Chapter Chapter-4

I decided while my mind voice is saying that I'm going to regret this later ( that's 100 percent right).

" Go ahead, we don't have much time left. Everyone has their chances," Henry said.

" For what...every girl has a chance to kiss you...that's never going to happen, dude," Another guy said
and laughed.

" Shut up, I'm not desperate to kiss a girl," They continued arguing. While I'm going crazy. I have a
terrible dilemma. If I didn't do it, I will miss my change forever. If I did it, I will regret it. It won't end up
well. I'm a girl will zero luck. Everything ends up bad for me. So, what's the matter in worrying?

" I will do it," I said as I moved towards Xander. I can see he didn't expect that I would choose it. His
eyes widened and my hands touched his cold cheeks. I pressed my lips to his lips without worrying
about the consequences. I should be worrying that he would move away. But he didn't.

He hesitated at first and then kissed me back. I can't believe this is my first kiss. And I defiently can't
believe my life is good for a second. I don't want to end the kiss. I want to savour this moment. I wanted
more from Xander. I never desired anything like this before.

But then, something bad happened. That broke my heart. Shattered me to pieces. I know something
wrong will happen. That's my destiny.

" What the hell is happening here" I heard a loud voice. A girl's voice. A familiar one.

I stepped back and turned to see Veronica. She's standing in the front of the class with a shocking
face. What is this reaction supposed to mean? She should be happy like Sofia feels.

" Veronica, I can explain," Xander pleaded. I can't fully understand this situation. But I can sense a
betrayal. I feel like my best friend stabbed me with a knife.



" There's nothing to explain, Xander. Whatever happening between us...it's over." She shouted and left
the class.

" How could you...you are her best friend and how could you do this, Madison. You ruined everything."
Xander angrily said and left for Veronica.

" What the fuck is going on here? Why Xander is running behind Veronica?" Sofia asked Henry and
wrapped her arms around me. I want to know what's happening between Veronica and Xander. She
never betrays me. Am I wrong? I told her I love him and now she...

" This is not the right place to talk. Come outside." Henry told us and motioned his hand telling us that
the others can continue the game. We walked few steps away from class and I already have tears in
my eyes.

" You both are Veronica's friend. How could you not know this? Xander proposed to her and she
accepted. They have been dating for a month. All I asked you is to kiss a single boy. Not a boy who
already has a girlfriend."

" We have no idea. She didn't even mention it and I haven't seen them together in school." Sofia said.
She couldn't even take this truth Veronica hides from us. How could she do it, when I told her that I love
Xander.

" Xander shares everything about his life. That's how I know. Well, I thought she would do the same to
you. But what's the worst part is, Xander never kissed a girl. No matter how many girls have a crush on
him, he never wanted to take advantage of it and make out with them. Now, he liked Veronica but still,
he wasn't even ready to kiss her. Now, all of a sudden you kissed him. I don't know how will Veronica
take this and I know Xander will get mad if he couldn't make it up with her. She's his first girlfriend."

After Henry spoke, there's a pin drop silence. I couldn't be happy that I'm Xander's first kiss and I
couldn't take that my best friend betrayed me. What explanation could she possibly have?



" I'm still wondering why Xander didn't push you back and say that he has a girlfriend," Henry muttered
to himself.

" Maybe he was too shocked to respond and have a hidden desire to know how a kiss feels like," Sofia
replied.

" Anyways, that's not your business. I gotta go find Xander." Henry left.

" Why did she did this? Didn't I tell her that I love him? Atleast, she could have told us that she loves
him. I would have sacrificed for her even if it's difficult. But hiding everything behind us. What did I do to
deserve this?" I sobbed, burying my face on Sofia's neck.

Why people have to be unfaithful to me? I already lost my mother and father's love and bears my
sister's death. Why does my life have to be like this?

" I'm so sorry, Madison. I didn't see this coming. We gotta know the truth. I will help you. She's going to
regret this. She's not our friend anymore. She's not going to get away with this. I'm with you." Sofia
assured me and there's a lot of anger in her voice while all I got is sadness. I'm so sick of this life.

All I can think about is Veronica. That one amazing moment ruined the rest of the day. Probably the
rest of the days in school. I don't know why Xander kissed me back. I wish I know why. Maybe, if I tell
him that I never know that Veronica's his girlfriend, he would forgive me. Wouldn't he? He also kissed
me without pushing me away. I will try to get rid of my feelings for him. I wish I could atleast be his
friend again instead of being an enemy.

Later, at night, Sofia called me. " Hey," I spoke without life in my voice.

" I'm gonna put Veronica in the call. She hasn't contacted us after the incident. We got all reasons to be
angry while she stomped off. If I didn't know why she did it, I might kill her and hid her body in her



locker in school." Sofia shouted from the top of her lungs.

" Calm down, Sofia. You don't need to kill anyone for me."

" I would do that, Madison. Trust me. If I said, I will. All it takes is a 'yes' from you. I won't hesitate for a
minute. Then our story will run off the track and I might end up in jail. But that's okay. I'm not rich.
Atleast, I will get free food in juvie."

That last part of her words made me laugh for a minute.

" I'm not going to say yes, Sofia. I would rather buy you food than let you get it from juvie."

" That's good too. So, I'm going to call her. This has to end today." Sofia said and puts the call on hold.
My heart beats faster. All the worried turned to anger.

Then the call connected...

" Hello Sofia, I know why you called me. This is not the right time. Just hung up already." When she
said that, something boiled inside me. Extreme Temper. I was holding it for a very long time.

" If you hung up the call, I swear I will hang you on a tree until I know there's no breathe left in you," I
yelled.
