New Class (In progress)

Chapter 3

I instantly replied;

Me: Hey! Sorry but uh..do I by any chance know you?

Anon: Hmm.. I don't think so ;)

Me: Who are you??

Anon: Somebody ;)

Me: I know, somebody =_=. Also, weird question but are you a boy or a girl?

Him: A boy ;)

My stomach did a major backflip and my hands were clammy.

Me: Alrighty then :) , are you from my school.

Him: Maybe ;), and you looked pretty today.

I squealed loudly but I forgot it was my bed time. My mom screamed from downstairs, "honey are you still awake? Im coming to check!"

I quickly hid my phone under my pillow as I heard footsteps creeping up the stairs and shut my eyes close. She barged in my room. "Okay good, I thought I heard something. " She then closed the door shut behind her.

After she left, I slowly took out my phone and texted him back.

Me: Thankyou! :). Hey I have to sleep now, we'll talk tomorrow?

Him: Alright, good night dear , sweet dreams :).

The very next day Jane and Lizzie weren't in school.

I began wondering to myself. I did not think they hated me to an extent that they would ditch school in order to avoid me.

During History class I received a text from my dad. The message displayed:
"Honey, come back home as soon as you can. something tragic has happened."

My heart hammered against my chest and I felt the blood rush up to my head.

Mrs Natasha who just finished reading a paragraph about how Hitler rose to power, examined me with her sterling grey eyes.

'Betty, do you need to be excused?' she asked in a soft voice.

I did not know how she new but I nodded my head. "Alright you can leave class." She said as she flashed me a smile.

Taking my bag, I hurried out of class to see what was going on.

Before I pushed open the main door of my house, I vaguely heard muffled cries from inside. I finally swung the door open and there my neighbours stood in a small crowd.

The crowd separated and made a pathway for me to walk.

'Mama?' I knelt down next to her still body. "Mama please don't leave me." I yelled as I shook her chilled body. Tears filled my eyes as I was trying to hold back a cry.

She can't leave me too soon. She was the only person who loved me as much as she loved herself.

My knees went weak and after a while everything turned pitch black...

To be continued! :)
