ELFREDA'S POV
I can't believe those three girls thought I have a crush on ryan. Its so obvious that I don't feel anything for him he's not even a friend.
Then why did you sleep at his house!
Because I didn't have a choice!
Yes you did!
No I didn't
Yes you did!
No I didn't. OK its official I've gone crazy and literally arguing with myself, have I stooped that low?.
Am currently in English class where mr Jonathan is currently talking about the book, Great Gatsby. We've treated this book a million times I don't still get the point.
"The main themes of this book are more larger than just romance. There is hollowness of the upper class, complicated love.....". At some point I had to zone him, He's right about the love part. Love is complicated it puts you in a place it can't get you out from.
Classes go like this throughout the day, with me zoning out teachers and dreaming of myself in a room full of art and music.
"Elfreda?". Someone calls as I make it out of my last class for the day.
"Hey mia". Mia chan is an chinese American ive known since I came into this school. She lived in london most of her childhood before she came here to continue highschool. She had black shoulder length hair with brown highlights. She was on blue jeans and a see through white shirt.
"How was your trip to your home country?" I ask and her face brightness up.
"It was great but I do prefer here more than china but anyways. Shut up about me, what's going on with you?".
"Nothing". I say a little too quick.
"Don't give me that crap. I saw melissa and her witches hovering over you this morning". Note she didn't say witches just removed W and add B.
Trying to change the topic I ask, "How are you related to Melissa again?". Mia immediately sulks.
"My mum's cousin's cousin is her mum. We're not exactly related our mums just know each other well... I don't even.. Wait a minute you are trying to change the topic here". Mia says and points a finger at me.
"Mia I'll tell you when you need to know okay?". I don't want her worrying or teasing about having a crush and not even sure exists.
"OK. But whatever it is don't over think it. I have to go now, my mom's Making pizza I have to be there or else she'll blow the kitchen up." She says and waves me good bye, at least she has her mum to go home to, I haven't seen my mum in 3months and my dad in 6. The only time we get to have a proper family dinner is when all 6 of us are around and that barely happens.
I bring out my phone to text alfreda, I havent seen her today. The only classes I have with all is maths and English and I didn't see her in anyone.
Me, 3:30pm: where are you?
She replies immediately
Alfreda, 3:30: Am in the arena, on the bleachers.
