The school bell rang signalling the end of classes on that day. Hailey got to work quickly and fixed her things, for which her brother had noticed.

"Why so fast, sis? I don't remember you having an important schedule today," he said.

"I just remembered something, Harry. And I need to go soon if I want to get on time. So if you please, can you take my bag home? Don't expect me for dinner, by the way. I may go home late," Hailey replied, shoving her packed bag to his brother and taking out a black, hooded jacket. "Just inform the others. I've got to go."

Hailey slipped on the jacket and proceeded to go to her destination.

Harmony was feeling elated. She just won the school's beauty pageant! Everyone around her was cheering so much, but none more that her family. She smiled happily.

After the crown, the trophy and the sash was given to her, she proceeded to walk around the stage, waving at everyone.

While looking around, she spotted someone at the back of the auditorium. That person smiled, muttered something before leaving.

If it was any other person, she would have creeped out.

But was not just any other person.

I was heading out when I heard someone exclaim my name. I didn't turn around. Maybe it was just another person. My name is pretty famous. Besides, no one knows me in this place.

"Hailey!"

I turned around, and saw the source of the voice. My eyes widened and I turned back around and quickened my pace.

"Hailey, please!"

I felt a hand grab mine and I was forced to a stop. I faced the person holding my hand.

"Why?" I asked.

"Thank you," she said.

"For what? I didn't do anything."

"It was you. I know it was you. Don't even deny it."

I knew I won when I saw the conflict in her eyes.

"Yes it was me, but why do you care?" she said.

I sighed. "I never really stopped caring, Hailey. I never did. I tried to find you, but I can't. I can't find you."

I held her hand and looked at her in the eye."Please come back to me, Hailey," I pleaded.

She looked away. "I-I can't. I can't bear just to look at them, 'cause all I see is the hate in their eyes as they exiled me."

"I'm sorry it has to be this way, Harmony." With that she let go of my hand and started to walk away.

"I'm sorry too, sister."
