Ch3
Manny gave Mr. Simpson a note saying that today was her last day and that she'll be returning all her books. Mr. Simpson looked up at her after reading the note, "I'm sorry that you'll be leaving. All your friends will miss."
Manny held tears in and she sighed, "I don't think so Mr. Simpson."
Mr. Simpson watched as she slowly took her seat without talking to anyone. He then stood up as the bell rang and the class started settling down, "Well I have some sad news. Manny Santos is moving, and today is her last day. So please comfort her and be the caring Degrassi students that I know you are."
The whole class turned and looked at Manny. Jt raised his hand, "Mr. Simpson, can I talk to Manny out in the hall for a second?"
"Sure Jt."
Jt walked out the door with Manny following slowly.
"Manny, why are you leaving?"
"I just think It's time for a change. Make a new start where everyone doesn't know that I'm a big screw up."
"But I'm going to miss you Manny."
"Sorry Jt, but that's not a good enough reason for me to stay in this stupid town being know as a slut. Okay? Jt, I want to be happy, I want to smile, I always feel depressed and I just want friends who won't judge me and label me."
"I can make you smile."
Manny put her hand on his shoulder, "I'm sorry Jt. I've made my decision, so please, just say goodbye."
Jt blankly stood there not saying a word.
Manny kissed his cheek, "goodbye Jt." She went back to class and Jt slid down the wall and started crying.
The bell rang and Manny walked out and saw Jt curled up crying, but she just brushed him like dirt on her shoulder and went to her next class.
¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?
Jt entered his house and noticed his mom taking a nap on the couch. He looked at the TV and saw a familiar movie on, Selena. Jt put on a half smile as he sat down to watch the end. He then heard a sad song playing, and he fell asleep with the lyrics being burned in his head. From listening to the song all he could think about was Manny.
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I wish on a star that somewhere you are
thinking of me too
Cause I'm dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
than here in my room dreaming about you and me
Wonder if you ever see me and I
wonder if you know I'm there (am I there, am I?)
If you looked in my eyes would you see what's inside
would you even care?
I just wanna hold you close but so far
all I have are dreams of you
So I wait for the day (wait for the day)
to take the courage to say how much I love you
Yes I do
I'll be dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
than here in my room dreaming about you and me
Corazon
No puedo dejar de pensar en ti
Como te necesito
Mi amor, como te extrano
(translation:
Sweetheart
I can't stop thinking of you
How I need you
My love, how I miss you)
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I still can't believe
that you came up to me and said I love you
I love you too
Now I'm dreaming with you tonight
Till tomorrow (till tomorrow) and for all of my life
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
than here in my room
Dreaming with you endlessly
Jt abruptly woke up by his mom chopping some meant for dinner, "Well hi there James, a young pretty girl came over here, she came and brought you that." Jt's mother pointed with the knife at a note on the coffee table.
Jt picked it up and opened and read it:
Hey Jt,
I just wanted to tell you that whenever I'm around you, I do feel good. I'm going to miss you. And you are my hero. I wanted to let you know before I leave, so I better go before I make my family miss the flight. Bye.
Love Always,
Manny Santos
Jt brought the note to is face and it smelt just like Manny's hair. He tucked the note in his pocket and ran to his mom, "Mom, I'll be a little late for dinner."
With that said, he rushed out the door and ran as fast as he can to Manny's house.
Manny buckled Alex into his car seat and gave him a pacifier to suck on until they get to the airport.
From a distance she heard someone shouting her name. And out of nowhere Jt popped out.
"Jt, what are you doing here? I'm about to go."
"Manny, you can't leave. Please."
Manny brushed her hair behind her ear with her fingers, "Jt, you should go. Don't make this hard for me."
"I love you."
"What?"
"I love you. You'll break my heart if you go."
Manny folded her arms and started crying, "Jt why are you doing this to me? You're great I know you are. But if I stay here longer, I'll do something I'll regret. I mean I already want to die as it is, so please go home. My parents are waiting for me."
Jt gave Manny a hug. They stood there in each other's arms for about five minutes. Manny slowly turned from Jt and waved solemnly to him.
Jt watched as she walked to the car and as the car drove away in setting sun.
When the car disappeared, he walked to the porch of Manny's used-to-be home and sat there by the door holding the note from Manny by his heart.
By the time it was pitch dark, the note that Manny has given him was soaking wet with tears.
¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?
Ashley was taking a walk around the neighbor hood to clear her thoughts. She came upon Manny's house and decided to say goodbye to Manny.She walks up to the door and sees Jt crying, "Jt, are you okay?"
"Manny's gone. Does it look like I'm okay?"
"Oh Jt, I'm so sorry." Ashley knelt down in front of him and gave him a hug, "She's going to come back, it's gonna be alright. So wipe those tears away and come, you can spend the night at my place."
Jt slowly stood up, "Hey Ashley, do you know how it feels to lose someone you love?"
Ashley's eyes widened at the word love. She looked out on the sidewalk and saw Craig and Jordan walking hand in hand. "Yea Jt, I know exactly how it feels."
"Does the feeling ever go away?"
Ashley's eyes to well up in tears, "No." Ashley extended out her hand to Jt, "I'm here for you Jt."
Jt looked at Manny's house one last time and silently walked with Ashley to her house.
They finally arrived at her house, "Hey ash."
Ashley turned around.
"You're a really great friend. Thank you."
Ashley smiled and went to go call Jt's mom.
Toby came walking down the stairs in his pajamas, "Jt, I didn't know you were gonna be spending the night over. Well come on, let's go play some video games on my computer."
"I'd rather not. I think I'm gonna hang out with Ashley."
"Whatever." Told went back upstairs and back into his room.
Ashley came back, "You're mom said it's alright to sleep over, she'll be here to bring your stuff. Come here, follow me." Ashley led Jt to her room.
"Wow, I never been in here. It has style"
"Aahaha thanks. So Jt how are you feeling?"
Jt sat down on her bed, "Not so good. I really miss her. She always confided in me."
Ashley stoked his face, "I'm sorry Jt."
Mrs. Kerwin came in, "Well Jt, your mom is here and she brought your stuff. She says to behave yourself and that she loves you."
"Uhhh thanks Mrs.Kerwin."
Ashley closed the door, "So now what?"
Jt sniffled, "I think I just want to be alone for a while."
"Sure, you can sleep in my bed tonight, I'll be downstairs if you want to talk. Good night." Ashley kissed Jt's cheek and left her room.
As Ashley left, Jt broke down in tears. Manny why did you have to leave me?
