Times Are Hard

chapter 7 - The day of the prank

Belinda's POV

I was so excited for the costume party I woke up three times at the middle of the night

My alarm finally rang

I took my bath and brushed my teeth and put on my costume and had breakfast hurriedly

And went outside and said good bye to my mum

I texted Betty and sent her a picture of my costume

I got to school has I walked the hallway and everyone started giggling and they didn't have costumes on neither did Betty

I walked up to Betty quickly and grabbed her hand

Why aren't you wearing a costume! I said

Shut up!hahaha you didn't really think you were my friend right unfortunately am taken by Emily you are so dumb get a life!! Said Betty

I started crying I couldn't stop maybe she was right about me being dumb to think I will make any friends here

The bell rang for class lucky for me I had extra clothes

I went to class people still giggling I stayed at the back of the class alone .

Why would anyone go to all those trouble just to hurt my feelings I wished I never came to this school well now am sure am not ever going to be anyone just a loser I lost in thought until Mrs Smith woke me up is anything wrong she asked looking at the tears on my face

Nothing I said lying

The school bell rang and I went to the School's park

Where I sat down in a small bench thinking until a girl named Sandra she had beautiful brown hair and has blue hazel eyes and a wore a orange crop top with a tummy jeans which was black

Hi said Sandra sorry about you know

No it's OK it's my fault I was stupid to think anyone will want to be my friend

Hey don't say that you great has you are right now you just need a makeover said Sandra

I tried to smile

Why don't you give me your number asked Sandra

Sure I would love too

So what you doing on Saturday asked Sandra

Nothing I have no friends

Okay we are going for girls day we go to the salon ,do our hair,manicure and buy new clothes because your fashion sense is low sorry to say said Sandra

Yeah I guess so my mum doesn't really know about fashion too

Well you are in good hands said Sandra and said bye

Well at least I am getting along with someone but I must not be to attached until I trust her like what happened with Betty I thought
