Everything was dark, my head was throbbing like hell. When I opened my eyes everything was blur, I couldn't see anything clearly.I could hear voices beside me.
"Cora are you ok ? Cora?" George called form besides me. I couldn't quite make out what had happened, I blink my eyes a couple of times to get a better view. When I finally could see clear, I see a guy of about my age leaning on the wall opposite to me looking at me at if I was some joker in the circus, I quickly recognized him, He was the boy I had bumped into a couple of minutes ago. George calls for me again and I snapped my head to look at his worried face.
"Y-Yeah I am fine" I say in a low tone. I was sitting on the floor in one corner of the mall. The guy walks up to George standing beside him and said " Hey man, I guess she is fine now, you should take her home" he said casually and with that he leaves. Who the hell was he? He sounded like my mom , and such a rude asshole, he can't be anything close to my Mom. I am just over thinking.But no it can't be there has to be some reason, I instantly ask George.,
"Who was he ?
Wasn't he the guy I bumped into?
Why did you let him go ? " I asked million of questions to George and struggle to get up to go behind him.
I wanted to know the reason as to why I passed off hearing his voice. Why did his voice remind me of my mother. I had to know what was it that he attracted me so much.
"Cora, Cora? " George's voices snapped me out of my thought.
"Yes, I just need to follow that guy ok? Please take the car soon " I said in an hurried tone with my head turning to George and the direction the unknown guy walked to repeatedly like a lunatic.
" Ma'am ,please calm down we need to get you to the room first, you are not well." George insisted.
" But - ok" I sigh in defeat, he was right I needed sometime alone.George walks behind me, when we reach the exit, he asks me to wait there , when he jogs to get the car from the parking lot. My mind wanders off to that guy I just bumped into a few minutes back. His voice had that calm soothing effect on me, it reminded me of my mother. I don't exactly know why beacause when she passed away I was merely 8 months old.
A honk of the car snapped me out of my thoughts, George was inside the car .I walked up to the car and got in. I was slightly moved by this small incident that happened today. I could sense George look at me multiple times through the rear view to make sure if I was fine. When we finally reached the hotel I jumped out of the car and ran inside. I wanted to be alone , I missed my mother today, tears rolled down my cheeks by the time I reached my room.
I threw myself on the bed as soon as I got in. The tears ran down my cheeks, I felt lonely today as if I had nobody in this world. I hated God to take my mother away from me when I was a little child. Every girl needs her mother, A mother is every girl's shelter where she can share her happiness, sorrows, experiences, but I had nobody. Yes I had Ann but, no one can take the place of a mother.
When I finally calmed down I sat up on the bed and pulled my cellphone out of my pocket. I stared at my screen, I set the beautiful lady, my mother as my wallpaper. I decided to call Ann, I knew she could calm me down.
The phone rang twice before she picked up.
" Hello dear, I have been expecting your call anytime now " her cheerful voice boomed through my phone.
" Hello Ann, how are you doing?" I try to keep my voice as straight as possible, which I know was not working one bit. Why can't I just pretend that all is fine and everything will be fine, I have no idea why things so easily messed my head.
" Oh dear, have you been crying?" she asked concerned.
Who on earth was I trying to fool, Ann? She had some amazing telepathy with me, she even comes to know what I think at this moment. I sob, " No-no I am fine, just was missing mom" I say shutting my eyes close and letting the hot tears flow again. I know it was years that she passed away , but still I do miss her a lot.
"Oh dear, you know I am always with you right? ", Ann said with a soft and pitied tone.
I sigh " Yes I know Ann , I got to go I will call you later ", I said.
It was 11 o'clock and I had to get up early tomorrow to get into my hostel room and my classes also started tomorrow. I growled and got up from the bed , to get all my things in the bag and be ready to leave tomorrow to the hostel. I head to the closet and grab all my closed and start folding it . By the time I am done it was half past twelve and I was dead tired.
MORNING
The phone starts buzzing and I growled, I struggle to get my phone from the night stand , to put of the alarm and get some sleep. When I check the time next it was half past seven and I jumped out of bed and head straight to the bathroom to freshen myself. I should really start getting up on time, as I don't have Ann here to get my butts out of the bed.
I put on a red full sleeve top and a black denim jeans, I apply some eyeliner and mascara to just look like a college student rather then a zombie. I pulled my hair into a cute messy bun. My eyes were swollen from last nights crying and I cruse myself for being so sensitive. I really should be strong , but it is easy said then done , I sigh. I head down to the reception to pay the hotel rent and get to the hostel on time, I call George on my way down to keep the car ready. I now actually thank dad that he, kept a car and George of course for me or I had no clue, how I would have managed here.
When I see my hostel building , I get a lump in my throat, I suddenly feel nervous, my hand turn sweaty. I push back my anxiety and get out of the car, George gets my bags and follows behind me. I head to the hostel's head mistress's cabin.
The door shows "Miss Rachel Scott" and I internally cling at the name, I just had a feeling she would be really cruel,like the one's I see in the movies. I take a deep breath and knock the door for permission to enter.
" Come in " she called out ,and without another thought I entered the room. The room was white washed with a huge table in the center of the room and she was across the table her hands crossed, her eyes piercing mine.
" Good morning Miss Scott, I am Cora Gate", I said giving her a warm smile trying to create the best first impression on her.
" Good morning Miss Gates, I had a call from Mr. Hamilton this morning", she said with a smile on her face . She didn't seem like those in the movies, I should really stop being to judgmental. I immediately snap out of my thoughts giving her a huge smile and take a sit opposite to her.
She hands me with the key of my room and said that it's a twin sharing room and quickly informed me about the rules that I should follow. With that she stood up to shake my hand.
******
My room was on the fifth floor, I kept walking till I din't find the number 206 on the door. My room was the second last on the floor, I pushed in the key and unlocked the room. The site ,I saw was unbelievable I screamed and slammed the door shut, resting my head on the room, trying to clam down my breathing.
