Chapter 14

Trrrriiinggg!! Trrrriiinggg !!

The last bell rang and the girls met at the locker.

"They are holding it this Friday? How? Why?" Kiki said with a huff.

" Well guess we are going shopping today." Said Iris.

The girls were talking about the freshmen party. The school forum and the notice board had posted notice that the freshmen party date is changed and now it's going to be held this Friday. Most of the students were disgruntled because it meant there was less time to prepare for the party. The students who were supposed to perform were panicking because they had much to prepare for. The performances ought be good.

Natasha was walking to get to her locker. She can't be late because her mom is waiting. She can't be late even for a minute. She saw the girls standing in front of the lockers. As she tries to avoid them, she pretends to read one of her books .

Kiki notices her and calls out to her, "Natasha!!"

Natasha tried to avoid but couldn't. She turned her body towards them when suddenly her backpack touched someone's arm hardly that that person's books went tumbling on the floor.

'Fuck!' She turned and kneeled to collect the scattered books.

"I am so sorry! I wasn't paying attention to my surrounding. Very sorry" She was looking down as she realized the corridor is somewhat silent. Another hand reached and took the books from her hand. When she finally saw his face. 'It's him! The guy from the canteen. Beautiful eyes though! What? NO! STOP!'

He didn't even thank her and just walked away.

'Huh! The jerk one who cares about nothing!'

She avoided all the stares and went to her locker where the girls were standing.

" History class was awesome! Mrs. Goodwill is the best history teacher. She even asked me to visit her house" Said Natasha. She also shared some details. Yes! She could be talkative if it's about history and stuff.

" Does that bump with senior Zeno change it all?" Karina said while Anna added, " Yeah, she is talking and rumor has it that Zeno will ask her out."

"You and your source!" Kiki said, " Don't pay attention to her Natasha."

Natasha was confused . "How on earth is Mrs. Goodwill's history class connected to bumping with the boy from the canteen?" She asked.

"She is so sweet and naive " Said Iris " Where did you get the news that Zeno might ask Natasha out?"

"Kyla said that she heard from Jeremy who heard from Goofy that Jerry heard from Julie who heard from Amber who heard from Serene who is Sammy's girl friend." Anna replied while the others were still doubtful.

"Guys! Stop ! I AM STANDING RIGHT HERE! Hello" Natasha said.

"Oops our fault. But darling we are going shopping now. Now, the fresher's is soon so we are going shopping. Text your mom and tell her you will be late. And tell her to send you some money too."

' Holy Crap! Mom!' she stormed out abandoning her confused friends. She was fifteen minutes late. She saw their car. Her mom was frowning and checking her watch. She realized that her mom is super angry when she hit the steering wheel.

"Sorry mom I am late."

"That's why you are walking home. And in fifteen minutes I want you home" Saying so she drove off.

She has to be kidding. It's not possible to walk all the way home only in fifteen minutes. But she has nothing to do.

She walked as fast as she could. But she was still five minutes late.

Her mother was waiting for her in the living room.

"You are five minutes late!" said mom

"It's impo- I am sorry." She was panting, " I am sorry I kept you waiting."

"You knew my daughter, your sister was home alone!

" You haven't made any friends, have you?"

Natasha hung her head low as she lied for the first time. She just nodded a no.

"Still, you are unruly. You are not getting dinner tonight. What if something happened to my little daughter? Go to your room!"

"But, mom-"

"Are you talking back?"

"No, mother your decision is last."

"Go to your room now!"

She went upstairs where she got a little attic room. Which she made her own. She sighed and laid on her bed for a while. Her stomach growled as she just walked a long way, basically ran, now no food.

She knows she has to stay quite.

Also she didn't want any drama before the fresher's. If mom and dad let her join that.
