Chapter 3: Two Decisions...
"Well, Nerdtron, I'm waiting. Now spill!"
"Don't you think you should sit down first, Dorktex?"
I looked around and saw everyone staring at me again...great.
"Um-yeah. Why do you always do that?"
"You cause the attention, Cindy. I just talk."
"Did you just call me 'Cindy'?"
"Yes."
"Please don't."
He gave me his crooked look.
"Oookay...anyway, about earlier-you only THINK you have Libby, when, in truth, you're losing her to Sheen."
"Wh-h-but? Why would you say that?"
"Because-I'm losing Sheen, MY best friend, to YOUR best friend."
I could NOT believe what I was hearing.
"Really?"
"You think I'm lying?"
"No, but...losing my best friend? Seems-impossible.
I'm sorry, but-actually, no I'm not sorry-I um...I need to go."
I felt all eyes on me again as I walked out. Finally, I couldn't stand it anymore.
"WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM, PEOPLE!"
They all stared the more.
"Um-sorry."
I took off like a speeding bullet, and didn't even stop when Libby called my name.
I ran out of school and didn't look back...I couldn't.
There was only two things logical here-one, I had absoloutely NO love and support from ANYONE anymore, and two, there was only one thing to do: run away, and NEVER look back again...
