Chapter 17

Alice's P.O.V

I sat on the bus and was on my way back to home. I figured everything that happened today. Today was a normal day but a bit flavors were mixed. I didn't know how to describe how I felt. Should I smile? No and what for?. Should I cry? No, I would waste my expensive tears. My tears are Gucci. Well, it was okay. No climax yet. A bit plot twist. Hmm... sometimes I feel bored with my life. Every morning I have to wake up from asleep and go to school. At school, I need to study for examinations and not for the seek of knowledge. I do want to learn for the seek of knowledge but the environment in the place where I live distracts me sometimes. With the education system that controls my days, makes me unhappy because I sometimes can't use my own opinions or any facts out of text books. This is life. If I could stop the time, I would fly to Hawaii and I would also dance while playing ukulele but I would skip coconut bra and grass skirt. And... that won't happen.

Well I remembered a few things that happened today...  I slept in the classroom. The teacher asked me why. The whole class laughed at me. Everything went normal back. I had lunch alone. Eve's absence wasn't awkward at all. It's a normal thing. I brought a burger from home. Well, I prepared it. Wow I could be a chef. After lunch, another class. Ring. School had ended. I was in rush and headed straight to the library. I bumped into a person. I apologized because I knew that I was guilty. In the library, I gave the book which I borrowed for a few days to the librarian. I went to my locker to take some stuff in it. I got a note that Eve always gave me. I put it into my backpack quickly. I still hadn't read it. I ran to the bus and found a seat. Those were the things which happened to me today. A normal day right?

Oh oh! wait! I remembered a thing. The note. Oh yeah, I still hadn't read it!. I took my backpack which was next to me. I looked through every part of it because I totally forgot where I put it into. Oh My God, I was such an old lady!. How could I be like this? I was still looking for the small piece of paper. Where were you?. I already checked every part of my backpack but I didn't find it!. What should I do now? I really wanted to know the words that contained on that paper!. Oh yeah! I forgot to check one more parts in my backpack. The front one!. I quickly unzipped it because I couldn't wait to read the note  anymore!. There you were! I took it out from my backpack and the note now was in my hand.

"At least you didn't do wrong things at night ;)"

Didn't do wrong things at night? What had I done today? Oh yeah, I slept in the class and an idiot made fun of me. Everyone laughed. I watched Sherlock Holmes last night. Did that count as a good thing?. Of course it did because I watched a cool TV series. Plus, Benedict Cumberbatch is a cutie. Sherlock Holmes will always be my favorite thing to watch! I had read the novel too!. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle  thank you for this!. You were the starter of this cool story!. Come on, England! hehehe. Ops, back to that note again, usually the notes which Eve sent to me based on anything that happened to me. She's always with me at school. Nice note Eve. Eh, why did I smile? Eve's such a flirty person. You flirted with me  through this note eh? Hahaha. Thats what friends are for.

Wait! wait!. I blinked a few times, looking at this note all over again. Same handwriting. What's the deal with the smiley face?. To be honest, I felt happy with all notes who I always thought were from Evelyn. But, were they actually sent by Eve?.  Were they all from Eve?. Why did I confirm all of the notes from her?. Why? This thing started to get weirder because she wasn't at school today!. I didn't know why because sometimes she has to take care of her younger siblings or else!. Eve didn't witness me at school today. Weird. Did she send a postman to send the notes to me? Why would she do that?!. Of course, she wouldn't!.  I guessed all of the notes weren't from Eve at all. They must be from someone else?. But whom?. Did someone stalk me before this?! My life was getting messier day by day!. I might have a stalker!. Someone probably stalked me every single day. I didn't know about that until I got this note today. I kept all the notes I got in a box because I thought they were from Eve!. I couldn't breathe anymore!. I had a stalker!. What for?. Was I a secret agent or what? Was the person paid to kill me?. Oh My God! No... What should I do know?. Mom, Dad, Andy, Ansel! Help!.

The bus finally stopped in front of my house. I got up from the seat then started wearing my backpack. I stepped forward from the seat and went to the door. I walked out from this bus without looking back because I couldn't wait to be at home!. I headed to the front door and unlocked it. Yeah, I made it!. I stepped into the house and locked the door again. Nowadays, everything ain't safe anymore.

"Ting!" the sound from my handphone showed that I got a few messages. Surely, because the WiFi was turned on by mom last morning but until now, nobody turned it off.  I put my backpack on the floor. I made my way to the living room and sat on the sofa.

I took it out from my pocket then unlocked it. Four people texted me on iMessage. Okay, what did they want? I saw 4 familiar names. They're Mom, Dad, Andy and Eve.  Firstly, I read a text from Mom.

Mom: Please fetch Ansel at 4, I've a meeting today

Me: Mmmmkay.

I looked at the clock, it was still 2:30 o'clock in the evening. Relax. 1 hour and half to go. Ansel had karate class today. I didn't want to fetch Ansel but I had to because Mom would kill me. That boy needs to be independent but my parents like to baby him.

Second text. From Dad. What did Dad send to me?

Dad: Hey Al, America is awesome!  Fetch Ansel at 4

Me: Buy me some cool stuff or I won't do that :p

Hahaha I was really happy to blackmail Dad. He might be scared. My parents love Ansel so much. Huh, I was too tired to read the same order! I knew it already!. It was annoying. Dad was in America because he got a surgery to do. His patient was American so he needed to go there. The perks of being a specialist. I hate being a doctor thats why I don't to follow his footstep. Did he think I was jealous of him for being in USA? I was but not really... He couldn't walk around the US leisurely at all because he got works to do!

Third person, Andy. This crazy dude who was in Ireland now.

Andy: ELLO AL!

Me: Who dis? Wrong number.

I ignored Andy because I knew he would mess up with me. Furthermore, I would waste my time.

Forth person, Eve.

Eve: Hi! Can we meet @ Starbuck today? @ 3.30? R u free? :) Can't wait 2 tell u something! A happy thing!

Me: K. Really? Can't wait.!

I couldn't wait to meet her this evening!. Fortunately, I didn't have homework today!. I wondered what she was so happy about. I really wanted to know!. First, I would meet her then I would fetch Ansel. I wanted to ask her a  few questions like why she didn't come to school and more. But the most important question I wanted to ask was "Eve did you send me notes before this?" because I did wonder who was the person that sent me those notes before this?.
