"All the memories come back, but she won't."

John's P.O.V.

Ever since I threw her nail paint out of the window, Ash hasn't really been too happy. All she is doing is puffing her cheeks. In fact, she also ate those pancakes with puffed cheeks. Alright. I get it she loves her stuff. I mean, if she can get mad at Katie for using her filer, she has the right to kill me for what I did. No wait. She doesn't have the RIGHT to kill me. But, I know she could have done that. I was lucky enough that she didn't.

But that has not been the thing I have been thinking about. The only thing I thought after leaving her house was about her parents; only one thing going in my head- Why did they leave her?

Maybe, they were not her real parents and so they didn't love her anymore. Maybe she must have insulted them out of frustration and so they were hurt and they left her. Or maybe, she got into some bad company, so they were temporarily away from her to teach her a lesson. Maybe, there is some problem they gotta sort out, and they didn't want her to know their problem, so they left her like that. Or maybe, they were gonna die?

Well whatever it is, I know she is hurt. I know she is alone, and I know she needs someone. Even I do, because I know what it feels being alone in life.

After I reached home, I got a message from Elliz Ellis.

Meet us at Starbucks, Bond Street...
Tmrrw, 10.00 am!;)

'Gr8! C u tmrw:)' I replied.

I was so damn tired that I went straight to bed after changing into my comfy stuff.


*Wednesday*

"Ugghhhh." I woke up with that goddamn dream again!

*Alarm clock rings*

"You are late, you lazy butt!" I said, looking at that alarm clock woth frustration, which said 8.30 am.

Things have not been so great since the past few days. So, I decided to get fresh and go to Starbucks, to hangout with my old buddies.

I had a shower, and got into my black hoodie, ripped jeans, black converse and the most important thing, my Vortic watch. I went into the kitchen to make some coffee, but then I realized, you are gonna go to Starbucks, and although your coffee is better than theirs, you are going to meet your friends. Have coffee with them!

I got the newspaper inside and left for Starbucks in my black Ford.

As I went in, I saw the cafe didn't have a lot of people in there. Four tables were occupied. One in the corner, by an old couple. One near the entrance by a young couple. One in the middle was occupied by four young students. And in the far end, I spotted Adam and Elliz Ellis.
