Being a Hollywood Actor's Girlfriend

Assembling

My dad used to read me bed time stories when I was small. I used to forget everything else and enter a world of my own. These stories of fairies and goblins, prince and princess or a group of kids involved in something like adventure etc. used to fascinate me. I used to ask my dad whether such stuff happens in real life to which he replied with utmost belief that it did happen. Over the years, I forgot this conversation with him but today from nowhere it occupied a substancial part of my brain. I realized that something like this was going to happen in my life. I am almost in the middle of this mystery.

I found Finnick shaking me with both of his hands on my shoulder. I felt as if I had just woken up from a trance. Finnick was looking at me questioningly and had a concern look in his eyes.

"What happened to you? I was asking you over and over again and you were not responding!"

"I don't know," I shrugged of casually."Just thinking something,"I added abruptly.

Finnick looked at me one more time and after some time asked in despair, "When will Anne and Tessy come? It's been ages since they said that they are coming!"

As I tilted my wrist to see the time on my wrist-watch, the door bell rang.

I quickly got up and went to open the door. I got a glimpse of Tessy as I was opening the door. I had barely opened it when her outburst began.

"Andrea! What important news you have to tell us? What is it ab-" I placed my hand on her mouth and took her in.

"In answer to all your questions," I began saying, "you need to wait until Anne comes."

Tessy was getting impatient and was pouting."Oh no, I cannot wait a second longer. You better tell me now," she said sulkily till she saw Finnick. She ran off like a little girl who has a giant teddy bear standing before her. I smiled as I saw her going and talking to him.

Next, we all sat at the table waiting for Anne as she still hadn't arrived. Finnick grumbled out of frustration,"Oh Anne. She is always late!"

He really wanted Anne and Tessy to be told about this note thing fast. Sometimes, Finnick really keeps me on the verge of confusion. Yesterday, he absolutely didn't want them to be told and today he was getting so impatient to tell them!

Boys will be boys.

After what it seemed to be a million years but in real sense fifteen minutes, Anne finally arrived. I secretly thanked God for her arrival as I was getting bonkers trying to tell Tessy to be patient. But I was also getting furious at her now as this issue needed to be seen quickly.

"Hope I didn't keep you waiting much!" she said wincing.

This line as if a punchline added to my anger. "Hope I didn't keep you waiting?" I said imitating her. "We all were waiting for you since ages. I told you to come right away,didn't I? We have an important thing to discuss," I yelled at her but she didn't seem to care.

"Listen I got stuck up in some work," she started to justify."My mom had sent me tell something to my new neighbours. I was meeting them for the first time. I went-", she continued to justify but was stopped by Finnick.

"Enough of this. Let's get to the main topic."

I agreed with him as we were late already but I saw Anne flying daggers at him. She set eyes on Finnick for a few seconds and without saying anything continued with her talk. I was well aware of this attitude of hers. Anne wants to tell something and you tell her to stop?

Impossible.

No.

Unimaginable.

"So where was I?" she asked before her chattering started.

She looked around at each of us as we sat still, not saying anything.

"Yeah. So my mom told me to tell something to my new neighbours. You know like we will always be there for help and such bullshit..so a chubby red-haired woman opened the door. I told her that I needed to talk to Mrs. Berry.

Strange name, isn't it? She smiled and went to call her. It was a long time since she came back and I was getting pretty mad when I saw her gazing out from the balcony of her house. I yelled at her why she didn't call her and she seemed confused. She even asked me who I was and what I was doing here. Seeing me yelling, she came down to the door.

When I questioned her, she said she was only Mrs. Berry. I told her I was in no mood for any jokes and in a bit hurry. But she was adamant about the fact that she was Mrs. Berry. We were still arguing when I got the shock of my life.

Standing next to her was an identical woman. Seeing me, that woman said she was sorry she forgot to call Mrs.Berry but she couldn't help it because she suffered from Alzheimer's disease in which people have loss of memory. I was bewildered. She then explained she was Mrs. Rasberry, sister of Mrs. Berry.

I was still trying to absorb eyerything when the two started singing this-

She is Mrs Berry
And I am Mrs Rasberry.
Oh Oh Oh..we both like Katy Perry.
Oh Oh Oh Katy Perry...'

After this they both dissolved into laughter. I felt anger rising in me for making me late so I quickly told them that I was their neighbour and we are available for any help. They made a disgusting face and told me rudely that we don't need any help. The next second, they shut the door. I came back as soon as I recovered from this madness."

Anne looked at us waiting for our reaction but we all just stared blankly at her.Then I felt laughter rising insiding me. I laughed so much that tears started coming from the corner of my eyes. Tessy and Finnick had also joined by now.

This is why I like Anne. Everything she does or says makes me laugh. She is such a jolly sport. I mean even her reason for being late was so funny that I, no, everybody forgave her for her late-coming.

I seriously liked this girl like hell.
