Nova: Nova said goodbye to Gordon, then got up, and walked back to her room. She pulled out her journal, which she was not going to call a diary, and began to write her next entry.
I hate it when Im right. I love it, but I also hate it in a way. Turns out Eli spilled the beans that he was dying. Id like to say to myself that I called it, but thats mean. I dont know what to think of it. I should have just kept my brain shut, because knowing that Elis gonna die is awful, and the fact that I suspected he was hiding something makes it even worse. I dont know, but sometimes I hate it when Im right.
Even worse, now Hopes got her cancer back. I didnt even know she had cancer, which is stupid considering she has gamma radiation in her system. Now everyones sprouting Hallmark messages saying that were going to endure, you know. Stuff like that. Jays pretty upset.
Gordon ended up cheating on his fiancé with Nancy. Turns out that they both kissed each other. I dont think Im that surprised. Mike beat Gordon up pretty bad though, and I feel awful for him. No one is talking to him anymore, plus his sisters in a coma. His fiancé is ticked, although who could blame her, and he cant pick up his hammer. Even though Im not all too into the friend thing, he seems like he could really use a friend.
Im not saying what he did is right, either, but I dont think Mike should have beaten him up like that. I think one punch was enough, you dont need to run around beating him to a pulp. Youre supposed to be trained in discipline in the army. Instead, Mike lost his temper because someone kissed his sister, then decided the best course of action was to beat up the guy who did it. Im not saying it should have gone undeserved, but Gordons probably already in enough trouble with his family. Forget about the fiancé, no one is speaking to him and I mean no one, like seriously you make one stupid mistake and everyone hates your guts forever. But what do you expect from everyone here.
They are all so perfect, right? They havent done anything dumb, right? I feel even worse for Nancy, because Im sure Gordons fiancé already hates the girl who kissed him, and Im pretty sure shes not the most diplomatic person around based on how he got socked in the nose. I dont think either of them should have kissed each other, but honestly, shunning them will make matters worse, I mean, its only a matter of time before one of them runs away. I dont doubt they wont either, because based on the way theyre treated, I wouldnt want to stay here either.
Im seriously waiting for the day that I make one stupid mistake so they can all shun me. I know its going to happen eventually. But I dont care anyway. Im sorry for both Gordon and Nancy, because Ive made a lot of mistakes too. I think I should try and be there for them, because they seem to need some friends right now. We all do. We could all be allies and have each others backs, at least until the YAs decide its time to start speaking to them again.
Nova closed the journal slowly, and got ready to go to the game.
OOC: And this is not meant to be offensive to anyone, I understand Mike thought that he did what he thought was right, but I decided to take it from Nova's perspective. She has done bad things in the past, so it's easier for her to understand mistakes.
