"Gone" "Gone" Gone" for the first time in her life, Brittany was really hating that word. That horrifying word was bad news to her. But wait a minute, maybe she didn't hear the teacher right. If she did hear right, her day would get worse and she would start to think "How dare the teacher say something like that. That's some sick joke" but the teacher looked serious.

Alvin who was standing next to Brittany, had a look of disbelief as he watched as the teacher was searching for the diary. Brittany, the girl that could faint any second, asks

"Wha-what?"

The teacher looks at her with a unconcerned look and replies

"It's not here Miss Miller. You must've taken it when-"

"I didn't take it" Brittany was getting worried. Someone stoled her diary and they were probably reading it right now. Brittany was angry and terrified. Her diary had a powerful secret that no one can know about. She hoped that the teacher was joking.

"Are you kidding me?"

The teacher uncaringly stops searching for the diary and sits on her chair.

"Miss Miller I'm being serous. I'm sorry but your diary isn't here-"

"Please tell me you're messing with me. That diary is one of the most important things in my life. I always keep-"

"Miss Miller don't raise your voice when talking to me. Now I'll tell you again. Your diary is gone okay. Disappeared, vanished. It's no longer here. Now please leave my classroom and go to your second class-"

"NO, I WANT MY DIARY NOW. GIVE ME MY DIARY OR I WILL DO SOMETHING THAT WILL RUIN YOUR TEACHING CARRER"

Both the teacher and Alvin were shocked after hearing Brittany say that. She just threatened her teacher and now she could get in trouble for saying that.

Alvin had never seen Brittany this angry. Not even during their arguments.

The teacher takes a deep breath and calmly says "Miss Miller, get out of my classroom. I'm going to call your adoptive mother and I'll inform the principle about your behavior"

Brittany was so upset that tears were stinging her eyes. Her teacher didn't care that her diary was stolen.

"Besides, it's no big deal. It's just a book that can be replaced. You can make another one" said the teacher who checks her mascara with a small mirror that was in her purse.

Alvin stood there angry because he was realizing that their teacher wasn't just uncaring. She was also a bitch.

Brittany who was so upset, sighs and walks out the door. She felt hopeless. Someone with a cold heart stoled something that means a lot to her. Someone wasn't respecting her privacy.

"Brittany wait"

Said Alvin who follows her but then, he stops at the door way and tells the teacher "You know, this is why no one likes you. None of my classmates like you. Not even other teachers like you. No one likes. No wonder you don't have a husband"

The teachers jaw drops and was gonna angrily yell at him but, Alvin was already gone.

Alvin who was walking next to Brittany had an arm around her shoulders. The girl he had feelings for was sobbing. Her face was buried in her hands. Alvin was comforting her.

"Don't worry Britt. We'll find your diary and whoever has it is gonna pay" Alvin told her as he rubbed her shoulder.

As they kept walking, Alvin started to wonder who took Brittany's diary. All of his classmates were suspects. Scratch that. Everyone who was in Spanish class in the morning were suspects including the teacher. One of them must've took the diary.

Later at lunch

The boys and the Chipettes (Even Charlene) were in the cafeteria eating lunch as they chatted about what happened in Spanish class. Brittany was still upset. "Oh no that's terrible. Who could've taken it?" asked Charlene who was sitting between Simon and Alvin. "We don't know. But whoever took it, must've taken it during the fire drill. I'm starting to think that it wasn't any of our classmates because Britt and I were at the end of the line during the fire drill. We were the last to get out. We didn't see anyone going back in to the classroom. Also the teacher took attendance when we were outside and everyone was present" said Alvin worriedly.

Brittany heard what he said and this only made her worry more. Someone probably knows her secrets right now. She wanted to know who took it.

Later after school

The boys and the Chipettes were waiting for Miss Miller and Dave to pick them up. As they waited, they were approached by someone they knew and loved. "Hello boys and girls, I think this belongs to one of you" they turn around to see the school janitor who was an old man. They were gonna smile but then, when they saw what he had in his hand it shocked them.

"My diary?"

whispered Brittany who approaches him. The old man hands her the diary and says "Before you ask, no I didn't read it. I would never do that. I respect others private belongings" the Janitor who's name is Enrique, was telling the truth. He really didn't read it. He loved the boys and the Chipettes like they were his grandsons and granddaughters. "Anywho, when you were in Spanish class, I was moping the floor in the hallway. While I was doing that, I heard your teacher shouting. I got curious so I approached the door and I saw from the door window your teacher taking your diary. I saw how devastated you looked so during the fire drill I went in to the classroom and grabbed the diary and I forgot to give it to you earlier. An old man like me forgets things fast. Anyway I took the diary because your teacher wasn't going to give it back to you. I've been a janitor for fifty years and I've known that teacher for a long time. Whenever she confiscates something that belongs to a student, she never gives it back. She keeps it. Fortunately I remembered to give your diary back a few minutes ago"

Alvin was glad that Brittany had finally gotten her diary back. The boys and the Chipettes were glad that the problem was solved.

Brittany who had a look of gratitude says "Thank you Enrique. I don't know how I can show you how grateful I am" Enrique chuckles and says "You're welcome Brittany. I know you appreciate what I did. I do ask for a favor though, ignore your Spanish teachers attitude. She's like that with everyone even with other adults. She reminds me of my old grumpy wife" everyone chuckles. Brittany thanks him again before the old man gets back to work.

Suddenly Miss Millers car arrived. The adoptive mother almost crashed on to a garbage truck. Anywho, Brittany was happy to have her diary back, but then she says something that stuns Alvin. She looks at him and says "Alvin, before I go... take this. When you get home, read it when you're alone. This diary will tell you things that will shock you. If you really want to know why I've been acting different, then start by reading chapter 26. From there you'll read and know about a secret that I've been hiding. After you've read it and you still want to talk to me and won't think bad about me, then call me and I'll wait for you at my house"

Brittany quickly hands him her diary before getting in Miss Millers car. She didn't give him time to ask her questions.

Alvin watches the car leave and when it was gone, he looks at the diary in his hands and gently squeezes it. "Tonight, I'm going to find out what happened to Brittany. I... I can't believe she trusts me so much that she let me borrow something so dear to her. I just hope this diary won't reveal anything bad"

Please review. Thanks ungrateful readers:)
