Lilly and her best friend Jessi were inseparable — until Aisha walked into their lives. At first, Aisha seemed charming and harmless, but soon her true nature showed. She began manipulating everyone around her, cutting Lilly out of her own friendships and painting her as desperate, dramatic, and an attention-seeker.

With lies, interruptions, and whispers, Aisha turned Jessi, Sara, Jackie, Ashlin, and Emily against Lilly, isolating her while keeping her own crown of power intact. Lilly felt terrified and exhausted, forced to ride in Aisha’s car every day while watching her best friend drift further away.
What did Lilly do?Could she ever clear her name out? or would she be a pawn in Aisha's game?

But before she could answer, Aisha appeared behind her, smirking.


"Why? So you can feed her more lies?" she said.


Jessi looked between us, then shook her head. "I… I have to go."


I watched her walk away, my chest aching.


Even now, I have to ride in Aisha's car to school every morning. I sit there in silence while she chats and laughs like nothing ever happened.


I miss Jessi. I miss who I used to be when I was with her.


And I hate that Aisha — with her pretty smile and cruel games — took all of that away.
