Gretel's POV

That night I went to my room tired of all the day's events. It had been exhausting, my argument or more likely a speech kind of thing to the people talking about me behind me, Anna coming to my home, my mom and then all that 'dad not being able to see Anna' thing. It was all confusing and my mom had been yelling since she woke up from her unconsciousness. I hate it when she yells although I should be used to it now. But only the reason for it now was different, very different. She started with waking up, "No, Anna, why her, why her?!!!" she screamed as I stared at her face and so did dad. We were so confused. She kept telling dad to move out of this place this very night without even telling anybody. She said let's just run away without our things and live on the streets. She said things that made her look like a complete psychopath. And so much as I hate to say that about my mom, but it was the truth right now. She said that Anna has come back for revenge. She said that she will use me. She said that we should just burn ourselves right here. Things couldn't get worse. I started crying really bad and my dad, oh, my poor dad, he was left the only person looking normal but badly confused between the mess of his wife and daughter. Why does mom always have to do this. The only person in this whole hell like country side who helped me, was being nice to me, whom I liked had not given a good impression to my mom, that's the understatement of the year. It was official, my mom hated Anna. And I hated it. It seemed like the most wrong thing ever happened to me. I couldn't just get why she was reacting like this. There could be only 2 reasons for that: There was a really secret behind this, or my mother had gone crazy. So I decided to talk about it to Anna, because talking to my mom could bring me no good. I slept with a heavy heart and a badly aching head.

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
When I woke up in the morning just in time although I had forgotten to set my alarm, I took a shower, checked myself in the mirror (that is essential), wore my white shirt, black jacket and black jeans, although it seems a bit boyish but my previous so called friends said I pulled off that look. I wore my silver statement locket which said 'Honey' which my dad bought for me and also my boots because it felt like a rainy weather today. I put my hair into a nice pony tail and when I walked downstairs, I was shocked to see my mom on the sofa. It's wasn't shocking she sat on the sofa, what was shocking was that she had big bags around her eyes which were completely red by now and she looked in a bad state. Now as much as I hate it when she screams and she is always being really rude to me I still care for her and love her because after all she is my mom. I went to her and hugged her tight. She seemed really sick and was burning with fever. I quickly took off my bag and brought a bowl of cold water with small fabric pieces in them and started dipping them into the water and pressing them to her forehead, hands and feet. My mom always does that when I was sick. She just sat there as a statue all the time and tears started streaming down her cheeks and her face began to crumple as she watched my caring for her. She hugged me suddenly much to my surprise and whispered the words that had my heart sink down, "I am sorry Gretel, I am a terrible mother but your life is in danger honey, stay away from Anna." That is what I didn't want to do. I wanted to stay with Anna because she was no doubt sad, she was the one who helped me and I can't just avoid her now. That would be mean. So I decided to convince my mom I will, and secretly planned to confront Anna about everything that happened yesterday. I kissed her goodbye after my father came out of the bathroom, I bid them farewell and went walking to my school. God, I am so strange, I was wearing a p-cap, boots and carrying an umbrella with me.
When I reached the school i decided to run to my locker and then to class so that I won't miss a class again.
As I walked my way to my class, I found a boy that I wasn't remembering from yesterday running behind me. I stopped suddenly causing him to bump into me. He was too strong to fall but although I was about to fall he prevented that by grabbing my hand. I stood up and awkwardly asked him, "hi, I haven't seen you around. Were you following me?" "Yeah, I mean I was about to stop you but you stopped before that. So Hi, i am Jake. You are?" he replied quite confidently, but before I could reply he started again, "oh, sorry, I do know you, just not your name." "I am Gretel, how do you know me?" I said a little creeped out at this. "The one from Hansel and Gretel, take me to the witch's candy cottage sometime?" He asked. "It was blown up. Now tell me how do you know me."
"Curiosity killed the cat."
"Just say it already..."
"Nothing much my friend send me a video of you in the canteen. You were yelling at Jason, I wasn't there yesterday you see."
Okay so he was cute and the guy I screamed on was Jason.
"So that's Jason. And that thing was videotaped," I declared like nobody else knew it.
"Yeah. You are famous."
"Really? I used to do that in my old school so much...never been video taped for that. What is with this school?"
"Actually, Jason is the most popular boy in the school and somebody scolding him that way is something people here are not used to seeing."
"I wasn't scolding him, and by the way. I need to go, my class starts in five."
"The class in the front?"
"Yup."
"Same here, let's go. It was very cool by the way."
"What was?"
"You yelling at Jason. Really cool, it takes guts."
I smiled at myself. "Thanks, ever done that before?" I said getting a bit over confident.
"Oh me? Jason is an enemy, who do you think I am? I am the most popular person besides him and I have beaten him up as well."
I stared in disbelief, "Then why did you say, it takes guts. You have beaten him up!" I said as we walked to the backseats.
"Because you are new and no enemy to him. And why I talked to you is that we would make a great team against him. Wanna join, Gretel?"
