Angelica had been lying in her bedroom for the past three days. She felt overwhelmed after Brianna, Kate, and Mary began blackmailing her about losing the election for class president. This added stress led to arguments with her mother, whom Angelica had accused of being a terrible parent. Her mother refused to take responsibility for her actions, worsening their conflicts. Eventually, the neighbors noticed the odd behavior between Angelica and her mother and began to question what was happening.

As Angelica tried to sit in bed, she was overwhelmed by her emotions following the arguments. She glanced at a photograph taken just a year ago in elementary school, featuring her and her classmate Susie, along with other students. Angelica couldn't believe how much she had grown over the years. She also noticed the changes in her bedroom; her original bedding had been replaced with a queen-size mattress and a new bed frame.

Her mother, Charlotte Pickles, was in her late 40s and the Director of Reform. She was finally back at the facility, where they joyfully welcomed her. Outside, the sound of rain filled the air, drowning out the noise from her mother's phone conversation, which was focused on business matters.

As Angelica remained lost in her thoughts, one person came to mind: Susie Carmichael, her first and only best friend, who understood her without judgment. Angelica imagined Susie sitting by her side and hugging her. She struggled to express her feelings about how much Susie meant to her, but deep down, Angelica knew that Susie would someday discover the truth about the blackmail. Little did Angelica realize she was correct; how Susie would find out remained unknown.

During high school, Angelica felt increasingly annoyed by her actions and emotions. She often reflected on her relationships with other girls who disapproved of her moderate and affectionate behavior towards women, which had caused her problems over the past ten years. This was particularly true when she began to develop emotional feelings for Susie Carmichael.

(Hello, readers. Sorry for the interruption, but it looks like I have to take you all back two years earlier to understand what's going on )

Angelica, who has been in high school for three years and is nearing her fourth and final year before graduating, always felt different. The only person who truly understood her was Susie, her best friend. She experiences feelings she can't quite grasp whenever she is with Susie, especially around boys; boys can be unpleasant. They engage in repulsive behavior like picking their noses and making fart jokes. She would much rather play with her dolls.

Five years have passed, and Angelica is now in high school. She begins to experience conflicts with her mother, who wants her to behave like she does. However, every time Angelica tries to conform, she struggles. To help, her mother turns to Susie for advice. Instead of supporting her mother's expectations, Susie encourages Angelica to be herself and not worry about what her mother wants. This is when Angelica starts to recognize her feelings.

After talking with her mother about her problems, Susie noticed her watch on the third floor near the Science and Technology lab. She knew her history class was about to start around 10:00, so she told Angelica she was running last for history class and that the conversation could resume after school, which she agreed to.

She was barely paying attention to the mathematics lesson, but the sensation of Susie's lips kept distracting her.

'Brianna, the nosiest Popular girl in Jim Jr. Junior High School, would notice Angelica's actions and not pay attention to the lessons in mathematics. The popular girl, a few sites from her, texted about her daydreaming.

' Texted messages between Brianna and Angelica"

Brianna: Daydreaming again in mathematics means constantly changing your behavior and Deficiency to get the job done. Who knows how lengthy the process will be?

Angelica: daydreaming about you're none experience in keeping your nosey mathematical model ass out of my business before you go flying, and you're getting tough to shit out.

Brianna: If you stopped daydreaming about kissing Susie or any girl in class, you might get somewhere in life. Instead, you constantly have wet dreams about Susie.

'Angelica was so upset that she left the classroom and went to the bathroom to cry.' she burst into tears. It destroyed the most important part of her life in ways nobody else could understand the importance of genuine affection. It wasn't long before movements could be heard from the outside girl's bathroom. Outside of the girls' bathroom were Brianna, Mary, and Kate; her eyes widened the fare in her gazes. The girls came to help her and felt terrible and asked what was wrong. Still, she couldn't say what she felt, so she made up a lie about what had been going on that she was failing class but to get her grade up, she wanted to see if they could help her out, but the one girl out of the other the girl she has a crush wish to help her out.

