Chapter 2

February 21

Two days after her first day at school Arelie gazed at the homework in front of her. That Monday had been a bit depressing, but Elie saw future. This was her new future, from now on she’d have to plan for the days ahead of her here – in Florida.

She was almost finished with her French homework. Miss Louie thought that preparing ahead of time for their French test two weeks from now was appropriate. Arelie thought otherwise. Without Tori’s help she’d pummel down into an F. yes, Arelie spoke some French, but she hated tests. Arelie glanced at the clock.

5:45pm.

Not to late to go anywhere. Arelie grabbed her phone. No text messages. She wanted to visit that new coffee place a few blocks from there, if she finished her homework in ten minutes she’d be able to make it home by eight. On that thought she quickly wrote down a few more answers on her sheet, finished her Biology homework and jumped off the bed.

She went into her closet and found her tights, she pulled them on with a tang-top her Aunt had bought her and a jacket. She pulled on her sneakers, and grabbed her keys. She paused to text Victoria.

Hey, on my way 2 new café. Wnt 2 join?

After texting her friend, Arelie grabbed her wallet, checked inside and satisfied herself with the fifty dollar bill and dropped it in her bag. Sooner or later she’d have to get a job, her Aunt wouldn’t always be able to provide for her. Arelie started for the door and paused, grabbing a sheet of paper she scribbled the place where her Aunt could find her if she arrived home early.

With that she left the house and got into her car. She put it in reverse and slowly backed out; after she did that she put it in drive. Her phone buzzed then. She looked at the screen, Victoria had texted her back.

Sure, c u in 5.

On her way to the café, she noticed a five member group on the sidewalk. They all wore the color red, either bandanas, wrist bracelets, t-shirts, or sneakers. She passed them, but couldn’t help noticing they all had a tattoo on their wrist, that was when she noticed the boy who had bumped into her on Monday. He didn’t smile, though.

She didn’t think he was capable of it. Then, as if he sensed her eyes, he looked up. Their eyes met and after five seconds, Arelie blinked out of her trance and zoomed away, looking at the rear view mirror she could see that he was still watching her.

Five minutes later she met Victoria at the entrance of the café. They went inside and ordered two sandwiches and two coffees. After choosing a seat, they started talking.

“So, how do you like the past two days so far?” Tori asked. Arelie shrugged.

“Its fine, but I didn’t expect to be loaded with homework.” Arelie replied. Tori nodded; there was a moment of silence between them.

“I . . . I noticed that you drive home right after school.” Tori said, breaking through the thick silence. Arelie nodded at her. “You . . . why don’t you, you know, wait for me or something? I mean, not that I mind, it’s just . . . unusual.”

Arelie chewed away the rest of her food before answering. “I don’t mean to hurt your feelings. It’s just that I’m used to having to ignore everyone. It’s starting to become a habit. I . . . you could say I’m not really a people type, I don’t really find it comfortable staying at school for so long, you know?” Arelie explained. Tori nodded.
