We met in a very undesirable way and I hated her that very day, Brittany S. Pierce. She is a Prankster that's what she is. She is sometimes insensitive to the feelings of others, she is a great actress. But she never really hurts people. She is just happy when she pranks the others...actually she is a great and nice person.
She said she liked me, that is why she made that prank so that I will never forget her. I guess she's right.
It was my first day at that school and I was so prepared, it was my mind set, my outfit that I prepared a week before class. I was at the peak of my good mood that day, nothing and no one can break my feral day, Except HER!.
We were seatmates at my first two classes and I noticed that she was stealing glances at my ID. I didn't know that she has some plans about it. As we were being oriented with our instructor during my third class I was paged,
"Paging Ms. Santana Lopez, please proceed to the auditorium immediately." A recall was made.
So I asked permission from my instructor and I went. I was in a hurry because I just realize that the distance was a light-year away from my classroom. I was really wondering why I was summoned to that place.
The auditorium was so huge it was like a death march under the scorching heat of a sun. I was really sweating all-over and I started to get really irritated and uncomfortable. I was not prepared for this; I did not expect this... but still I kept on walking in a fast pace. Just a few steps away from the entrance of the place and I slipped my left foot into a hole and it broke the heel of my shoe! I got mad to myself for being too clumsy, I wanted to burst out and shout but I managed to control my anger. I felt so persecuted!..
When I entered the auditorium, it was empty. I was sweating all over my outfit (that I prepared a week before school) and breathing heavily, my hair was all over my face and I am soaked in sweat, and of course, I'm straining my left leg just to balance my stance. Then, out of nowhere, a girl with a pretty golden shining hair with a perfect curved body came to me... it was her "BRITTANY PIERCE".
She was smiling; maybe she was trying to control a storm of laughter when she saw me in that shattered state. She said she wanted to meet me and make friends, she also said that she only made up that 'paging' thingy. I almost lost my civilized being when I realized that. My rational human reason popped like a balloon. I wanted to pluck out her eyes and smash it and put it in her mouth!
It started there... see? We met in a very undesirable way and for sure I won't forget it and I made it sure that she will not forget it also. I gave her a head cracking punch that her face swelled for two days. Our love story started there. Since then she became my stalker. Sometime scary, sometimes sweet, she went into my classroom on Valentine's Day and sang my favorite Beyonce song with a very fashioned dance step, and dedicated it to me. She made me laugh because she looks so weird but amazing and I think that was so cute and sweet. She had her own unique way of getting my attention and when she gets it, she really has it.
Months passed and she's still persistent and of course her pranks were getting better too! I invited her to attend my 19th birthday party at my house. Hours passed but she was still not there. I was quite disappointed because I started to like her even though she always made me fall to her pranks. I really wished she could come. An unexpected package came, it was a huge birthday present and it has a note:
'I have no better gift than this... You can throw this away but it will always come back to you again'
Just before I reach to open it Brittany Pierce popped out from the box wearing a panda costume and shouted:
"Happy Birthday!"
I was so surprised; she caught me with her prank again. That night I said, "YES" to her and that night also she was the happiest panda I've ever seen. I didn't know being a panda-girl was one of the happiest moments too.
Since then she was the most loving and caring gentlewoman, but still her prank continued. If I had a heart problem I must have died a long time ago.
I cannot forget the first time that she made me cry. She did not go to school that day. She called me and told me that she was in the hospital for having a stomach aches. I went to the hospital after school and I saw her, she looked so weak. I gave her a quick peck on the lips and asked what happened.
"Promise me you'll be good."
I looked at her, I was confused... She continue,
"They ran the test and the doctors found something, it's bad...Oh, San, I'll miss you, I love you so much my Sannybear."
We started to get teary eyed. I started to have this bad feeling and I got so afraid.
"What is it?" I asked.
She looked at me and a tear fell from her eye, she bit her lip, and took a deep sigh,
"I have cancer and I only have two months to live."
She clasped our hands and it felt so light and cold. I can't believe what I have heard. I was trembling and tears started to flow from my eyes, but before I totally broke down she pulled me and hugged me tight and she whispered,
"Stop it...I'm just kidding, I only have amoeba." while laugh saying it to me.
"You will cry if I'll die don't you?"
I was so relieved and at the same time mad at her. I took a deep breath and punched her at the side as hard as I could and it made her grasp for air for a few seconds!
"Don't you do that again!" I yelled at her then I hugged her tighter at the same time and we laughed it out together.
The second time she made me cry was three months ago. We were supposed to meet that day to buy the ring that she promised as a gift Christmas. I really liked that ring. Before I got out of the house she texted me:
to: Sanny
'I found a cute puppy and bought it
instead of the ring'
from: Britt-Britt
I was really disappointed because I don't like pets. The last pet I had was a rabbit and it starved to death. I told her I was disappointed and she can keep the puppy and I'm not going anymore. I turned off my phone because of dismay. How could she do that to me? How could she break her promise? I turned on my phone and I tried to call her but she was unable to be reached. I tried it again but still it was out of reach. Later that evening Brittany's dad called and said that Brittany was rushed to the hospital. We hurried to the hospital and when we got there it was too late. I could not believe what just happened. We were all stunned by the terrible incident. I could not sleep that night, I just kept on crying. I felt so guilty.
The next morning Brittany's mother came into our house and she was bringing with her a very adorable puppy.
"I believe this is for you," she said.
After she left, I took the puppy into my room. The name on the tag was 'Smile' and I noticed another thing on the tag, a 'ring'. It was the ring that she promised for me! My tears flowed again, I tried to smile because I know that's what my Britt Britt wants me to do but I couldn't. It was painful, until now I still couldn't get over her. We made a lot of good memories together, especially the pranks that she did. Every night when I'm alone all the memories flashed back, I wish that this is just a prank, the greatest prank of her life. I wish she will burst out somewhere or from a box wearing her panda costume and she will hug me tight and tell me that all of these are just part of her jokes and that she would never leave me again. And I would smack her head or punch her or maybe just hold her tight across my arms and never let her go forever.
