The Inner Me

"How dare you?! How dare you tell the class we're friends?!!!" She screamed at me right after landing that slap on my face. "That's because youre my friend" i managed to curl up a smile on my red face. "Shut up!! We are not friends okay!!! Now you are going to tell everyone exactly what i just said!!"

"But i cant tell a lie. We are friends"

It wouldn't have cost me anything to just succumb to her wishes but i didnt, all because of the crush i had for her, and that cost me a whole lot. Linda's parents were major sponsors to the school and she managed to create a scandal against me and i got expelled. I spent most of my teenage like being homeschooled and disconnected from the world. I would have loved for my new life to last forever but it all had to stop when my parents told me i would have to be re-enrolled in my former school. Apparently, facing my fears was the best option according them. A story about closeted lesbian teen like me is one that needs to be heard.
