Chapter 17: Audie’s Perspective You know when I said, "a therap-" I was going to say, "a therapist? How come? If you need anything, you can talk to me!" But, I think Isabel took that too far… But it’s not her fault. It’s mine. I should have NEVER said that to her! I’m a horrible friend, and I will never forget what I have done. I’m the reason that our friendship was ruined. Making her cry was the worst a friend could do. I have no idea what I was thinking. I just wanted to fit in, not make my 'used-to-be-friend' cry… But the reason she is now my 'used-to-be-friend' was all me. I ruined everything, I still can’t believe that I even AGREED to the bully! I should have never said that, and neither should have Jack! That was really wrong of me to do, and I should go talk to Isabel. I know she will not want to consider being my friend again after what I have done, but I hope she will AT LEAST forgive me. If not, I will never forgive myself for ETERNITY. ••• 'I have to fine Isabel', I thought. What I have said to her made me feel so guilty, and I have to apologize to her. "Isabel, Isabel!" I shouted. "What do you want to do with that freak?!" Jack said surprisingly. "None of your business! And she IS NOT A FREAK!!!" Jack walked away, looking at me like I pooped my pants. But I didn’t care, I HAD to fine Isabel. ••• I heard loud crying from the bathroom. Suddenly, I realized it was Isabel. I walked in, and it was even louder than from the out-side of the door. "Isabel, please come out." "Go away, Audie!" I said through tears. I can’t believe Audie would do this. I thought she was my friend, but turns out I was wrong… "Look, Isabel, I’m really sorry!" "Yeah, right." I said, annoyed. Audie walked out, I felt bad, but I just wanted to be alone. "I guess I won’t be forgiven…" Audie whispered.
