My alarm didn't ring. What time is it? I check my phone and gasp. 11 AM?!?! I'm late for work! I had to be there 6 hours ago! Wait I need to text Giovanni. Wait... Someone already texted him.
It wasn't me. I see a note on the bedside table. You can take a day off. ; ) I need to have a serious conversation with JC. But for now. I enjoy my day off. I try to fall asleep again but fail, so I get up and make an avocado toast and some fried eggs. When was the last time I ate something? Maybe I need to thank JC instead. I see an other note on the kitchen table. There is food in the fridge, help yourself. Yeah I already did that JC. I wanted to brush my teeth but then I remembered that my things are still at my dad's house. Well guess a fruit gummy will do it. Because I surely will not go back there. Not now. Not as long as a stranger sleeps in moms side of the bed. But I go to the bathroom to wash my face though. There is another note at the mirror. I'll get your stuff later. JC really is a good friend. I'll do him a favor by cleaning up the whole house which wasn't really hard because it ain't really big. Not at all. I also make the bed and even clean the toilet. Discussing!! Then I make myself comfortable in the living room and watch a Turkish TV show. It's translated into English.After a few hours of wasting time I get up and leave the house to get some fresh air. I must admit JC lives in an nice neighborhood. I see an old woman across the street struggling with her shopping bags. I thought about helping her buuuut it seemed like she was almost there sooo.
I reach an Pizzaria and go inside. I order an pizza salami and take a seat. It tastes good though. After a few bites a woman with blonde hair and blue eyes allows herself to sit on my table. She wears a blue crop top which fits to her eyes and a pair of jeans. She wears her short hair down. "Hey." She says cheerly. "Who are you?" "I'm Sandra and you?" "Why'd you sit here?" "I thought you look nice so maybe we could be friends you know. I'm new here." "Me to." "Nice then we can look around together." "I don't think so." "Uh, umm okay, have a nice day then." She says sadly. She gets up and leaves. So that's why I don't have any friends. I suddenly think about JC. I really don't have any other friends. Okay let's change that. "Hey wait!" She turns around. "I think before we go look around we should eat some pizza." Her face lights up. "This sounds nice." She sits down and calls a waiter to order. She didn't lie when she said she's new. She orders a freaking Hawaii pizza. Wow. The whole restaurant gasps. I just met this girl and she already embarrassed me wow a new record. "Girl we're in Italy." Even the waiter was shocked. "Oh, haha it was just a joke." She says nervously and everyone sighns in relive. "I would like a pizza margarita please." The waiter goes to the kitchen and I smile and she laughs. "This was kind of embarrassing." "Dang right it was." I say. We talk and joke around until we're done eating. We then get up, pay and leave. "So where are we going now?" She says. "How about home?" "Boring." "Then what do you want?" "The mall?" "Where is the mall." "I don't know." "Wow." "Isabella!" A voice yells behind us. I turn around and see JC in his uniform running towards us. "So Isabella is your name." Sandra says. I shrug my shoulders. When JC finally made his way to us I see his sweat on his forehead. He breathes agresevly. "Did you run a marathon?" I ask. "Y- you're in danger." "What?" "Who is this?" Sandra asks. "That's JC. He's a friend of mine." "Nice to meet you." JC says. "Hey I'm Sandra." They shake hands. "So what do you mean I'm in danger?" "Your dad was kidnapped." My eyes wide open and I almost fade away. "What!?! Please tell me your joking." "I wish I am. But I'm not. This blond lady reported him missing and we found a note in your room. 'his daughter is next.' I came the moment I heard it. I'm so sorry Isabella." First my mom and now my dad? Why dose life hate me so much? I hold my tears back. I'm next?
