It's Only Gossip

Revenge, the action of hurting or harming someone in return for an injury or wrong suffered at their hands..

Wow I can't believe my mocks start today, it feels like a life time ago I was forced to not leave campus. Studying really does that. It makes three weeks seem like an eternity.

These exams should be alright. Worst case scenario: I only scrap a C. That's alright. I'm not used to it, but that's better than failing.

I can't bear to imagine the fear of people who get below C's during exam season. I would probably cry continuously.

I'm a decent student so I never experienced what it was like to actually fail. Yes I've experienced my own type of failure, such as getting a B on a test I studied for, but that isn't the same as getting below a C. Honestly, I'm so sick and tired of people telling those who fail to just "study" as if they haven't already tried! The worst thing is, they don't even give any study tips or offer to help them study.

Imagine how they feel.

Imagine studying for a test and finding out you failed. Then there are really smart people complaining about not getting an A* or even 100%! So inconsiderate.

I understand why smart people do complain that they don't get the highest grade. I do that all the time, but I don't say it out loud! That's honestly the worst thing you could do.

I'm sorry, but I fully understand that they studied so so hard yet they didn't get the grade they desired, but at least they passed!

There are so many people who study so hard but they still end up failing and hearing you moan doesn't make it any better. Snobs. I think the people who try even though they failed are the strongest. I envy them so much. It takes a lot of strength and patience, they're so pure.

Please carry on trying, it'll be worth it.

Oops, I realise I'm lost in my own thoughts as soon as everyone in my line starts standing up. We're entering the exam hall now, I'm excited. I can't wait to get this over and done with.

...

I don't know what was worst, the fact that I ran out of time or that a chemistry test consisted of 90% maths questions. Well, at least the recall questions were easy.

A week later

Finally all my mocks are finished! Now I can peacefully forget everything for a while. Best feeling ever.

Somebody familiar walks past me with a grin, Aura.

"Can I leave now?" I fake a smile.

"Sure." She shrugs.

I'm about to walk away until she holds my hand. I can feel something rough rub against my skin. She closes my hands and that's when I realise, it's time.

I casually speed walk to my dorm and open the folded paper. It has an exact address of Carrie's and Ash's great grandad's house.

Do I tell Amelia?

Does she know?

She has been constantly texting me once a day asking me whether I'm still at school. I think she was checking whether I'd leave without her. She definitely knows. I'll go alone and Aura will cover my tracks. She promised to help.

Sadly, I don't have my drivers license yet so I guess I'm travelling by train.

I double check snapchat to make sure I'm on ghost mode, can't have people knowing where I am. Yes, my locations is off.

Unfortunately when I reach the train station, a really angry Amelia somehow finds me and escorts me to her car.

Okay, I guess I have to trust her.

Sorry for the long rant in this chapter, I just really had the urge to express my thoughts.

I hope you carry on trying even if you don't get the results you want, you will eventually!
