 Samantha approached me with a warmed smile on her face "did you hear?" 

I also smiled, as act of courtesy.

I don't want to hear it.

"Claine just got scouted from another University! Isn't that great?"

No. It was not. It will never be.

I still put a smile on my face, to indicate the fact that I don't have anything to respond her cause the topic is just stupid.

"Lauren?" She asked "Are you okay?"

Yeah as if me, not responding is not normal."Yeah I'm good, why'd you ask?"

" I don't know. It kinda feels like you're not okay. I guess..?"

Please get off my back, if anything I look rather fine. "I'm okay"

"Oh...okay. See you around...?" She slowly walked away, out of my sight.

What's with the question mark?

After that conversation I had with Samantha, Michaella appeared in front of me.

"So, did she talked about him again?" She asked with a visible smirk in her face

"Yeah. As if she was rubbing it in my face that he is better than I am"

"I think you misunderstood her intentions"

"Oh yeah? Ever since we started looking for universities she would go in front of my desk and just announce that" I did a bad impression of her voice " Claine Just got into this awesome university blah blah blah!"

"Well you gotta do admit it is pretty amazing. To be scouted by some well known universities in the area"

"It's not!"

"Okay...okay..  Chill"

"Sorry" I apologized " it's just that I feel like people are still comparing us"

"Laurns" she bent down a little and put her both hand on my shoulders "nobody compares you to him" she let go of my shoulders and stood properly "in fact, people  never really care to compare you guys"

"Really?"

"Yeah. They barely even knew you guys are related. Despite the fact that you guys are twins
