Unlucky Me
Lory and Tory, the perfect duo. Best friends and close to the extent where they considered each other blood sisters. But their friendship cost me my  freedom and life. There was no reason to deceive me, neither did they have to string me along but it wasn't the deceit that hurt me but the fact that I thought I  actually mattered.

"Wow…I really love the shade of lipstick you're wearing" 

Those were the words Lory said to me and instantly, we became friends. I was so overjoyed that I got one of the most popular girls at school to befriend me. After meeting Lory, she introduced me to Tory and we all became great friends, or so I thought. It was really amazing how they both had similar names and were best friends. I guess that should have been the sign that I didn't belong from the onset.

It never dawned on me that I was only being used for what I could offer and nothing else.

"Katty, get me my dress,"  Tori shouted out loud.

It was always Katty this, Katty that. I'm really exhausted that's for sure and it feels as if I should just change my name from Katty. I find it so hard losing the friendship because I am nothing and losing the friendship will only make me more invisible to the entire school and that's not something I want since I'm really attracted to Praise.

Who's Praise? Well, Praise is like the hottest boy ever and has been my crush since middle school. It's really sad that I can't act on my feelings because Lory likes him as well but that does not help in killing my feelings for him.

I was on my way to Tori's locker when I accidentally bumped into Praise.

"Watch your steps beautiful" 

He said, sending a dazzling smile my way. I knew I was supposed to apologize for bumping into him so rudely but at that moment, I think I lost my ability to speak. The eruptions of butterflies everywhere in my stomach. My heart raced so fast that I was scared he might actually get the chance to hear it go wild. My palms were sweaty and my eyes filled with admiration. I'll probably be looking like a lost puppy right now but I didn't care because all that mattered to me right there was the little interaction I was having with Praise. It was barely an interaction but I could settle for that.

"Are you alright?" He asked me with a confused smile on his face.

"Ye-yea, I- I'm fine"

I stammered out so embarrassingly. It was such a shame that he was in a hurry and I didn't have enough time to actually communicate with this fine specimen but I guess it's for the better since I wouldn't want to embarrass myself more.

"Okay then, watch where you're going next time, muffin"

I still couldn't believe that Praise would give me a nickname. It's just so sunreal and I just felt like I was in heaven. I turned again only for me to bump into another person. I really have to stop bumping into people. I looked up, about to apologize when I saw a scary looking Lory staring daggers at me. If looks could kill, I'll probably be six feets underneath right now with the look she was throwing my way.

"I hope it's not too hard for you to register in your thick skull that he's mine?" 

Lory spat out and so much venom was dripping down her words. I was actually scared because I had never seen her this way before since years of being friends with her. Sure, she can be rude and not a really good person but she had never spoken to me with so much hatred like she did just now. The bell suddenly rang indicating that classes had started and before I could utter a word,she dashed out.

It would surely hurt staying away from Praise but I have no choice since.i don't want to get on Lory's bad side. I went to class with so many thoughts in my head and before I knew it, everything was like a blur and the day ended and I walked towards the parking lot to start my journey home. I saw Praise waving his hands widely at me and smiling. I knew I was supposed to avoid him but I just couldn't help it.

"Hey muffin, I was wondering if you were free tomorrow? I'd like for us to go on a date"

It was as if I was struck by thunder. I instantly froze up due to the surprise I had from Praise asking me out. A loud shout of happiness came out of me and before I knew it, I started nodding my head furiously. I skipped home to prepare for my date. It was a Saturday so it'll be absolutely perfect.

I woke up the next day only to see my room door was locked and I couldn't go out after preparing for my date. I cried out with a lot of frustration because I knew it was Lory's handwork. She had access to  my house and knew my parents weren't at home half of the time. She also knows I couldn't jump down the window since my room was three storey high. 

This friendship has really cost me my life and freedom to the extent where I can't be with the one I really like. I hate being naive and not being able to express myself. It hurts but it's the cycle of life in high school.

I can just imagine the feeling, being unable to speak in front of the guy you've been crushing on.

Lory was just a bitter person. The kind that makes themselves feel better about being a person by stomping on everyone else around.
I hope life got better for Katty after high school and she learnt not to let the likes of Lory push her around.

How sad for Katty. It's sad that Lory could act so bitterly towards her friend. It's proof that friends could hurt you when you least expect. I hope she got over it and loge became better for her afterwards.  Nice one.💕✨

I think Katty should be more bold when interacting with her so-called friend Lory. She has to speak her mind, otherwise she will lose Praise 
Good story about friendship, thanks for sharing

I feel so bad for Katty! I can relate to her in a way, but not to the point where I was locked in my room by a toxic friend! 

Great story, I loved the characters!

Here we find Katty trapped between two 'friends' who are really more like close enemies. Although there were signs before Praise, which may have indicated to her that this was not a healthy friendship, it seems this situation was the final straw. We can only hope that Katty finds happiness and confidence in time. Thank you for sharing your story with us, and for your engagement with other members of the community.
