CHAPTER 4

"What are you talking about? You just ran into a dressing room stall and literaly cried your eyes out." Tianna asked. Vanessa looked at Tianna and gave her a look that told her to shut up.

"Serena, what happened? No lies." Vanessa asked joining Jimena at comforting Serena.

Serena swallowed hard and tried to speak, but when she opened her mouth only sobs came out.

"Breath, Serena. Breath." Tianna said.

Serena took a deep breath. "I went into Stanton's mind, and the only thing I read before he took me out was that he doesn't want to date me anymore." Serena said. She broke into sudden cries that could be heard through the whole store.

Jimena stood up and yelled, "Yo le dije. Si se rompre le corazon, he'll regret the day, he ever met Jimena Castillo!"

Vanessa hugged Serena and whispered, "We'll kick his butt."

Serena smiled and nodded her.

"Come on. You don't wanna look desperate for some vato." Jimena said wiping Serena's face with a paper towel that was on the floor.

"You're right. Why am I crying over Stanton?" Serena asked herself. She broke down crying again. "Now what's wrong?" Vanessa asked.

"I need him. I'll die without him" Serena sobbed.

Vanessa shook her head. "Why don't you beat him to the punch and break with him the next time you see him." Tianna asked.

"Because I don't want to."

"It's okay if you do. I broke with Michael and I'm not crying." Vanessa thought. But she was thinking about Michael. She couldn't stop thinking about him.

"Thanks Vanessa. Great advice." Serena said sarcastically. Vanessa could hear Serena say 'liar' under her breath.

"Ok, so I can't stop thinking about him. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't take out advice." Vanessa whispered to Serena.

Serna looked at Vanessa's eyes and sighed. "I guess you right."

Serena got and held the bench next to her and balanced herself.

"Come on chica. Let's get out of here. I need to find some preps."
