Bloody friendship(16)

Chapter 16 　

  “It’s probably just a rat, don’t bother it.” Katlin said in her what-ever-voice. 　 小荷作文网 www.zww.cn

  Then I saw a dark shadow moving towards me, I nearly screamed but that would expose me. Instead, I swallowed hard, holding a pencil sharpener in my left hand. But things didn’t turn out so bad. It was Andy! I was just about to… he whispered hush. 　 小 荷 作文网 www.zww.cn

  “What are you doing here Andy?” I whispered in a really low volume. “I thought you went home!” 　

  “Doing the same thing as you are.” And I think he meant ‘spying’, “I’m not such a coward as you define me!” 　

  I rolled my eyes sarcastically. Yeah, right. “But anyway, let’s get out of here! I’m sick of seeing them.” 　

  We sneaked back to the lobby on tip-toe.

  “What’s the deal here?” He asked, drinking from his glass. 　

  “Remember what I told you in the café this afternoon?” He nodded. “About Katlin is after Todd, and I guess she succeeded.” I continued. 　

  “I know, I saw them.” He replied calmly, setting down his glass really carefully, making sure no juice spilled. “But it’s their business anyway. We have no right to poke our noses in this matter.” 　

  “How can you say that? Helen is my best friend and I don’t want her to be hurt! Maybe this isn’t your business but it’s certainly mine! And maybe you don’t care a damn about her but I do.” I nearly blew up. I knew Andy wasn’t a selfish person but what has gotten into his these days? 　

  “But there’s nothing we could do! And besides, Todd and Katlin get together. Maybe that’s for the best! A guy like him is not worth caring about. If Helen sees this, she might not even care! And what does this whole thing have to do with us?” 　

  Something is seriously wrong. I can feel it! 　

  “We can get revenge on them! Helen will care, she’s sensitive! And it affects us because we are human, with caring hearts for other people. Unless… unless you are no human. You’re a cold blooded-animal like same bats in a cave, you have no heart, no spirit, no soul, only an empty body to support you!” I’ve never been this angry with Andy. 　

  My words offended him a lot. Especially the bat-in-cave part when a trace of sadness crossed his face. 　

  “You’ve taken me all wrong.” He said weakly, “We’ve got more important things to be worried about.” 　

  Really? We do?
