Chapter 504
Chapter 0504 “It’s either her or me,” she hissed, staring at me.
I saw her eyes darkening and I knew she was being fueled by fury; I just wasn’t sure where it was coming from all of a sudden. Rachel wasn’t an angry person, and it was alarming that she was acting this way.
“That’s not fair,” I said, staring at her in disbelief. “We just voted; Sarah stays, Rachel.” “Then I guess you made your choice,” she muttered. “I’m out of here.” She grabbed her things and stormed toward the door, making me stand up quickly.
“Rachel!” I called after her; but she didn’t stop to turn around, she slammed the door shut behind her, leaving us all in silence.
“That was weird,” Becca breathed; she was the first to speak after the long silence.
I'looked at her and saw the worry in her eyes; we exchanged identical and knowing looks. She now knew that I was right. I sighed and sat back down, facing everyone else.
“Where were we?” I asked, trying to appear normal. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
«The fall formal,” Matt surprised me by saying. ‘You wanted to plan a formal and asked for volunteers.” “Qh, right,” I said, running my fingers through my hair. “Anyone want to help set up for a fall formal? We'll need a venue, catering, a theme with decorations, etc.” “Pm really good at planning stuff like that,” Sarah said with a shrug.
“I can get a venue with a ballroom and get the catering. I might need some help though with the decorating part.” I was surprised that she was quick to volunteer.
“put me to work,” Brody said, giving her a bright smile and making her cheeks grow pink.
“I can help too,” Skylar shrugged. “I'm a great decorator.” “Me too,” Kay said, giving Skylar a nervous smile. “I'll help too.” “Okay great,” I said, happily. “That makes me happy. Thanks for the volunteering. Remember, feel free to use this room to collaborate whenever you want. You each have keys, just members to lock up when you're done.” They all nodded in agreement.
“What about your other idea?” Becca asked eagerly.
I'had a bunch of ideas, but I knew the one that Becca was most excited about was the tutoring center.
I flipped to the next page of my notebook.
«Becca and I discussed the possibility of opening a tutoring center here on campus,” I announced. “It’s surprising to me that we don’t actually have a center for that. students should have a safe environment to help other students. We could recruit the best students to be our tutors.” «Thats an awesome idea,” Kay said. “I have some classmates who are great at specific subjects. They’d make great tutors.” “And I know football players who are struggling to stay on the team because their grades aren’t great,” Matt said, looking around the table. “They could use a tutor.” “I second that,” Brody agreed.
“Of course, we are going to need permission for this because it might be something they have to either build or make room for,” I explained.
“Leave that to me,” Sarah said, leaning back in her seat. “My dad owns this school and I'm his only daughter. I can get him to approve it if he thinks it’ll benefit the school.” “Thank you, Sarah,” I said, and I honestly meant that. She was really proving herself today.
She didn’t return my smile, but she nodded and wrote something down in her personal notebook.
I “Do you think I could be a tutor?” Luis asked, his eyes wide with
excitement. “I’m getting all as in history and I love the subject.” «It’s true; he helps me and others all the time,” Becca vouched for him.
«Of course,” I said to him. “Thank you, Luis.” He looked very pleased.
“I was thinking we should also do more fundraisers,” I said to them.
“I know we have plenty of money for a couple of different projects, but the money will run out eventually. I think we should hold a fundraiser every month. It can be different things. Food, drinks, knick-knacks.”
