“I’m sorry Uncle,”
“It’s Mr. Byron!” He is one stern man.
“Pardon me, Mr. Byron, I brought your daughter to the park this morning,”
“You need a solid reason for that, young man!”
“She needed space. There’s a friendship problem in school. I was trying to help her, so I accompanied her to the park,” I lied. He listened to me intensely.
“And when we were talking in the park, someone banged us,” I added.
“He was so big. Bigger than you dad,” Geneva added.
“Yes, he is. Then, your daughter fell to the ground and blacked out,” I finished my lie.
“And why are you here? Slept on my couch?” He asked me.“He brought me home, exhausted and slept,” Geneva annoyed by her father.
“You, get up to your room,” He scolded Geneva. Geneva was pissed off and stomped to her room. Her mother was looking at Geneva furiously and followed her to the room.
“I’m sorry for all the trouble, I should have stopped her,” I apologized.
“Yeah, you should. Now, can you please leave the house?”
What the heck. I saved her daughter life for God’s sake. He did not even say thank you at all. What a rude old man! I walked slowly to the door and heard Geneva crying upstairs. “Leave!” Geneva’s father pushed me out of the house. As he closed the front door, I heard him yelling. I was not sure what was it about, all I could hear was Geneva’s name mentioned continually.
I grabbed my phone and called Cameo.
“Bro, where are you? I was so worried!”
“Hello?! Where’s your manners?” I reminded him.
“My bad, good evening Mr. Cruz, Mr. Cruz is speaking here. I was wondering where on heaven did you went. Mind explains it to me?” He changed his accent.
“Can you fetch me now?”
“You haven’t answered my question! Why don’t you follow Dylan and his father just now?”
“Something happened!”
“That is not a good reason to skip school,”
“I’ll explain it later at home, can you please get here EH-ASS-EH-PEE!”
“English please? What ass, what pee?!” He is total a dumb.
“As soon as possible!” I hung up the phone.
I went to Geneva’s mailbox and looked for her address. I typed it in my phone and sent to my brother. He needs the address to get here, if not, I have to wait for 7 days for him to come.

To live our life, we eat death everyday till death become our flesh and bones.
It is inappropriate for us to disobey when death calls
Death had served us
Thus, we have to pay death and
There’s only one thing death wants from us –our lives
Izzy got down from the stage. The crowd applauded out loud. Mr. Abraham and Mrs. Darbus were inside the room. They gave him a standing ovation. Izzy is a good actor, he can act really well on the stage but when he’s off the stage, he is worse than a 5-year-old boy. I stood up and praised him, “Bravo!” He turned and gave a cold expression to me. He looked away and sat next to Roxanne.
What’s wrong with him? I did nothing to him! Is this because I’m a juvenile and it’s a shame to hang out with me? Right after bell rang, Izzy tried to run away from me. But I was faster than him. I stopped him at the door. Roxanne stopped as well. When everyone got out, I talked to him.
“Dude, come on!”
“Sorry, I can’t talk to you anymore!”
“Why? Because I’m a juvenile?”
“A part of it,”
“How about Dylan then?”
“I was told to keep myself away from him too,”
“Who? Your mother?”
“Yeap, you and him are in the list,”
“What list? The-handsome-hunks-in-the-school list?”
“The-human-Izzy-cannot-hang-out-with list!”
“Well, I’m not sure about you, but I will not do this to my friends,”
“I’m sorry, Harold. Choice had been made,”
He pushed my hands and walked away.
“Harold, I’m sorry about that,”
“What? You want to ignore me too?”
“No, I’m not! I will be here when you need me like I promised you, but not now; I got to calm him down,” I remembered she promised me that in class.
“Thank you, Roxy Pixie,”
“Got to go,” She went away.
I went to my locker. I got math class after recess. I grabbed my math book and shut the locker. I turned to my left and saw Geneva was doing the same thing. I fake a cough and she turned to me. She gave me no smile. She shut the locker and took a small step to me. “Hel…” I was about to greet her but she turned her back and walked away. Now what? I got fed up and turned around as well.
