Author's Note
I know this is off topic but I just finished the 1st season of Fresh off the boat and it was hilarious and some of the things that happened in that show happened in my life hehe. I can relate :) Yeah, yeah I'm just blabbing what I did today so without further ado here's CH.12
P.S The picture in the thumbnail is Queenie Smith.

Ella's POV
The ambient in the school changed as the day past, students being more imbecile than they were before.
Example? Okay, I'll give you one, 2 students ran around the school wearing nothing but their underwear on their head while shouting 'Hakuna Matata'. The cause, the stubborn aggressive president has been absent since Monday.
I should be glad but why do I feel so alone?
I've been asking her friend what she been up to, but she either knows what's going on with her.
'' I called her numerous times but she won't pick up her phone.'' that's what she said. She seems irritated but I don't care, I wanna know what happened to that blue-eyed dummy. She's been gone so long that the vice president and I can't stand each other to the point where we can set this school on fire. She hates my guts, I too hate her guts.
I looked around the cafeteria searching if she came today but she's not here. I slumped my head on the table and sighed. What happened to her?
Minutes later Jock came with pizza in his hands, munching it like a starved animal.
'' Why the long face, el? '' he asked as he sits next to me. I looked at him with a bored face. ''Never mind'' he continues devouring his pizza. Man, this guy can eat 4 boxes of pizza, no doubt.
'' The president is not here today either,'' I lifted myself up from the table and wait for his reaction but he just shrugs.
'' Aren't you happy? You own this school again like you did before she came in.'' I looked away and thought about what he said. My brows connected as I think of multiple reasons why I should be happy right now but nothing is valid to be one.
'' Of course, I'm happy'' I sipped my smoothie as I looked to the front and watch students move around.
What's wrong with me?! I can't take this anymore.
Furious because of this mixed emotions, I furiously walked out of the cafeteria and headed to the faculty office. I see Mrs. Spencer chewing her peanut butter sandwich while talking to another teacher.
'' Excuse me Mrs.Spencer, but can I talk to you for a second?'' She looked at me before nodding then excused herself from the other teacher. She wears a blue dress that stops to her knees with brown boots. For a 40 years old woman she didn't lose her curves over the years.
Can I have a body like hers when I turned 40 too?
'' Okay, Ms. Taylor what's wrong?''
''Umm... Can I have Queenie's address? ''
'' And why do you want it?'' She asked a bit skeptical.
'' She's been absent for a while and she's the school president and her works are pilling up. I need to give her some of her work too since we have a problem with Jason's gym locker.'' I reason. She stares at me before giving me a thumb's up. She goes back inside, after a few seconds she handed me a paper.
A phone number and an address. I looked at her as if asking if its Queenie's info. She nodded then went back to the person she was chatting with. I looked at the paper.
The number has changed.

This afternoon I was thinking about visiting her not because I was worried about her, no. I need to give her the work. Plus that KFC girl is getting under my skin, I wanna strangle her.
I revived the engine of my car and start driving. It took me half an hour before I arrived at her place. I looked around and saw her neighbors slicing the dog's flesh, its head hanging on branches of a tree.
Ew neighborhood she got here.
I thought to myself before walking to the front door of a run-down house.
Is this where she lives?
There's a mold up the door. I rang the doorbell and waited but no one answered, so I rang it again. Minutes later the door's knob turned a little, the door opened revealing a skinny teen girl.
I thought she lives here?
'' What do you want Ella?'' asked the girl, her voice was raspy, not the sexy one but the one that sounds like she has been smoking for a past few days that made her throat dry. I was startled at first because she didn't look like the Queenie I saw before. She has changed, dark circles placed around her eyes, I could see her bones because of how skinny she was.
'' What happened to you Quee-'' I was cut off by the door as it was slammed shut almost breaking my nose.
What happened to her?
To be continued.
