Spring

CHAPTER 2

Every after school violet and I would go to the nearby café and buy French fries. Normally we would eat them at the park while complaining about how miserable everyone at our school is.


As we made our way to the bench I went on about what an ass hole Nate was.

"I can't believe him. I have done nothing to him and he feels entitled to make my life a living hell. Sometimes I just want to shove his ego right down his throat so he can choke on it."

"Facts", Violet said, proceeding to take one of my fries.

"Hey eat your own!"

"Sorry, but in my defense you don't like the soggy fries. I am only doing you a favor"

"That is true, but you can take my phone, you can take my cloths and my house, however .... I draw the line when you take one of my fries."

"I won't", Violet said pleading for my 'forgiveness' "but Laura if you ever want me to smack some sense into Nate I will trust me."

There Violet goes again. She has been worried about me more and more since now I'm targeted by a bit of people. Nate in particular. I appreciate her concern I don't want to get her involved. I would feel terrible.

"It's OK I can manage"

Looking at me with worry in her eyes she gave in "OK."

"Wait Laura, I just thought what if Nate keeps on picking on you because he likes you. You know what they say when a boy likes you they pick on you"

"OMG, Violet don't make me throw up! That is horrific. Even if he did I would reject him on the spot."

After a long conversation of which types of French fries were better 'soggy or crispy', I headed home to get some homework out the way.

It was around six and mom was in the kitchen heating up some leftovers. I was greeted by a wet kiss to the shin from my cat, Moon. Picking Moon up the sweet aroma of mashed potatoes lead me into the kitchen.

"Hey mom how are you?"

"Good Lua, can you just put down Moon, she is getting fur every where"

"Mom think of poor Moon, maybe she wants to be held more often", I said swaying her back and forth.

" You could hold her once you start brushing her."

"touché", I said as I let Moon go.

"Dinners almost ready but before you eat go up to your room and get some work done", she said waving the spoon in the air.

"Fine", I groaned.

Walking up to my bedroom I glanced into the study to see if dad was home. To my disappointment he wasn't. Probably another all nighter. Wasn't to surprised.

Tackling my math assignment , procrastination took over leading me to my laptop. Straight away I signed into the app VixEn. It was an app were you could join online communities that you share common interests with. I signed up to the doodling community, were I post my art.

Having quiet a bit of friends in the community was refreshing. I would often chat with them asking and giving art tips. I was well aware with the consequences of the internet, it didn't concern me.

Opening the app I noticed I received a text from '9TailedFox' one user I would talk to often.
