Chapter 4

02:55 In the morning
I can't sleep
It's been hell of a whole week.
Every time I close my eyes in search of getting some sleep I see faces.... Faces I don't want to remember, I see flash of memories.... Memories I don't want to remember.... I hear voices.... Voice I don't want to hear.
Laying in my bed, I glance at my bedroom's window.. It is a full moon night..
I sighed and get up from my bed.. I haven't eaten anything after the sandwiches I had for the breakfast and I am certainly hungry right now..
I made my way to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator's door. I find some left-outs from yesterday's dinner and a half empty pack of bread.. Not something I want to eat right now..
The cookies that i made are already delivered to my new neighbours.. In the afternoon after the visit to that hot lips b@st@rd's house, I went straight towards my house and then after regaining my mood and will to speak to people, I delivered the cookies to the others..
As I was wondering If i should find something better to eat or not eat at all, The whole house went on a light-out.

Did this electricity also have to go now?
I sighed and closed the refrigerator's door and walked straight towards my room's window hoping to get some fresh air.
And just like that the whole night passed..

Next day
In the early morning
Infront of Summer's kiss café
Sylvia Brown
Sylvia Brown
It's a day off?
I asked with my eyes wide opened, as my one and only friend sighs and nods towards me. She too works here with me.
We both are right infront of the café.
Pearl Rose
Pearl Rose
Yeah, it is.
Pearl Rose
Pearl Rose
Lily is out of town for a few days so the café will remain close. It's paid holidays.

Sylvia Brown
Sylvia Brown
That's good but why didn't she tell me?
I asked desperately. I don't know why Lily didn't tell me about this. She's not like this. It's weird.
Pearl Rose
Pearl Rose
Well she did left a message.
Sylvia Brown
Sylvia Brown
sigh....
Sylvia Brown
Sylvia Brown
Whatever!
Sylvia Brown
Sylvia Brown
By the way! What are you doing here?
Pearl Rose
Pearl Rose
Umm.. I got a date....?
She says with a grin so big on her face that i think i just saw her lips touching her ears.
She is genuinely happy.
Sylvia Brown
Sylvia Brown
..... What? With whom?
Sylvia Brown
Sylvia Brown
Last time I checked, you were crying over 'Why a mafia had not yet kidnapped you or why you haven't met a $exy vampire'.
I said, giggling.
Pearl Rose
Pearl Rose
Hey!(⁠╬⁠☉⁠д⁠⊙⁠)⁠⊰⁠⊹ฺ

<smiles innocently>
Pearl Rose
Pearl Rose
<sighs> Umm, it's a secret for now!
I frown
Pearl never keeps secret from me.
It's the first time.
Pearl Rose
Pearl Rose
Don't worry! I'll tell you when the time comes.(⁠ノ⁠◕⁠ヮ⁠◕⁠)⁠ノ⁠*⁠.⁠✧
Sylvia Brown
Sylvia Brown
<sigh> Alright, as you wish.
Pearl Rose
Pearl Rose
<smiles widely>
Sylvia Brown
Sylvia Brown
But you have to promise me you won't get in any kind of trouble and that guy is a true gentleman.
Pearl Rose
Pearl Rose
Yeah yeah, you should go now!
Pearl Rose
Pearl Rose
He must be on his way! (pushes her in other direction lightly)
Sylvia Brown
Sylvia Brown
Alright, take care.

It's strange.
Like really, really strange.
Pearl and I have been best friends for at least three years now. And she never keeps any kind of secrets from me. But lately, she is acting strange. Weird.
Asking for early paycheck from Lily, arriving late and then leaving early, started taking too many holidays. Even if she's working, She keeps getting distracted or zoning out.
I wonder if that's because of her new boyfriend.
I just wish he is a good guy.
