No One Accepts Me

Chapter 17

After that being-introduced-to-the-parents-incident, I decided to stay at home and relax. Just be anti-social and not communicate to any human being at all. Ha! Who am I kidding?! People like me love to talk!

As I'm channel surfing on the television, my phone vibrates beside me. I check the screen and it's a message from Terence.

Meet me at the park in 5 minutes.

I switch off my phone and yell, "I'm going out!" And stand up then walk to the neighborhood park. What could Terence want from me? Most of all, why would he want me to walk all the way to the park just so that he can tell me that he found a good movie to watch or a cat video he wants to show me.

Maybe he's gonna tell me that he has found nothing about Chris cheating on me. Chris explained to me during the party that it was his cousin that Terence saw in the shop. Makes sense for her to kiss his cheek. They're cousins and that's normal, right? Or is it just me?

I reach the park and I can see Terence sitting on the swing looking at the distance. Oh, is he in one of those moods where he just feels super down and want to talk to somebody? I feel you, bro.

He sees me and gives me a small smile.

"Hey, what's up?" I sit on the swing next to him.

No reply.

Hm, he is acting weird. He usually answers enthusiastically...

"Hey." He finally says.

"Terence, what's wrong?" I ask. He takes a deep breath, there is a long silence between us. I hope he did not feel offended because I gave him a BVB t-shirt, a pair of skinny jeans and converse for his birthday last week... Oops?

"I don't know how to explain it." He finally replies.

Yeah, it's definitely my gift.

"If you want, you can bring back the clothes I bought for your birthday. You don't have to wear them. I can just give them to Chris."

He takes a deep breath. No... Maybe it's not the clothes.

"Um, is this about Chris cheating on me? He already--"

"Yes, I know. It was his cousin. He called me just to clear things up."

I nod my head. "Well, then tell me."

He takes a deep breath.

"Okay, dude, seriously. Stop stalling by taking deep breaths and just spill."

He takes another deep breath. Oh for goodness sake!

"Have you ever wondered?" There we go.

"Wondered what? Why there are bastards in this world?"

"Can you try to be serious for once?!" He yells at me. Wow, that certainly never happened before. When he was pissed, he usually just talks normally... He never yelled at me like that before.

I look down on the grass... What did I do?

I feel him stare at me, but when I look at him, he's looking behind me. I look to where he's looking, but there's nothing...

"I'm tired of him and I'm tired of everybody!" He kicks the ground and looks down. He sighs, "Brad forced me to tell you this, 'Have you ever wondered why you're a fucked up, beautiful girl?' And he also told me to give you this." He takes out a piece of folded paper out of his pocket and gives it to me. I take the paper and put it in my pocket. I don't even want to read the note. I'll l probably throw it away once I go home.

"Just read the note." He says, before standing up and leaving me alone on the swing. Okay, well air don't want to be yelled at again, so I'll read the note...

Well, this is depressing. Not only that I've seen Terence incredibly pissed for the first time, but got something from Brad. I thought he was done with me. I thought that I would never hear anything from him again. But no. He's back in my life and I feel like I'm falling down a hole again; in the darkness without a light. Honestly, when will Brad ever stop?!

- - - - -

Holy fucking piece of shit. One week break is over and it's back to school. You would think I would call school something else this time, but I'm honestly not in the mood for it right now. After all, it got ruined after I read the note from Brad. Heh, that bastard.

It said:

I'll l wait for you at the park later tonight ;)

Does he really think that I still like him? After all the shit he has put me through?! How many holes are in his head?! Holy aunt Jemima, I've never met anyone more stupid than him. Well, there's me, but that doesn't count.

I walk my way towards the front door of the school.

Just as I enter, I see Terence walk to a classroom that is not our first class at all. Of course, being the curious cat I am, I start to investigate. I look in the classroom that Terence entered and, conveniently, no ones there except for Terence and Brad.

"Did you tell her?" I hear Brad.

"Yes." I hear Terence answer back.

"Give her this." I take a peak, and I see Brad giving Terence another piece of paper. Oh God, please don't be filled with hearts and "Brad <3 Carrie". I shiver from the thought and almost felt like puking. I hear footsteps coming closer and I start to walk forward, pretending that I did not do anything suspicious. Once I passed the door, Terence calls for me. I turn around.

"Here's another one." He gives me the piece of paper that Brad gave him and walks away. Honestly, I do not know where this guy could be going. Who knows, he might have found a short cut. Like, a black hole short cut or something. Or maybe he's a mole, and digs through--you know what, I better stop.

I shrug it off and walk to my fist class.
