Chapter 21- Friendship over
"What are you two doing here?" I ask while staring at the two holding an umbrella.
"Silly for you." They both said at the same time.
"Tell me now, are you reading each other's minds," I question them and look back at each other while the rain is pouring.
"Argh! Just get here. You'll get sick" Lucas grabbed me but Kendrick pulled me away.
"You know what, never mind. I need to do something." I was about to leave them both but they held my hands.
"We're going home." Lucas declared and Kendrick agreed with him as nothing happened between them. They take me home and take care of me. They even ordered me to take a shower even if I don't but they make it happen.
"The soup is ready, come out there," Kendrick yelled.
"Alright, just a minute " I yelled back and they gave me silence. I got into the kitchen and I smells yummy soup on the kitchen table.
"So why are you all alone in the rain," Lucas asked while having a sip of the soup.
"Uh, it's just ah." I sighed as I can't say the word or explain myself.
"But what you did earlier was so amazing. " Kendrick cheered me and Lucas too.
"indeed." He agrees with Kendrick.
"Alright it's on me, take a rest." Lucas smiled and I thank him. I have already gotten into my room and was still thinking about Faith's actions while staring at the ceiling.
"I can't believe you." I sobbed.
"I'll never give up to know the reason why." I sniffled and wipes my tears away. She's been with me for a year and one day she went ignoring me like I didn't even exist in her world. That makes me want to be angry at her but I can't. She's been my sister since I've met her. She's always clingy and kind. She never leaves me. I didn't know that I fall asleep while I'm crying.
"Goodmorning," I stated when I got out of the door, feeling dizzy and almost fell over where I was standing. So Kendrick came up to me and I clung to him.
"Oh my Goodness Isabella," Kendrick shouted causing Lucas to come over.
"What?" Lucas ranted while scratching his eye and obviously he's just awakened.
"The excessive heat of Isabella's body. She has a fever." He replied.
"What, I'm fine." I pushed him away and starts to walk but here we go again, I almost fell but the two had my back.
"Okay okay, bring me down," I command for them to put me down. They support me to sit on the sofa in the living room opposite my bedroom.
"Are you alright? Here's the water." Lucas brings me a glass of water and I drink it out of nowhere. I feel weak and couldn't help to stand up by myself but I couldn't miss class. I already miss three days and I won't let it to be four, I also need to go to Faith's and ask for her forgiveness and an answer for ignoring me.
"I'm fine, let's go," I called them and go out.
"Get inside the car." Lucas declared and Kendrick supports me to get in safe. Even I feel weak, I tried to comfort myself and be strong.
"You don't have to bring my bag," I mumbled to Kendrick.
"Yeah, he does," Lucas claimed, I look at Kendrick's face and he smiles at me when he caught me staring. I smiles back at him and continued walking toward the classroom.
"Thank you." I thanked Kendrick for bringing the bag for me.
"Oh here's the princess with her two prince charming. What a slut." Faith suddenly broadcasted when I sit beside her.
"Are you referring to me?" I blubber but trying not to.
"Oh gosh, sweetie are you affected by what I'm saying? I didn't even mention a name. " She grinned. She acts like we're not even bestfriend, I just ignore her and sat down by the chair trying not to cry, because my fever will only get worst.
"Hey, are you alright?" Kiel questions.
"Uh yeah sure, I'm not affected by her. " I answered.
"Nah, I'm not pertaining to Faith's word I know you're not affected. I'm talking about your face. It's getting red and I noticed that you feeling cold." He said while giggling.
"Oh, now it's three, careful sweetie. You might get crazy to choose over them." Faith teased me again.
"What the hell, Fvck Faith stop fvcking around and telling people that Isabella's a slut." I was devastated by the words Kiel spoke, I couldn't help to cry, and made me run through out the door.
I hear Kiel, Lucas, and Kendrick follow me. While I'm catching breaths. I also didn't care or know if I'm bumping into people. I don't care if people will make fun of me. I just can't accept the fact that she tells the people nonsense. I felt something going on with me. I wanted to hate myself for Faith. Maybe I did something wrong or that makes her angry and come further to this point.
I didn't notice myself starting to fall down.
FAITH'S POV,
I hate her. I hate her for being the center of attraction, I hate all the attention she gets.
"What the hell, Fvck Faith stop fvcking around and telling people that Isabella's a slut." Kiel cursed me and I was just keeping strong and tried to make my face cool, even if I saw my one and only Bestfriend who always stays with me crying because of what Kiel told me.
I'll admit it, I'm getting hurt seeing her cry. Her tears are dropping from her precious eyes. She run away from me and Kiel gave me a death glare before following Isabella.
I followed them after a minute I realized what I have done to my sister, not in blood but in my heart. I followed them, My heart was pounding and beating too fast when I saw her bumping into students and falling down to the ground, getting up and running like she went crazy.
My heart almost dropped when she fell to the ground. I saw her unconscious. Lucas carried Sophia and take her to the clinic. Kendrick and Kiel are also there.
"Is she okay?" I calmly said while waiting for Lucas to come out.
"Look what did you do." Kiel scolded me like I kill Sophia.
"I-I'm so-sorry, I didn't know." I sobbed and my hands are shaking, no one could help me. Because they think that I'm stupid and being angry and spreading a piece of fake news about Sophia.
We waited for minutes and Lucas came out but Sophia was still there lying in the bed unconscious.
"She's fine, but her temperature was so high. She got it from the rain while she was waiting for someone who didn't show up. " Lucas said trying to make me hear it. I feel sorry for her and what I did.
"Can I see her?" I pleased them, they definitely didn't agree but someone tapped my shoulders.
"Go on, talk to me," Sophia responded, I cried so loud and hug her.
"I'm sorry." I apologize and beg for her forgiveness. I felt she was hugging me back.
"Stop crying, it makes me cry." She sighed.
"I'm so sorry." I cried.
"Shh, Leave us. Go on." She told the three to go away. I held her hands and help her to go to the clinics' bed.
"Could you forgive me?" I mumbled, trying to talk nicely with her.
"How could I not." She hugs me tight and I hug her back.
"I'll admit it, I'm getting jealous of the attention you get. First I like Lucas but you told me that you like him and as your bestfriend. I keep it a secret and tries to forget him and I did it. Second, there was Kendrick. I fell in love when I first saw him. I felt like that cupid shoot me in my heart." I chuckled a little bit even though I know that I look like a crazy woman.
"And then, there he was waiting for you. When I receive the message you sent me the one that Lucas tells you that he likes you too and Kendrick was also sweet. I kinda felt jealous that time. I want to pursue myself that I'm not as good as you. I'm not as pretty as you, as kind as you do. I felt like you've taken everything even Trixie and Kiera. I can't help myself and that day I starve myself not knowing it can cause me to bring by them to the hospital." I explained and she keeps listening to me.
"And now, I can't feel jealousy on you. I admired you, no matter how bad I'm at you and what did I cause you. You're still here hugging me, keeping me warm, and making me like I'm home. Thank you, thank you for staying with me." I said.
"Are you done explaining yourself?" She asked.
"Uh yes, I guess," I replied.
"C'mon, I want to show you something!" She said and grabbed me, I can tell that she have a high fever so I stop her.
"Stay here, stay with me." I hug her tight as I could be.
"Ohhh, You two did makeup." The two said from the outside.
"You're here?" I screamed out of nowhere when I saw Kendrick's face turns red and I almost passed out but they just laughed at me the three of them.
