1. Trust - The Promise by Jade is Awesome (best motivational novels .TXT) 📖

here. The only reason my mum would have bought me here is if she had something to ask me. 'Well?' I said to mum. She's been acting really weird lately and right now shes looking at a window across the shop.
'Mum!' I said. She snapped back to reality.
'Oh erm.... any colour suits you darling.' She said quickly. I sighed and asked her what was wrong.
'Well darling, What you did in school was really bad.' My jaw dropped. How did she know about the juice incident? I never told her. Did the Riches complain about me to her? They grassed me up? This is their revenge?. I would have laughed if mum wasn't here.
She looked at me, just like Mr Calvin looked at me when I was late.
'Mrs Child heard Cam talking on the phone with Josh.' She said, reading my mind. She was really angry by me. Her eyes was mad. Why did she care so much about them?
'I can't believe you dropped sticky juice on someone's head.' She said while closing the door. We were at home. I was about to go upstairs when she told me to listen to her. 'Look darling, I know that they threw water balloons at you, but this is wrong in so many ways.' It's like kindergarden. Someone hit me and when I do something back, mum shouts at me.
'Mum, you always told me to stand up when I'm treated wrong. Why are you not saying that now?.'
'Sorry, when I say stand up when treated wrong, I don't mean seek revenge, I just mean-'
'Mean what Mum? And why are you mad at me, I've been in fights before, why does this make a difference?'
'Because.....' Mum sighed like she was tired of this. 'Because they are in a bigger position than us and-'
'You think, just because they are rich, we can't treat them the same?'
'No! Because I don't want you to get hurt like I did!' Mum shouted. She looked away like she said something that she shouldn't have. I went quiet. How can I be so stupid? Of course she is going to be mad about me, I was trying so hard to make things better that I never knew, I was making things worser. 'Sorry, darling, I didn't mean to-'
'Its fine, I'm sorry too. I'm just in a bad mood. I shouldn't have shouted at you.' I said. I was going to cry. I needed to get to my room as fast as I can.
Mum put her arms out for a hug. I hugged her, nearly squeezing her to death.
'Okay, go to your room and do your homework okay?'
I smiled and nodded. I went upstairs. I climbed inside the duvet and cried slowly so my mum won't here. I shouldn't be causing my mum pain and here I am, doing something that could give me pain.

