As I walk into the cafeteria, I think of all the excuses that could work. "Hey! Where's Ashley?" She says with her head going to one side. "Uhhhhh......"I say forgetting what my excuse was. "Ashley's at home!" I say as I realize I said that out loud. Everyone stares at me with confusion while I just stand there awkwardly. "She couldn't take all the drama anymore." I say more calmly as I sit down with my food. "I'm sorry..." she says with a frown. "It's ok, you didn't do anything wrong." I say. "Ya but I just stood there and watched the poor girl get hurt! I could've done something, I could've prevented the poor girl from going through all of this! But I just stood there, watching her go through all of that, just because I was afraid that the same thing would happen to me! She says with a tear strolling down her face. "Excuse me, I need to got to the bathroom!" I say rushing out the cafeteria. I run to the lockers and lean on one of them. As soon as I know it, tears start rolling down my face. After crying for about 3 minutes, I feel a head on my shoulder. "I'm sorry...." I hear Clara whisper.

---in class---

"Good afternoon class!" I hear the teacher say as I walk in. Looking around the room, I realize that the only vacant seat is beside Mandy, the one who ruined my life. "Hey!" She says enthusiastically as she waves at me to tell me that I should sit next to her, not that I have much of a choice. As I walk to my designated seat, she looks up at me and smiles. "I know what you want!" I think to myself.

"So, your new right?" She says as she flips her hair and smiles. "Ugh! She's doing her 'I'm friendly' face again." I think to myself. "Ya, I moved in with my cousin." I say. "Who's your cousin?" Mandy's friend says as she gets slapped at the arm by Mandy. "Ashley Fitzgerald." I say with a serious face and an intimidating tone. Mandy looks at her friends then looks back at me surprised. "Oh! She's your cousin? We're such close friends, we're pretty much sisters!" She lies. "You don't say!" I say sarcastically. "Speaking of Ashley, where is she?" One of her friends say. "She's at home, she says that she's been dealing with some drama, especially with the bullies." I say attempting to make Mandy nervous. "I wonder who those are?" Mandy says nervously. "YES! It worked!" I think to myself. "I personally hate people who bring others down for fun or for attention. If anyone should be feeling down it's the bully. I would die just to know that I made someone go through all of that EVEN THERAPY in my conscience!" I say intimidatingly. "Hehe....ya" she says.

Once the bell rings I get up from my chair, leaving Mandy flustered. "PAYBACK!" I say to myself.

As soon as I see Clara in the distance, I run as fast as I can to her. "CLARA!" I shout in the hallway. "Hmm?" She says as she turns back to see me panting while holding her shoulder. "Guess what I did?" I say. "You left Mandy flustered" she says "How'd you know?!" I say raising my eye brows. "What goes around comes around." She says before walking out. "Wait, let me walk you home." I say. "Asher, I know you're trying to be friendly but we just met!" She says "I know, I know, but you've been a big help to me today. Without you I would've never survived!" I say exaggerating. "True......" she says before I punch her lightly in the arm. "You punch like a little girl!" She says as she punches me back. "Ow!" I say rubbing my arm. "Ha, I wasn't even trying!" She says in fits of laughter. I punch her with all my strength to see that I punched her like she could feel it, but it still kind of hurt. "Hey! That actually kinda hurt!" She says angrily. I burst into fits of laughter and as soon as you know it, we're at my house. " I thought I was walking you?" I say. "I can walk myself, I do this everyday. It's not like today's gonna be different." She says. "Suit yourself." I say before going through the door. "AHHHHHHHH!!!!!" I hear Clara scream.

Patience isn't how long you wait, but your attitude while waiting. <Saw this at this piece of paper at my friend's house, lmao😂😂 Anyways, cya! :)
