Aftermath

“I am so done with this group and this crap!” Screams Allie as she walks out. Victoria and Faith are left looking at each other with eyes full of tears.

When they got back to there dorm Faith and Victoria had stopped crying. They had been with Mia’s parents in the hospital for hours and they didn’t have any tears left. Faith and Victoria sat down next to each other, trying to find words to say to each other.

“I shouldn’t have said that to Allie”, said Victoria sniffling.
“You were just letting it out”, mumbled Faith.
“We may have lost another friend”, said Victoria.

Victoria puts her head on Faith’s shoulder and Faith puts her head on Victoria’s. They spent the rest of the night thinking, talking, and crying. Neither one of them slept. When morning comes Faith hears a knock on the door. She whipes her eyes and answers it. It is Ethan holding three coffees.

“Hey, I heard what happened. May I come in?”