I was in the entrance of my school. I don't know why but I felt really lazy and tired today. I should have been alert because the Riches can attack any minute but I really didn't give a biccuit. I came early today because I didn't want to have an awkward silent with my mum about what happened last night. I just wanted to get away from home and come to school. I missed breakfast because of it. To think about it, I haven't even ate properly at all. I saw Cam. She looked tired.
She looked like she was crying all night. Her clothes were not ironed. He hair was sticking out from every place. What the hell happened to her?
I ran up to her. 'Cam whats wrong?' I said. She looked at me, her eyes were swollen and red.
'Ruby, you wouldn't guess what happened.' Her voice was shaking. It looked like she was going to cry any minute now.
'What? Cam, what happened?' I said, I really wanted to know what happened. She never gets really sad.
'Ruby, my- my d-dad lost his j-job.' Cam said. Good that no one was here, because they would have came up to her and she would have been
on the floor crying. Her dad lost his job. Why? How can he lose his job. Mr Child is the most decent man I have ever met. He can't be fired.
'Rick tol-told hi-his dad to- to fire my dad because of what happened.' She started crying. People looked but I put my hand up that meant 'I'll handle this.' I can't believe it. Cam's dad got fired because of what I did. I never knew they would sink so low. Why the hell did they do this. I'm so mad.
Josh came. He was about to say something when I interrupted.
'Josh, look after Cam, I need to do something.'
'But-'
'Please Josh.' He nodded and I went looking for them. How can they do this to my friend. I thought they had a problem with me.
I looked in the classrooms, homeroom and canteen but they were'nt there. I finally saw some boys who might know where they are.
I asked a boy who was laughing with his friends.
'Hey, do you guys know where the Riches are?'
They all laughed. 'You know, you aren't the only girl who asked us that.'
I got the boys collar. 'Oi, tell me now or you will regret it.'
'Okay Okay.' He said getting freaked out. I let go of his collar. 'They have their own room at the basement. Its near the staff-'
I ran as fast as I can. I am not going to let them win. This is my fault.
I went down the stairs. There was a bodyguard there.
'I want to meet Rick.' I said impatiently.
He looked at me. 'They're busy.'
'I have to meet him, its urgent.'
'Look, they don't like being disturbed.' He was getting on my nerves.
'Please, you don't understand. Hes expecting me here.'
He went out of the door. I waited for 2 minutes. I was going to barge in but he came.
'You can-.' I quickly moved past him.
There he was. Rick was playing cards with Matt.
'Hey!' He said cheerfully.
I ran to him and I was just about to scratch him when 2 new bodyguards picked me up from my arm.
'Whoa! you really thought you could hurt me.' Rick started laughing and Matt joined in.
'Let me go!' I tried pulling off but these guard were like brick on my skin.
'Why are you here?' Rick said. For once, I saw him with a serious face. 'Are you going to throw some juice, because theres only coke.' He said pointing at a coke vending machine. He smiled.
'Why?' I said. The guard was hurting my arm but I didn't care. I came here for one thing and one thing only.
'Why what?' He said. He sat down and played cards with Matt like I wasn't even there.
'Why did you punish my friend? Why did you hurt her when you were supposed to hurt me?' I couldn't help it. A tear went down my cheek. I was my fault that Cam's dad was fired. I did this. I made this happen. And whatever happens, I need to get Mr Child's job back.
'What kind of question is that? You did something that a few people have guts to do. You shamed our dignity. And that equals revenge.' He said not looking at me. 'And we tried punishing you but all you did was hurt us back, so we thought , why not do something to her lovable friends?' He looked at me smiling. Another tear came out. What have I done?
'Please, I- I'll do anything but please don't punish my friend. Please.' I said. I would do anything for this. I didn't want to see Cam hurt and specially if its my fault.
'Anything?' He laughed. What was he thinking? Then when I was about to ask, someone walked in. I couldn't look back because the stupid guards were holding me tight.
'Whats going on?' That was Conor. For some reason, I felt better when he came eventhough I should have felt worser.
Rick smiled and said 'Con, bro glad you came.
Conor saw me and his face filled with concern. He looked at me like he was scared. Then I saw it in his eyes. He was worried about me.
Conor? The same Conor who made me mad, The same Conor who threw water balloons on me and the same Conor who laughed at me? He was here and his eyes showed that he was scared about me. He cared about me.
'Rick, what the hell are you doing?' Conor said looking back and forth at me and the bodyguards.
Rick looked offended. 'Man, she dropped juice on you, I'm just seeking revenge.'
'Get off her.' Conor said to the bodyguards. He nearly shouted it.
They let go and went out the room. I touched my arms. They were bruised. It hurt.
'Ruby Ruby Ruby, you want your stupid friend to be happy again?' He said smiling. Matt laughed and whispered something to Rick. Rick smiled.
Conor just froze and looked at my eyes. I thought he was going to kiss me but he just stood there. Staring at me. I nodded eagarly.
'Ruby, what you need to do is..' He laughed before continuing. 'You need to beg Conor for forgiveness.' I nodded slowly. Just ask for forgiveness. That'sfine.
'Ok I-'
'On your knees and your hands should be like your really begging.' This made me nearly fall on the floor.
'What?, are you crazy?' I said. He must be joking. How can I do this?
'Do I look like I'm joking?' Matt and Rick start laughing. I looked at Conor. He was still frozen. He looked like he didn't want to be here.
I felt really dizzy now. I don't know why. My eyes kept on closing. I felt tired. I really wanted to lay on the comfy floor and sleep. But I had to do this. For Cam. I looked around. The whole room was spinning around. And for some reason there was 3 Conors. What was happening? I felt sleepy and sleepy. And I took a step closer going near Conor. I couldn't see Conor's face properly. It was blurred. Then I closed my eyes. Feeling strangeness inside me. I couldn't feel my legs or anything. I went down and down and down. Until all I can see was black.

Chapter 6

Everything hurt. My legs mostly. I moved my fingers. They felt numb. Where was I? Only one way to find out. I opened my eyes slowly because they were weirdly hurt. I felt weak. I looked around. White. The whole room was white. Was I in heaven? Then I saw a clock. It was half 6. I was here for more than 4 hours? How? Then I saw my mother. She was looking at me. Trying to say something.
'Mum?' I managed to say. 'Yes darling.' I can see mum clearly now. She had no make up on and was looking paler. She had concern written on her face. 'Water.' I said. Mum quickly grabbed water from the side table and helped me put my head up so I could drink it. I could see where I was. I was in hospital. How can this happen? Then I remembered everything. I went to the Riches room and they told me to beg on my knees to Conor so that Cam's dad
