Opening her pink-leather Hello Kitty schedule book, Natalia checked what class she had next. "Wow!", exclaimed the blonde-haired girl with a happy grin on her visage. "I have Calculus as well!"

Shifting her gaze from the schedule to her friend, the petite girl confirmed. "Of course! We are definitely going to Central Park after school!" 

Finishing packing all of her things inside her handbag, Natalia uttered with urgency. "Let's hurry to our lockers!" 

The petite girl looked at the clock once again. It was 11:00 a.m., which meant they were already late for the math class. "Hurry up!", said the blue-eyed girl while running out of the study room. "Hopefully our next teacher allows us to be a few minutes late!"

Helena's words felt like a sharp knife to Jason's heart. It was as if with every word the red-haired girl said the blade cut deeper and deeper into the young boy's heart.
 
It was true that the brown-haired boy had neglected their friendship by focusing more of his time and attention on playing basketball and spending time with his girlfriend; however, he had always wanted to rekindle his friendship with the green-eyed girl. 

It was just that they had become so different from each other that he did not know how to approach her anymore. And then there was the agreement the basketball boy had made with his parents. They would pay for Helena's tuition but in return, Jason had to stop being friends with the red-haired girl. The tall boy's parents did not approve of the "new" Helena and did not want for their son's image to get tarnished because of her. 

They had forbidden the boy from contacting the green-eyed girl before but it had not worked. They knew he would still find ways to interact with Helena, even if that meant for him to buy whatever drugs she was selling or talk to her skater friends from time to time. 

However, things were different at the moment. He was fully aware that if he did not keep his end of the bargain, the red-haired girl would immediately get kicked out of the school. To fulfill his agreement, Jason had stopped talking to Helena's skater friends and had tried to stop interacting with the green-eyed girl as much as he could. 

So why was he in the park with Helena now? Even though the brown-haired boy knew that he should not have gone to the skate park to meet Helena, he still did it. Something inside his heart had urged him to meet her. Maybe it was the fact that despite all the signs saying no, Jason truly believed that the real Lena, his Lena, was still alive deep down inside the skater girl. 

Seeing the sorrow and hopelessness inside the girl's emerald eyes, the brown-haired boy had to fight his strong desire to go and tightly wrap his arms around her as he had done it plenty of times before to console her when they were children. However, seeing her cry in front of him was more than he could bear. 

The tall boy dropped his backpack on the ground and ran towards his friend. "You are not alone, Lena!", said the brown-haired boy throwing his arms around the girl's frame and involving it in a warm hug. "I will never again leave you alone!", expressed the tall boy with utmost sincerity.

He had left her cry alone at the cemetery, and he still regretted doing so. So there was no way he was going to let cry alone now that she was in front of him.

Madison heard the phone ringing and ringing but nobody answered. The pink-haired girl ended the call and open Whatsapp on her cell phone. 

"Stupid Amelia! She had better have a really good excuse for not answering my call", said the green-eyed girl with indignation as she tapped and hold the microphone button. 

"Why are you not answering my phone call?!", shouted Madison. "Who do you think you are to make me wait?! You better call me back as soon as you hear this message!". She removed her finger from the microphone button, grabbed her bag and stormed out of the room.
