Im Into You…Not The Badge You Have To Wear  Chapter 8

As both of them sat there, it felt like without having to express how they were both feeling they already connected through one another’s body language. Alice gossiped away but couldn’t understand why she felt so happy seeing her friend, sat right there before her eyes…it made the pain of her life discentegrate before her. In her own mind she knew that telling her best friend about the downfalls of love especially; as her relationship was just waiting to sink. She withdrew her self from putting a dampener on Helena’s happiness, after all this was the first time she seen her best friend smile in a long time.

Helena’s face was glowing as the sunlight beamed through The Planet’s window. Her beauty was a sight for sore eyes, her bluey green eyes glistened and her beauty was radiant for everybody to see. At that moment Alice knew she envied Helena’s life. Loneliness washed over her, she didn’t want to speak about Tasha her mind was fried from all the over analyzing of their relationship.

She just wanted to feel happy again, but nothing lately seemed to be working no matter how hard she tried. Helena had been in her own little bubble for the past week or so she’d been out of prison that she hadn’t noticed Alice’s heartache. Although she knew deep down that Alice had not been herself she just put it down to pms.

As they sat there the atmosphere was intense, although Alice smiled Helena knew that it had been half heartedly, and alarm bells started to ring.

“Alice, are you okay sweetheart? You don’t look like yourself today”.

Helena leaned over the table to grab ahold of Alice’s hand, her hand felt fragile and like England on a winter’s day. She was shocked at the temperature and a shocked her body thoroughly at the chill.

Alice sat there numbly ignoring her friend question. She didn’t mean to be rude but she just didn’t know how she should respond. They both sat there whilst staring at one another waiting for the other to break the silence, after a few more moments of unspoken silence Alice spoke.
