My celebrity crush

Chapter 10: Suicidal girl

Charlie's POV:

It's been almost 24 hours since I last so Crystal . I feel so bad for just running off like that like a stupid coward. It just happened all of a sudden. A bunch of emotions interfering with my sense of right and wrong , the exact thing that ruined someone's life.

Maybe I should go back and apologize , I wonder if she'll forgive me.

Whenever there is a mention of Anthony I just freak , my hands become sweaty and all I want to do is hind in a corner. Tried to kill myself once, not my best decision and I realized that after I almost made my older brother go into shock.

He's the only one I've had in this world since my parents passing . He's all that matters and not even my guilt would cause me to do something that would hurt him.

I stare at my phone screen , looking at Anthony's number. He's the only possible way to get a hold of Crystal in this city. Maybe helping someone close to him will give me the peace of mind to finally forgive myself.

"Hello" a voice says from the other side. I panic and utter no words at all . I'm about to hang up when I hear another voice : "who is it Anthony?"

*Gulp* "This is your chance Charlie , Crystal is with him somehow and you might never get another opportunity such as this one" , I tell myself.

"Ant?"

"Charlie", he's recognized me , I can't do this. I cut the call instantly.

I decide to just continue going wherever my legs take me and while doing so I witness an interesting scene.

There's a sound of glasses breaking from a house a few metres behind me and following that is loud shouting. I look back and see a girl being pushed roughly out of the gate by a guy , he's horribly drunk and keeps shouting at her so much she covers her ears and starts screaming "stop it" over and over again.

The guy looks like a college student while the girl must be in her teens, not too young but something like a year younger than Cystal is.

"I just wanted to put a padlock of love with you on the Namsan tower , why are you blaming me?" The girl shouts sobbing heavily.

The guy says something in korean and throws a bottle at her , giving her a head injury . By now their little argument has gotten the attention of all passers-by. Everyone just watches in silence while some just look and continue with their own lives.

She tries to calm him down and cuddle but he pushes her down. An older lady comes out, glowers at the girl and drags the guy back inside , leaving the girl on her knees in her gray and white uniform , crying and shouting out the guys name. It could be her saying something to him in korean but it sounds like a name to me .

Is she okay? Doesn't look like it , the wound on her head is bleeding but she doesn't even seem to feel any pain from it. She stays for a while crying , once the drama is over , everyone goes back to whatever they were doing like such things are a normal part of their lives. Does this happen often ?

Since no one is helping I might as well go across and suggest going to see a doctor.

I stand behind her , everyone passing by keeps gossiping and looking at her in disgust like she's the one who's in the wrong.

"Leave me alone!" She states so I walk away , I only have one motto in life , "don't be a nuisance to people , leave when told to , don't ask if not told." It's as simple as that .

"I can't do this anymore!" She says to herself getting my attention . I look back. She gets up and with all her frustrations runs off leaving me flustered.
