CHLOE:

I went to bring the water bottle as her hand was burnt. I was going to the medical room. As I entered the room I have never seen such a sight. Alice was crying and she became inconsolable. Her head was rested on Dan's chest.

"Is it burning so much al?"

There was no answer from her side. I went and saw her puffy eyes which seemed like she was crying the whole day.

"everything is cos of me.. Why do things happen vd me always."

I gave her the water bottle to drink and she somehow calmed down.

All these time, I've seen a daring and a strong Alice who even shut peoples mouth up.

But seeing her so much broken and inconsolable for the first time is too scary to digest. The hour was done and I took Alice to the classroom.

Dan was there too. I came to know that she had an ankle sprain the previous hour and she couldn't walk properly. She held her hand onto my shoulders and we went to class.

He was the assistant class monitor and I could sense from his eyes that he was hurt too.

The classes ended on an abrupt notice that there was some seminar going on and they left us early. I talked to Adele regarding Alice's condition. She was okay with it.

I took Alice to her house after all the ruckus happened in the laboratory today. I told her to take rest and not to come for a few days. Her grandparents were pretty upset as well but they didn't take any action on Jenny.

ALICE:

The classes ended on a short notice that the teachers won't be there for the consecutive three hours and we were left to home.

I couldn't imagine how to tell the incident to my grandparents, I went to the nearby hospital and got a bandage treatment done. Chloe was with me and she managed to tell my grandparents about this...

I went and changed my dress and a message popped on my phone screen.

It was him

"You must be careful dumbass, it is acid not any hot water"

He sounded a bit rude and I was already offended by that brat's cruelty

I replied-

"Yo!

:-x

I am okay, now don't make it worse psycho"

I had to be a bit annoyed after all I can't do anything for this.

"lol"

"You are so dumb that you cry for no particular reason AL-WALLY"

WHAT WAS THAT

"IF ONLY I put that acid on your hand you understand how it feels soccer head –psycho"

I read his message and found something unusual

WALLY?

I replied-

"WHO DO YOU CALL WALLY?"

"AL-WALLY! Doesn't it suit you dumb.

"(*>_<*) on what authority you call me THAT?"

"Since madam Arizona calls me SOCCERHEAD, I call you this AL-WALLY"

"EWWW ... it sounds yuck. And I'm happy if you call me AL, or Alice"

"NO! I call you AL-WALLY;-P"

"Whatever... what made you awake this late specimen?"

"Nothing, I was too bored and thought of some mocking session, and then I remembered you Wally! XD... I'm going to save your contact as AL-WALLY (><)

NOTHING made me as annoyed as his words but I never knew that a smile crept on my face. For a moment I was too sad for this injury thing and now someone is trying to get a smile on my face. I replied-

"I saved your name as a soccer head-psycho, way long specimen. Anyways, I'll take your leave. Nap time (zzzzz)."

"Ok"

As I was about to keep my phone for charging he messaged me-

"I am sorry for what happened with you today. Don't worry and have a good sleep. Wally ;-)

That message made me somehow relaxed, but I don't know why I am so affected by him.

It is good if we remain friends, I don't want any sort of misunderstandings arise between as I began to enjoy his company.

I don't know what to do, my hand was better than yesterday and I decided to go to school, not because I really care of attendance, at least I won't get bored of being a homesick female.

NEXT DAY:

I walked to my class. My hand was paining, but I can still manage that pain. Everyone was curious to know about me. Chloe warned me not to come to class as I am still unwell, but I didn't take it seriously. Dan looked at me with utmost silly and shocked expression as he thought I am an alien.

"Why are you here Wally?" he took me to a corner and asked

"It is just that I can't afford to miss the class. And don't call me Wally, psycho"

I replied with a storm

I have enrolled myself in few clubs that give credentials to my academic year as a grace mark. Chloe informed me about the C.D.P.S. club and many ones.

C.D.P.S was a socially training club as it involved doing humongasaurus activities like flying across a rope, skydiving, hand gliding. I am a quite adventurous person who loves to do such stuff. So today was my first class at C.D.P.S and the best part is the classes is different for girls and boys. They have a separate session and we have a separate one. Hilda, Janice, Grace, Emma, Chloe, Sophie, Jenny, Portia and I were the ones from our class. And many of them from other classes as well.

All mattered to me was having an acid injury I should not embarrass myself and hurt by someone again and I have a gut feeling that the brat and her gang were up to something.

So the first day had the task of flying across ropes. It was a training session after which we had to perform the stunt.

The task was to climb a tree and fly across the rope like a Tarzan. And then you have to jump in a trampoline and catch the rope that they leave and fly across it and land on the floor.

The training session went on pretty well. And after a ten minute break we were asked to do the stunt so that they can give marks

According to the alphabetical order my name came first, but I was too nervous and I asked the teacher to give me second slot and she accepted. Emma did first and after her came my turn.
