Olivia walked dejectedly down the streets with tears down on her face.
"Olivia!".trevor shouted."what happened to you?.why are you in this way?".
"Jade...jade".was all she could say as more tears came down from her eyes."jade..jade".
"What happened to jade?". asked trevor in a worried tone."what's going on?.why are you calling jade's name and where is she?".asked trevor looking around searching for jade.
"I got a call from her school...". olivia trailed off in breakdown."...and I was told that she...".she couldn't bring herself to finish her words as she continues to cry.
"What happened?". asked trevor."speak to me!".
"Jade is dead".
"What?!!".
Olivia woke up drenched in sweat breathing loudly.she had dreamed of that day again.
For a long time,she had been sleeping peacefully but ever since her last talk with lily,she found herself dreaming of that day.
Trevor who was sleeping beside her also woke up as he heard her screaming.he sat up then turned to look at her."Are you okay?".he asked.
"No".olivia honestly said."and I don't think I will be okay either".
"Olivia..". trevor starts to speak but was stopped by olivia shaking her head.
"I know what you are going to say but I don't want to hear it right now". said olivia."it's been two years and I still can't get over jade's death and now I keep reliving those scenes from the past.i am scared for lily because I know how close those two were and compared to my pain,am sure lily's worse but she's not showing it neither is she opening up to me".
"Perhaps you are overthinking things". trevor said.
"No am not".olivia argued."I am sure of what am saying trevor.i know what am saying.lily is hiding something from me, something that I should know".
"If you are so sure then I trust you". trevor said."so what do you want to do?".
"I don't know for now but I will think of something".
"Well". trevor sighs."whatever it is you might come up with,do the thinking tomorrow but for now I think you need to sleep".
Olivia glanced at the time watch on the desk beside the bed which showed 3:00 am and sighs."you are right but I don't know if am able to sleep because I don't want to dream of jade again.it's too painful".
"It's alright". said trevor trying to calm his partner down."everything will be okay".
Trevor stood up from the bed to get her water."drink this and go back to sleep".
"What about you?".she asks as she took the cup of water from him.
"Will sleep after you".trevor said to olivia who nods and drank the water.she hands the cup back to him and laid back on the bed and closed her eyes falling asleep almost immediately.
Seeing that she was asleep,trevor dropped the cup on the desk and quietly made his way to the other side of the bed to sleep.
*************
"So what's your story?".elise asked.she was seated across jade while lily was sitting besides jade.
"Well...."
A young girl dressed in the school uniform as lily walked down the hallways of the school.
"Jade".a voice calls out which made the girl stopped walking.she turned back to see her friend walking towards her."Good morning".
"You seem happy today haper.what's the good news?".jade commented.
"Is that an appropriate manner to greet your best friend?".asked haper as she crossed her arms pouting."not very nice you know".
Jade lips curled up at her friend's attitude but she tried not to slow that she was amused."am sorry haper".
"Better". said haper."so what is it you were supposed to say?".
"Good morning and how did your night go?".jade said.
"See".haper said completely pleased."that wasn't too hard to say.did you have to make me annoyed?".
"Sorry".
"I forgive you". said haper."now let's get to class".
"Wait a minute".elise said interupting jade."sorry but who's haper?".
"She was my best friend". said jade.
"Was?".elise couldn't help but notice the 'was' in jade's statement.
"Yeah".jade nods."she..died".
"I am so sorry".elise said.
"It's okay". said jade trying to put on a smile."it happened a lot time ago".
"Jade".lily called."was she the one you told me about?.the one who sacrificed her life?".
"Yeah".at this moment a tear fell off jade's face."if not for her,I would be the one dead".
Elise felt like the story to come was painful and she didn't want jade to be reminded of the pain."maybe..you shouldn't say anything ".
"Why is that?".asked jade.
"I don't want you reliving the pains of the past you tried hard to forget". said elise.
"But it will help your investigation though".jade said.
"You don't need to worry about that". said elise."will figure something out".
Jade stared at elise moved from the concern she was shown.she was so grateful but she needs to speak."I appreciate your concern but I already made my mind because there's something you really need to know".she then adds."I need to tell you no matter how much it hurts me".
Jade's words made elise wonder what it is she was going to say.
