FOUR: LOST

I did my best for the following days to avoid Enzo and his circle, I don't want to be in any connections with him but they just kept following me everywhere and the bullying just got more worst than ever.

I've never been in detention but because of them, I was sent to the detention two times already. I managed to handle them but I don't think I'll make it this time.

"Where was it!" I whispered to myself angrily.

I kept on searching for the bracelet my parents gave me when they were still alive, I've searched it from my locker and even went to the places I've been just to see it but I think I have lost it, I tried searching my bag for the nth time but after many minutes, still unfound.

"Where did I put it?!" I hissed, I badly want to throw my bag already and cry, I can't lose it, that bracelet is just too important than anything.

I'd rather lose my phone but not and never that bracelet. That's too sentimental for me.

"Maybe you have left it in your home, in bed? Before going to campus—"

"No! I put it in here!" I already shouted at Aria while searching for the bracelet, everyone in the cafeteria are already looking at us.

"Calm down Charlie—"

"Aria! Tell me how can I calm down if—"

"Why are you shouting babe? You looked mad" My eyes followed where the voice came from then I saw Enzo walking close with a grin in his face. My blood immediately boiled in anger thinking that he and his friends might the ones who took it and was using it to my as a prank.

"Did you and your friends took my bracelet?" I asked almost shouting.

He looked surprised at the raise of my voice but he again showed me a grin. "You don't have to shout babe, I have no idea what you're talking about"

"Just give it back Enzo! If you or one of your friends took my bracelet for another pull of a prank stop this and give it back to me!" I shouted.

"Stop shouting, what's—"

I immediately cut him off when I saw my bracelet on his wrist, I stepped forward and held his hand to have a close view of my bracelet.

"This! What do you call this?!" I shouted, everyone was now looking at us.

He looked at me irritated because probably he was feeling humiliated in front of everyone by me shouting in his face and him without doing anything to stop me.

He madly held my other arm and pulled me out of the cafeteria harshly, Aria tried to follow but some of his friends stopped her while Dave and Hayes followed.

"Let go!" I screamed but he just held me tighter, he only stopped when we reached outside where there is less people. He finally let go of my hand and I immediately massaged my wrist in pain. "I don't want to argue with you just give me back my—"

"What?! This, you want this back!" He shouted back and raised his hand up showing me my bracelet on his wrist.

"Give it back!" I'm on the verge of crying but I don't want to show any signs of weakness.

I stepped closer and tried to reach for it but he just stepped back and raised his hand more. I groaned in annoyance and irritation.

"You want it back? Then try me" He smirked devilishly and held the bracelet before pulling it off harshly causing it to break.

My eyes widened when I saw it broken.

"Now, you want it still huh?" He smirked and throw it through the tall grass, I didn't even saw where it fell.

I felt that pang on my chest, it's heavy... And it's hurting too much.

My sight started to blur when tears filled my eyes, but I immediately wiped it off, memories of myself with my family back then came flashing to my mind as if it only happened yesterday. But my parents died five years ago already.

I came back to my senses when Enzo tried to pull me by the wrist again, but in anger I pulled back my arm and slapped him hard. He was annoyed and was about to hurt me when Dave and Hayes came to stop him.

"What the hell?!" Enzo shouted looking at me. "How dare you—"

"How dare you throw away the bracelet my parents gave me?!" I shouted back.

He snorted. "Then ask another from them baby girl"

"Why don't you do it yourself since you're the one who threw it away?! Ask my parents and follow them 6ft under the ground!" I shouted and walked to the tall grass to search.

I thought I'll find it easy, but the area was wide enough to keep me searching for hours. He threw it far away that I didn't even saw where it landed, I have to search the ground and even the grasses if ever it landed in the strands of a grass.

But I've been searching for hours and I think I've walked too away, the sky is getting darker, I wanted to keep searching but I have to go back or else I'll have to stay and sleep here.

But as I was walking back I felt like I was only walking farther, I tried to take a peek but the grasses was taller than me making it harder for me to see the way back.

"Oh shoot, how am I gonna go back?" I whispered to myself.

I wanted to take another step but I'm afraid it'll just take me away more.

"Uhm, is somebody nearby? Anyone?" I tried to raise my voice trying if someone would hear me but no one answered instead the echo of my voice.

I started to get nervous and my body was already trembling, I didn't have anything even my phone was left at the cafeteria with Aria. I was hesitant and still I tried to walk but the sky was getting dimmer but I was still stuck with the tall grasses. Then slowly, I started to feel drops of rain, it was just sprinkles at first until it started pouring badly with thunder and in just a minute, I was soaked and all wet with rain.
