Nessah went to school alone that day, because Curt wasn't there and he went to a game with his school's varsity team mates. In her almost three months at that school, she made very few friends, "Why doesn't anyone seem to make friends with me?" She asked herself. And it was as if her question was answered when she heard someone talking behind the fuzzy plant on the pathway of the university she attended.
"Do you guys know that Curt has been gone for two weeks starting today?" Said a female voice.
"Well, doesn't that mean that flirtatious Kate will come in alone?" answered a woman. "Don't be like that, you're just jealous because one of you Curt won't notice."
Kate thinks someone is on her side somehow. "Oh! what you say Greg, you're also glad because you can shape up now."
"What? let's form bro?" said another man who was also in the group. Kate continued to walk and she just let what she heard. If the students there thought of her as flirtatious, that's up to them to judge, she didn't force Curt to approach her, and she was the only one paying attention.
Kate's questions were answered even more when she was in the hallway near her room. There were groups of women there who were like blind people who could not see her coming to face her face to face that they did not want her to be in that school.
"Of course Trex, if it's only Kate who is your rival, you can handle it, with so many people you know here, friends, can she still defeat you?"
"Why? will I allow that? of course not!.. no one can take my place, especially Curt's heart." The one named Trexie answered.
She passed them quietly, but it was as if they were really on purpose because when she passed, Trexie really raised her voice.
"And do you know that I think Curt is going to make out with me when he gets back in the next two weeks?."
The pain that she felt when she heard what Trexie said reached to her bones, because she suddenly trembled and her knees seemed to go soft, that's why she walked quickly to reach their room. When she entered their classroom, her classmate Nichole immediately approached her.
"Are you okay?" She asked her, maybe she noticed that she was turning pale, Nichole is one of her closest friends.
"I'm fine Nich,".
She replied trying to smile at her even though she knew she wouldn't believe her.
"You know Bainessah Kate Filezardo?
you can't hide anything from me, because even though I've only been friends with you for three months, I already know you, from head to toe, and I know why you're not okay!." her long litany.
Kate took a deep breath to somehow ease the tightness in her chest. What her friend said was true, she already knew her, because apart from Curt, she was always her ally and she told her if she felt something not good. Maybe there's nothing to hide her.
"I'm fine Nich, I can take what I hear." She answer.
"Don't believe what you hear from them, because! Bai, you know? I believe in Gilbert, he won't hurt you.!"
She wanted to celebrate what she was saying, but her mind couldn't because she and Curt didn't have anything yet, they were just friends and nothing more than that.
"But!....
"Wait a minute, don't continue what you're going to say Bainessah Kate Filezardo!".. cutting off what she was about to say.
"I know that, you've told me that several times, but no matter what I do, I can't convince my brain that Mr. Prince Charming doesn't love you."
She just laughed at what her friend said, and she laughed even more when she always mentioned her full name.
"I don't want to get my hopes up Nich, I might just get hurt and maybe this time I won't be able to handle it." she seriously confessed to her best friend.
"So! I'm right with you too,. you already love him?" Confirming this to her.
"Of course Nich, because I wouldn't be hurt by what I heard earlier if my love for him is just a friend."
"You're right best friend!.. that's why I'm here, I'm ready to listen and I'll be angry with you if you don't fight for what you feel.
She hugged her best friend and thanked her. Only once will you have a friend like this who can understand and love you. That friend who is sick of your acting in life is still there and ready to listen to your drama.
"Later when I hear their useless talk against you?. I will fight them right away."
She was released from hugging her when she told her to make arguements for her.
"You really are Nichole Andrade, you are so brave." she said while squeezing her face.
"Yes indeed! I will really scratch the face of whoever hurts my dearest friend Bainessah Kate Filezardo." she said the same and retaliated with a squeeze on her face. The two continued to squeeze each other while laughing, then their professor arrived.
"Good morning everyone," greeted their professor.
"Good morning to you too professor!" they answered at the same time.
"I have something to inform you guys that I know this is what everyone is waiting for, in each department we will choose a representative for the princess and prince university of the year, and I want to inform or ask if there is anyone in the nursing department who likes it?
It is not enough to say that the ground would have swallowed her at that time, because even in the eyes of her classmates, even if she was still under the ground, they would dig her up.
"Why are you looking at me guys?" she asked her classmates loudly.
"Why not best friend? Are you mentally weak now?" Nichole next to her asked her back. "No! but I don't like such of that activities." "That will allow!" her classmates shouted. "Yes sir! Bainessah is our representative, their president said in the classroom even though she didn't say that she agreed.
She do nothing stay calm and silent, "Did you see sir? silence means yes! right classmates?
Alexandra, beside her speak happily.
"Okay! Miss Filezardo, you are our princess in the nursing department, there's no denying that.
"Who is the prince who can match with Miss Filezardo sir? One of their classmates asked. "Always nothing, does anyone want the neck to be twisted when our muse has another partner?" answered her friend.
Kate frowned in surprise at what her friend said. Even their professor was laughing along with their other classmates. She elbowed her friend.
"What?.. what I said is true ah!.. no one competes with the prince here even when I was in my first year."
Sh just kept quiet, and was secretly happy with what she found out, because that's how strong her best friend used to be at this school.
