Chapter 21. Actions speak louder than words
=//Alice P.O.V.//=
I'm waiting at the bus stop with my bag on my back. There is a woman there. I don't know how old she is. She looks mid thirtys with dirty blond hair. She looks at me. "Are you ok? You seem upset" I look at her. She has a kind looking face. I try to keep my anger...But then she smiled and I couldn't hold it anymore. My lips start to tremble. "Miss?" She asks with concern. "I...He...He cheated on me" I say. I choke back on a sob and dammit it was painful. She smiles. "If whoever it was cheated on you then that means that you will find someone else way better" It was simple and a little clichè I'm not gonna lie but...It was nice to hear that someone cares...even though if I didn't even speak two actual human words.
Maybe it's true. Maybe he just wasn't for me. But...is there someone. I get a call on my phone...Its him I step around behind the bus stop to get a bit of privacy then I go in for the kill...I press answere.
"What do you want!" I shout at him...well so much for privacy. "You saw the news didn't you" he says. "Yeah. Also what were you doing at the airport instead of going to the school?!" I shout question at him.
There is a moment of silence. "Alice..." He begins but I have had enough.
I just hang up on him as the bus pulls over in the bus stop. The woman there gets on and I follow her. "Miss you need to pay" says the bus driver. I flash him evil eyes. As I inch closer to him. "What was that?" I say giving him a second chance to change what he just said. He starts to shiver. "Y-you need to pa-"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!" I should at him. "Thank you for your time" he says as I take my seat. The bus drives away. I am sitting next to a guy in a hood that is covering his face. He seems to be asleep. The bus shakes his head hits the window and he becomes wide awake and takes off his hood.
"Alice?" The guy says. It's Tye. "Tye? The hell are you doing here?" I ask him. "Well I saw the news" he says. "Yeah we all did" I say.
"and Simon texted me and-" I put a hand on his throat. "Don't mention his name" I say. See Tye is used to this so with him it's like nothing happened. "Well just listen" he says. I give up and he gets out his phone. "He sent this" he hands me his phone.
The text reads
Dear Alice. I know this is hard to believe but I wasn't the one having sex with her at the airport. What happened was...the woman she...she took me. We were driving to the school then she hijacked the car. I was asleep in the back and she drove to the airport. She then forced me to have sex with her against my will. I'm sorry if this doesn't change your mind XOXO ~Simon
I am taken by suprise when I finish that. I yelled at him before he could finish and I hanged up on him ruining the change of us ever being back together. I burry my head in my hands
..."what have I done?"
