One week after the Juju and Harper incident

--

It was a breezy day at Sulphur Springs High School when Harper arrived back on campus after being away for at least 3 days due to her nose condition, which was far more problematic than originally thought. After school that day, Harper had to go for a doctor's visit because of Juju's actions. The end of the 6th period had come as Harper and Griffin did their best to stay away from Juju in class and on the athletic field. Everyone knew about what Juju had done, yet her parents still remained unaware. It was sad since Harper and Juju were once good friends; the last time they interacted was when they were each eight years old. Back then, Harper's house visit with Juju's family went over quite well with all parties involved. However, over time their relationship faded as Harper flourished in her dancing career while Juju harbored feelings for Griffin. This only made matters worse between them as they both struggled to face each other knowing who the other liked now. Mrs. Dunn, Mrs. Campbell, and Mr. Campbell especially warned everyone in school against letting them interact too closely with each other. The hallway grew chaotic with students filing out of gym classes right as Griffin pecked Harper on the cheek before she departed to attend theatre class by herself while he stayed behind with the group 

walking down the corridor. Unfortunately, it wasn't long before Juju caught up to him.

"Griffin!" Juju said as they walked

"Stay away from me, Caspian" Griffin said, not even making eye contact with her

"Griffin? what's up with you?"

"What's up with me?" Griffin mocked

"What's up with you?" He spoke, annoyed

"Griffin, if this is about Harper, then who cares" Juju scoffed

"She deserved it"

"Juju, you made Harper have a severe nosebleed, and you bruised her wrist" Griffin pointed out

"It wasn't severe" Juju sneered

"She went to urgent care" Griffin reminded

"It's not my fault Mrs. Dunn was being over dramatic, and took her to a doctor"

"It was gushing" Griffin referred

"Whatever" Juju scorned

Griffin just rolled his eyes and walked away. Away from Juju.

Juju sighed, before spotting her friend. Destiny.

Juju walked through the horde of students, to get over to her

"Hey Destiny," Juju said, with a beam

"Hey"

"Griffins still mad at me," Juju said, looking down

"Of course he is, you literally caused so much damage to his girlfriend" Destiny spoke

Juju raised an eyebrow

"Who's side are you on?"

Destiny stayed silent

Juju rolled her eyes. "Anyways, I was thinking, you have Harper's number right?"

"Um... yeah"

Juju wore a satisfied smile as she recalled informing Harper that she had a week to end her relationship with Griffin, yet they remained together. It was time for her to take decisive action.

"Great, ask her if you could come over"

"Why?" Destiny questioned, pulling out her phone from her pocket
