Nour woke up after hearing the bell ring announcing the end of the school day. It was hard trying to adjust to her new life style. 9th grade was the grade that determined the kind of education they'll be receiving in highschool. It was nerve recking, from 8am to 6pm they go to school and after that they have two more hours of private tuition classes. Even at home they have to revise everything on a daily basis while doing homework.

She packed her supplies and headed to her tuition classes. Eyes on the phone she didn't notice the presence of someone behind her. Two hands gripped her shoulders and jerked her around. Nour stared at the tall figure and started laughing hysterically. Cyrine let go of the girl and said:" why did you leave without me? Didn't I tell you last time that I entered the same center as you?"

"oh I'm so sorry, it totally slipped out of my mind. You know with all the exams coming up."

"it's fine no need to panic!"

they continued walking without talking. Nour was focused on her phone and the person she was texting while the other girl kept staring at the messages. A sense of anger and sadness overtook cyrine's body. Why did she feel like that? She had no right to feel that way when they aren't dating.

"UHM, hello? We're here."

Oh, she lifted her eyes from the ground and climbed up the stairs. Nour knocked on the door and was let in by a pretty tall girl with olive skin and dark black curls. They both greeted each other warmly yet avoiding any physical touch. It was normal, fatma was known for not being the touchy type. She finally put down her phone and focused on the girl Infront of her.cyrine felt more and more jealous. she didn't pay attention to what they said and instead headed towards their room.she sat at her usual spot near the bord due to her bad eyesight. Laughter could still be heard. She threw her bag onto the table next to her and sinked into the chair.

At home she entered the shower and sat in the tub filled with water. cyrine covered her face with both her hands and started crying.

"what does she have that I don't?! Why can't she choose me over her, am I not good enough?"

She pushed herself into the water and stayed silent untill she felt nauseous.

Laying on the bed, she kept looking at the message she sent two hours ago to Noor. Sent...... If she wanted to ignore her she should've at least hid the active mark. the girl put the phone away and went to sleep.