I paced to the canteen quickly. I wanted to talk to Dylan about Izzy’s weird behavior. When I reached the canteen, Ryan was talking to Dylan on our gang’s table. I walked to them hurriedly. I sat next to Dylan and faced Ryan.
“Hey what’s up? Bro…” Ryan Greeted me.
“You are not mad at me?” I was a little bit shocked.
“How can I mad at somebody who cares about me?”
“That’s so gay, Ryan!” Dylan teased him.
“Guys, did Izzy talked to any of you,” I interrupted them.
“He’s sort of ignoring me,” Dylan answered.
“Sort of is not a good word, buddy. He IS ignoring us!” I pressed the ‘IS’.
“Well, why?” Ryan asked.
“He told me that his mom made a the-human-Izzy-cannot-hang-out-with list. He has to obey it,”
“Well, that is so cool, can I have the-human-Dylan-had-sex-with list?” Ryan teased Dylan again.
“It would take ages to list it down,” I added. We both laughed.
“Just give him time to accept us back!” Dylan stopped us.
Silence took over the atmosphere for a minute.
“So, why didn’t you tell us that you, ya know, with Geneva yesterday?” Dylan broke the silence..
“What? I what, what?”
“That you slept with her yesterday,”
“Gee, who told you that, it’s a scam!”
“I knew it! You will never do such thing with such a wonderful woman!” Ryan teased me.
“Enough with the teasing Ryan. Who told you guys?”
“Aaron!”
I turned my face to him. He was sitting with a bunch of losers at the other corner. I stood up and walked to him. “Not again…” I heard Ryan murmured. I went to Aaron’s table and knocked it stalwartly.
“What on earth were you thinking?”
“Hi, skunk!” All his friends around the table laughed at me.
“Why you told them that I slept with Geneva?” I yelled. Geneva looked at me. Only then, I realized, she was sitting with Aaron.
“Well, that’s the truth!”
“What kind of boyfriend are you?”
“The one who did not sleep with people’s girlfriend!” He laughed and so did his friends.
“What are you?” Geneva stood up and slapped him.
“Now, you’re with him, girl?” Aaron held Geneva’s shoulder.
Now I got it. She ignored me because she thought I spread the news that I slept with her yesterday.
“Well, we are sort of having a relationship behind you, Godzilla!” She confessed. She used the nickname I gave Aaron.
“Means, it IS the truth that you slept with him! What a whore!”
“Ewww!” She slapped him again and walked to me. She grabbed my hand and marched away from the table.
“I’ll tell you father about this Baby G!” Aaron raised his voice.
“God,” She felt disgusted by Aaron’s words.
“Zip it boy!” She shouted at him.
We were now in the center of the canteen. Everyone was looking at us. “Great, honey, let me do something,” I whispered to her.
I climbed the table and shouted.
“GENEVA AND I HAD NOTHING IN BETWEEN! PLEASE FORGET WHAT AARON TOLD YOU GUYS!”
She looked at me and smiled. She got to me and climbed the table.
“HAROLD AND I ARE TOGETHER. PLEASE FORGET WHAT HE TOLD YOU JUST NOW!” she shouted.
Everyone in the room cheered and laughed. “KISS! KISS! KISS!” The students went wild. We ignored them and got down from the table. “BOOOOO!!” The crowd were disappointed. I put my arm on her shoulder for the first time and went out from the canteen. I walked with her proudly like what Dylan used to do with Christine.
As I was walking out from the canteen, I saw familiar faces smiled at me. It was Dylan, the dumper who is now a dumpee, Ryan, the gentleman who blames himself for the train wreck, Roxanne, the Rapunzel who is still waiting for the prince charming to save her and Izzy, the prince charming who is chasing after nobody but his own shadow.
But one guy in that room… glared at us. Aaron was certainly not happy with this. He was planning something evil, I can see through his black eyes.
Now, we had reached the ending. Who gets the happily-ever-after? No one does. S.O.S! The 7teens need help! 
p/s: This is the end for the Harold's Story but not the end of S.O.S7teen.
