Secret Valentine by VeroMaria (the dot read aloud .TXT) 📕

she said laughing. When Suzuki laughed, it was as if she was a hyena she could not stop laughing.

“Wow” I said as I started to laugh “calm down Suzuki dang”

“I’m sorry,” she said with claming and still laughing a little.

When we were in the cafeteria we went in line for lunch.

“Man I am starving” Suzuki said as she held her stomach.

“Like always” I said with a sarcastic look.

“Man the prep rally was so boring! The whole time I just sat there doing nothing because he hasn’t even taught us how to play that stupid song yet!” she said angrily.

“What song the theme song?”

“Yes!”

“Oh… well I think the prep rally is boring I mean no one ever has any school spirit they just sit there and go ’wow’ all lazy”

“I know right!”

“Next!” the lunch person yelled “what you having?”

“Pizza” I said raising my voice a little.

“What to drink?” she yelled.

“Orange juice!” I yelled back.

After Suzuki and I got lunch, we sat down and ate.

Constantine kept staring at me.

“Hello!” Taylor said she plopped next to me on the lunch bench.

“HI” Suzuki and I said.

“So guess what?”

“What?” I said as I took a sip from my orange juice.

“I’m bringing cookies for Valentine’s Day!”
“COOKIES!” I yelled as I threw my head back.

“Ha Ha your crazy Vero!” Taylor said laughing.

“So anyways guys winter formal and girls choice who you taking!”

“Wait wait girl’s choice?” I said confused.

“Yeah that’s what they want to do instead of winter formal this year.”

“Ugh…”

“What?”

“Nothing.”

“Anyways I’m going to bring my home school boy” Taylor said smiling.

“I’m not going I don’t like dances” Suzuki said calmly.

“What!” me and Taylor yelled.

“Dances are like the most important part of high school!” I yelled.

“Yeah! What she said!” Taylor said as she pointed at me.

“Sorry but I don’t like dances”

“Ok whatever… you know what I don’t even think I’m going either” I said throwing away my paper tray.

“I thought you said that a dance was the most important thing about high school!” Suzuki said sarcastically.

“You know what shut up Mordici” I said yelling at Suzuki.

“Oh! Ok you know what Rigby!” Suzuki said pointing at me. It was weird that Suzuki and I called each other cartoon names like Mordici and Rigby but it was fun and hilarious.

“Ok guys both of you just shut up!” Taylor yelled, “Ok just tell me why you can’t or your lame excuse of not wanting to go.”

“Because first of all I don’t have a date and second of all I don’t have a dress.”

“Ok first of all you are coming with me and Abby and second of all you have three days to go shopping for a dress with me, Monica, and Abby.”

“Ok fine what ever…”

“I’m bored,” Taylor said as she put her head down. Then she flinged it back up and said, “I’m going to the library! Bye.”

Then she got up and a note fell from her backpack.

“Um… I think your note fell Tay Tay,” I said as I pointed at the note on the ground.

“Note?” she said curiously.

She picked it up. She then came back to the seat she was sitting in and sat right back down.

“What does it say?” Suzuki and I asked.

“It says I’m your valentine…” Taylor stopped and looked at me “Ha ha very funny Veronique stop playing with me cupid.”

“What? Why the heck what I do that for I’m straight girl I promise you that,” I said putting my hand up “anyways just keep reading I want to hear what it says!”

She then looked back down at the note and started to read again.

“I’m your valentine but you won’t know who I am till Valentines Day I love you bye” Taylor paused “What the Heck?”

“Oh well it looks like someone is competing against us secret cupids” I said as I got up out of my seat.


“Whatever” she said as she put the note in her pocket.

Then we walked to the library. While we walked to the library, I saw Constantine hanging out by himself and it made me felt bad. He was always hanging out by himself at lunch. Sometimes he is with his friends but not all the time I do not know why that kid was weird.

“You know what I just remembered guys!” I said as I stopped and smiled.

“What?” Suzuki and Taylor said as they turned and stopped.

“That I did well actually the correct word is do…” I said walking back at them.

“Yeah Yeah just tell us!” Taylor yelled.

“Ok ok geez…like I was saying I actually do know Constantine because of the first day of school man I can just remember it like if it was yesterday…” I said as I looked up at the sky.

(Flashback time!)

