Unexpected

"Well for starters, we could always cut her hair off in lesson and-"

"Um that's a bit far Rolo." What is wrong with this boy?

"I think you should confront her and ask what her problem is. I mean, you've been friends for a long time now you can't let her do this."

That would be a very Rani thing to do. She honestly loves arguments and causing trouble between others while she watches. Kind of psychotic really.

"Because you've been friends for ages, I think you should give her the benefit of the doubt and wait it out to see what happens.  Everyone has those days when they act out and maybe today was hers."

Ah Anastasia, ever the optimist. She tends to lean towards the nicer and less confrontational options which is completely opposite to Rani.

"I still think cutting her hair would be fun."

Rolo is on another level. Half the time I don't even know how to respond to the things he says.

Ignoring him, I reply to Rani and Ana.

"Both of you have valid points but I think I'm gonna go with what Ana said and try to see if anything else happens. I have to admit though, it did annoy me when she grabbed his hand."

"Yeah we know Keziah. You literally stormed out of the room." Says Ana who I can practically see rolling her eyes.

"Yeah.." Remembering how I could hear both Rolo and Rani shouting at Eliza, I decide to question them. "Wait, what were you guys saying to her while I left. Cause I could hear the yelling match between Rolo, Rani and Eliza."

"Um nothing." Rani says this quickly making it sound suspicious.

"Rolo?" I ask.

He sighs through the phone, "She was basically saying how it will never work out between you and Abel."

I feel my eyebrows raise upwards from shock and irritation.

"Wow." I say. "At least I know where I stand now."

"Don't worry about her Keziah. Abel has his eyes set only on you trust me." Replies Ana.

Still feeling annoyed from the recent revelation, I decide to change the topic to prevent my anger from rising. "Anyway, Abel invited me to his house tomorrow and I think I might meet his parents. I'm excited and-"

Before I can actually finish speaking, I'm interrupted by someone barging into my room.

Turning my head towards my door, I find it's no one other than my older brother Marcel. What a surprise-not. He literally has no clue about boundaries or respect. I could be dressing up in here people! I want a lock on my door; I have actually asked for one but obviously my parents said no. I have no idea why though. Moving on-

"Would you stop barging into my room like that, it's annoying." I say to him.

"No can do sis. Who are you talking to?"

"None of your business now get out."

"Hi Marcel!" Shouts Rolo from the phone. They're both as annoying as each other, maybe they should be siblings. What an idea.

"Is that Rolo? Is Tenaya there too? Can I talk to her?"

Hmmm interesting. He so likes her. I'm gonna have fun with this I can tell already.

"No Marcel, if I'm talking to Rolo why would Tenaya be there. If you want to talk to her so badly then call her yourself. Now get out!" While shouting at him, I throw multiple pillows to try and get my message across.
