Chapter Thirteen

The next day in class. When the teacher is not in. At the noise of the class.

The perfect of them all. Lukas Scottville. He remains silent. He thinks of himself. Who is he anymore? He just does not know. He turns to look at her. The ugliest of them all. And when she sees him.

She looks away from him.

"Always looking at her." Allison Parker says. She has been staring. He feels the shame. He turns his head. "No one does that. Except you."

"Just don't speak to her. I will make you disappear!" She tells him. And there is power in her voice. Some burning anger.

"Why? Why does everyone hate her?" He asks. The perfect of them all.

"Some things are better kept secret. I warn you! Don't go near her!"
