so, still happened for real. That chapter wrote himself down. I still remember the day i wrote it for you. Reviews please, tell me what you think.
February 9th:
I'm walking in the hall toward the exit. Someone is running behind me.
"'Johanna, wait for me!" Madge undersee runs after me. Yeah, now she's in my bus.
She walks with me, and I don't say a word. Madge doesn't realize I hate her. And that's sad.I enter the bus, and she sits beside me.
" are you ok?" She asks. " yeah, yeah" I wave. I look out the window, hoping she won't talk to me more."'this weekend, I'm going to volunteer for the old people." She's informs me even thought I haven't asked. " cool" I say bored. Yeah, now she's nice. Fuck you. She finally gets off the bus, and I take off my fake smiles even the bus driver sees I hate her.
I arrive home, and I take off my hat and mittens. Nobody's home, as ever. I throw myself on the couch, and take a nap. I'm awoken by my stepdad, entering.
" why don't you get off the couch and work?" He asks exasperated.
" why don't you get a life?" I mutter. I get off the couch and go to my room.
I get on line to see of Gale is connected, but he isn't. He's never. I sigh and decide to eat something.
" hey, mom?" I ask in the kitchen. The silence is reigning. " well, I guess we eat craft dinner tonight" I say to myself. I begin prepare my food, and sit at the table to eat it. Even though it tastes like shit most of the time, craft dinner Is one of my favorite easy doing food.
I sit on my bed, facetiming with Katniss. She's babysitting two little brats, and I hear them yelling about their toys.
" so, tomorrow's the math exam. You ready?" She asks.
" yeah,think so." I answer. The doorbell rings." Sorry, I gotta go, love you" I log off, and go into the hall.
" hey, Johanna, could you babysit Emily and Jeremy?" My neighbor asks. Shes a nice lady, even though I hate children, I can do it for her. The kids come in, and since I babysit the little boy few times, he likes me okay. The mother sticks the baby in my arms, and leaves. I stay there, with a 6 and 1 year old.
" do you have blocks?" Jeremy asks.
" dude, I'm like, 17 . I don't play with blocks anymore." I answer him. He looks like he's about to cry. I got downstairs and find old toys I used to play with. Emily is happily sitting on my laps, and plays with her big brother.
Few hours past, and the kids are still there. I'm kind of tired of them.
" can I play with your iPad?" He asks.
" if you do so, will you stop yelling?" I ask and he nods. I pass him the tablet, and he starts playing angry birds. The little girl is playing with one of my old toy.
Katniss calls me FaceTime again, and I answer it. We talk for a while, and the little boy doesn't seem happy.
" Stop throwing things in the house!" Katniss yells at her kids. " no! don't do that, lizzy! JUST SHUT UP!" She yells even louder, and I hang up so Jeremy doesn't run off and tell his mother my friend just swore.
Finally two hours later, their mother picks them up, but doesn't even pay me. That's exactly why I hate babysitting and don't want to have children.
February 11th :
I am in Katniss car and we're driving to her house. The radio is silent, and so are we.
" so, you have a guy in mind?" Katniss asks.
" maybe" I answer. I debate whether or not I should tell her I love Gale. I mean, it's her best friend. What if she tells him? I'd be screwed.
" maybe...? Tell me,come on!" She urges.
" you know him." I say.
" is it finnick? Please, tell me it's not finnick!" She please. I chuckle and shake my head no.
" so, who is it ?" She asks excitedly. I take a deep breath. " kat, it's, it's... Gale" I say in a tiny voice.
She's shocked. She pulls the car, and hugs me. " honey, is that why you were crying the other day?" She asks and I nod. We spend the rest of the afternoon laughing, and talking. I feel relieve I told my best friend.
February 12th:
Madge has taken an habit into walking with me to the bus stop. I clench my fists and teeth each time, and resist the urge to punch her. I feel someone muttering behind me, and I stop try to listen.
" I love you. Yeah, I love you. " the person says. I turn and see finnick. His cheeks reddish, and he runs away.
" he must be saying that for me" Madge says. I roll my eyes. Of course! How could anyone love me, right? Stupid dumb bitch. For the rest of the day, she talks about Gale and finnick and how they love her, and how she doesnt love them back,and she doesn't know what to do, and blablabla.
Later that night, I text finnick.
" so, you love Madge?" I ask him curiously. I swear, if someone loves Madge again, i Will go nuts.
" HAHAHAHAHAHA, oh, honey. I dont give a shit about Madge! But there is that one girl..." He trails. I sooooo relieved. But i do wonder who is that girl.
February 14th.
Valentine day. Or, like i Call it: normal friday. I'm in phys. Ed. Class, stretching, when i hear two of madge's best friend: glimmer and Clove.
" dont you think it's sweet Gale gave Madge chocolate?" Glimmer asks.
" i think it's Gay" clove responds. Well, we agree on that, Kentwell.
Katniss looks at me, since she heard the conversation. I shrug at her, trying to pretend nothing happened. Even though, I'm burning.
" ive got bad news" she announces. " you know while we were to my place,tuesday?" I nod." Gale was with the boys, and he told them he was gonna kiss Madge today, and ask her to be his girlfriend." She drops the bomb.
" you fucking kidding me?" I ask in disbelieve. She shakes her head no. I feel a tear run down my cheek. I get up." I'm gonna go on the treadmill." I say. I run on it for like 45 minutes, and i dont stop. When i stop, gale is giving me the thumbs up and i ignore him.
In english class, Madge comes to see me." I heard Gale is going to kiss me After school" she says to me. " yeah, i heard that" i say coldly. What the hell does she wants?
When the Bell rings, i get out of the locker room, just to be sure i dont catch them kissing. I get in the bus, and Madge gets in a while later. She tells me everything, in details.
" and then, he said, hold my books to finnick." She says. " he was so nervous, it was really cute!" She exclaims. When madge gets out of the bus, finch comes to talk with me.
" that girl is like, fucking dumb. She doesn't deserve gale. " she conforts me. I get out of the bus, and crash in my bed for the night. My parents dont even remark I'm not talking. Gale textes me.
" hey, i got a girlfriend !"
" great!" I cry even more sending this text. I hate february 14th.
