Chapter 17: Run Away
After the incident back at the theater and Lavanya ran out, Sour Cream chased after her to make sure she is okay. He then found her sitting at the beach crying.
"Lavanya!" Sour Cream called as he ran towards her. Kneeling down he looked at Lavanya as she was sobbing. He then hugged her and gently comb her hair.
"What did Kevin do...?" He asked as Lavanya sobbed and wiped her eyes. She then pushed Sour Cream off and began to run.
"Lavanya wait!"
"Leave me alone!" She yelled as she continued to run. Sour Cream didn't stop running after her. Lavanya quickly glanced back seeing the blonde running after her. She then decided to loose him by making a quick sharp turn into an alley then she ran towards a bus stop where the bus is about to leave.
"What?! You lost her?!" Steven asked then Sour Cream looked down.
"She was really upset from what Kevin said to her..."
"Speaking of; where is that jerk?" Jenny asked then everyone looked around and noticed Kevin was gone as well.
At Lavanya's house, Kevin looked around the entire house; the closets, behind the shower curtains, even under cabinets.
Where the hell did she go...? He thought then he heard Momo barking at him. He turned and glared at the chinchilla then sighed.
"You're lucky I don't have time for you, furball." He said as he walked pass Momo. As he walked out of the house he then remembered the night when Lavanya almost killed herself.
"Frickin' moron!" He cursed as he ran towards the cliff. When he arrived he looked around to see if Lavanya left anything like her shoes. He then looked down at the ocean fear in his eyes.
No... No, no, no, no, no! He thought then taking a few steps back he ran and dove into the ocean. He looked around underwater but didn't see Lavanya. As he swam up to catch a deep breath of air he dove right back into the water and swam around.
Am I too late?! He thought as his heart sank. He looked deep down into the dark depths of the sea and swam straight down.
"Come on... Come on!" Jamie said as he was doing CPR on Kevin. What happened was right when Kevin was swimming straight down into the bottom so recklessly he couldn't breath. Luckily, before he did such a foolish and reckless thing, Jamie saw Kevin dive into the ocean from the cliff. The moment the mailman saw the teen dive into the ocean he immediately ran to save him.
"Come on!" Jamie said and just as he was about to blow air into Kevin's mouth, Kevin immediately sat up and started coughing.
"Oh thank goodness..." Jamie said with relief then Kevin gasped realizing he was on shore.
"Why'd you save me?! Lavanya is at the bottom of the ocean!" Kevin shouted as he was about to go back into the water but Jamie quickly hooked his arms around Kevin's arms.
"Let me go! Lavanya needs my help!" Kevin yelled.
"Lavanya wouldn't be so foolish to end her life!"
"You don't know that! You don't know her like how I know her! I know her far more then you do!" Kevin yelled as he tried to break free.
"You're right, I don't know her like how you know her... But what I do know is that Lavanya wouldn't end her life all because her ex boyfriend said something so cruel all because you were jealous!" Jamie said then Kevin swung his fist down and hit Jamie right in the stomach.
"I'm not jealous..." Kevin said while Jamie held his stomach.
"Wait a minute... Why are you walking?" Kevin asked then Jamie was frozen in thought.
In Empire City when Bianca got off the bus she looked around. Sighing softly she started walking. After walking for almost an hour she stopped in front of a door. Lavanya stared at the door then took a deep breath.
"Okay... Here goes..." She told herself then she rang the doorbell. A few seconds later the door opened and a lady with long wavy blond hair came out.
"Yes?" She called then she gasped softly.
"Hi, mom..." Lavanya greeted with a soft yet sad smile.
