My name is lisa a 16 year old teenager. I'm from cuba and from a family of five. My mum, dad, two brothers and then me.
We've lived in cuba for 8years now and during my 4th year in cuba, i met a girl Carolyn. She was the most amazing soul I've ever met. She was tall, light skinned and brilliant, i loved her for all these and more.
I met Carolyn at a lesson centre in cuba where i was preparing to sit for the state examination. She was smiling with excitement and i couldn't help but wonder why she was smiling whereas everyone else was displeased with the hot weather that very day.
I walked up to her out of curiosity and asked "hey, why are you smiling with such excitement? did you pass an exam?"
She chuckled and then said "no, i just love watching the sun". I was so mad that i just walked away without even saying a word. She laughed and came after me saying "hey ,i don't know why a lot of people react this way when i answer this same question everytime" I'm like "the sun is wayyy too hot, there's no way i can smile while it's beating me this hard"
"Hahahaha no don't see it that way, i just love astrology " she said
"Oh okay that's nice " i answered now smiling a little.
On that very day, we exchanged names and numbers and became the best of friends from that day.
Few years later, we got into the same university and kept on doing everything together. People started calling us bestfriends.
With time, we started making friends and finally had a study group. We created a group chat for our study group and it was all nice and good and in the group, there were 9 of us.
Suddenly, jen and rit started getting close to carolyn and i was always just there watching while we all laughed and made fun of boys. Gradually, i and lyn started to drift apart while jen and rit got much closer to her. I was a jealous friend but i never let it show and I'm quite good at hiding ny feelings so i just let them all be and just go with whatever. Lyn started keeping secrets from me and sometimes would always leave the room to answer to jen or rit on the phone, which I found very unusual but still tried not to let it bother me.
All these off and on talking started one day they all wanted to get really high and i wasn't in support of it because of how the previous one turned out and they all went ahead to do it in jen's room so i won't have to discourage them. I was really sad that they just left like that without saying a word to me but i just let it slide as they're old enough to take care of themselves.
One day, i was just in the room reading After and lyn walks in and goes, "hey I'm no longer comfortable in this room our neighbor keeps heating on me and i don't like it. I'm going to live with rit"
I was soo heart broken that i just stared and told her to do whatever she likes and that I'll always be in touch. Just like that, i lost my favorite person in school to friends i introduced her to.
