Flora POV
Thank Goodness! Bloom didn't tell anyone my secret. She never does, she never will. Just like a true friend will do. It's early in the morning. I am still NOT over Helia's breakup with me. It's just a simple misunderstanding. Well, that's where the word "harsh" comes into play.
"Flora!" Bloom asked. "There is breakfast downstairs. Let's eat."
"Oh, it's okay Bloom." I said, rejecting her offer. I wasn't in the "eating" mood today. Especially NOT after Helia's incident.
"But Flo…." Bloom tried to convince me.
" 'But Flo'….no. I don't want to. You hear me?" I snapped. Well, I didn't mean to.
"Flora?" Bloom said, scared. "Are you….mad?"
"What do you think? Huh?! LEAVE ME ALONE" I shouted. I wanted to be alone. Bloom was scared out of her guts and rushed for the door.
"Wait Bloom!" I said, with some anger in my voice.
"Ye..yes Flora?" Bloom replied, still trembling.
"Tell the others of my secret will you?" I asked, I wanted this to get off my chest.
"Ok..okay. Se..see you soo...soon." Bloom stuttered as she tried to calmly walk to the door only to slam it in fear.
"I hope she tells them." I thought.
30 Minutes Later
I hear footsteps. Maybe it's them. Then my head snapped. They are going to question me! Oh no.
"Flora!" Musa started. "Bloom told us what happened…..soooo. What's up?" She asked.
"I….hate him." I replied as tears started to trickle down my cheeks. I start sobbing uncontrollably.
"It was a simple misunderstanding….." Tecna tried to say.
"Try saying that to him! Not me!" I snapped. Causing them to look at me, with the exception of Bloom who went up to me.
"Flora. Please we all know you're sad. But life isn't over. You're still alive." Bloom reminded, patting my back. I didn't buy it.
"IT IS OVER! DO YOU KNOW HOW HE DUMPED ME? YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW IT HAPPENED. YOU JUST KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. STOP WITH YOUR FOOLISH "ENCOURAGING QUOTES" 'CAUSE IT'S NOT WORKING!" I growled. I was really heartbroken. And what was worse? My friends can't even understand me.
"Flora, please…." They chorused.
"NO! LEAVE ME ALONE!" I demanded, pointing at them then at the door. They quickly followed. I then hear doors close, meaning they are in their rooms. I start packing some of my things into my backpack, I was going to temporarily leave for a while. I'll still stay within the state and city just not the house.
I grab my backpack and head downstairs. I see Musa and Aisha there watching television. Hehehe, they are watching Blue's Clues. I try to be as silent as possible going downstairs but suddenly, I made a soft sound. Musa turned around because she has sensitive ears. They saw me and my bag. They looked at me with puzzled looks. I didn't want to be questioned. I continued walking as if they were never there. They blocked the door.
"Flora? Are you leaving?" Musa asked, really puzzled.
"Just get out of my way will you?" I said, pushing her out of the way.
"Flora! Where are you going?!" Aisha shouted, she was as puzzled as Musa.
"Not your business!" I shouted back, glaring at the two. Clenching my fists as I ran. Sweat trickling down my back and my cheeks due to exhaustion of my running. I rest first at the sidewalk of the street, reaching for my backpack to drink some of the water I packed. I then feel two hands resting on my shoulders, they were dragging me somewhere. I turn around and realize it to be someone I know. But I was not able to recognize them because I was tired so I either slept or blacked out.
I woke up with two people now dragging me somewhere still. I recognize those two people to be Bloom and Aisha. I was pissed. Like REALLY pissed. I started struggling until they finally released me. I was put into Bloom's house again with 5 girls looking at me strangely. I just wanted to run.
"Flora?" Aisha started. I was too tired to answer.
"What?!" I snapped, I really wanted to sleep.
"Why did you leave?" Stella asked, holding my arm as if I would run off again.
"I….don't want to talk about. Now let me go!" I said, freeing myself from Stella's grip as I head to my room and lock it. I can hear the girls begging me to open it.
"Flora unlock the door!" shouted the red-head.
"Hey! Why'd you lock it?" Tecna said, banging on the door.
"Flora! You can tell us!" Musa assured.
"LEAVE ME ALONE! DO YOU HEAR ME?!" I barked, they immediately shut up. I can hear footsteps as they slowly fade away. Meaning that they left. I then get my guitar which was packed in one of my suitcases and started singing.
Empty spaces fill me up with holes
Distant faces with no place left to go
Without you within me I can't find no rest
Where I'm going is anybody's guess
I tried to go on like I never knew you
I'm awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I'm going to be is incomplete
Voices tell me I should carry on
But I am swimming in an ocean all alone
Baby, my baby
It's written on your face
You still wonder if we made a big mistake
I'd try to go on like I never knew you
I'm awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I'm going to be is incomplete
I don't mean to drag it on, but I can't seem to let you go
I don't wanna make you face this world alone
I wanna let you go (alone)
I'd try to go on like I never knew you
I'm awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I'm going to be is incomplete
Incomplete
Tears that I tried to hold during singing finally slip down my cheeks. I wiped them away and looked at a picture of Helia and I. More tears go down my cheeks as I remember what just happened between us a few days ago.
-Flashback-
We were nearing the restaurant. I didn't really expect any type of restaurant like, I can go to any restaurant as long as Helia is with me. I can see he is excited. I then see the restaurant.
