Chapter 18: CHAPTER 18: Need Help Part II

SCHOOL festival. Our first here in Jackson High. A few moments from now, the program will start and Becca and I will finally do our plan. The thing that we are hoping to help her get close to someone... To Nathan, to be specific.

“Gosh! I can’t wait to dance with him later!” Becca squealed, and I try to look happy for her.

Though I really felt happy helping her, I can’t help myself but to be saddened by the fact that I’m not going to dance with Nathan anymore. I wouldn’t be participating, just like Becca during our practice days.

“Are you okay?” she suddenly asked, making me come back to my senses to face her again... More like to lie again.

“Hey... Y-yeah, I’m fine, Becca. I’m just... You know. I’m nervous. I don’t know what to say to Nathan later on...”

I was half hoping that she will stop this nonsense and she will just let me dance with Nathan like how things supposed to be. But she didn’t, and she was really determined to make my bestfriend only hers.
