Falling Back #wattys2017

Chapter Fourteen

The next morning, the sun was getting brighter and brighter as I walked to school. It was a rather warm day for the month of May. Of course all days in May are warm enough to not need a jacket but today was the first hot day of May. As I was walking, I was starting to sweat in my hair which is really gross. All I wanted at that moment was to be sprayed with cold water, like last Friday when Mike sprayed me with a water gun. Good times. This day sort of reminded me of the day when Mike committed suicide

The day I found out Mike committed suicide was just as hot as this one. It was a hot June day and I was sweating as much that day as I was today. Nothing was going wrong with that school day. Tracey was about to go on a date with James, Hanna got an A on her science project, and I finally finished my essay from history class. Which now I have to redo. Point is, everything was going great. Until I saw that headline on the newspaper

I remember the feeling of sadness and loss I got when I found out about what happened. The way my throat closed up, the regret that I didn't do anything about Mike being alone, it was all too much for me and I didn't even know Mike. Now I know Mike very well and he's my crush

One of my biggest fears is going to that convince store and experiencing the heart ache all over again. I couldn't do it. I couldn't stand to see Mike die again. Me jumping back in time was honestly a miracle. That's why I have to complete this mission

It's just that last night really bothered me. Mike was probably just had a schoolguy crush. Every guy has a crush as much as they all deny it and its normal of them to think a girls beautiful or they are going to marry them someday. It's just, why does Mike have to feel that way about Olga?!

Still, I'm happy for Mike. Mike was always a stubborn mule but when it comes to Olga, he seems to actually care about her. Sure, I want him all to myself but maybe just being happy for Mike will help him realize that he can't kill himself

No Sarah, don't think like that! Olga is trying to steal everything from me. My friends, my guy, even Yale. I can't let her get away with her crafty schemes. I have to do something to stop her from getting on top. The time to act is now, before Olga wipes both Mike and I off this planet

"Hey Sarah" greeted Hanna as I walked into the hallway "The prom is literally like next Friday and we like have to shop for a dress"

"Go to that dress store next to the supermarket" I suggested "That's where you found that purple dress with the jewels on top that you loved"

"How did you know that?" asked Tracey with her mouth open

"I just have a feeling" I said "And at that store Tracey is a silk red dress that has a matching purse"

Tracey and Hanna looked so confused at what I just told them. I told them their future. I don't know why I did that, I just felt like putting myself on a pedestal before Olga does something evil, like what I'm fearing

"Don't you have a bad feeling about Olga?" I ask

"No" answered Hanna "I think that Olga will probably become a saint someday" I roll my eyes in disgust. I bet she'd be a great example for worshipers across the world

"Yeah" chimed Tracey "I admire her so much. She's just so rich and beautiful. It's as if she's too good for us"

"Each for their own I guess" was all I could muster out. I still couldn't believe that Hanna and Tracey were that fooled. They really thought that Olga was the best person on earth. I would have never expected them to be the type of people who follow the popular girl.

I wouldn't even think of anyway a human being could like the devil who killed my mother. There was such hatred I built up for Olga inside after I heard she killed my mother. That day when I first met Olga in the supermarket and yelled at her, I was expressing my heart and I hated it when Olga just rolled her eyes and pretended I wasn't there. After the school bell rung, I had my usual five periods and then it was lunch time. Oh joy
