Zoe, is an 18 year old senior student at Little Elm High. She is smart, sweet, beautiful but didn't have the right self esteem to claim it. She used to be the girl with pigtails, lots of freckles, glasses and braces. You can probably tell that her childhood wasn't that neat. Well, it was for awhile, until the confession happened. Oh wait, let me slow down for you. Zoe hasn't been alone, she had a bestfriend named Oliver. They pretty much grew up together. They were bestfriends right from the sandbox. They went to preschool together, then kindergarten, they had swimming and gym classes together, piano lessons, they even had schedule of playtime together, they had matching everything, and their friendship went on and on.... not forever though. At the age of 10, Zoe claimed to be inlove with her bestfriend, and when she finally thought it was time, she declared her feelings to Oliver. But, for some reasons, Oliver didnt say anything about it. He just stood there, watched her nervously waiting for his response, then.... he ran away. When Oliver left, nobody protected Zoe from the bullies. She was bullied since the 6th grade all through middle school. But then she decided to be strong for High School. So she started fighting back. She was still bullied though. This is why she wanted to get out of school asap. And this year is finally the last year, she thinks its going to be just the same year all over again. Oh but she is wrong, because, this year, everything is about to change for Zoe...
Oliver is going to come back and make things right between him and Zoe. Why did he leave? Where did he go? Will Zoe forgive him? If Oliver wasn't able to explain everything to Zoe, MAYBE THIS TIME, He will.
(Original Version, New Version in Progress that I suggest waiting for if you'd like)
"I'm sorry for your loss." I hear and look over to see Oliver, "I've been in a similar situation, I may not have lost someone this way, but I definitely did lose someone. My family and I will be here for you and will help you get through this." He says biting his lip.
I smile a bit. "Thank you Oliver, hearing you say that really means a lot to me." I tell him.
I can barely see Oliver look back through my tear-filled eyes but then I feel two arms wrap around me.
