Chapter 3
I don't feel good. I have a major headache, my eyes are burning from rubbing them, and my stomach feels like I haven't ate for months. The only good thing is that is study hall. This means I only have 30 more minutes before I can go home and take a nap. I had just taken an Aspirin and feel very sleepy.
I walk in the library and look around for an empty seat. I see three seats that are available. The first one is by a bunch of Goths, the second is by a group of hippies, and the third is by Sam. I would have chosen the hippies, but Sam got up and jogged to me.
"Please come sit with me. I'm sorry about earlier, I really am." After a while of this, I forgave her.
I go sit with her in the very back of the library so nobody can hear us if we whisper. As soon as I sit down, she starts with the apologizing. “I’m sorry.... I'm so sorry.... I didn't mean to say anything... I won't do it again," I stop her before she goes crazy.
“Sam... It's okay. It's just I get a little emotional,” I tell her, “No more apologizing, okay." She studies for awhile to see if I'm joking or not. "Okay!!!" She finally says.
I grab onto my stomach and wince in pain. Sam grabs her bag and says, “let me get you an Aspirin." I shake my head, “I have already taken some." She sighs and puts her bag back on the floor.
"Get to work ladies!!!!!" the librarian whispers loudly. I open my book and daydream for the last 17 minutes of class.
