As I woke up the next day, I realized that It was Monday.

Will I be absent again? 

I sat up as I rubbed my eyes. I touched my forehead as it was warm.

Weird? Could it be?

I came to realize that... I don't have a fever anymore! After my realization, I quickly ran into my bathroom and shower.

After a few minutes, I was done as I wrapped the towel around me and I picked out an outfit.

After I got dressed, I walked out of my room as I ran downstairs to eat breakfast with my dad.

As I walked in the kitchen, I saw my dad already eating without me. But now, he's drinking coffee.

"Can't wait without me?" I said teasingly.

He looked at me as he spits the coffee out of his mouth.

"Not what I was expecting." I said as I sat beside him in our table.

He hit me in my shoulder again.

"Hey, that's four times already!" I groaned.

"Why aren't you in bed?" He asked curiously.

"Cause.. Im all well now... See?" I said as I placed his right hand on my forehead.

"Uh-huh. But maybe you need to rest alittle more today and tomorrow, you can go to school.." My dad suggested.

"No, I've been absent for a week. Maybe some people think that I'm on vacation." I said mockingly.

"Well, I'm just thinking about you." He said worriedly.

"I'm fine, Dad." I said as I grabbed a fork and ate the egg on his plate.

He hit me again!

"Ow! 5 times, Dad!" I groaned as I massaged my shoulder.

"Don't eat my food." He said angerily.

"Fine, then I'll just eat this." I said as I grabbed the apple and bite it.

"Are you sure that you're well now?" He asked as he ate his egg.

"I am, don't worry about me." I said as I smiled.

"Are you really sure?" He asked again.

"Yeah, and I don't wanna be absent again. I hate it!" I said seriously.

Good thing that my friends called me last night and told me all the activities that I missed.

"Good. Do you want me to take you there?" He asked.

"Nah, I'll just walk. I need to think for a while." I said as I stand up.

"Are you sure?" He asked.

My dad, always playing the protective role..

"Yes, I will." I said as I planted a kiss on his right cheek.

"Better hurry." He said as he drank his coffee.

"Why? I have all the time in the world."

"Are you sure?" He said as he nodded to the clock.

I looked at the clock as I got surprised.

Its 7:30am! I need to be there at 8:00am.

"Alright, you got me there. Love you, Dad!" I said as I started to walk.

"Love you too, dear." He respond at me.

As I walked at the sidewalk, I thought of how am I gonna apologized to Charlie.

Charlie, Im sorry...?

Hey weirdo, we need to talk!

Liverwood...

Man, I don't know what to say. He's been apologized to me for a year and all I do is pushed him away. Im such a horrible friend to him. Why can't I just believe him in the first place? Why didn't listen to everything he said to me?

As I walked inside my school, my classmates looked at me like Im a ghost or something.

Oh great! Everytime this happens, I always get in trouble!! Why can't they just mind their business?!

As I reached the hall, I saw my friends as they suddenly walked to me and hugged me. Which made me freak out a little.

"Did something happened?" I asked curiously as I hugged them back.

Then Pat slapped my shoulder.

"Ow! Hey, you don't know how many hits I've been getting!" I said angerily.

"Sorry." She apologized.

"Its alright. So what's with the hugging?" I asked.

"We miss you alot, Yana." Drea said as she smiled.

"Aw! I miss you too.. Actually, all of you!" I said as we walked abreast to my locker.

"What's with the new look?" Shay asked as she looked at me from head to toe.

"What? I kinda like it. Do you?" I said as I looked down. I was wearing a white tank top with pink pants and brown boots.

"You look really pretty." Shay said as she smiled.

"I appreciate it." I said as I smiled.

"Are you okay now?" Pat asked.

"Yeah, if I wasn't, I wouldn't even be here." I said mockingly as I saw my locker.

"And the attitude came back again." Shay said teasingly. I opened my locker as I took out my English book.

"I heard that Charlie visit you yesterday? Is that true?" Shay asked curiously.

"Yeah, he did. What about it?" I said nervously.

"People are gossiping about it." Pat said as she looked worriedly.

"I don't care about what they say." I said nervously.

"Why are you nervous?" Drea said as she looked at me.

Wow! She can read me like a book!

"Im not nervous." I mumbled.

"Yeah, sure you're not." Pat said teasingly.

I closed my locker as I seriously looked at them.

"I'm not nervous, okay." I said as I smiled.

"I can't believe you're smiling!" Drea said mockingly as she and my girls turned their back and started walking.

I went infront of them as I walked backwards.

"I'm smiling because I'm so happy to see my friends. Aren't you?"

"Yana.." Shay's voice trailed off.

"What?" I said as I turned around.

I bumped my head into something and made me fell.

"Ow. My head." I mumbled as I gently touched my forehead.

Then I saw my friends running away, leaving me sitting in the ground.

"Thank you for helping me!!" I yelled as I stand up and wipe the dirt on my bum.

When I looked up, I realize I got bumped by an open locker.

"Why would someone forgot to close their locker?" I said as I grabbed the locker.

As I was about to close it, I looked down as I saw legs...

So I guess someone taking books from their locker...

When the locker closed, I got shocked as I saw Charlie, looking at me seriously.
