Beautiful Mistakes

CHAPTER FIVE

Zylith's mom called her non-stop but her phone didn't go through. It was switched off. She called Judy in hopes of finding out that she was at her place but she wasn't.

She was so worried and prayed that Zylith didn't do anything crazy. Zylith had been suicidal before. That fact scared her.

Judy rushed to Zylith's place as soon as she heard about the situation.

"Judy."

"Aunt," Judy rushed towards her.

"We need to look for her right now, we can't wait till the morning. It might be too late," Claire panicked.

"Relax aunt we are going to find her. She's alright."

She dropped the car keys out of panic. Judy helped her pick them up and handed them back to her then they went to the car park.

"Can you drive?" Claire asked Judy.

"Yes but I'm not that good," she replied.

"Please drive. I am shaking too much. I need to calm down," she threw the keys to her. Judy wasn't confident about her skills but she accepted. It was for her best friend and maybe, even for her enjoyment. You know how teenagers get hyped up about driving.

Moreover, she knew how sensitive Zylith was about her family. Especially her father.

They looked for her in all her favorite spots but didn't find her. Her mom was trying her phone the whole time but it didn't go through. Claire told Daniel, her boyfriend about what had transpired. He joined them in the search but none of them got a clue of where she was.

I went to Benjamin, my best friend's place to chill and have some beers. I needed to refresh my mind. I told him about what was going on and all I got from him was his laughter.

"Are you serious?" he stopped laughing and sipped from the bottle.

"Why would I joke about such a thing," I rolled my eyes.

"Why would you say all those things to her then!" he scolded me.

"What things?" I frowned.

"You didn't have to make her feel like she's a piece of shit. Why do you always say shit that's hurtful to the girls you fuck with!" he scolded, "You are actually a moron."

"Are you being for real mahn?" I looked at him in disbelief.

"Yes. I am being real with you right now. Don't be shocked if they all decide to kill you one day. You are too arrogant for no reason," he smacked me in the head.

"Ghosh you sound like my mom," I rolled my eyes at him.

"Those girls follow me alone I don't force them to. They all want to taste this handsome piece of meat. They depend on it. There's no way they can kill me," I spoke after a moment of silence.

His jaw dropped as he turned to face me. I stood up laughing when he threw a pillow at me. We argued for a bit until I agreed to go and apologize even though I knew I would never do it.

We then drunk some beers and watched the soccer matches that were on.

*Later in the morning*

-Zylith-

I woke up and took a hot shower. I spent a lot of time in the shower, thinking. I knew I couldn't run away from it for forever. I had to face it. I had to face them.

I got out of the shower and wiped the mirror that was covered with steam, staring at my reflection in the process. My eyes were swollen from all the crying. My hair was wet from the running water in the shower. It wasn't my intention to make it wet. It had taken me ages to dry before. It was back to the wavy curls.
