A CELEBRITY WANTS YOUR PHONE NUMBER
'Who’s she talking with? They can’t talk about hurting my girlfriend. I can’t tell her about this.' Caleb took his phone and screenshots it. He was about to jump out of the window. Suddenly, he heard footsteps. He hid under the bed and the door slowly opened, revealing Becca’s face.
“I will be there, Tiffany,” she talked from inside her bedroom. Caleb put his phone in silent and stayed silent. Soon she walked near the window and closed it.
At last, without a doubt, she left her room." Phew," he got up from the bed and escaped to the backside of the house through the window. Someone touched his shoulder all of a sudden. A shiver ran down his spine when he turned to see that’s Caroline.
“What the hell are you thinking? I told you to wait there.” he scolded. He usually told scold her older sister, especially not Charlotte, whose middle name is angry.
“It’s been half an hour. I thought you got caught. So, everyone came here.” She answered, leading him through a shortcut. “Wait, a minute. I saw something.” he told her about the chats and all Caroline said was “Don’t tell this to Ruby. She will be worried.” They reached the others.
After some hours Ruby walked away to her home alone. She heard their conversation. ‘I am so weak. I always need protection. I don’t like this life. I can’t even able to talk bravely in front of anyone. Why am I being like this? I will do anything to change myself. But can I do that?’ she thought to herself with a single tear in her eyes. She heard some wolfs howling. There are some wolves in this town and no one is safe at night. She walked as fast as she can and entered her home.
Caroline walked to the caffeine in the bright morning, seeing all the bright kids and students. Clary is looking at a magazine and leaving all other work untouched while others are working sincerely. “Hey, back to reality. Keep the magazine down and do the work,” Care ordered.
“Nah, come and see this.” Clary grabbed her arms and showed the front cover. It’s Daniel’s next movie announcement. His bright gorgeous face is everywhere on the magazine pages. Care blinked at it without a reply.
“Aren’t you excited about this?” Clary raised an eyebrow.
“Iam... Iam not,” she stammered and kept the magazine on the backside so she won’t see his face. Who can hate an actor like him? Well, she is trying to do that from the moment she slapped him. “There’s still more to know,” Clary started again. “Oh please, can’t you stop?”
“About Becca,” Clary said at the same time. "What about her?" Care got interested. “She is going with Daniel to New York for his movie. It’s so romantic, right?” Clary lost in her dreamland. “Nope. She is the worst girlfriend. You don’t know anything about her.”
“I agree, Care” a voice came from behind. “See for yourself. Bill understands me better.” Care beamed at him. He returned the smile while Clary ignored both of them.
Care saw the next order of Ice cream." who’s ordering a cup of ice cream in the morning." She laughed and walked out to the table. “Oh, my goodness,” she stuck in her place in a shock. “It’s Daniel. I can’t go. I can’t go” she turned to give that to anyone, but all are busy.
“I know you will come,”
“Caroline,” Daniel spoke. “Okay. Here’s your order and I am sorry for slapping you.” She apologized without seeing him. “Fine. but I won’t accept you're sorry if you didn’t sit here with me now,” he demanded her, hoping she will see him. She just nodded and sat with her head down. He started eating it for a minute.
Care noticed some security guards around them and all the people’s eyes on her and him. She hates attention. “I got to go. I have work.” she rushed to get up. He grabbed her hands at the moment. Shiver danced down her spine when he touched her. "Sit down," he ordered furiously this time.
“I don’t know one thing. Nobody disrespected me, not even once, and when you did, I don’t feel embarrassed or angry. It’s weird.”
“I asked sorry and I don’t want to talk with you again.” she let out the words without thinking. She doesn’t want to say it. She looked up, both of them locked eyes. “If you mean it, then I will go. You don’t want to talk with you?” she blinked a few times and someone intruded by taking a notebook for an autograph.
“Please, I am a big fan of yours. One autograph and handshake.” A young Roshord girl pleaded with him. “I am glad to do that.” he signed and shook her hands. She blushed and seemed to be the happiest girl in the whole town.
