You know the best and the worst thing about high school? One! YES PEOPLE JUST ONE SMALL MOMENT CAN CHANGE YOUR ENTIRE PERSPECTIVE ABOUT HIGH SCHOOL!!
And also your high school life....
Apparently, a guy who is an #sshole is angry with me. I don't even know why??!!!
The thing is...I do, but, I can't help it!!!!
My sister's a b*tch! I think I don't need to tell that to you, do I? She just said some mean stuff to Brandon Johnson. It's been one week already but every time I try to approach him, he picks up a book and says....
"I'm studying, can we talk later?"
"I'm studying, let's do it some other time."
"I'm studying, you're disturbing me!"
"Yeah sure, but currently, I'm studying, we'll continue this later...."
LOOKS LIKE SOMEBODY'S STUDYING WHEN WE HAVE OUR EXAMS SIX MONTHS LATER!!!
IT'S OBVIOUS HE DOESN'T WANNA TALK TO ME ANYMORE!!
DID HE LOSE INTEREST IN ME AFTER MY SISTER'S THREATS?? WHAT A COWARD.....
WHY AM I SO DEPRESSED ABOUT THIS??!!! WHO AM I? A 60 YEAR OLD MAN WORRIED ABOUT HIS SE*UAL LIFE AND DEPRIVING STAMINA??!! OH JEEZ!!!! THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH ME OR WITH THIS UNIVERSE!!
RIIIIIIIIIIIING
"It's the journalism class!!" I said to myself. Then, I slammed my locker door.
"Hey Kate." Jaden said as he stood beside my locker.
I jumped suddenly but it took me 3 seconds to come back to my senses "DUDE!! Don't come in front of me so suddenly, I have a weak heart!!!" I said.
"I hope you don't have weak bones 'cause I'm gonna beat the sh*t outta you!!"Jaden said with a smile.
"Why? What have I done?" I said.
"HOW DARE YOU DITCH ME YESTERDAY????!!!!! WHY DIDN'T YOU COME TO SCHOOL??!!!" Jaden said.
"....I was sick" I said and received a punch on my face.
"YOU LIAR!!" Jaden said as he grabbed my collar.
"No, I never lie, you know that...." I said.
"...True....So how are you now?" Jaden said as he slowly released my collar.
"I'm better, but I have some life concerns." I said.
"Hey! What am I here for?? First, let's rush to the media room, we're already 5 minutes late." Jaden said.
"HOLY SH!!!!" I shouted and we both ran towards the media room.
Near the media room
"KATE ROBERTS!!! STOP RIGHT THERE!!!" Mr. Simpson, our journalism teacher, said while Jaden and I stood in front of the media room, about to open the door.
"Un...sir...Aren't you supposed to be in the media room?" I said.
"Why? Can't a teacher be late?" Mr.Simpson said, holding a huge sack in his hands.
"Sir, what's inside this?" Jaden said.
"A STUDENT'S DEAD BODY" He said and threw the sack on Jaden. Luckily, Jaden caught it before it fell on him. "Carry it to the media room, this has the notebooks which I'm supposed to check tonight." Mr. Simpson said.
Mr. Simpson, our journalism teacher, is one nice man. He is funny and intellectual at the same time. Just the type of teacher I need in my life!! And, I'm his FAVORITE STUDENT. You know, every teacher has one favorite student, no matter how much they deny it, they favor one student above the others.
Such as Mr. Warren likes Brandon Johnson, and excuses him no matter what he does. The truth is....he is every teacher's favorite, so...yeah...ANYWAYS...Jaden took the huge sack which looked as if it weighed a metric tonne!
"Kate." Mr. Simpson said.
"Yes sir?" I said as I turned towards Mr. Simpson.
"I was searching for someone who could be the temporary adviser for our school newspaper's Ms. Talk it out column, as the girl who previously handled it is down with measles, so I was wondering....who could be better at it than Kate Roberts!"
OKAY! This was the last thing I wanted!!! 'Ms. Talk it out column?', who named it first of all?? I wanna murder that person right this instant, and the job seems too tiring....so...
Watch how I handle things from here....
"MR. SIMPSON!!!! THAT'S WONDERFUL!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'D CHOOSE SOMEONE AS INEXPERIENCED AS ME TO DO THE JOB!!" I said with excitement on my face.
"YES!! GO MAKE ME PROUD!!" Mr. Simpson said.
"But sir, I'm afraid I can't...You see, my friend's mother's grandpa's brother's grandson's uncle's fish died, and yes, it was tragic." I said.
"Ohhhh....it does seem so sad that it brought tears to my eyes." Mr. Simpson said rubbing his eyes.
"I'm so sorry, I really wanted to-"
"Mr. Roberts, has anyone ever told you that you suck at lying." Mr. Simpson said.
"Pardon?"
"YOU'LL BE DOING IT EVEN IF THE WORLD ENDS TOMORROW. YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE WHO'LL DO IT!!!"
"BUT-"
"AND I DON'T WANT EXCUSES!!!!"
"BUT SIR-"
"IF YOU DON'T DO IT I'M GONNA DEDUCT A GRADE FROM YOUR FINAL SEMESTER EXAMS!!"
. . .
