesterday but this time, even though the attention should have been towards me, it was directed to Kara

Even the popular table seemed to be quiet, more quietly than usual, they were still talking but it was more subdued, except one person who seemed quiet and looking straight at me

But at the moment our eyes would cross I turned my head towards my food and started eating, losing my apetite, i just didn't want to deal with this person anymore
