The truth comes out

After getting back to her table all of the girls looked at Samantha "What are you doing Sammy?!" "Yeah Sammy, don't you know about the rumors going on about Jaya and Karla?"

"Now everyone is going to think that you're a homewrecker or a sore loser. This is seriously going to hurt your social status."

Samantha rolled her eyes as she sat down "Homewrecker? Please, we're still in middle school. What kind of home could I possibly be wrecking.

And it's not like the rumors are true. People are just eating this bullshit up because of Karla's slick acting in the hallway."

One of the girls responded "Yeah, you might be right. But what matters is what other people think. Even if the rumors are fake if everyone thinks that they're true what you just did will seriously damage your position in Jefferson's popularity charts."
