The Dead Flower

Chapter Four

Hell again and that's what I call my school. As I walk to my locker my three people by my side and guess what all the  stares down the hall.

'Carrie why don't this people mind their own business and stop staring at us.'I sneered at my sisters question and muttered 'Losers moove there is no movie here... Stop staring'
Guess what the three idiots called my best friends had the same schedule as mine. Just don't ask why.

My life had taken a turnmoil where I came from friendless to having my three best friends back. It at least helped me ease the pain that had been installed by the same people I love. My parents. They neglected me when I refused to join the business in which they were famous for. My other family members had agreed to join the business.

What people didn't know was that I was  from the famous Ans $ Sern  company. I love always kept it as a secret. When the  three people appeared in my life once again. I just knew that my secrets will soon be out.

I had begged them to dress casually today not their usual classy clothes they   usually wore. As my day went by I realised that everyone started started staring extra at me. I became extra cautious at my appearance. My sister was a replica of me. Rumours had already started spreading like usual but were more today.

During lunch, Reid walked with me to where I always sat. Don't get me wrong I loved my privacy but today I felt extra happy to at least to have company. He has the same lunch as me both of us fries. After about a minute Nathan and Karina came right at our table with crumbled clothes.I looked from one of them to the other. And when I looked at Reid I realised he was also staring.

' Care to explain where the two of you were... ?'kudos Reid I also wanted to ask the same question.

'Mhhh... I was... Nathan and I were at the washroom... 'Karina answered unsurely.

'Christian Nathan  Padilla and where the hell did you take my sister 'I feigned seriousness in order to scare him.

'Kitten let them be or do you want me to also take you somewhere private. 'I found myself blushing as Reid said said that.

I glared at him only to find him smirking at the two lovebirds. I never believed that anyone could love me coz I was just unlovable. After my parents made it clear that I was unworthy and also  I could not bring any capital to their business. I loved them but they just dissapointed me. They abandoned me after I proved myself being useless.

I knew that no one loved me. After they decided to send me away from their world. For them to avoid shame. That's when I learnt that I was a business deal to my parents. They all pretended to love me to make me a better transaction.
'Kitten are you there.. Kitten '

I was brought back when I saw the concerned look on their faces. Reid wiped something from my face that I realized I was crying .
' Sorry guys I have to use the washroom.. ' I said as I got up and running out of the cafeteria. This is the second time I had run out again in two days.
'Carrie wait... 'Karina came after me with a concerned look.
She hugged me as she reached me .Thats when I realised that I needed it the  most.
'You okay Sissie... '
' I think so but I just don't know. '
'Everything will be alright do you wanna talk about it. '
' Some other time not today '
We silently headed to where the boys were only to find them with concerned looks .Reid ran to me engulfing me  in a hug making me almost loose balance.

'Are you okay sweetheartheart .Dont ever run again okay. You scared the shit out of me. Okay kitten....'
'You know you are bluffing right. '

That's what made the three of us burst out in laughter showing a confused Reid. To say that was what lifted my mood was a an understatement, I was happy to have my crew back.