Another girl appeared behind her and pleaded to take a selfie. He did what they asked and glanced at Caroline’s unguessable expression. She once dreamed of meeting him like this. When they were gone, she begins again “Umm...I... “
“Whatever you want to say. Look at me. I am here sitting in front of you, not on the floor,” he said with slight irritation.
“I can’t... omg. You are driving me crazy,” she told in a nervous tone.
“Excuse me, sir, please I need her in the kitchen right now.” Bill intruded this time. “She will come after ten minutes,” he replied and Bill was slightly pissed off seeing him and Care together.
“I got to go. But I need your number now. Give it to my security or they won’t leave.” He ordered and walked away, glancing at his watch.
“I... I ...” She is out of words. The security looks make her want to run away. She told them, and they finally left the caffeine. ‘Seriously, what’s wrong with Daniel? I am just a simple girl. I got nothing special about me and he wants to talk to me. All I did was try to ignore a person like him. What if this is one of Becca’s plans to fool me for spilling the coffee?’ a million questions went on her mind without a single answer. The rest of the day she stared at her phone, waiting if him to call her. But she was disappointed by no response. ‘A celebrity won’t have time to talk to me. I should not expect it,’ she confirmed the words to herself like a mantra. She can’t even concentrate on her job.
CAN I EXPOSE HER SECRET? Ruby opened her locker. All her books, diary, papers, everything fell on the floor with a loud noise. All eyes are on Ruby Espinoza. Something was written on the side of the locker in red paint. “Hey, there coward, or can I call you loser?” She looked at everyone around there, controlling her tears. Laughter echoed in the hall and Becca was standing some steps away from Ruby. “You should see her face.” Tiffany laughed out loud. Why they are doing this without a purpose? There has to be some reason behind it. The red paint flows on the locker. Maybe It was painted a few minutes ago. Everyone looked sympathetically at her. She thought of bending down and taking all her books, but Becca wasn’t moving an inch from where she’s standing. “Becca, go to your damn class,” Charlotte’s voice echoed through the hall very loud and clear. “And also, you too,” Scott ordered to her friends Wes and Tif
PLAYING LACROSSE ISN’T SAFE “I never loved him. I want his money and power.” Becca willingly told this to tiffany. “But he loves you, Becca” Tiffany widened her eyes in shock. “Mm... what should I do for that?” she shook her head, did some make-up, and walked away. Tiffany followed her. Ruby stopped the video and came out of the half-opened door. “This is what I want. I won’t let you get my boyfriend or cheat on others. I need some help,” she muttered to herself, running out of the bathroom. As soon as she was out, she spotted Chloe talking with Ian. “Chloe,” she began approaching them but trying not to interrupt their conversation. "What happened?" Chloe asked, looking at her pale face. “I need to talk with you alone,” She looked at Ian, hoping he will leave. “Fine with me,” he shrugged. “Okay, now don’t take it wrong. Just give me a minute to show you this.” Ruby fumbled to take her phone. Chloe gasped at seeing it a
MET ME IN THE MYSTERY Whether it goes into the woods or not. Who’s going to examine it? Soon, Caleb, Bianca, and the others are treated in the hospital. It’s not a big issue after some days. The school was careless and didn’t have an idea to investigate it. Things were back to normal. Lacrosse can’t practice in the school area until the construction work is finished. It’s ongoing, which will be done before the match. It’s pretty difficult to fix the crack in the ground. The principal announced that the crack isn’t anybody’s fault. “How’s your brother?” Bill asked Care, leaning on the wall taking a break from work. “He’s good. I was being stressed nowadays,” said Care, letting out a sign standing next to him. No call from Daniel worries her a little. But most of the stress is on her work. Care and Charlotte alone can’t able to pay for their life every day. She had already taken leave for a few days to watch her brother’s health. “You are a str
FIRE, FIRE, FIRE Finally, the day has arrived, a lacrosse match. Everyone is eager to watch it. The playground is safe for the players. Lowe’s family arrived at the ground and searched for a place to sit and watch their brother. Lacrosse means the world to Caleb. “Char-lotte,” Jason called Charlotte, spotting her standing alone. “Coming,” she winked at him. Before they started to talk, Scott interrupted them unknowingly. “Do you want to join us?” Charlotte offered. With a nod, he sat next to her. Jason glared at him in frustration. He thought he could spend some more time with her. “Oh no,” Scott gasped all of a sudden. “What’s wrong” Jason spoke to him for the first time. “Did you mind if I support Raven’s team?” Scott asked, in hesitation. “Seriously, man, I won’t be accepting it if you aren’t my friend. But you are, so be it.” Charlotte responded to him. She doesn’t ask about who’s he going to cheer?
