I get Sasha to the bus terminal right across the street where several other kids are waiting for the school bus, but instead of letting me wait with her,she stops and waves at me before turning to bond with the other children.
I am very proud of her and emotional at the same time, I think this is how mothers feel when they see their children off to their first day of school. Sasha is a real trouper though, and I know for a fact she will fit in like a button.
Unlike myself.
I sigh as I begin to trudge in the general direction of my stop,but then a car suddenly hoots and drives slowly beside me. I turn to see Fiona Rose rolling down her window,her face set in a wide grin. Big surprise.
"Hey Jenner! How are you today?" She asks in that loud viby voice of hers. I give her a close mouthed smile.
"I'm alright. How are you?" I respond,in the hopes that she might just leave me alone and drive off into the sunset. I even stop walking, but she stops too. Well damn.
"I'm grand! Let me give you a ride to school. I'm headed there anyways" she says,already opening the door to the sky blue jeep. I can't say no,so I hop in. Besides, she's helping me save busfare. She beams once at me before she begins to drive.
"So! Are you excited about school? Aren't you nervous? Its kind on unsettling isn't it? I'll bet you'll like it though.." she rambles,and I don't even get to answer her questions, which is fine by me. She continues to talk though, and I regret not bringing my iPod with me.
Bleh. So I have tto listen to her talk.
"...this is actually Adam's car,he was supposed to pick you up,but he feels that he's already gotten on your nerves enough, so he asked me to pick you up instead.."
She continues to say,and I just stare at her. Is she making sense? No,not really.
"He thinks you absolutely detest him"
she continues with a giggle.
Eh?
I raise my eyebrows for a second,but then I shrug it off. What does it matter if they discuss me anyway? I really shouldn't care.
"...he likes you though. I can tell. He looks at you in a way he's never looked at anyone. Not even me. I know this,because I've known him since forever,and I know exactly what he's thinking when he looks at someone" she goes on to shock me out of my skull.
I gape at her like a fish,and she casts me a glance,still grinning,before she explodes into tiny peals of laughter.
"You should see your face right now Jenner! If only I wasn't driving and remembered to take my camera" she giggles again.
Is this girl on some sort of medication? She glances at me again.
"I know what you're thinking. Its okay. Look, I've been with Adam for six years now,but we've been best friends for longer. I think we decided to be together out of habit,but we're just really better friends. And I'll be leaving England soon after I graduate anyway. I feel better knowing that we don't have to be together for convinience anymore. I think-"
"Stop!...okay,just stop"
I cut her off, and she glances at me sideways. I'm breathing out of sync,and I clench my jaw tightly,hoping I won't just blurt out something that will damage her forever.
The silence stretches for a bit,and I think, for the first time Fiona Rose looks serious.
" I suppose this is awkward for you...I do admit that I do get carried away sometimes" she says quietly.
You think? I feel like snapping,but my jaw is welded together. She sighs.
"Look, I really like you Jenner. And I do hope we can become friends...if I haven't freaked you out irreparably" she continues. I only notice then that we're at the parking lot of what I assume is Greenwich College. I'm itching to get out of this car,and leave Fiona with her weirdness. And that's exactly what I do. I open the door and run. Which is stupid,because I have no idea where I'm going, so just like I expect, I end up bumping into something tall.
"Easy there lass. You could hurt someone" a very familiar Irish accent says. I gulp,and I see the confusion,concern and questions in the green eyes I'm suddenly looking into.
"Jenner,please wait!" I hear the distant voice of my worst nightmare. Adam looks back at her for a second,then back at me. And then his expression clears.
I think I see realisation,and another emotion I cannot read.
"So I take it Fiona shared some of her theories with you then" he says quietly. I don't want to be here. I don't want to discuss this with him.
So I do the exact same thing I did to Fiona Rose. I turn and I run,but this time, I watch where I'm going.
