CHAPTER 23 "APOLOGY FROM...."
It was now Sunday night. Bored with nothing to do, I decided to get my detention slip signed.
Instead of trying to get around trouble, I asked my mom straight out.

"Mom, I got detention. I need you to get it signed." I simply said. She asked me why but I ignored
her and just handed it to her. She looked at it and signed it.

"I'm not going to give it to you until you explain this. Lying? I thought you knew better than that."

Me not in the mood to argue, I just told her, "I lied because my life is horrible." I admit it was lame
but my mom looked at me like I just threatened her. I guess it was because I was like a whole new
person. I stepped up to her, took the form, and slammed my door walking in.

I got that done. I checked my phone and ignored everything considering not even Jamie and
Victoria never called me once. The only call I got was from an unknown number. I didn't pick up.

The rest of the night I just did homework and slept early. The earliest I have ever slept for years.

Monday morning. I pushed got up feeling down. I just put on blue sweat with a white tank top
and a black hoodie on top. I didn't pay attention to the day. I just got on the bus with no Jamie
or Victoria. When I got to school, they didn't even bother to say a simple sorry.

I threw the detention slip on Mr. Lasagna's desk and that was basically all I remember well that day.
Well that and also, two other things. Bell and Jason.

She had a brunette with green eyes. She looked about, just a guess, 5'0. She was super shy but when
I got to know her a little, she was so energetic. So hyper and happy. Taking the opportunity since I
was basically had no friends, I took the chance and we became friends.

Next Jason. He came up to me after school. He ran up to, he panted and then said, "I was looking
for you but you ignored me every time. i even tried calling you." Thinking back, I remembered his
face before school, down the hallways, lunch, science. Now that he got my full attention, I smiled.
He was looking for me!

"Heather, sorry about the call. I wasn't there and Taylor told me about it during the weekend. I had
no part in it and I just wanted to say sorry for it because no one else wants to say sorry." He put his
hand on my shoulder.

It was nice but thinking about the call on Friday, I shook it off. "Sorry." I told him. He could be lying.
Whether I had a crush on him or not. I took hold of my backpack and walked away which turned
into running.

I didn't bother taking the bus home. I got home on foot and when I got there, I went up to my room,
ignoring my mom..

I just pulled out my homework and started it but I couldn't seem to figure out the answers. I threw my
pencil at the wall and got up. I was going to go out. Where? The park.

A few minutes later, I was on my way to the park that had a few kids in it. It was my favorite child-
hood park. I went next to the slide and sat under it. I loved the spot because there was supporters
on the slide which covered me up on the sides and in front of me, a few feet away was another slide.

It was like I was in my own person space. I started crying thinking about the bad things in my life. Me
being on the sand, I wiped my tears with my fingers and on the sand, I drew a 3 hearts. In it was H+V
which was Heather+Victoria. Next was H+J which was Heather+Jamie. The last one was H+J. I'm sure
you know what that means.

After that, I slashed the heart making it broken. In the middle of crying a small girl. She looked
familiar and I knew why. It was Priscilla. Jason's little sister and behind her was Jason. He looked at
me and asked, "Why are you alone and crying?" I ignored him, he should know why.

Jason knowing I wasn't going to reply he said, "6:45, meet me in front of your house." then he left.

What did he mean?