SHE’S DEAD Bill slowly looked down to see a boy lying. His leg is injured, blood flows from his leg continuously. “Help me,” he struggled to speak. Bill helped him to stand up. It seems like they will all go to die in the fire. The boy leaned on Bill’s shoulder and they made their way out of the destruction. Caleb is suffering inside the fire can’t able to find his way out of the burning house. He felt like this was the end of his life. When he was distracted in fear, the bricks above him were about to fall on him. Suddenly, someone pushed him down and saved him from death right on time. “Ruby,” Caleb talked in shock. “Let’s get out of here,” she urged, and stood on her feet. Then she looked at his arms, which were bleeding. “Why did you come here?” he asked her with pain in his body, struggling to get on his knees. “For who do you think? Iam here for you,” she replied in a panicked voice. They both stepped together, h
CONFRONTED HER The same day, they discharged Caleb. He didn’t talk with their sisters, no further questions about what happened when he left? If he showed his emotions to his sisters, they would have helped him feel better. But he kept everything inside him, dying inside. Care went silently to her room and took her diary. She only writes it when something happens that matters the most. Mostly it will be something happier or secrets or lies, but not death. 03 May, 11:30 pm, I never thought something so heart-breaking will happen. I still can’t believe it. Ruby is like one of us and she meant a world to Caleb. He will never be the same person, ever again. Ruby is Chloe’s BFF. She is a sensitive girl who can’t bear a small thing. Soon Ruby’s funeral will happen without her body. No one can find her body. All we can see is ashes. The worst death ever. It should never happen to anyone. Her sweet voice is still ringing in my ear. One thing that
WHO’S EXCITED ABOUT HOMECOMING? Chloe looked closer at the painting she drew a few days ago. She already drew the burning house which happened in real. It’s still hard to believe it. Is she physic? “Did you buy the dress?” Sara leaned closer near Chloe’s bench in drawing class. “What dress are you talking about?” Chloe asked, didn’t take her eyes off her painting. She is painting a princess. This time, her drawing is under her control. “Don’t you know that?” Sookie poked her nose in the middle of their conversation. “She doesn’t know that? Maybe she doesn’t have a date,” someone laughed over on the other side. Who will laugh like this except Becca’s friend? “Shut up, Tiffany. Don’t you dare intrude between us.” Sara warned her but Tiffany avoided and walked over to Chloe’s table? the teacher is distracted by a phone call. So, the class was so noisy except for some students who are drawing without getting distracted. “J
MEMORIES AND HEARTBREAKS Caleb is sitting on his couch having a photo of Ruby in his hands. There are no tears left to cry. He doesn’t want to go to school again. He paced back and forth in his room. Every memory of Ruby filled his mind. He still can’t forget the day he proposed to her. He can’t figure out why he’s so addicted to her. All he cares about is his passion and future. That’s why he never had any friends. He never cared about having a girlfriend until he met Ruby. Ruby is his obsession. ..... Caleb picked up Ruby from her home in his own car. The only car of Lowe’s family. “Where are you taking me?” Ruby happily asked him with her innocent smile. “You will see it soon.” they both locked hands and walked together into Caleb’s house. Somehow it feels like royalty. Caleb tied her eyes with a cloth and got her inside his house. At that time, they are just friends. Friends for more than four years. They bo