NO WAY!! I CAN'T AFFORD MY MARKS TO BE IN NEGATIVE, 'CAUSE I KNOW I'M GONNA GET A ZERO ANYWAYS!!! IF HE DEDUCTS A GRADE FROM THAT TOO...I'LL BREAK THE SCHOOL RECORD BY SCORING A NEGATIVE GRADE IN MY SEMESTER EXAMS!!
THIS FEELS LIKE LIVING HELL!!!! OH YEAH!!!
"SO?" Mr. Simpson said.
"Un...Okay.…"
"EXCELLENT!!! NAILED IT! I'M SO PROUD OF ME! LET'S GO TO THE CLASS NOW" Mr. Simpson said as he opened the door of our class and went inside.
Jeez!!!! I CAN'T EVEN TELL WHAT SUCKS ANYMORE, CAUSE EVERYTHING DOES!!!
Mr. Simpson discussed the top news stories which we were supposed to write in our respective columns in the newspaper and then left the room.
"I don't wanna work!" I said as I turned towards Jaden who was busy working on the computer.
"Are you seriously working on your assignment right now?" I said.
"Nope, I'm playing this new zombie video game, wanna try?" He said.
"...Uh...no thanks. I can't believe I got the shittiest assignment ever made in this world. A 'Ms. Talk it out column!' NAILED IT!!" I said to Jaden.
"WOW! Nice name, since when did you become 'Miss'"Jaden asked.
"Please don't start right now...I seriously want a bus to enter this room and drive all over me to that point that I don't look human anymore." I said.
"…Okay, it's not the end of the world."
"EASY FOR YOU TO SAY !! WHAT ARE WE....FIVE YEAR OLD'S?" I said no-I shouted. But, 'cause it's not our classroom, everyone just ignored me and continued working on their assignments.
"I'm so not happy with my life." I said.
"Happiness isn't about getting what you want, it's about loving what you have and being grateful for it." Jaden said with a smile.
I could nearly see a halo above his head.
I was surely losing it!!
"...Are you an angel who's descended on Earth?" I asked.
"*Laughs* No, but I'm surely the friend in need you need right now." Jaden said.
"Okay, so help me. I have this friend who has a friend who's not talking to him because my friend's sister said mean things to my friend's friend, so what should my friend do in order to solve things between him and his friend?" I said.
"...Was that supposed to be a tongue twister? 'Cause I have no idea, what the hell you're talking about." Jaden said.
"I said, I have this friend-"
"OKAY OKAY! *Sigh* All I wanna say is...Whatever happens, happens for the best." Jaden said.
I was literally about to throw my shoe at his face for this crap he just puked out of his mouth but then I realized...The guy's right! I am such a fool! I should get the signal and move away from Brandon Johnson while I can!! Now's my chance!!!
"You know, they both should talk it out and cancel out that awkwardness between them, 'cause that's what friends do" Jaden said while I was lost in my own thoughts.
"Yes! You're right! WE DO NOT NEGOTIATE WITH TERRORISTS!!!" I said.
"...That's the opposite of what I just said." Jaden said.
I looked at Jaden, Jaden looked at me and we continued staring at each other until Jaden finally said "OKAY, I THINK I KNOW WHAT YOU NEED!"
"All I need is some sleep, such a sleep that I never wake up!!" I said.
"NO! All you need is a date! I can fix it for you." Jaden said tapping his phone screen.
"You can?" I said.
"YES...UN...." Jaden scrolled through his phone screen and said "Cortney Hales"
"Nah, she's weird and she exposes too much skin. I hate those types of girls!" I said.
"Emma Fride" Jaden took another name.
"She's hot but she's taller than me. We would look completely weird together." I said.
"Viana Kimsten?" Jaden said.
"The one who's always suffering from a cold and has a runny nose all year round? Nah! I'm fine. I don't wanna be covered in snot perennially." I said.
"OH! I GOT IT! Jeslene Roberts!" Jaden said as he kept his phone down as if this was his final choice. He seemed proud of himself. To this name, I replied...
"Jeslene Roberts....My cousin Jeslene Roberts?"
"You are cousins?" Jaden said.
I shook my head as if I was so done and then Jaden suddenly said-
"Brandon Johnson?"
WAIT!!! WERE MY EARS HEARING RIGHT?? HOW COULD HE MENTION A GUY'S NAME?? DON'T TELL ME... HE KNOWS ABOUT ME AND BRANDON??!!!
UGH!!!!!!!
MAYBE HE SAW US SOMEWHERE??
IN THE SHED? ON THE TERRACE? UNDER THE LABURNUM TREE? AT MY HOUSE??
THERE ARE JUST SO MANY PLACES, I CAN'T TELL WHERE COULD HE HAVE POSSIBLY SEEN US BOTH!!!!
"LOOK, JADEN, I'M NOT GA-"
"He's calling you." Jaden said, pointing behind me.
I turned back and found BRANDON JOHNSON standing at the door of the media room.
"W-What?" I said from my seat. He first looked at me and then at Jaden.
"…Jaden Smith, in the lunch break, come to the terrace, and don't be late." Brandon said and left the room.
We both just sat there for a few seconds, gaping at the door.
"WAIT-YOU??? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE??!" I said as I looked at Jaden.
"...I have no idea...but, the Prince looked scary. Did he just glare at me or was it my imagination?" Jaden said.
WHAT HAPPENS....HAPPENS FOR THE BEST?
HELL NO IT DOESN'T!!!!!
