Petals

Unknown

I lazily walked up to my front porch, opening the door to see my angry mother, her arms folded. Ok I get why she's angry... I got into detention... again

"What" I asked in a blunt tone

"Don't give me that look Arabella, I hear you got into detention again" She said the 'again' rather emphatically and I winced, suddenly feeling guilty

Once I walked into the house I hear most dreadful words coming from the woman who gave birth to me "As a punishment you will do the chores for a week"

I attempt to glare at her but its impossible cause I love my mother too much

"Uh Man" whining I went into the kitchen to get my candy.
"You do know that too much candy is bad for you" Mum says walking into the kitchen

Before I replied my annoying little brother Kevin came in and started to babble about something silly...
Wait are my ears working correctly or did I just here Kevin say he peed on my room floor

He ran away just before I screamed his name and chased after him... finally I caught him ready to give him what he deserves and he stopped me

"Wait, wait, I was joking ok!" the seven year old boy in front of me said, catching his breath.

I rolled my eyes and let him go humphed in annoyance then I marched up to my room. Sitting on my bed I brought out my phone from my back pack then threw it somewhere around my room

I got a message from an unknown number. Strange, I don't remember sharing my phone number with anyone today.

Unknown: Hi Arabella
Me: Who is this please?

I dropped my phone on the drawer, and in less than a second...

Wait... what is less than a second, Is there some math to do or something

Whatever

Anyway back to the story... In less that a second, my phone dinged. Looking at it I saw that the unknown person replied.

That was fast

Unknown: I wanna surprise you so I won't tell you for now😁

Is this guy serious, he's giving a weird Kidnapper vibe

Don't ask me how I know the vibe
Me: So how do I know that your not planning to kidnap me or sth
Unknown:😅 I would never plan to do that Ara, just wanna be friends
Me: How do you know my name. I don't think I've met a creepy guy before
Unknown: So you know it's a guy. Wow.... Your my classmate
Me: No girl would give a vibe like you do, and I know that cause I'm a girl... Have we met, seeing that you are in my class
Unknown: Yes we've met once but I don't think you'll remember....
Me: Your right about that...

Just then my stupid brain decided to ask the question I'm supposed to ask. I think my brain is slow...

Me : How did you get my number
Unknown: From a friend of yours
Me: Which friend
Unknown: If I told you it'll give away my identity
Me : Weirdo...

Rolling my eyes, I immediately went to the famous blue app, I was once told that the creator of the famous social networking site was colour blind that's why its blue... Don't know if it true though

But if he wasn't colour blind does it mean that Facebook would be like Orange

Eh its weird... Blue is perfect

After hours of scrolling through the internet, I heard Kevin's voice at my door informing me its Dinner
Uh its 6 already, Wow time flies so fast

Ok who's the dummy that invented that phrase, I mean did the dude see a clock with wings fly by. People are weird.

Kevin barged into my room and made a rather annoying statement.
Sighing, I stood up from my bed going to the dining

Sometimes.... I wish I had no brother

Sometimes.... I wonder what is like to have a dad

I don't want your sympathy. I mean my Dad passed away when I was like two and Kevin is adopted

Don't worry we told him that he is but he still doesn't understand the meaning of the word

Mum says Kevin reminds her of Dad sometimes

But hey I'm still living and still wondering what its like to have an older male figure in the house

Please ring the bell, please ring the bell.

3.. 2... 1...

Ringgg

Finally

Alright, as the Protagonist I will now use my Point of View to explain what's going on

That was Maths class and I absolutely hate... no dislike using my brain in order to find X

I mean who cares Maths, no one... she broke up with you so move on and stop forcing children to find her

If you didn't get that your loss.

Well its been a week now, am done with my punishment, and now its been a week since I've chatted with that 'Unknown' guy

Anyway, I saved his number as 'Mysterious' cause he is mysterious
Ok so I'm home right now and I just received the shock of my life

No, I did not get kidnapped, you guys really wanna get rid of me that easily...

My mum has a boyfriend... No wonder she's got hearts in her eyes

Don't ask me how I saw it

I hope he makes her happy or else am gonna be his worst nightmare

Does he even have nightmare, if he doesn't, I'm gonna be his first

I'm in my room now and I got a text message

Mysterious: I didn't know you hated Maths that much
Me: Yeah we always have to find X🙄
Ya know over the week, Mr. Mysterious revealed that he has a crush on me, that's probably why he won't approach me in school

If I told him I killed my neighbour's cat would he like me anymore... I don't know

Mysterious: Its been a week since we've known each other... well through texting and I'm ready to reveal my self
Me: Finally!!

I honestly don't know why I put exclamation marks

The reply came but before I read it my phone went off...
