The phone rang, once, twice, and then thrice, then Olivia got the phone. "Hello? This is Olivia Brown." "Olivia. It's me." "Amy? Why did you call me?" "I want to know why you lied to Ellan." "I didn't lied to Ellan, and what are you talking about?" "You said to Ellan that you've apologized." "Huh? I don't understand Amy." "Well then, meet me after class at 4 after school near the oak tree." And then, I hung up. Olivia called me, but I just ignored it, and finally, I switched the sound to 'None'.
The next day was cheery as ever. I went to school as usual. Ellan was waiting for me outside. "Amy! Over here!" she called. I was about to ran toward Ellan when I spotted Olivia. Ellan nudged Olivia. "Um... Can I talk to you?" I looked around. There was no one but me. "Are you talking to me?" I asked. Olivia nodded. "Um... I think I need to go inside. Bye!" Ellan cried and ran inside the school, leaving Olivia and me.
There was an awkward silence before Olivia spoke. "I...want to say sorry about the things I did." she said. "I forgive you. But I want to know the real reason why you did this to me." I said. Olivia blushed. "As I said, I wanted to get attention, but from Dain. I like him, but I think he likes you better than he likes me." I was stunned. Dain likes me? Olivia continued. "I was quite envious when Dain set next to you, and do some other stuff." "What did Dain do?" I asked. "He asked me to help him get along with you. At least I think he said that. His friend, Andrew said that Dain wanted to get along with you. He aksed to fill my group's kids to make you go to Dain's group. Strange that Dain didn't ask you in his group. And he asked me to through that fast ball at you to make Dain seem like he had saved you. And... oh. There's so much things. Anyway, I thought you knew." "That Andrew. I knew that he was a trouble." I muttered. Then, I said out loud, "Andrew isn't Dain's friend Olivia! You were tricked!" "What?!" Olivia cried. "Andrew just made up this stories about Dain. Plus I think Dain knows nothing about this!" Tears suddenly filled her eyes. "Then...then Dain doesn't know the real reason I did this? Then I'm the only bad kid and Dain thinks that?" I tapped Olivia's back. I was thinking for ways to punish Andrew. Who made Emma's, Olivia's and my life terrible.
As I walked into class. I spotted Andrew. He was joking with Danial and Jamison. I slapped his back. "Come. out. right. now." I said menacingly. Andrew turned back and saw Olivia and me both crossing our arms. Andrew scowled. "Why?" he asked. "Just come out!" Olivia cried. Andrew sighed and turned to Danial. "Can I talked to them for a minute?" Danial laughed. "Okay pal! If you don't come back after 20 minutes, I'll call the police! Ha!" Danial laughed by himself and turned back to talk with Jamison again.
Andrew followed me and Olivia out the classroom. "What do you want." he said. "Are you blind? I am busy now." Olivia's eye's flared. "What do I want?! You...you lyer!" Andrew smarked. "It's your fault that you got tricked." I noticed that Andrew was absolutly not feeling sorry for me and Olivia. I tried to kick him hard when a voice called, "What are you doing, Andrew, Olivia, and Amy?" I looked around and saw our teacher coming toward us. "Uh, oh. Just act like we were passing by." I whispered to Olivia. Olivia made a fake smile and cheerfully said, "We're just walking by." to the teacher. Me and Olivia walked on like nothings wrong. Andrew did the same;I think at that moment, he didn't want to get into trouble twice. The teacher shrugged and walked into the classroom.
The next class was art, so I prepared my paintbrush and my paint. Teacher said that we'll draw our inner mind. I thought about it. What was my inner mind? Wanting Emma back? Wanting Andrew's apology? Wanting things would change? Wanting Dain to like me? I didn't knew. None of these things really touched me. Mrs. V spotted me thinking. "Amy? Are you thinking?" "Yes. But I can't think of anything!!!" "Breathe deeply, Let your mind go blank, and let it feel again while letting out your breathe. This was what my great grandmother usually said when she asked to draw my inner mind. Did you read Anne?" I shook my head. I haven't even heard of that book. Mrs. V sighed as she closed her eyes. "Anne was the most gorgeous book I had ever read in my life. And it's the one who gave me the idea of being a teacher. I remember Anne's words. 'My inner most soul' this word always impressed me or cheered me up." Mrs. V opened her eyes again. "Anyway, work hard!" Mrs. V walked away. Mrs. V was kind of strange, but I decided to follow her instructions. I breathe deeply, and let out my breathe. Many thought suddenly filled my head, and that felt a little bit strange. But I was definately sure what first came into my head, 'FRIENDSHIP'. I still didn't got a chance to talk to Emma, but I was begining to feel far from Emma. Before I could think more, the recess ball rang, and I stood up to play, with my current friends.
The next class flew past, and finally, it was science class-which I still haven't got a team to work with. I could ask Olivia, but she and I were not really friends, or not enemies. We were just, strange to each other. I felt awkward to be friendly to a girl who just have been bullying me, and Olivia felt awkward to be friendly to a girl whom just have been bullied by her. So, we were just... um... no people to each other. Like girls I pass by during many classes, but we don't know each other even though we walk pass each other. This kind of relationship was kind of odd, but I didn't care. So I asked the science teacher, Mr. Barson, to help me out. He said that I could only go to Emma's group! OMG. Maybe Olivia filling up her team wasn't as bad as I thought. This was the chance that god gave to me. I walked over to Emma. I said, "Mr. Barson said that I could only join your group. And it's the teacher's choice, so even if you don't like me, you have no choice to say about this." But I only said that to myself and only said, "Mr. Banson said that I could only join your group..." Emma looked strangly at me. "Huh?" She said. I told her one more time but she still looked confused. Then Grace spoke up. "Are you a fool, or are you bothering Emma on purpose? She doesn't want you in our group, dork!" I looked at Emma. Was this really what she meant? Emma nodded without looking my eyes. I stepped back. Was Emma refusing me? But... I thought Emma was my friend! Or was she? She had sent me the friendship bracelet.......then that meant a conplete end to our friendship?! I swallowed back my tears and just walked away, avoiding everyone's eyes.