We were in forth period. My freshman seminar class. I remember when all the desks were facing each other like if we were going to began a war.
The teacher was doing attendance.

“Veronique?” she said curiously “did I say it right?”

“Yeah but you can just call me Vero” I said as I raised my hand up to my shoulder.

“Oh ok” she said looking back down at the attendance sheet.

Constantine was sitting behind me.

“Vero…Vero…Vero” Constantine said as he kept poking me in the back.
His friend started to laugh a little.
I started to get angry and irritated.
Then I turned around.

“What?” I yelled in a whisper voice.

“Hi” he said smiling.

“Hi” I said irritated and smiling in an irritating way. Then I turned back around.

He started to laugh quietly with his friend.

(Flashback over)

“Wow…” Suzuki said staring at me with a surprised look “that’s what you had to say that was stupid…you just wasted half of my reading time! Dude!”

“Oh yeah 5 minutes five dang precious minutes! Is the time you take to look for a dang book!”

“Ok you know what!”

“No I don’t know what,” I said smiling.

“Shut up you got that from me” she said as she pointed at me.

I laughed and Taylor did as well.

“So anyways let’s go in the library,” Taylor said as she opened the door for Suzuki and me.

“Thank you Taylor” I said as I walked into the library.

The library was big. With many books from A down to Z. Science Fiction, Fairytales, Information, and other book genres.

The bell rang.

“Awe…see that is why I got mad that made us stop to hear stupid story about how you met your boyfriend”

“He is not my boyfriend!”

“Aha ha ok whatever” she said raising her eyebrows and laughing.

In addition, we walked out of the library.
We said our goodbyes and went to class.
It was finally the end of the day well kind of. Six period was next. The last class of the day. English with Mr. Erna well ha let me tell you it’s not very fun. When you get on his bad side he’ll start throwing books and cussing which he always he always cuss. Even if he were not mad, the class would be annoying by always speaking and never shutting up. Man they get so talkative they even make the teacher start talking to himself.
Sometimes I feel like we do not even learn anything in that class.

“Veronique!” Brenda said running up to me.

“What?”

“Did you ask him?”

“Brenda!”

“Ok sorry anyways look!” then she showed me a picture of one of her drawings that has Constantine in it.

“Alright I um…got the warm-up on here on the bored for you guys,” Mr. Erna said as he walked to his desk with his head town. Sometimes it seemed like the T.A. and old people were the only people who could ever be his friends.

Now that I think about it, I do not really think anything interesting happens in this class. It is usually boring. Anyways after sixth period, I dashed out of class and met up with my friend Maria like always do after school.

“Hey Maria” I said as I caught up with Maria.

“Hey” she said in her depressing voice like always.

“Why so depressed?”

“I’m not depressed i'm tired,” she said wiping her eyes.

“Oh...” there was a pause “anyways so what are you going to do for Valentines Day?”

“I don’t know” she shrugged.

“Oh... I don’t know either,” I said as I sighed.

When we got to the parent pick up area, we said goodbye and to our separate transportation.
“Hey” I said to my dad as I threw my backpack in the back seat of the car.

“Hey so how was your day today?”

“Ugh…” I said as I threw my head back “annoying and boring like always” then I looked back at my dad.

“Really?”

“Yes” I said annoyed and throwing head back again. I felt like something was pulling me back.

Dad pulled the car in reverse and left the parking lot.

I turned on the radio and listened to my favorite station 99.1 K.G.G.I. the song “Proud” by Nicki Minaj ft. Drake came on. The song was a hit. Everyday I would hear one of my friends sing some of it or just say that they love the song.

“So how was your day dad?”

“Well the stocks were empty even the mannequins were empty” my dad said as he switched from one lane to the other.

My dad worked at the mall. In Macys, it is always busy on Valentine’s Day. They had nice clothes and perfumes. Everything was expensive! If you bought three shirts and a perfume, it was like buying a new smart phone! Because of how expensive it was. Not all Macy’s were like that though.

We got home finally. I walked in and in to my room. With out any hi’s or anything. I threw myself on the bed and threw my backpack on the floor. I sat there staring at the wall. I fell into my world were nothing was complicated and everything was awesome. My world has gray skies not to cold not to hot days. Sometimes it would rain. My subconscious people were always happy. Everyday was a good day. That was my world hey but doesn’t everybody have a world like that were there was never any problems in life. I feel asleep while daydreaming.
