Devanie's POV

Maybe this wasn't a good idea.
It was never a good idea.
"Dad's been hospitalized. He had a heart attack and fell down the down the stairs." My older sister called me just as I left Pryer. "What?"Ever since Kani got married dads body has been getting weaker.
Why is this happening?
I stood in the public restroom of the hospital. I stared at myself in the mirror. I had sweat on my forehead from running and my clothes were out of place.
17 missed calls.
I don't want to deal with this right now. Is that why he couldn't answer me that day, because he did truly like her? I was so stupid. Pryer kept calling my name after I saw him. What annoyed me the most was that Auroras expression was as if she won something.
And she did, she won.
'This isn't a fairytale. Not everything will go your way.'
What was I expecting?
"Dad's gonna need to be in the hospital for a few days. They want to monitor his heart." Safari said and I looked at my dad who lied comfortably on the hospital bed. His eyes were closed and his glassed rested on the side table.
"I'm glad he's okay." I said and Samantha patted my head. My mom watched my dad quietly. Her leg was shaking impatiently in her chair. She was on edge. "We should let him rest." Safari said and left the room while I followed her close behind.
"Devanie!"
Pryer...?
I turned around to see He feng gasping for air as he was running. "I heard what happened. Is he alright?" He wiped his forehead with the back of his hand."He's fine, thanks for coming He feng." Samantha said and smiled at him and walked towards the waiting area.
"Vanie, I saw it." I whipped my head towards Feng instantly. He looked at me sadly and put his hand on my head." He was never good for you anyway. Just let it go." He put his hands in his pocket and started walking towards the waiting area.
Yeah....
Forget about him.
Pryer's POV

I miss Devie already.
It's already been 3 minutes since the bell rang so just as I said I'll wait for her. I waited in the empty classroom at the end of the hallway. I always come here when I'm bored.
Then the door cracked open. I almost jumped out of my skin thinking it was a teacher."I'm sorry I'll get to class, please don't tell my parents." I said and I bowed my head to avoid eye contact.
"You're so easily scared it's hilarious."
I brought my head up and I felt my body go cold.
"Aurora."
She started walking towards me and I started walking backwards. I was backed into the wall and Aurora placed her hand on my chest."Aurora what are you doing here? I told you--"
"It's over? Yeah right. You love me." She said and started unbuttoning her small sweater."N-no I don't." I said and she just smirked at me. "You hesitated." She said and placed her lips on my cheek for a brief moment and pulled away. My face held a horrendous expression as I put my hands on her shoulders.
"Stop, Aurora."
"But, why~" She said and right before she could unbutton the last button on her shirt my eyes were met with brown ones from across the room. The door wide open stood a girl with a floppy afro, her blue sweater and her blue and white nikes. Her face held disgust as mine held shock.
"Devie!" I yelled right before she turned away. Aurora stepped away from me and I immediately ran out the door. I watched as Devie basically sprinted out the hallway. Her hair flowing with her as she ran.
Then Aurora grabbed my arm." Babe what's wrong?" Aurora said and looked up at me with her bright blue eyes.
"What is wrong with you? Why do you do this to me? Stay away from me AND Devanie. You DISGUST me!" I yelled angrily and she looked like she was about to cry, but before I could see a tear fall I turned away from her face. She ran back into the classroom crying loudly.
I looked up the empty hallway to see He Feng. I froze in my spot. Did he see?
He slowly clapped his hands and smirked at me."So you finally broke her heart. I'm surprised it lasted this long. Better luck next time play boy." He said and placed his hand on my shoulder before walking away.
Better luck next time....playboy...
