We sat down at the table,eating chicken and rise that my mom and sister made, all in silence..
I want him out of my house! He is a killer for fucks sake! How could he stand there being so calm without any guilt? How?
My sister tried to grab the salt at the same time as Nick, causing their hands to touch
Val giggled and blushed while he smirked.. fuck.. now my sister likes him great.. just great..
"So.. nick how's Carmen?" I asked,now let's see your movie bastard!
He nearly chocked on his food hearing her name "Carmen?" My mom asked "his girlfriend" I answered..
Now what are you going to do you bastard? You're trapped!
"We..uh.. kinda broke up a few days ago" lies lies all but lies.. bastard
"Oh. I'm sorry.." My sister said "don't worry.. we are better as friends.." he drink a little bit of water
My mom calmed at his lies about breaking up with Carmen as she wanted to set me up with him
"I better get going!" He wiped his mouth with a handkerchief "ill give you the film at school!" He said getting up
"What film?" My mom asked.."from our interview?" My eyes widened.. fuck...fuck...
"But Penelope doesn't interview people"
"I thought she was staying journalism?" He asked looking at me "yeah but her main focus is audio-visual violence"
And boom! My cover was blown up by my own mother! Nice move mum!
"Yeah, but I need material.. I have a project on a girl's case and I need witnesses.. so I used nick" I lied
He raised his eyebrows, not believing a word I said "okay then.. see you in class"
____________________________________________________________I run towards my class, im fucking late! I'm fucking late! Fuckk..
I speed up, holding my bag as close to me as possible.. fuck I forgot that they replaced folks! I thought I had a free period.. come on!
I passed the locker without paying any further attention to my surroundings as my mind was focused on being late
I took a turn, speeding up my movement, but my eyes spotted something unfamiliar.. Nick
Nick and Carmen sucking each other's face off, yuck! And that bastard said they broke up.. fuck you and your lies!
I rolled my eyes and opened the blue double door of my class, I was so angry.. he is lying to my face! Bastard!
Calm down Penelope, deep breath in.. breath out... Phew I got this
"Hello?" I said entering the class, a stranger was sitting in the teachers chair, where professor folks was sitting
"Ah.. you must be.." he paused checking the list "Penelope kiomi! You study audio-visual journalism right?" He asked in which I nodded "folks helped you a lot, didnt he?" He asked "yes" I said quietly
"Sit down" I walked to my desk, sitting down "ill be happy to do everything He did to you Penelope, if not more"
"As you know, professor folks died, rest in peace.. he died from a asthma attack.. I'm really sorry for him.. I know you all liked him and I hope you will like me as much as you liked him!"
Yeah.. no way.. folks was a sweetheart.. you are a creepy old man
"Im Stefan Kolpus! I have won 3 Oscar's in directing and 1 Oscar for playing the male lead.. I hope you and I have a very good relationship. Now because it's our first day, you're dismissed you!"
Now you are bribe us in order to make yourself liked by other students? Such an ass.. folks won't do anything like that..
All students smiled and packed their things as I did, but as I tried to exit through the door he stopped me
"Kiomi! Can you please come to my office? I want to talk to you about something.." his vibes were creepy as fuck
"yeah, can I come in 5 minutes? I have to use the restroom" I lied, I knew Chris had a free period and I wanted to talk to him about what happened
"Of course" he said letting me go
Chris was waiting for me just outside class "so what did you wanted to talked to him about?"
"Nick came to my house.." I said, his eyes widened in shock "what? What did he do?"
"he took some videos of me for the interview.. you know me saying the questions at loud and nodding to his words.. he is such an asshole"
"That's it?" His face calmed down a bit "no because my mother asked him to stay with us for lunch!" Ironic isn't it?
"I told you, he'll use his angel face to trick you! And know he used it to trick your family!"
"I know! I'm so glad that I listen to your words.. thank you Chris.." I wrap my hands around his chest and hugged him "any time" he hugged me back
"He also told me that he bought the camera by second hand, do you think that he is telling the truth?" I said looking at his eyes
"Of course not, that rich snob git would even look at something that is second hand"
"Youre right.... so...what's our next step now Sherlock?" I changed the topic, breaking the hug "we are going to visit the movie library! Just as folks did.. I saw something weird that I wanna tell you-"
"You can tell me.... in five minutes I have to talk to Kolpus! He wants me in his office!" I turned my back on him and walked away "wait Penelope-"
"Later!" I shouted
I walked to kolpus office.. it was near the classroom so I didn't waste anytime walking
The door was opened wide.. he was sitting on his chair, smoking a cigarette
I took a deep breath and knocked on the door "come in!" He shouted
"You wanted to see me?"
"Yes, I wanted to take a look at your project, please sit down" he show the seat with his hand
I took a deep breath and sat down, opening my bag and taking out my project "here" I gave to him
He place my files down, turning the pages, taking a quick look at them without paying any attention to what I wrote in them
"Very good Ms kiomi.. would you mind if I took them home to study them?" He asked"N-" I was interrupted by Chris "don't you dare saying yes!"he grabbed my project and shoved it into my back
"Ms Trish what seems to be the problem?" Kolpus asked
"Penelope, this is the guy that edits those movies in the cassette! He is -" I was terrified, I can't believe him!
"A killer" I completed "run!" He shouted grabbing my hand, I froze..
He started running in the hallways grabbing me with him as he sped up "slow down!" I shouted " are you crazy?" He yelled back
Kolpus was caching up a few feet behind us, he was getting closer and closer
"Open the door!" Chris yelled at me, signaling me to open the red cinema door
I opened it and he rushed in with me just behind him closing the door behind me "are you alright?" He asked letting go of my hand
"Yes.. I'm okay!" The cinema was empty.. echoing our voices "how did you figure it out?" I locked the door so he couldn't enter
"I gave the security guard a gift, and he let me check the cameras of the movie library! I saw folks searching for the cassette and kolpus coming from a hidden door, which I found very suspicious-"
"So, when do we check the movie library?" I asked while breathing heavily "7:00 pm, don't be late!"
