(*Checking Refrigerator*)
Is there anything to eat? But, I don't know how to cook. Lol. I should probably go to some restaurant. Fork & Fables. Sounds good. I took my car and instead of walking i drove through a place, which was so pretty. It was so much green and clean. I loved it.
I reached that place and saw a blurry image of someone. It was like i have seen them somewhere. Wait. Is that James? What the hell is he doing here? Shit. I never thought he would come here. Why are my hands shaking. You are brave. You are not afraid of him. I hope he doesn't see me. A message pops on my screen. It was from someone unknown.
On The Phone
Unknown - Hey, Bella
Me - Who is it?
Unknown - You don't remember me?
Me - No I don't. Who are you?
James - James Williams.
Me - Why are you texting me now? I don't want to repeat anything that has happened in past.
James - I know you're right. Why don't you come here? It'll be good for me talk.
(*End*)

I went to that table and i sat. I just opened my mouth to ask him something but he ignoring me called the waiter. After ordering the fries and water he didn't say a word.
"What do you want?" I asked.
"Eat."
"I'm going." I said
"Go. Your dad will hate you more now." He said.
"It was my past. How did you find me? Where'd you get my number? " I said.
"Well, ask something important." He said.
"Where were you these years?"
"That's a good question. I was in jail. For 5 years because of thing you did." He said.
There was a silence.
"I'm sorry. But we did it. Not only me." I said.
"Please stop. Do it fast. We are gonna get caught." I said.
"Shut up. It's just cocaine. We are not getting caught." He said.
"Fuck. Cops are here. Who called them?" I said.
"Must be the owners. Fast." He said.
"Okay." I said.
"Ouch. My hand." He said.
"What? Did you get hurt?" I said.
"Yeah a little blood." He said.
(Saw the cut)
"What? Are you for real?" I said.
"Please run now." He said.
"Yeah it's my first time." I said.
"Running?" He said
"No. All these things." I said.
"Run!" He said.
"You were rich and still you are. I was not. But i will become." He said
"What do you want?" I asked.
"Well that I'll tell when it's the right time." He said.
"Okay." I said.
"I'm leaving." I said.
"Now you can." He said.
I'm so scared. What does he wants from me? No matter what yours demons will never ever leave you. Why? I left this all to start over. I left Madre Linda for good. But still. How did he find me? How did he get my number and from my where? I know I have done so many bad things. I now I was involved in something stupid, illegal buisness.
Someone grabbed my hand and pulled me towards himself, on pathway. My heart beating even more fast. I turned back. I was so scared I wished it wasn't him. It was Elias. Our eyes locked. We were just few inches away. I started to think of us kissing. His mouth brushing over mine. His lips colliding with mine. Wait. What are you even thinking. He. Is. Your. Friend.
"I was calling you but you weren't hearing me." El said.
"I'm sorry. I was just thinking." I said. I'm not telling him the truth.
"On a busy road. And almost get yourself killed." He said.
"Wasn't on my 'to do list'." I said.
"Better. Why you look sad?" He asked.
"Nothing." I said.
"That day?" He asked.
"Nah. I'm just bored. I wanna do something but i dont know what. I'm trying to be a good kid. But I'm not. I'm just some stupid girl with no goals in life. I wanna-" I said.
"Woah woah. Slow down babe. It's too much. You have me to think of. Stop thinking about all this bullshit. I love you okay? You are my bestest friend. You are the best person for me to exist." He said.
"Only best friend?" I asked.
"Yeah." He said smirking.
"I'm sorry didn't mean that." I said.
"I know." He said.
"Come let me drive you home." He said.
"It would be great but I have my car with me." I said.
"Oh okay. Drive safe." He said.
"Yeah. Next time I won't bring my car." I said.
He softly laughed and disappeared in the crowd.
I could use him as a company. I really need someone with me. I want to tell this all to someone. Someone who would not hate after this. I wish he was here and i wasn't scared of him judging me. I guess he won't. But I like him, what if he starts to hate me?
As sure as hell I hate myself.
I reached my home and got freshen up.
My phone rang. I was too sacred to even check the name. I went to see that it was my dad.
Fuck. The call was declined.
Shit. I'm dead.
On The Phone:
Me- Hey dad. Sorry didn't answered your call. I just got freshen up.
Dad- No need to make excuses. Well, congratulations dear.
Me- What? And for why?
Dad- For the collaboration.
Me- Yahh. Thanks dad.
Dad- Yeah. Good. We will be having a party soon.
Me- Okay. Dad.
Dad- Bye.
Me- How-. Bye.
(End)

He never talks to me like I'm his daughter. It's just buisness client or something. I wanted to clear my head but now. Aghhhh... Grr... I hate all of this. This fake life I'm living. My fake self everyone else knows. I want to tell everything to him. To Elias. But I can't. I'm scared what he would feel. Will it be the same. Or different. I don't understand what to do.
Tomorrow I'll text him for the collaboration and maybe tell the truth (sighs).
