The rest of the day went by in a flash. I'm currently sitting on my king-sized bed at home. This is exactly what I need to make me think straight. I did my best to avoid Jason because I wasn't just ready to tear out someone's brain. The sight of him gets me get angry. Angry to the extent that I felt like giving him a brain refreshing slap. Ok! Maybe I went to far. I wouldn't give him a slap but I'll do something that would make him not forget me in a hurry. "What exactly are you thinking about that you didn't notice me standing at your door?" I looked to see who it was. I didn't know if I was meant to be happy or surprised at seeing Ari so I did the both. I can imagine how I looked. How I've missed her so much. It feels like I haven't seen her in months. What a bad friend I've been!

"I'm sorry. I didn't see you there. I was just lost in thought. Some things have been happening to me and it's making me weak. Please come sit." I offered, tapping my bed for her to sit. Yea! You got it right. She had been standing. The normal Ari wouldn't even wait for me to tell her to sit on my bed, she would just plop herself right in. This only shows that she isn't comfortable with me anymore and I take full responsibility for that. I pushed her away without knowing.

"Shit! Why are you crying? Did I do or say anything wrong? Does my presence already anger you? Don't worry, I'll come back when you're in a better mood." She said,getting up from my bed and making her way towards the door. I didn't even feel the tears dropping. I'm getting very emotional and I don't know if I'm meant to be happy or sad about it.

"No, please don't go. You'll make me feel worse. I know I've been acting like a bitch lately and I'm deeply sorry. I don't have any suitable excuse to give you right now. I'm guilty and I'm sorry. I pushed you away even when you were the only person that cared for me. I'm so so sorry." I apologised, trying my best not to look at her. I didn't want to see the hatred, anger or disgust in her eyes. This time, I couldn't control my tear glands. I guess they were also stronger than I am. She's the only friend I've had since God knows when and I pushed her away because of a guy. A guy that doesn't care about the way I feel. A guy that wouldn't mind getting an F in chemistry because he was paired up with me. This is just the height of it.

"You don't need to apologise Raven. I totally understand what you were going through, that's why I didnt disturb you during those times. I was just missing you so I decided to come check up on you. I'm not angry at you for any reason. I'm just angry at the fact that it's a guy that caused this and I think it's the right time to know what's going on with him. Like right now. If you want me to follow you, I'll totally love that. I just need to get my boxing gloves on incase he tries anything silly." She chuckled. You see what I'm saying. I just love her. I don't know how I got so lucky.

Cleaning off the already dried tears from my eyes, I hugged her without saying anything. It's not that I didn't want to, I just didnt have anything to say. She just took everything out of my mouth. I got happier when she returned the hug. I don't know how long we had been in that position but I didn't want it to end. The hug was just the perfect consolation I needed and I'm very happy that I got it from my one and only bestfriend, Ari.

"Okaayyy. Enough of the hugging, let's go teach that mama's boy a lesson." I heard someone say across the door. Loosening out of the hug, I saw my mum standing with her hands on her waist as if she was prepared to go for a battle. I looked at Ari to know if she understood what my mum just said because I'm very sure I heard something else. But to my surprise, Ari also gave me 'I don't understand what just happened' look. So I did what any other daughter would do to her loving mother. I went over to where my mum was standing and placed my hand softly on her neck to check if she was running a temperature but she wasn't. So I was forced to ask, "Mum, are you ok?" I was really worried that maybe she didn't take her medications and it was beginning to affect her.

"Let's go teach that mama's boy a lesson." She repeated, not moving from her previous position. Ok! She's really beginning to freak me out. "Mum,which mama's boy are WE going to teach a lesson?" I just had to ask since Ari just stood there dumbfounded. I just hope it's not who I'm thinking about. "Jason. The one you've been trying to talk to for 5years. The one that I told you sent a note. Our neighbour's son. What else can I use to describe him?" She responded, giving me the death glare I've been avoiding. The only thing I could ask myself was How? Why? When? How did she find out? Why does it have to be now? When did she find out? Urgh. Don't tell me my mum has been sneaking around because she's definitely going to pay.

"You don't need to bother your little head about how I got to find out. The only thing I'll tell you is 'a mother always has her ways'. But it's my turn to ask, "why didn't you tell me all this time? Why did you leave me in the dark? Did you think I wasn't going to help? Did you think I was going to overlook it? You're my only child for heaven's sake,Raven, I would do anything for you. I would go an extra mile just for you. You don't know how heartbroken I was when I got to find out what was going on. I thought we always tell ourselves everything so why was this one different? I wouldn't ask why you told Arianna because I know she's your bestfriend and you guys tell each other everything but I really want to know. Why?"

I couldn't help but feel bad that I made my mum cry. I'm just making the two  people that love me so much want to hate me. I held myself from crying. Or maybe I didn't have any tears left. I didn't know what to say so I went to hug her with tears already forming in my eyes. I thought they had finished😥. "I'm sorry" was the only thing I could say. According to what I've heard,saying 'I'm sorry' can go a long way.  I'm just hoping it does because I have nothing to say. Nothing at all. "Enough of the hugging, let's go teach that mama's boy a lesson." Ari repeated. I couldn't help but laugh. I've finally gotten my two bestfriends back. I couldn't be more happier.
