《What to do? High school! #Thewattys2018》Chapter 10: May

Date: 10/6/17
I look back at Jessica. She looks like she is very nervous. I wonder why she looks so nervous. Maybe because she is with new people she just met and has no idea who we are and/or where we are going.
"Are you okay" I ask looking at her. She looks like she is going to go into pure shock.
"Me" she asks
"Yeah" I say
"I'm fine" She says and then looks down at her phone. I turn around and look back at the road. I wonder how long it will take us to get there. March is driving and I am in the front seat. Usually, Alex would sit in the front, but since she is in Justin's car, March doesn't care who is sitting in the front. Megan has always sat in the back so she didn't mind sitting in the back still. Jessica is sitting behind March. Megan is sitting behind me. I wonder what Alex is doing in the car with Justin right now. I wonder if they are talking, or if they are just sitting there and she is on her phone. I wish Justin had asked March if he could ask Alex on a date because March and her are best friends. I mean, yeah it's not a requirement, but he still should have done it. We all know Alex's dad said Justin could date her if he wanted to, but March is more of a parent then Alex's real parents. They work all the time, are never home, and just leave her money. I mean yeah, money and a house to yourself is nice, but it gets boring after a while. I mean, I would know, my family used to be the same way. My parents used to make no time for me what-so-ever. But, then, I sat them down and had a talk with them about it. I didn't get the outcome I wanted, which was to have them take more days off, but we do go on a family vacation once a year and do two family weekends a year. I mean, it's not what I wanted, but I am thankful my parents heard me out. I wish Alex would do the same thing with her parents. I mean, I met them at her sweet 16 last March (Her birthday is March 15th), and they really do seem to care about her. I wonder why she doesn't want to spend more time with them though. Maybe because she is always spending time with us. Maybe it's because she is an only child. All of us can relate to her, we all have rich parents and are only children. Well, I don't know about Jessica and Jermey, but the rest of us can relate.

"Jessica" I say turning around and looking back at her. She has her head phones in and her eyes closed.
"Stop, she's sleeping" March says looking over at me for a second then back at the road.
"I wanted to ask her about herself. See what kind of person she is and if she is like us with the parents and the only child thing" I say
"I am an only child" Jessica says. I turn and see she actually has her left head phone out and could hear me the whole time. Oops.
"Tell us about you" I say
"Umm, well, like I just said, I am an only child, but I wasn't supposed to be. I had a twin brother, but he died before I was born. I wasn't expected to live to be 5, but here I am, 17. Umm, my parents don't have jobs because they got so much money from the hospital. What happened was, the doctor accidently used the wrong medication and killed him and almost me. So, they sued the hospital, and the doctor, and won. They got over 10 billion dollars. We move around a lot because we have 4 houses. I lived here from when I was born to when I was 4. Every 4 years we move. We stayed in Hawaii an extra year because my grandma died. She was old though, she had my mom at like 47 or something. But besides that, there is nothing really interesting about me" Jessica says and at this point I am almost crying. I feel so bad that she had to go through that. I mean, yeah, some people would see it as a good thing, but if I had a twin that died because someone accidently killed him, I would be mad too. But she doesn't seem mad. Just upset a little.

"I'm so sorry" the three of us say at the same time. See, she has parents that are probably always home.
"It's not your fault, you didn't do anything wrong" Jessica says
"Can you tell us anything else" March says "No offense, but I am trying to change the subject to something a little more happy"
"Why don't you guys tell me about you" Jessica says
"Who first" I ask
"Umm, May" She says
"I am May" I say
"Oh, I'm sorry" she says
"It's cool" I say "Well, I am 17 also, I am in 11th grade, I am on the cheerleading team, as well as March and Megan. I am dating James. I am 5'8" and my favorite color is yellow" I say
"Cool" she says "Megan" she asks
"I am also 17, my birthday is August 27th 2000, I am 5'7", I like Dan, and my favorite color is orange" Megan says
"Oh fun, what about you March" Jessica asks
"I am the oldest girl at 18, I am in 12th grade, I was born in 1999, and my favorite color is Pink" she says "Sorry, I would tell you more but I am driving" she say
"Cool" Jessica says You can tell she is a little socially awkward.
"When is your birthday" I ask
"November 1st, 1999" She says
"Oh, so less then a month away" Megan says
"Yeah" She says. I turn around to look at my phone that just buzzed and see a text from Alex:
Alex: Turn and look to your right
I turn and look to my right I see that there is a crashed car, Wait, that's Dan's car!

A city built on honour. A downfall built on lies. Divik is a cesspool. Left too long to its own devices, it is a city ruled by degenerate barons, unique in that on the surface, they’re part of the shiny ruling class. Enter the terrorists.

The innocent residents will be victims in the crossfire if the last good knight, Colonel Rabb, can’t clear them out of the way in time.
