Chapter 3 - CHAPTER 3.

Jamie searched for Richelle during break time, to no avail, but finally found her at the hallways.

"Hey, I think you dropped this" ,Jamie said giving her her necklace.

"Yea, clumsy me" Richelle says trying to put the necklace on.

"Lemme help you" Jamie said putting the necklace around her neck.

"It seems you can't stay away from my boyfriend can't ya" Chloe blasted out as she came closer to them.

"Well, you don't tell me which side of the road I can walk on", Richelle replied boldly.

"How dare you talk back to me you useless piece of shit" Chloe said in anger and gave Richelle a slap.

In anger Richelle spears Chloe to the ground and starts punching her.

As the two girls struggle Jamie tries to separate the two girls, the crowd becomes larger as they yelled Chloe's name supporting her, the guidance counselor Mr. Rogers steps in to break the fight.

The two girls we invited to Mr. Rogers office, his office was neatly arranged with pictures of his wife and child.

"Nice office you got here" says Richelle trying to release the tension.

"That's not the reason why we here, is it"? Mr. Rogers required.

"No sir" responded Richelle.

"Please take a seat ladies" Mr. Rogers says as he walks towards a shelf containing records of the children.

"Mrs. Flynn right"?, Mr. Rogers asked Richelle.

"Yes sir", Richelle answered.

"I've never seen you around,new here?Mr. Rogers asked.

"I've been here for a year now sir".Richelle answered.

"How come I've never met you here?,it says here that you have a scholarship and ......."

"Is she the only one here?",interrupted Chloe.

"Excuse me Miss Adams?"Mr. Rogers says in a high pitch.

"You've been talking as if I'm a ghost,then lemme excuse myself for you guys to have a reunion or whatever this is." Chloe said disrespectfully.

********************************************************************

Chloe has some real guts but that's not how I remember her, Chloe and Richelle had been best friends since they were little, she never disrespect anyone,but somewhere in middle school she become a complete different person.When I confronted her, what she told me was hurtful, so since then I tried to keep my distance.

I can recall perfectly when she broke things up with me.

*FLASHBACK*

RICHELLE:Hey

CHLOE:Hi

RICHELLE:My mom said that if there's any problem between us we should try to resolve it.

CHLOE:Listen, I can't hang out with you anymore

RICHELLE:What!!! But why.

CHLOE:You are too poor for me, and I got a status to attain in school ,if you get what I mean.

RICHELLE:I don't get you I thought we were besties.

CHLOE:We were, but you are too old fashioned and nerdy, you always embarrass me, and we like the same guy.

RICHELLE:I didn't know we had that difference, and what do you mean we like the same guy?

CHLOE:I'm talking about the hottie Jamie Cohen

RICHELLE:I don't understand why that has anything to do with our friendship.

CHLOE:Well I don't care, bye for now.

"Earth to Richelle" ,Chloe said snapping her finger in Richelle's face

"Sorry, I was lost in my thoughts."Richelle said confusingly.

"Classic Richelle" Chloe said hurriedly.

"You girls have detention, Mrs. Flynn we'll talk after your detention is over.Mr. Rogers said in an angry tone, sending them out of his office.

The detention room was so quiet, Richelle entered and went over to Mrs. Bella the detention lady and handed a pink slip to her, which was read aloud.

"Fighting?"she questioned Richelle.

"Yea" answered Richelle.

"Well, both of you get comfy in your seats,I am not in the mood for any of your drama." Mrs. Bella said relaxing in her chair.

They took their books to read.

Richelle felt a painful tag on her hair.

"Ouch, that's painful" Richelle said turning her head.

"Well you deserve it, it's your fault we here, Chloe complained.

"Well Miss Sassy, you shouldn't have slapped me."Richelle shot back.

SILENCE!! Shouted Mrs. Bella.

Both girls got back to their business, finally the bell rung. Detention was over.
