The opposite sex was created to anger me. Okay, maybe not me personally, but they make me so angry.
I have been sitting there spitting nails, with my jaw tense and glaring at anything any moment I get.
I am seething, if I had been in a cartoon, I would have had a red face and an over-animated grimace.
And to add to that, my Zack was ignoring me, maybe he was ill again, or away again, or his phone was dead again. He said he was keen, but he sure wasn’t acting it, and I was having second thoughts about what I could’ve done and said.
This app had brought me nothing but misery, especially this week, with the barrage of arseholes talking to me. I wanted to hit something or someone.
I didn’t know how I could have stopped this situation.
This app had given me life experience- helped me to understand the male mind- and I definitely regret that.
And Ted, the man with the stupidest name on the whole fucking App was ignoring me. Ok, he had spent all night awake, but so had I. and we had made plans. Did that mean nothing to him?
Had I lost my touch? Was God punishing me?
I just needed someone to fall in love with me.

It's the last year of high school, and everything has changed . . .
*****
After a summer spent in the Philippines, Lara Dela Cruz is eager to start her senior year and, most importantly, reunite with her three besties. But what she did not expect was to show up on the first day of school to all three of her friends now in relationships. Fighting for their attention, catching some new and confusing feelings for long-time frenemy James, and wading through the pressures of post-high-school plans all have Lara reeling. And to make matters worse, Lara's beautiful and untrustworthy cousin conveniently appears and wiggles her way right between her and James' budding relationship. Feeling like a third wheel in more ways than one, Lara must learn to accept that change is inevitable, love is complicated, and being the odd one out is sometimes where inner power is found.
