Chapter Ten: I Spy . . . Well A Spy

ARCHER: So you're not allowed to ever see us again.

ME: Nope.

TREY THE IDIOT JERKFACE: What's your mom's problem anyway?

SERA: I have no idea, but I'm pretty sure it was my outfit.

ME: It wasn't you're outfit Sera.

BREE: Maybe it was cursed.

SERA: Oh my God, you're right! It's probably cursed. I should throw it out or something.

ME: It's not cursed for goodness sakes, don't throw it out!

It was Sunday morning and Archer, Trey, Sera, Bree and I were having a group chat. If my parents wanted to check my phone I would just delete all my conversations. They wouldn't go as far as checking the computer. I was sure of it. Everyone was pretty upset, especially Sera. She thought she ruined it all because she wore the blue dress. I tried to convince her that it wasn't her fault but she wouldn't listen. And Bree wasn't making it any better.

SERA: Fine, do you want the cursed dress?

ME: Yes! Give it to me.

SERA: No way, it's mine.

ARCHER: Forget the stupid dress, what are we going to do? Should we avoid you, Kaya?

ME: No, I'm not listening to my parents. Besides, I'm too involved in this to back out now. It doesn't matter that I'm not an Omnipotent.

BREE: Kaya, maybe it's best if we leave you out of this. It would be better for you.

ME: To be separated from my only friends?

TREY THE IDIOT JERKFACE: That makes you sound like a loner.

I rolled my eyes. Wasn't he helpful?

SERA: Back off Trey. And guys, don't try to get rid of Kaya. She's a part of our group now, we can't just let her go.

ARCHER: What about leaving to California? We're going to have leave her then.

ME: What if I sneaked away?

ARCHER: You're parents might bring the police into this.

ME: I could tell them that I'm going somewhere else.

ARCHER: It wouldn't work, they'll catch you.

ME: Gee, it really seems like you're trying to get rid of me.

ARCHER: I'm just trying to protect you Kaya. And remember about the whole not being an Omnipotent thing? That wouldn't work out for us.

I took that as a whole different meaning which just made me more upset.

BREE: Guys, I have to go now, my mom's calling me.

ME: Okay one final thing. No more morning runs, but I'll be able to come over after school I think.

ARCHER: Got it. Okay then. I have to go order lunch. Bye

TREY THE IDIOT JERKFACE: YESS! Pizzzzaaaa

SERA: Oh my God, this time we have to order the vegetable pizza. I am not eating meat.

ARCHER: Why not?

SERA: Cause I'm vegetarian you idiot!

ME: Okay guys, you can argue face to face, you live in the same house. Don't blow up my phone with all these texts. See ya tomorrow.

They all said goodbye and then I went back to preparing for my first two finals the next day. I had to score well, especially to get my parents off my back.
