Secret Cupid: The Truth

Dear Secret Cupid,

If you wouldn’t mind not telling anyone that I am writing to you that would be great. You see I don't want people to know for certain reasons. Anyway, I wanted to ask a girl I like to prom. The only thing is I don’t know how to ask her. I don’t know if she even wants to go with me. I don’t know if you can help, but people say that you can so...can you?

Sincerely,

Zack  

        “Zack!” I screamed. “He his writing to me! I mean he is writing to Secret Cupid! Wait he wants to ask a girl to prom. I knew it! He's probably going to ask Rachel or some other girl. He could want to ask me right? No probably not. I knew it was too good to be true. He is just a friend.” I said sadly.

“Hey Abby!” Emma said.

“Hey Emma.” I said shoving the letter under my sheets.

“Why do you sound so sad?” She asked.

“Oh, it's nothing.” I said trying to sound happy.

“I am your friend. I know when you're lying.” She said back.

“It’s just about a guy.” I said.

“You mean Zack. Yeah, I pay attention.” She said noticing my surprised face.

“Yeah, well he wants to ask someone else to prom. I was stupid to think he would like me.” I said to Emma.

“How do you know that? Wait, how do you know he wants to ask someone to prom?” Emma asked.

“I just know.” I said.

“You're lying Abby. You know you have had a secret in you for a while. I have tried to ignore it for a while but I can’t. Abby you can tell me.” Emma pleaded.

“I can’t.” I said.

“Then I am leaving. You can find me when you're ready to talk.” Emma said leaving my room.

“Emma wait! I do have a secret. You can say that some of my name has the word secret in it.” I said. “The secret is...I am Secret Cupid!” I blurted out.

“What! Wait you're...really?” She asked freaking out.

“Yep.” I said back.

“That's how you know that Zack wants to ask someone to prom. He wrote to Secret Cupid.” Emma said,

“You got it.” I said trying to sound positive.

“I’m sorry.” Emma said.

“It’s fine.” I said with a smile.

“So, you're telling me that I have been writing to my best friend!” Emma said.

“Yep!” I said smiling.
