- HAZEL -
The remaining days at the beach house went from what I thought was a chaotic ntal disaster to sothing actually relaxing. When I shoved all my problems aside, at least. I have to admit, it was fun to just be girls. Normal, stupid and sotis dumb, fun girls with little to no care in the world. With nothing way out of the ordinary disturbing our lives. With enough outside ti which helped us connect with nature and decently enough inside ti. With barbecues and sushis and every other thing to tag this as a girly vacation. No stress at all.
I love the fact that our school is on an academic pause. I love that it gives ti to get myself back together and figure out without having to worry about my grades or so manipulative ex who wanted to kill . While I do not like the gun wound at all, everything else seems to factor in really well.
Which is why I dread when the academic year begins. I should be studying and preparing for the exams I couldn’t write in case we begin our session with that but I’m letting everything school related drown in the gutter till school actually begins.
Then my life may go back to being shitty again, who knows? I chuckle under my breath. I’m currently seated at the back of a private van with everyone else in here. While they’re all scattered in front, I chose to be alone. For no actual reason, I’m just not in the mood for chatter.
We’re heading for a brunch. We call it the icing on top of the relaxing beach house vaca. I have to admit, I love being rich and entangled with rich people. Not a lot of people have spare houses they can run to when things don’t go well for them. And not a lot of people can afford to book tickets to go on vacations to clear their heads. To everyone out there who has financial needs that always drains them up, be it with family or life conditions, I am cheering them on. It’s never easy being strong despite everything bad life offers yet they remain strong and find happiness with little monts, those are the real kings and queens.
I am more of the entitled pussy because I could barely last when life kicked my ass with Asami. She’s a cause for ptsd. I shudder.
The van cos to a halt. I look out the window, confused. This does not look like a spot where we’d normally hang, not that it looks bad, the skyscraper before just makes think of this place as a corporate company rather than a place suitable for brunch. I have so many questions but I keep it in hoping one of them say sothing.
“Forgive people, we’re just making a brief stop then we’d be on our way.” Kate cooes.
The groans and murmurs of complaints that follows after pleases . At least I’m not the only one eager to be at the brunch. I’m hungry. Starved. Parched. Whichever word fits.
“You all can co out too. If you all weren’t man-less, I’d have invited all your boyfriends over.” She blurts out. This has to be the funniest thing ever. “Consider this a chance to explore new things.”
“New people you an.” Pat chis. I can’t see her face but I’m sure that if I did, I’d have seen her roll her eyes.
“For the sake of good.” Kate says.
“Get out of here, you hoe.” Resa comnts jokingly.
“It’s not hoeing when you’ve got a serious relationship.” Kate holds her hand up, showing her ring. It’s an engagent ring. Scratch everything I thought about earlier about feeling better. This reveal to us makes feel a lot worse and like an absolute asshole.
“Get that fake thing out of here. Would’ve worked in high school but not here. I’m grown.” Resa barks, shoving her hand in the air, gesturing her discarding of Kate’s words. The other girls burst out laughing, Kate included.
Only I know it’s real.
I know she’s engaged yet I’m about to be the real ass bitch among us because I’m having an affair with her fiancé.
If it makes you feel better, it’s an open relationship, the voice in my head reminds. I’ll use this to hold myself from loosing my shit.
“Okay, girls, I’ll be here in a minute.” Kate says, her voice raised. She sounds cheerful.
“Yeah, yeah, I’ll be here to sulk my single ass off.” Pat says.
“I hope there are eye candies out there.” Resa chis. It seems one of the girls gave her a judgntal look. “What? My boyfriend’s being ass right now, might as well stare at sothing else. It’s not cheating when you’re not doing or thinking anything wrong.” She points out.
Right. The sarcasm in my thoughts is obvious.
“Co on out, Hazel, I invited Liam over too.”
This imdiately makes my ears twitch. Oh. Oh wow. I force a smile on my face as I stand. Killian will be there, and I’d have to fake a relationship while being unable to et him myself. I sigh under my breath.
“Sotis, it feels like only you gets .” I lie, keeping my tone cheerful. I walk forward then glance back to stare at Patty. “Enjoy sulking, sucker.” I tease before averting my face back forward and stepping out.
Just great, I roll my eyes, obviously distressed.
