Arikk was still crying the next day. She unlocked her door, so I came in, holding the letter. "Hi," I said quietly.
It was the weekend, so we weren't late for any classes--for once.
"Hi," she sniffled.
"Um--" I said, looking at the letter. "I read over this a couple times..."
"Yeah?" she asked.
"And... I don't know much about love relationships, but..." I said. "Wouldn't you be happy at all... you still have `a chunk of his heart'?"
"Tori--" Arikk said, sniffling, taking the letter away from me. "I'll try my best... to explain this to you. See--I know--I have a... `chunk', but..."
"But?" I asked.
"In a relationship... it's like..." Arikk said, looking up, trying to think. "It's even worse than being broke up if... someone has more of a piece of their heart..."
"I think I see," I said.
Arikk nodded, and put her face back into her knees and cried a little harder.
"I've gotta go," I whispered. "Come out for the Christmas party."
"I wasn't invited," Arikk said, narrowing her eyes.
"You were," I said. "You just didn't read the invitation."
I handed her an envelope that was under her blanket. "Here," I said. "Read it so you know what times--"
"Later," she said grumpily.
"Now," I said, narrowing my eyes.
Arikk stared at me with fire in her eyes, and finally gave in. She opened it and read; CHRISTMAS PARTY!!!!!!!! HOORAYHOORAYHOORAY!! December 21^st! 7:30 sharp. Invite all your friends!! In the Ravenclaw common room!
"That's in an hour," I said, looking at my watch. "I'll see you there--hopefully. Just be there, okay? It's gonna be terrific."
"FINE," Arikk screamed. "BUT I WON'T ENJOY IT! I'LL SEE YOU IN AN HOUR!"
I looked angrily at Arikk. "WE SPENT AWHILE ON THIS, YOU KNOW. SO JUST BE HAPPY FOR ONCE."
Arikk growled and put her face back into her knees and started crying. I left her alone.
