The next day arrived at Belmont, with the golden sun casting its warm glow over the campus. Olive, as usual had taken her bath earlier than everyone else and was already dressed in her school uniform.
Ping!
She quickly rushed to her phone which seems like the hundredth time, thinking it was from Lara, only to be disappointed. It was just a text from her bank, wishing her a happy birthday. Her parents had called very early that morning to wish her well, but Lara, her best friend, hadn't called at all.
'Did she forget?' Olive wondered, a grumpy expression on her face. She glanced over at Lucas's bed, which was still empty.
"And him? Why didn't he come to the dorm last night?" she muttered to herself, frustration boiling over. She let out a small yell before storming out of her dorm room, mixing with the crowd of students in the school hallway.
