Unfriendly Competition
“NEWS ABOUT Julia’s abrupt departure spread all over campus. No one would stop talking about it. The only people who weren’t, were Heather, Alison, Brit, and me. It was too soon—too raw. We’d all been betrayed by someone we’d considered a friend. I wasn’t in a place to deal with it yet.
During the morning’s riding lesson, Mr. Conner brought up Julia’s absence. He talked about how he regretted that she felt it necessary to create the blog and do such harm to other people. He said that he hoped sh...e sought help, so she could return to the student she had been and would one day fulfill her potential as an excellent rider. All of us had been quiet through Mr. Conner’s speech and the lesson that followed.
I used it to distract myself from thinking about Julia. More than anything, I needed to focus on Huntington.
I moved through my classes in a daze, not hearing half of what the teachers said. None of them talked about Julia, but her absence felt ever present. I kept expecting to see her in the hallway or in one of the classrooms.MoreLess
