Lonely, Once More (Draft!) [BOOK 1]

Chapter 12 - Messages

"Hey, read while I wait, take your time, ok?" Teana asked. "Kk," replied Nina quickly. "Pls, pls, pls," she prayed. Tears poured out of her eyes, no new message, it's only Cinnea, Leo, Luna and Emi chatting about Cinnea's dog. After all, did they forget her, they wouldn't, but they said they were going to send messages and texts, but nothing happened, not even there icon or any sight of them. There was only one thing that could of happened, either there d-died, but no, why would they, Nina thought. Or...she rubbed her eyes on her wet sleeve. Or they left her, abandoning her, but no, they wouldn't. She went to the bathroom, washing her face, but her eyes and nose were still red. She turned the ringtone off and left the bedroom. She walked to Teana's room, where she would be found reading. "Hey Nin-Hm, what did they say?" asked Teana. "Er-She wouldn't lie.-No response," said Nina plainly. Teana's smile turned into a poker face. "Well...maybe they're busy enough to forget you," said Teana. "Anyways, let's read," Teana said, patting her on the back. Nina didn't dare look into Teana's eyes. "Not to be rude, just to forget and be happy," Teana said with a shrug. Nina knew she was trying to help, but in this case, it made it a bit worse. Teana handed Nina the same book she read before. "you're on a great part! She almost dro-" said Teana. "I really don't mind if you spoil it, I'm guessing it's Floyd right?" asked Nina. "Nope," said Teana. "Harper?" Nina asked. Teana nodded and continued reading on her bean bag. "It's ok, I don't need a bean bag," said Nina when Teana moved aside to provide space. Teana nodded, her eyes focused on the book. They contunied reading for the next two hours. Teana's mom went to there room. "Be active, were you here for two hours?!" she asked. They nodded. "Could we go outside mom?" asked Teana. "Of course, now shoo!" she said. "Ok," Teana said, "mom, just a sec, let me finish this chapter-?" "No! Go!" Teana's mom replied, pointing to the door. They dropped their books slowly, peaking at the last few words, then headed to the door. "Good, put your shoes on," said Teana's mom. Nina and Teana put their outdoor shoes and headed out the door. "Oh, wait! Nina, you wait for me at our backyard while I get the wicker patio chairs, mom brought them back inside before you came, incase it rained. Forgot to bring them out last time, I mean we're going to spead the day out here," said Teana as Nina nodded along excitedly . They have three yellow wicker patio chairs without ottoman. "Let's sit," said a voice behind. Nina turned around, finding Teana holding two wicker patio chairs. "Great! Thanks!" squeaked Nina.
