Chapter-1: Do you have a death wish
“I re- really am not good at run-running, Jul.”
Said a boy with dark brown hair and grey eyes, huffing.
“You aren't! If you w- want to then...run to sch- school daily, without me, Max! I said angrily even though I was huffing.
I had, raven wavy black hair which was jumping with every step I take and tickled my neck, and green eyes which was filled with anger and tiredness.
“Nah! Yo- you are my best fri- friend and I should not leave my friend a- alone, Right?”
“No time! Run! School's only a few meters ahead!”

We both ran through the corridors to our classroom. And to our luck, the teacher was not there which means we made it on time. A boy with black hair and orange eyes gasped when he saw us, “Blake... I am going to kill you”I mumbled angrily. Max, who was beside me glared at Blake and started walking towards a boy who was sitting alone and was one of my best friend, Will. So, I sat beside Lexi, who has light brown wavy hair and sky blue eyes. If I talk about it, Blake was my betrayer friend, Max was a cool friend, who rarely even get angry, Will was my bookworm friend, I take advices from him when I buy any book. Lexi was my best friend of all, she was kind, sweet and always honest which put us in many problems in elementary school. And if Harry Potter stories really was true she would be a true Hufflepuff.
“Julekha, did you study for today's test?? It's really difficult! What are geometry and algebra in the first place??”Lexi asked me taking her eyes from the mathematics textbook.
“How the hell is it difficult girl??”i asked her unimpressed.
Yes, I am a brilliant student at mathematics. That is why I didn't want to be late.
“Everyone isn't a bookworm like you” Lexi replied
I glanced at Will, who was sitting in the bench beside Lexi then Lexi said “I didn't mean a bookworm who just read story book."
“Excuse me”said Will, raised an eyebrow at her
“Oh, sorry”Said Lexi in shock
“Will you please shut the hell up! can't a girl study here peacefully? And Julekha, please study anything or I'll hit you with this freaking mathematics textbook! Why are mathematics in 10th grade so difficult??”cried Katie from the bench beside me, she has straight violet hair and yellow eyes which was filled with confusion
she was sitting with Blake who was scratching his head for the last five minutes.
The classroom door opened and Miss. Sherly came in, her black hair tied in a bun and a lot of papers in her hand. She placed the papers and her pouch on the teachers desk and turned to face us
“Good evening children. Hope you remember about today's test...”
everyone in the class groaned, except me and a boy with black hair and grey eyes, who I haven't seen before.
“... Julekha, please give these papers to each student...”
I stood up and nodded brightly, I took the papers from the teachers table and started giving the papers to everyone. When I reached Blake's bench he bit his lips when I handed him the paper. Katie stared at the paper for a whole minute, Max was handling it very well, he circled the option he like without even hesitating, Lexi was staring at paper and me, Will seemed pretty excited when I handed him the paper, after I handed everyone the paper I took one and sat on my seat. When I saw the paper my excitement doubled, it all was easy. I was the first or second one who finished the test, because me and the boy with black hair and grey eyes have completed in on the same time.
***
After the 'freaking' test, which is what my friends call it, we went to the other classes and the teacher said the boy with black hair and grey eyes was a new student, who's name was Alex. Now we're at the canteen for the lunch, I decided to forgive Blake for what he did today morning, he said he will be coming with me and Max, and we waited for him for 15 minutes outside his house and when there were no sign of him, we decided to go inside and his mother told he had already gone to school. That's why we were almost late.
“Did you find any new story to read” asked Will eating a Choco chip cookie
“Oh yes! I got 3 stories!”
“What is it?”all of my friends asked, even though they don't like reading real books but like to read from mobile apps. My weird friends.
“Okay! First story - Someone like Juliet...”
All of them took their phone and took and searched for the story.
“Second story- The girl in the hoodie and third story- His Oreo princessa”
“wait, did you just say 'Oreo'?" Asked Blake looking confused
“Yes i***t! Oreo! Now don't tell me you want Oreo!”
“Juls, you know—”
But was cut of by a laughter of a girl, who was standing behind him. “Ah! This Winter b***h! This isn't even winter, then why was she here!” I asked myself. As if read my Blake whispered to me
“she probably want to know the stories you said or want to buy Oreos with me”
I just ignored him and asked Winter
“What are you doing here and why are you laughing like a maniac??”
She just continued laughing. And she pulled Alex who was passing by us slowly, and said “You know who he is? He is from the United States and you know that I am also from there, and we're dating” she placed a hand over her mouth and started laughing again.
We don't know why she was saying all this to us “Probably because no one would ever listen to her except us. We are very kind you know” I thought. Alex was making sure that he was being uncomfortable with her so I said
“You can keep Alex out of this, can't you see he's uncomfortable with you. And we don't want to hear your Love story, Winter.” I told her calmly, making her hands turned into fists, she pushed Alex and I hold his hand from preventing his fall, I'm way too strong, because he didn't fall on the ground. He then looked at me
“You really are strong, and why did you stand for me” he said, confused.
“of course I'm...”
“She hits her brother hard that he don't even talk to her now”Blake interrupted. And Alex shivered
“...I didn't stand for you, I just wanted her to go away.” and I looked at Blake and yelled “Shut up, Blake! I don't hurt my siblings! and they aren't like you that I have to yell at them!”
