"Are you...S..serious?" I practically whisper.
"Remember I told you that I wanted to give a shot at modeling." She continues
"Yeah so..?" I interupt her .
"Soo.. I am going to take a year off and focus on that." She worriedly states as she throws this bombshell on me just 2 hours before school.
My brain needs time to process these new changes. It not that I don't want her to live her dreams or be happy but Its just the fact that I am gonna be a 100% alone WLECian in BEHS which is not good in any scenario that I can assure.
My anxiety level is at the red mark now. But I also realize how all this may seem like to her.
So..I take a moment to grab a hold on myself and speak back to her as she patiently waits for me over the call.
"Hey! Its okay...I wish I had called you sooner and I am so proud of you. I just hope you know that and its okay, I will manage obviously, I am a big girl now..but I do want you to know that I love you and I will always support you." I assure her.
"Oh my god!! I love you" she says in a mellifluous tone.
"And also you don't need to worry on being alone, I already told Yug to take good care of you." She states.
"Yug? You mean Yugendra Verma your ex boyfriend? What the hell Jolene?" I anxiously state again.
Yugendra Verma, is a boy with tall stature, strong physique, brown-skin, black-hair and dark-eyes. He is also the big bad asshole of BEHS who broke Jolene's heart for a school junior. I first met him at Jolene's 14th birthday and trust me guys when I say he is bad news, he is BAD NEWS. I still remember when Jolene used to ring me up at 3:30 in the morning and cry over the phone saying she misses him. And that wasn't the end of their story. They had to remain friends after breakup because they had the same friend circle in school. But I honestly hated this guy for what he does to her and yet again they have had this on again and off again thing for the past two years which is why I am in no position to judge him.
"Heyy.. I know you don't like him but he is the only person you know in that school and I know he can be an asshole sometimes..Hell most of the times but in all he is a nice human being and don't worry about anything.. its just the first day of high school. Chiillll... You are making me feel anxious!" Jolene calmly states pulling me away from my thoughts.
"Okay then! I will be calm. And I am getting late now. I will call you when I get back.. Byee and see you soon" I state.
"Yes babe! Byee Love ya... take care and worry less" she chuckles.
"Yeah.. yeah!" I assent and disconnect the call.
Its almost 10 now so I go outside to take out my rose-beige coloured ladybird bike which is a quite an unique colour and is one of my favourites. Yes I will bike myself to school. Cycling is something I was always fond of. Its both a good exercise and a nice way to protect the environment.
After the 20 minute ride.. I am finally here, Here as in the BIRDSEYE HIGH SCHOOL.
The huge bone coloured gates are opened for students to enter and a brown skinned short man with a huge moustache and a dad bod who I guess is the security guard is asking the almost 17 year olds to not make a single noise as we are still in the primary side of the school campus.
I step inside the BEHS campus for the first time and honestly it looks good! The main building is tortilla coloured with umber highlights. There is a huge football field in the middle of the campus. The buildings stand in circular pattern giving the field a stadium like feature. The buildings are almost 4 storeyed and higher secondary building is in the extreme back of the campus with different sections of Science, Arts and Commerce. To reach to the science section of the building we will have to cross over the primary and secondary school buildings but before that I need to find the bike rack for my ladybird and yes I have opted for Science which I realize I had forgotten to ask the man at gates.
I go back out side to ask the security about the parking and he points me the direction. At the back of the rack a few boys and girls of no particular age group are just hanging around and I think they are smoking weed or something. As I park my ladybird, I hear a familiar voice behind me calling my name. I just hope that this is the person I think it is.
"Avya? Its you right? Remember me?" the heavy male voice curiously states.