After that conversation with Brianna, Mary, and Kate inside the girl's bathroom, Angelica headed back to mathematics, grabbing her things like her book bag, notebook, and textbook, which she carefully stuffed inside. Right after she's about the head of the classroom door, her teacher, Miss Rosenthal, stops Angelica dead in her tracks and wants to speak with her about her actions of leaving the classroom in the middle of a ledger. "Angelica Pickles, may I have a statement on leaving my classroom, young lady? I've never seen such behavior left alone for the last couple of weeks, so I would like to explain. "Asked Miss Rosenthal, waiting for Angelica's response after leaving her mathematics class. Angelica slowly turns around to look at her teacher and comments, "Well, Miss Rosenthal, the truth is I've been falling behind on a bunch of different school projects and haven't been getting much sleep lately, and I haven't had the best of luck in finding the help you know," she purposely lied about falling behind on homework and projects that we're already done. Still, the problem was that she was scared of her teacher discovering the truth behind her lies. ' Miss Rosenthal signed up after hearing about Angelica and made up a story about her falling behind on school projects, which made her curious about Angelica's actions. Miss Rosenthal stood up from her chair to Comfort Angelica by hugging her close, making her tear down from pain.

Angelica lets out the most heartbreaking cries that were held back by the emotions that encompass all of the things that caused her problems in the past 10 years of experience in the disagreements with her mother about the mixed-match emotions and the impression that Holds her back. Mrs. Rosenthal continues to comfort her. She slowly places her finger underneath her chin and lifts her head to make eye contact with her like the mother figure, and comments, " Angelica honey, you're wonderfully made, and the most caring somebody who I could personally call my daughter and by gazes I've noticed the signs since it started the beginning of the school year you barely spoke with your classmates, you're friends and the civilization in other words, if you have any problems or Question about anything you could always reach out to me. Watching you struggle hurts, but why'd you be so comfortable and not receiving a helping hand? Mrs. Rosenthal curiously wanted to know the real problem with Angelica's actions during mathematics.

Angelica glances back at Mrs. Rosenthal and replies, "I've been trying to determine whether or not speaking of this would be proof of anything that would make it easier for you to understand. Nobody bothered to Question it.

Angelica darling, understand that I'm your teacher and a mother, the figure who's willing to hear anything; hiding things from Mommy worries me more than anything else. You have to head to study hall and remember you're cared for, and I love you so much, " comments Mrs. Rosenthal. After their conversation, she writes Angelica a hall past the study hall on the first floor near the Library.

Before taking off, Angelica handed her the hall pass and told her she loved her and appreciated being cared for.

Leading the way to study Hall, Angelica quickly stopped at her locker and put away her school stuff that wasn't, but she only kept the things needed for her topics after that, locked up, and headed to study hall.'

Meanwhile, in the study hall, Angelica browses the Internet, glancing at the latest version of the Cynthia Dolls she has always wanted for Christmas; it wasn't long enough before she received a text from her mother reminding her she was staying with her.

Cousins were around during weather break, and she'd been home on Monday. This triggered anger and stress in Angelica, who knew that she deeply hated her cousins and didn't want to be bothered by them. However, this didn't change the fact that she wished to Susie's lips, which she'd been craving for a while. The craving drove Angelica crazy, so she turned while covering her face, embarrassed.

A few hours later, the study hall had finished, which meant Angelica and Susie had lunch together; they both agreed to meet at the lunchroom, which they did. She was waiting patiently for her while she was grabbing food. She arrived seconds before the late bell started to ring from being stuck with her last class watch, Jim's class.

Susie grabbed her lunch, spotted Angelica and the others sitting at the table, and headed toward them. They were talking amongst themselves, and the others were conversing about things like shopping, boys, and others.

"Sorry for the holdup, "Susie comments while sitting across on the other side of the table and eating her food. I decided to shower before lunch, known for its much quicker to access anyway, so anything new happens today ", questions Susie, "

"No worries, but yeah, something did happen today. My mom texted me about going to my aunt and uncle's house for a water break from school, and I can't stress enough that it didn't work out. Being over there is not a reasonable amount of time. I had to put up with the agreements, and then I couldn't. "

Susie continued to listen to her before swallowing her food, and she noticed that her eyes were red from crying, and she also noticed she was hiding something from her. She sighed while commenting, "She texted you during study hall and let you know where you were gonna be for winter break, and I don't understand why you hate Tommy and Dil so much that cases agreements."

After their conversation, the lunch period officially ended, and everyone was headed for the bus. Angelica asked Susie if she wanted to spend the weekend with her, and she happily agreed.
