*Madison*
Yes!
Hale and I (also known as my dad) are planning my mother's supprise party. You would think it would be a delight to do so, but it's not. Miles can be quite demanding sometimes.
The party
At my mum's fortieth birthday that my dad and I planned, after the long speech my brother and I gave she shouts out, "Thank you BUTTER AND PUMPKIN!"
Got me thinking why shout "butter and pumpkin". All my friends and classmates were there! Yet again she managed to humiliate me!
I'm at school and I don't even know what to say, I'm just humiliated after last night. Ella walks up to me and says, "Hey girl, you better make sure that this time I'm not part of your mess. This girl right here has to stay popular!"
I know, having a popular girl as your best friend means that you're the follower, I just hope that one of these good days I could be just as popular."
In class and James had to say it, oh yes he had to!!! He stood up and shouted, "Butter and Pumpkin never thought of that mixture!"
I felt like I could sink into my seat and disappear. I couldn't so I ran out. Mr Williams, "James! Sit down and keep quite!"
An awful day is finally over. I don't really have anyone to talk to, so I have a diary.
"7pm, Monday, 17 January
Dear Diary
Today I was humiliated in front of everyone and now I don't have a best friend anymore. Ella said she couldn't punish herself by being my best friend and that I should just join the other losers like Lily.
Good night
Madison(the sad and crying one)"
As I was crying Hale(the only person that gets me and also known as my dad) came to cheer me up and said not to worry cause everything is gonna be alright.
The next day
James came up to me," I don't know, between you and your brother who is the Butter?" he said amused.
He actually said that infront of Wilder. "Hi Wilder, how were your... Er... Holidays?" I asked in order to have a conversation with him. "I have places to be!" he shouted rudely as he pushed me out of the way.
As I sat in the toilet room writing in my diary Ella walked up to me and said, "Come on Madison! Grow up! I don't even remember the last time I owned a diary let alone wrote in one. If you want to be my best friend again you have to make people forget about butter and pumpkin. Make sure their eyes are looking another direction and not yours. And stop writing in those silly things. "
In my favourite class(the Math class)
" Welcome to high school everyone! Yesterday was your first day of high school. Does anyone want to share how it was? " said Mr Williams.
James stood up and said,"The only thing playing in my head is Butter and Pumpkin. Who did you say was the Butter, Madison?"
Ella immidately gave me a killer look.
"8pm, Tuesday, 18 January
Dear Diary
The joke keeps on continuing, I think I have a plan to get the attention off me to someone else. The plan is inspired by yours truly... Ella.
Good night
Madison"
Wednesday
"James, can I ask. Why do you keep doing this to me, can't you stop, please!" I shouted with anger. James' imidiate answer was, "You know Madison I'm happy right now so tell me why should I stop, for your happiness?"
"James let me tell you something, people like you tend to remember others humiliations, but forget theirs, and also tend to annoy me with their silly laughters! But it's all gonna end soon, trust me!" I said as I walked away.
At that moment I was consumed with anger, so I rushed to the stairs and saw Pearl going down and pushed her. " She's hurt! " Lily shouted
As I sat in the hallway crying Mr. Williams came to me and asked why I was crying. "Sir I'm a horrible person." I responded. "What's wrong?" he asked. "James started a silly joke about me and I lost my best friend because of it. So I decided to push Pearl off the stairs in order to remove the attention off me to her. I didn't know she'd get hurt, I promise." I said as I cried even more. "Listen acknowledging the problem is the first step, admitting that you made a mistake is the second. I think you know what the third step is." he responded.
Ella came to me while smiling as I was in the class and said, "Now that the attention is off you and to that stupid nerd, we can be best friends."
I know I'm supposed to be happy that my wish has became a reality, but I'm not. I don't even think I want want a bad influence like Ella in my life anymore, "Oh, okay." I said walking away from her.
I just feel alone, I don't have any friends. I'm so stupid that I even pushed a lovely girl off the stairs. I sat there and cried.
James saw me cry and said, "I didn't know pumpkins could cry." Dane helps James and took him away. Dane then came back alone to me and apologise on James' behalf.
As I was walking alone down the hallway, I couldn't believe my eyes! Wilder and Ella were kissing!!! Oh no, I thought to myself as tears came running down my face.
"Ella! How dare you, you kissed my crush! Knowing full well that he's your best friends crush! Tell you what, I never want to see your bitter face near me ever again! Are we clear? You know what, you're such a bad influence... And you, Wilder you're a fool that doesn't even know how to treat a girl. You don't deserve my love!!! Both of you don't say a thing just keep quite!!!"I said while crying.
At the hospital
So I finally decided to visit Pearl at the hospital."Hi, listen Pearl I'm sorry. I shouldn't have let my emotions get the better of me, you don't deserve what I did to you." I said feeling said.
"Listen it's okay, really. We can even be friends." she responded.
"6pm, Friday, 21 January
Dear Diary
A lot has been happening so I couldn't find the time to write about it all. I have a best friend, this time not a best friend that expects me to carry her bag, Wilder, I'll never say a thing about him.
Good night
Madison (the excited one) "
Sawyer ran into my room and said," Madison, run Miles is on fire. Come!" My mother is on fire, what?And my dad is not even home!
My mother is okay, well she's in the hospital but she's doing well." Hi Miles. " I said."It's mum." she responded. "Okay, mum. You remember what you did on your birthday right, calling Sawyer and I Butter and Pumkin. Well James started a joke about it. He says Butter and Pumpkin never thought of that mixture."
Well obviously my mother laughed about it as I thought. So I asked Hale for advice instead and he said," Don't care what people think about you. "
But it's impossible!
Monday
So dad said not to care what people think about me. I'm definitely trying that.
IMPOSSIBLE!!!
Tried it but James is the worst!!! He keeps saying the same thing, "Butter and Pumpkin never thought of that mixture!" Stupid guy!
