Victoria's POV
I was overwhelmed with happiness as the party started; I could see almost all my classmates, including my haters. Keisha and her friends attended the ball, and of course, they didn't want to be behind the latest social event of Zenith, and they wanted to be part of this glamorous occasion. And I felt glad they greeted me warmly, and I didn't care if it was fake. Yeah, I knew they were faking their smiles, and right now, I think I am going crazy for hearing their thoughts about me. And then I could feel the pang on my chest when my eyes searched the entire ballroom, and I couldn't find my best friend.
Lana promised me that she would be here, but I could feel it deep in my heart that she would never come, and I understood she is still suffering from her trauma, and of course, losing Tim affected her, but I hope she will come, and I don't care if she will be late as long as I could see her tonight.
