Hailey's POV

"Hailey, how are you?" Rebecca asks me as I'm walking to the cafeteria.

I ignore her but she keeps up with me.

"Look, I'm sorry for what I did to you." She says to me, making me roll my eyes.

"You are just sorry because Jaxon and his friends won't leave you alone. They have turned you in to the school joke. So much for  climbing that social ladder." I say, leaving her at the door.

"You won't always have him around. One day, he will turn his back on you and you'll know what it feels like to be on his receiving end." She shouts out but I keep walking.

"Hailey Ferguson please report to the office." The intercom calls out.

All the kids in the cafeteria look at me as if I was some naughty kid about to get the scolding of my life but that wasn't me.

I turned to walk out of the cafeteria, getting grumpy that I would miss lunch and I wanted that froyo so bad today.

Walking in to the office, the receptionist  smiles at me before walking up to me to give me a side hug as she walks me to Mrs. Gellar's office.

"Hailey, come on in." Mrs. Gellar says to me and I do, ready to get out of this woman's tight embrace.

I sit down on one of the chairs facing the headmistress.

"Hailey, I just received a call from your stepmother. I'm so sorry to be the one to tell you this but your father passed away last night." She says and I chuckle.
