3-person POV:

Time went slowly too slowly. Nobody did anything. Everyone in the room was strangers. They had seen each other every day but were strangers alike. They looked at each other but nothing else. Some had eyes on someone a bit extra than others.

"Psst Josie?" said a male voice from the corridor. Over the threshold came Reggie Mantle.
"Reg Reg," Josie cheated and ran up to him and gave him a kiss. Everybody in the room looked shocked at them. Josie and Reggie?
"I have something for you" he told Josie and handed her a bag from Pop's. "Thank you sweetie," she said when she received the bag from him.
"See you tonight Josie," he said.
"Last time," she said back to her lover. And after that he left the room. Everyone was still looking at her in shock.
"Josie you and Reggie?" said Archie and broke the silence
She nodded in reply to him.
"We have known each other since kinder garden," said Archie
"Not me," Betty said, holding her hand in a gesture.
"Not me either," said Jughead to Archie.
"Okay, you win, but most have done it. So why do not we know about each other?"
"We can change it with a little secret and sin." Josie said.

They had moved the benches towards the walls so there is more freedom. The six students put in a circle on the floor to know each other's deepest, darkest secrets.

"I guess I'll start then," Josie said with a smile to the teenage group. "I and Reggie have been dating for a while in secret. In ... three months now I guess." she proudly said she had found her love.
"Why in secret," Archie asked curiously.
"Because of our parents ... They think we should be with people who are more within the" race "limits," she said with a sting of sadness in her voice.
"It's okay, Josie. My mother is laying in my love clothes as well." She says that she's going to take it with the most money. She's just looking at the surface, but I want to look at the depths. " Veronika's dreamy voice said.
"I understand what you're saying. I want to follow my dreams, but I'm afraid it's not going." I need to stay here, but I'm not getting it up. I want to stay here all my life. " said Archie.

A laugh came out of Betty's lips.
"Whole life? It's a long time. But maybe it's time to make a decision between music or baseboll?" she said with a mock laugh.

"No. My daddy is dying. He was shot ... By a man with a black hood, I saw him. It was like he had no heart or soul behind the green eyes." He said with a bitter voice.
"I've heard about them but I did not know it was your father Archie," said Veronika, putting his hand on Archie's knee.
"Yes, I heard about them but I never knew who was injured. I'm sorry Archie," Josie said with a sad voice. Archie shook his head and said, "Betty, your turn now"

Betty's POV:
Black hood, green eyes. I knew who it was. It was my biggest secret. He was my greatest secret. I want to tell him. Mildra Archie's concern, but he will hate me. And Daddy, he's killing me. He kills me without blinking. He tried to kill an innocent man so he would not even think about killing his worthless daughter.
"Betty your turn now" I hear a voice say.

But what should I say? I feel the panic grow in my chest. My breathing is getting harder. I feel anxiety coming up in my body.


3-person POV:

Everybody's eyes were on Betty. Her breathing became cooler and she looked almost scared of the teenagers around her.
"Are you okay?" asked Veronika worriedly.
"Um ..." Betty began, but Jughead interrupted her.
"Just tell them about the time you lit a dumpster on fire in the south side." Said he from the place opposite her.
"Why do not you tell them that you actually live in Sunnyside Trailer Park?" Said Betty to the group with his eyes fixed at Jughead.
"I thought you lived on Elm Region," Cheryl asked.
"Yeah, of course, becaus that's what Forsyth wants you to believe. You parade around the school in your varsity jacket, like a North sider. Do not kid yourself, you'll never escape the Southside. like your dad. Dawning six packs in your double wide. " She still looked at him with her eyes.
"Maybe. But I'm not gonna hit my kid. Not like my old man hits me. I told him I did not want to join his gang, that I wanted to be the first Jones to go to college. He did not like that. " he said while lifting his arm to clarify. Betty looked at him a bit badly for what she pointed out. She looked at him with compassion, as an equalizer. Not like the others they felt sorry for him. She just saw another mirror of herself in him. She was the last who could look down on him after all she had suffered, all that she had been exposed to.

Everyone was silent until Cheryl broke the silence.
"It just seems to be me ... The truth is that ... I'm a lesbian. I had a best friend in middle school, her name was Heather. She used to sleep over at my place all the time ... Until the time my mom got on us in the same bed. I never saw her. After they said my mother it was unnatural and untrue ... that I was dievent. " The tears now streamed down for her cheeks.
"I have to stay with your mother. It's virtually a pity and God sees everything. And he'll never forgive that sin," Veronika said sharply.
"At least, I do not clean rooms like your mother," she replied angryly. Veronika got up and threw herself over her. Now they rolled around on the floor. Betty watched out before jon stood up and said "here we go again"

"Okay, you guys have now denied four Saturday detenstion," said the director to them.

They were angry with each other but above all on their own.
