It seemed as if everything went quieter when Alex and Iris sat down, I could see we were all tensed and hopeful. Although it didn’t seem Iris had gotten over her anger of us how she never detto a word and just frowned at her tray unless Alex was saying something to her.
What irked me was that when Alex would talk to Iris, te could tell it was really important da the way they looked, but the geniuses had the conversations between the two in different languages. One minuto there speaking what I assume is Spanish, the successivo they switch to Italian, o French.
I would try to catch snippets I probably would understand, but they could speak so fast and fluent that I was lost. When the campana, bell rung we all stood up and threw our Cibo away, since Iris and I shared the successivo class I decided to follow the path she was walking.
Iris glanced at me. “What are te doing?”
I looked at her, confused. “Following you, we have the same class next, remember?”
Iris pursed her lips, looking straight ahead. “Your not going the right way then.”
“So your basically skipping.” I say, looking at her. “Why Iris?”
“I just want to be alone, not be in a classroom full of nosy boring people trying to get my work done when I could be getting a nice nap.”
When I don’t leave Iris looks at me. “Your missing class.”
“So are you,” I say, still following her.
Iris sighs. “Why can’t te at least let me have some peace, te know, alone.”
“The last thing we need is for te to be alone while were at school, something could happen.”
“Like at the park,” she shot back.
“Iris! Please! We didn’t know…or maybe we did, we just wanted answers, and we still do. That place, it was probably oozing with power!”
“We didn’t need power Abe! That’s what I’m trying to say, we didn’t need to go to some deserted place. We could’ve examined it in the car! At our beach! At home! It wouldn’t have made a difference. If something happened, something happened.”
“Iris-”
“You guys should’ve known it the moment we opened that book! I did! Of course we can’t outrun trouble, but we can defeat it. With that book, but te had to not listen and go to an obviously haunted/cursed place.”
“I’m sorry, okay! Look I care about you, a lot! And if I had known that might’ve happened, I’d personally lock te in a room to keep te far away from that! We all would! But were not wise, smart yes, but wise. Were just kids! We shouldn’t have this much pressure on our shoulders!”
Iris stared at me silently, not saying anything.
I sighed. “Iris, we Amore you. I Amore you. Were not going to let anything happen to you, and it would kill me if it did. I’m sorry.”
Iris looked down at her feet, “doesn’t mean it’s so easy to forget, I forgive te guys. But te hurt me, just give me some time, please.”
“Just stay with us, stop ignoring us. Give us a chance.”
Iris looked at me, “forgiving and forgetting, a thing I must get used to, but being angry at te guys is a whole different category.”
“So…”
“I forgive te guys, but it’s going to be hard to hang out and whatever, I just…don’t want anything to do with that stone, leave me out of it. te can tell me, if te want me to hide it in my house whatever, but group sessions with it, whether studying o blah, don’t count me in, I’ll stay home for that.”
I nod. “Of course, so…that means were okay?”
Iris rolled her eyes. “I just detto that I forgave te guys, smart one.”
I smiled slightly, shaking my head. “I meant te and me, are we okay?”
Iris looked up at me, surprised, her cheeks pinkening a bit. “Yeah, were totally okay.”
I smiled, “good.”
I held out my hand and she, after looking at it doubtfully with slightly red cheeks took it, and we walked away.
From the suffocating school.
From the ties.
From the popularity.
From the stress.

This is what te call the Earth
This is what people call the world
This is what we call life
We can't go on pretending giorno da day
That good things will always happen
Stormy days will come, it's not a miracle
But the storm will end soon, and all will be clear again
Heavy rain's crashing against my windowsill
I think, when will this ever stop?
The thunder's crashing against the trees outside
Today's not going to be a fine day, but it will end
I woke up this morning and guess what I saw
Bright sunny mornings with a clear future
No one's gonna stop me from believin
The rain stopped and the future's bright again
Good and bad create our lives
We can't pretend that everything's gonna always be alright
It's hard to think that something's gonna be wrong
But it's the truth, the whole truth.
We can't go on giorno da giorno pretending
Everything's gonna be alright
But we know that sunny days will come out
Soon o later.
