I wanted it to be a peaceful night but, once again, for the second time now, the Notification Center started getting jammed.
I silenced my phone and tossed it to a corner. Rolling over the bed for a few minutes, as my sleep was already disturbed, I took the phone and read the messages, and they were the same as the previous night's messages from the same numbers. There surely was something disastrous behind it. All I could do after was force myself back to sleep.
It was the weekend, I didn't have any other plans except, I had my tennis practices that day. Getting ready to go to the court, I happened to spot something which doesn't belong in my room. "Oh right! The umbrella!" I totally forgot about it. I had to stop by the cafe, to return that new guy's umbrella before going to the tennis court. The place was running quite busy, I had to wait for about 10 minutes in line to see him.
"How can I help you?" He asked looking down at the list of orders. "I just stopped by to return this." I said and only then he looked at me and he took it with a warm smile. "Thanks miss...?" "Oh, I'm Athena."
"Ian Dawson."
He said stretching out his arm for a handshake. Just as I held it a grumpy old man from the behind went, "Oh there are others here waiting to order, you aren't the only people here!" And I took my hand back and moved my hair behind my ear. "I'll get going now." I said as he nodded smiling.
I arrived late at the court, so I had to wait until the match between Jason and Emma was over. Jason is Ellen's brother, who is also a friend of mine and Emma, what I can say about her is that we were always in some hot water with each other. So I was internally hoping for Jason to win as the match started getting intense and many other players started to gather around to watch the match. 'Oh no what's it now.' That sound. "TUK" that sound as the ball hits the racket. "TUK, TUK TUK" 'No' "TUK" 'Not again!' And I ran out of the place, sat down in a corner and hid my face on my knees.
After a while, I don't know how long, But Jason passed and noticed me slowly banging the back of my head on the wall. "Uh.. Athena, are you alright?" He questioned, obviously having a slight idea of what's going on.
