One and Only – chapter 4
ONE AND ONLY
CHAPTER 4
Bette Porter was sitting in her usual seat in the library. She was reading a book on the American Civil war. Beside her was a black notebook open on a blank page and a single black pen that was hooked onto the top spiral of the notebook so she didn’t lose the pen. This was her usual lunchtime – she would eat her wholemeal chicken sandwich with two pieces of cucumber on and drink her bottle of diet coke and she would then head to the library where she spent the rest of the dinner hour.
“Hey there “
Bette looked up and smiled at her friend Shane. Shane was in the same classes as her and she was as close as Bette came to having a good friend. Shane had been expelled from a number of schools but seemed to have found a niche in this one. She was easy to like and knew just about everything that went on because people just told her things.
“Hey Shane – how’s the cold ?”
“I got bored watching TV and eating chocolate so here I am “
“Its good to see you “
“Its good to see you – how are things with you ?”
Bette sighed and shook her head “Why can people not leave me alone ?”
Shane frowned “What’s happened ? Are you getting hassle because if you are just give me the names and they will stop if they know what’s good for them “
“Its nobody at school – though I did get called to the headmistresses office last week”
“Why ?” Shane had never known anyone with less of a capacity for mischief as Bette Porter
Bette looked round the library – there were a few pupils around but none could hear their conversation. Even so Bette dropped her voice to a whisper
“My parents” she said after a few seconds
“What about them ?”
“They think I am – well – odd”
Bette was odd – everyone in the school knew she was odd but apart from the occasional incident no one really made a big deal about her being odd.
“Honey – you are odd – you think you are odd”
