Serena stared out the window of her bedroom. The silence comforted her. Her mind drifted to questions that she wanted answers to.'Why did he break up with me? What did I do wrong?'
The day Darien Shields broke up with her was the day she died. The day the new Serena was born. She no longer was an immature child. She was a quiet woman that studied hard and pushed everyone away from her. Beautiful and intelligent. The girl every guy wanted, but none could have her heart. Her friends were there for her. She pushed them away along with everyone else. She was still a scout. She destroyed her enemies. Soon her heart was hidden so no one could find it. She mastered the art of hiding her emotions. The Serena everyone knew was gone...Never to come back.
"Come on Serena!" Mina yelled from the doors of the arcade.
"No thank you. I have some studying to do. Would you care to join me?" Serena asked looking at her fellow scout.
Mina's smile fell, "Serena are you sure your okay?"
"I'm fine Mina."
"Okay then," Mina sighed. As Serena left she turned to the others. "Serena's taking this pretty hard. She's always studying and never hangs out anymore."
"I'll go with her. It wouldn't be suspicious if I went to go study," Amy said as she got her coat and left.
"Poor Serena. She was so bummed out at first. Now she just pushes everyone away and buries herself in schoolwork," Lita shook her head.
"I feel so bad. I really miss the old Serena," Raye looked up when the doors to the arcade opened. "Look who just came in."
Darien walked into the arcade. He took one look at Mina, Raye, and Lita. They were all glaring at him and he knew why.
Lita was the first to talk, "I can't believe you did that to Serena."
Darien looked away.
"Hey!" Raye took her turn, "Look at us when we talk to you."
"Just drop it Raye. He's not worth it," Mina turned, grabbed her things and left. Lita and Raye soon followed.
"Whoa, what did you do?" Andy came up to Darien. He had seen the whole thing.
"I...I broke up with Serena," he took a seat at a table.
"You broke up with her! No wonder she hasn't been coming here lately. Not to mention why all her friends are mad at you," Andy scratched his head, "Why though?"
"......" Darien didn't say anything. Instead he got up and left. He walked to the library for a quiet place to think. He walked up and down the isles. While he was walking he ran into someone, "I'm sorry I wasn't looking where I was going," he bent down to pick up the fallen books. He handed them over to the women he bumped into.
"D...Darien?" he looked up to find Serena in front of him. " I have to go. I have to study," she started mumbling as she retrieved her fallen books. She hurried away to get her things.
'I just saw Serena in a library.' Darien was thinking to himself as he went on to find a place to be alone. 'I think I'll just go home.'
'Oh no! I just ran into Darien. No. I will not cry. He is no longer a part of my life.' Serena looked up. She was in her room. She looked in the mirror. What she saw wasn't her reflection. She saw an emotionless woman in her place. 'He is no longer a part of my life.'
