»——————————— ⚝———————————« The Next Few Miserable Days Were Passed Quickly. Without Ballet, The Spirit Of Our Friendship Group Quickly Dropped. Alora Tried Her Best But Seeing Her Best Friends So Upset, She Gave Up Trying. "Hey Elsie, I Hear That You Are One Of The Witches In Macbeth?" Someone Asked. I Whirled Around To See Liv Winchester (Penny's Daughter). I Glared. "Yeah, You Got A Problem With That Livia?" I Demanded. She Lowered Her Gaze. "I'm Sorry. I Think It's Cool! But Call Me Liv," She Said Apologetically. I Smiled Warmly. "Yeah, That Was Me. Aren't I Just Glam?" I Asked. She Grinned. "I Like Your Attitude And You're Definitely The Best Youngest Actress," Liv Agreed In Approval. She Left To Join Her Gang, Ellie And Luna. I Smiled At Them All. I Don't Like Having Enemies. The Whole Point Of Being Famous Is To Have Fans, Not People Who Hate Me. I Guess I'm Friends With Both Groups But Of Course I Am Still Closer To The Grey Twins. Their Mother Saved My Mother, Ebony From Humiliation And A Bad Reputation Which Means Everything To Her. The Annoucement Bell Rang. We Headed To The Hall Worriedly. "Again?" Groaned Siara. I Punched Her Lightly On Her Shoulder. "C'mon, Cheer Up. It Might Be Good News This Time. You Know What They Say, Good Things Come After Bad,” I Told Her. Alora Agreed To Look For The Bright Side. Irene And Siara Sighed, Exchanging Amused Glances Before Reluctantly Admitting That We Were Right. Mrs Knight Walked On Stage Nervously With Red-Rimmed Eyes. "Girls, I Have Good News To Share," She Started. I Shook My Head Slightly. If She Looked Better, I Might've Been Convinced. But She Appeared As If She Had Just Finished Crying And Hurriedly Wiped Her Tears Away. Her Make-Up Was All Washed Away. My Friends Sat Still, Waiting Impatiently. "I've Noticed That The Academic Grades At Rookwood Have Dropped Dramatically," Mrs Knight Continued. "So I've Decided That We Will Cancel All Extracurricular Activities Such As The Arts And Physical Education. Classes Will Be Suspended Until Further Notice. Meanwhile, We Will Finalise Your Graded Exams And See How We Go," Mrs Knight Finished. Angry Murmurs Rippled Through The Crowd. "What?" I Stood Up. "Drama Is Everything. You Can't Cancel That," I Shouted, Complaining. One By One The Girls Stood Up And Demanded Their Hobbies To Be Brought Back Such As Hockey, Drama And Ballet. The Headmistress Dismissed Us And We Filed Out Of The Hall In Disapproval, Frustration And Confusion. Rookwood Is A Nightmare So Far. They Took Away The Thing That Mattered To Me Most. Drama And Acting Dramatically. »——————————— ⚝———————————«
