Three months later

" Abby !!" Cameron shouts from downstairs

I groan and act like I'm sleeping

I hear him and someone else mumbling in front of my bedroom door

Bet it's Karma

Me and joey haven't talked in a long time ago
He's been such a dick to me

I heard rumors about him dating Miss Emily
Some said that he's back to that ugly bitch

And some said ... he's on an open relationship

" Abby " Cameron opens the door and sits down next to me as I keep my eyes closed

He sighs " I know you're not sleeping "

I keep quiet , " Abby , I know everything "

" what do you know Cameron " I turn around and look at him

He takes a deep breath " I know what's going on at school , I know you aren't sick , I know everything and you can't keep this up " he says

A tear falls down my cheek and I wipe it immediately before he notices " I can't go to school and see joey with another girl " I can't help but cry when I imagine it

Sebastian walks in and look at me " she needs a doctor " he chuckles and walks out

" look , I'm worried about you " he says

" I'm taking you to school tomorrow " he adds

" but-" I say

" Abby you didn't go to school for a month now !" He interrupts me

He's right , I can't keep hiding

No escape from reality , it sucks but I have to stay strong " fine I'm going " I say

" alright now get ready " he stands up

" but it's 9:00 am " I say as I can feel my heart starts racing , I'm not ready I was lying

" yeah I know , your school is 5 minutes away " he gets out my room

I walk into the bathroom and wash my face , I can do it

No I can't

Fuck

I wear my black hoodie and black leggings , and my white shoes

I take my phone from my night stand and shove it inside my backpack

I walk downstairs and say my good morning

" Abby we haven't seen you in a long time " Sebastian says

I roll my eyes at him

" he's right , you've been in your room for weeks , we've missed you " Cole says

Cole has been so nice to me... and Sebastian is the exact opposite

Did I forget to mention that I'm already 18 , and I didn't celebrate this year

I've changed.. a lot

This city has tough me a lot of things

I'm not the old Abby anymore

" okay let's go " Cameron says as I walk out the house with him

I walk into the building and everyone I know was staring at me , this is so awkward

I walk into my class and take a deep breath

I spot joey's sitting with a new girl

He looks at me and I look away , I sit down next to Brandon and he smiles " hey "

" hey " I smile back

" we've missed you " he winks at me

" I don't think so " I look at joey then sigh

" he's not dating her " he looks at miss Emily while walking into the room

" I know , but I'm sure he's dating someone " I say

" I don't know , I hate joey " he says

" facts " I say as the bell rings and we start writing down notes

+

It's break time and I'm not hungry at all

I actually lost weight , more than 10 kg I guess

And it's all because of joey , the love of my life

Who doesn't give a damn about me

I walk into the cafeteria and sit down on my own and I pray that no one notices my presence

Gosh I'm such a broken bitch

" hey " Jacob sits next to me

Fuck

" hey " I fake a smile

" how are you doing " he asks

" pretty good " I sigh

He looks at joey and the new girl then at me " what's wrong ?"

" I actually don't know why did he do that to me " I try not to sob on this table now

He rubs my back " it's alright Abby "

I put my head on his chest and start to cry " I'm fine"

He hugs me tight and I could feel all the eyes are on me

I hate when everyone pays attention to me

He pulls out the hug " look why don't you sit next to me on the next period ?"

" yea " I rub my eyes

" now why don't you wipe these tears off and eat your lunch ?"

" alright " I sigh

He kisses my forehead and smiles " I swear to god he doesn't deserve a tear from your beautiful eyes "

I blush " wow that's not true "

" damn isn't it ?"
