chapter 2

One mystery Cheryl still can't figure out is why some people are happy and not her? They're always laughing, smiling and she is always crying, just sad. Why others have friends and she doesn't? Why others can be happy and not her? Is it because she doesn't deserve it? Everyone thinks that being the most popular kid in high school would say that she's the happiest but nobody knows her. The only person who knew her was her twin brother, Jason. But he died 1 year ago. He was her only friend. Always here for her no matter what.

Tears fell down on her face, as every night in her bed with her headphones and a sad music on, that was her life. Thinking about why she can't be happy once. Maybe the girl at Pops was her angel. Maybe she can call her. She had nothing to lose after all. Cheryl takes the paper and taps the number on her phone. After 3 rings, she finally can hear Toni's voice.

"Hello?"

"Hi... it's Cheryl..."

"Oh hi, are you okay?"

"Hm not really" she said crying.

"Tell me, I'm here for you"

"How can I trust you? How can I be sure you won't judge me?"

"Because I'm not like this Cher"

"I don't even know who you are"

"Well, this is a good way to learn who I am. We can talk about each other's all night long if you want"

"Good idea"

"What do you want to know about me?"

"Why you came to me at Pops?"

"You were beautiful and I saw that you were alone"

"You are too"

"I'm what? I wanna hear it"

"You're beautiful"

"Glad that you think that"

Cheryl loves the way she can speak with Toni even she doesn't know her well. Because for the first time in her life, someone talk to her and to not criticize her. That was so rare. They talk non-stop until the redhead fell asleep at probably 4am. After Toni realized that she was sleeping, she listened the angel's respiration during 2 minutes and hung up.

The next morning, the sun rays woke Cheryl. She saw that her phone was still next to her and she suddenly remember the last night and smile at it. Toni. Her name resounded in her head. But she can't stop to ask herself what Toni found in her? She was just a broken girl who had nothing to interest someone.

Cheryl does as every morning, prepare her for school and leave her room and only goodbye to her Nana. She was all she has and she loved her more than anything. She can't imagine a day without her. At school, she took her stuffs and went to the meeting room where everyone was.

"Cheryl you look so tired, are you okay?" asked Ronnie.

"Yeah I'm. But since when you care if I am or not?"

"Don't be rude to me, I try to be nice to you. But as always you mess it."

She was right. She was always like that. Even when someone look nice to her. Maybe that was just her, the way she was. Her history class was bored like hell. She decided to take her phone and send a message to Toni.

[Hi] -c

[I see that you can't forget me] -t

[Never aha] -c

[You don't have class?] -t

[Yes but I'm bored so I talk to you] -c

[Do I take it to a bad or a good way?] -t

[A good] -c

[Alright, thanks] -t

[For what?] -c

[For thinking about me] -t

[Your entire fault] -c

[I had a good night yesterday with you] -t

[Me too] –c

[I want to see you. Cause yesterday it was short] -t

[Well, when?] -c

[At 8? Pops?] –t

[Of course, I will be there] –c

[I have to talk to you later, my teacher don't stop to look at me] –c

[Shit, ttyl Cher] –t

After her morning periods, Cheryl went to the canteen and sat with the core four and Kevin as every day. She has nobody to eat with so she was every time with them even if they weren't her friends.

"Ok Cheryl, I see the way you looked at your phone in history class, who were you talking to?" asked Kevin enthusiastic.

"Nobody"

"I'm not stupid, tell me"

"I was talking to my friend"

"Like a friend who have abs and you have a crush on him"

"Not like that, and by the way she's a girl and just my friend"

"If you say it, but I remembered your eyes"

"Stop with that"

The rest of the day was just more bored and long. She can't wait for her rendezvous with Toni. When she came home her mother take her arm and stop her. It's hurt but Cheryl didn't say nothing and look at her.

"Don't come here tonight, I have some business."

Cheryl just rolled her eyes and went into her room. She's gonna figured out the problem after. Her mother won't let mess her night. Because the young redhead want to have a good one, a good moment with the girl who take her heart since not even 24hours, she wanted to be more close to her.