"Oh my! This is a really luxurious restaurant. I wonder how Helia was able to reserve here." I thought to myself. We exit the car and start walking to the restaurant. To my surprise, there was already a table with food on top of it. I was actually shocked.
"Oh Helia! You shouldn't have!" I said, kissing him on the cheek. He looks at me as if he was mad. "I think he got my idea wrong." I thought. I was screwed. He dragged me away from the restaurant which scared me then we ended up in an alleyway.
"What do you mean I shouldn't have? I paid so much and you are saying that I shouldn't have done this?!" He argued, he was very agitated.
"Helia, I didn't..." I tried to say but Helia was really mad.
"You didn't what?! You didn't want us to have a date here? Flora, listen. This might be too harsh but we are over!" He shouted, pure anger in his voice. He clenches his fists and walks over to his car. Driving off. I was heartbroken.
I started walking home, it suddenly started raining. Luckily I had my umbrella so I walked home, it started to get dark. It's around 6-7PM now. So I was walking home in a rainy and gloomy night. The girls are asleep. At least I hope so. I don't want to go in and let them see me sad. Well, I was really the most happy, most optimistic, most everything that is related to happy. It's not really me to be sad. Ohh….how I wish Helia understood me. I never really wanted to say that. I wanted the date there but, I just said thank you in other words.
-FlashbackEnd-
"He just didn't understand me! How foolish of me to act like that!" I shouted, kicking my bed. I was furious. If it wasn't for me then we wouldn't break up.
"I hate it! It's all because of me! Me! Me! Me!" I said, kicking my bed even harder. I was crying again. I then hear banging on my door.
"Flora? What's going on?" Aisha asked, knocking on the door. I forgot! I unlocked the door again. Meaning that they could open it, to which they did.
"Flora….why are you crying? We heard your kicking." Stella asked, never was she this worried in her entire life. Well, in my opinion and as of now.
"Nothing happened. Seri...serious." I stuttered. Bad move Flora, bad move.
"We heard your singing. Please Flora, what is happening?" Bloom pleaded.
"We know that tone." Aisha added.
"I don't want to talk about it." I said, slightly backing away.
"Flora," said Aisha. Putting her hand on my shoulder. "we know that you still love Helia. Admit it."
"We just had a simple misunderstanding!" I began. "I didn't mean to put him down! I was okay on having a date there it's just that I said it wrong! It is all my fault!" I started sobbing uncontrollably unto Aisha's shoulder.
"Shhh…..it's okay Flora. It's okay." Aisha said, calming me down.
"I hate my life. Sometimes I wish I can just di—" I got interrupted
"Don't talk like that! Listen, we all love you Flo. You know we do." Bloom cried, holding back tears simultaneously.
"Just tell him that you didn't mean it like that. I bet you can." Tecna suggested.
"Ooohhh! Tecna not being technical! I like it! Keep it up Tec." Stella joked. Tecna gave her a nasty glare.
"I...I'm sorry! I..didn't mean it!" Stella apologized.
"Yeah right, as if I believe you!" Tecna bickered.
"Tecna! You don't need to be too harsh on Stella!" Bloom said gently.
"She deserved it Bloom!" Musa argued.
"No she didn't Musa!" Aisha shouted, getting into a defense stance. Normal for her, athletic girl, feminist…..
"Guys stop fighting!" I groaned. Nothing happened, they continued fighting.
"Do you know how offensive it is to be joked like that?!" Tecna exclaimed, clenching her fists in anger as sweat trickles down her cheek.
"Do you know how simple that joke was?!" Bloom inquired.
"SIMPLE JOKE?!" Musa barked. "IT WAS NOT A SIMPLE JOKE BLOOM!"
"YES IT WAS!" Aisha barked back.
"My jokes are never offensive." Stella admitted.
"YES IT IS!" Musa snapped.
"IT IS NOT OFFENSIVE! YOU BUTTHURT?!" Stella growled. This went on for about an hour or so.
"SHUT UP ALL OF YOU!" I yelled.
"Flora?! How dare yo—" Tecna said.
"HOW DARE YOU WHAT?! YOU ARE ARGUING FOR ABOUT AN HOUR?! SO YOU WANT TO ARGUE FOR THE REST OF THE DAY? FINE THEN! BUT DON'T YOU DARE TO IT HERE YOU RASCALS! GET OUTTT!" I growled. They all went out of my room.
"….so you want to argue for the rest of the day?' Tecna mimicked. I immediately went out and held Tecna by the collar. I was really infuriated.
"What did you say?!" I was super infuriated, sweat trickling down my face. My cheeks were really red. I look like I can burst any moment.
"No...nothing Flora." Tecna lied.
"YOU DID SOMETHING!" I shouted at her face.
"I...I'm so...sorry." She apologized. I dropped her – in a harsh way. I rushed back to my room and locked it. But after I locked it, I heard someone talking.
"Hey guys….Sky just texted me." Bloom whispered. "He says that Helia wants to get back to Flora again.
"Oh, let's surprise her!" Stella gleamed with joy.
"SHHHHH" The girls said in unison.
"Let's tell her the news but in a different way and not today or tomorrow, just soon. So, who is in?." Musa suggested.
"All of us of course." Bloom, Stella, Tecna, and Aisha said in unison. They were completely oblivious to me, who was listening to them the whole time.
"Time to surprise them before they surprise me." I thought, giggling.
A/N Sorry for taking SOOO long to update. I am having difficulty in doing this because the plot is not completely thought of. I just straight on just did this. But I won't cancel this, anyways, sorry for the delay!
