Cobby spent the night with me, again. I know it's unusual for a guy that you meet few days past and he is already sleeping in your room. Well, that's my story and it's my choice though. So I got up and looked over to the calender. I was feeling a bit dizzy from the slight illness I had felt the day before. I realised that that day was my birthday as in today. I looked all over the room and I didn't find Cobby. I went over to Chrissy's room to ask. When I went to her room, I saw her sobbing. She tried to hide her tears but she was late. She said lightly, ''happy birthday babe."

I looked at her and rolled my eyes. I went to sit on her bed crossed my legs and asaid, ''it's Jed right?" She nodded and added, ''my whole life is fucked up. I have a messed up, complicated love life with Jed. He hasn't called for the past three days and has not been answering my calls. And my dad said he will come home soon. I hate him so much Ellie. All he brought to me was sadness and he made my mum's life a living hell. I am going to stop crying because today is your birthday. I love you so much Ellie, you don't have to suffer with me even though I know that you are, and... '' I cut her off with a hug and whispered into her ear, ''don't worry babe, this is only a messed up stage but this will pass okay. I've been with you through every high and low, the fact that that it's my birthday doesn't stop me from showing you that I care okay? I love you more and I hate to see you like this, now cheer up today's my birthday!" After getting her to smile, I asked, ''have you like seen Cobby around here somewhere though?", I asked getting worried. How can this boy get out without leaving a note or something?

®®®®

She replied saying, ''no I haven't seen your lovey dovey, didn't he sleep in your room yesterday and baby sit you?" I smiled but with a concerned look. He did all that but I don't remember him saying anything like that. I went back to my room to check in case I saw any note, as I was screening through my room, my eye caught a red paper pasted on the bathroom. Oh! He had better left a note. It read, ''Ellie, there has been an emergency and I have to got to my father who is in America now. I'm so sorry that we couldn't spend our birthday together. I will be in the airport boarding the 10:00 plane. If you hurry you might see me before I leave." When I read it, I was broken, like literally. What the duck does this boy want me to do? Mission Impossible? I am not about to get out of this house hurriedly with my condition. I don't care anyways. I was pacing up and down thinking about how I don't care about Cobby. And how I'm so angry at him.

Oh forget if, I'm going to see him. I just confusely went up to have a bath still confused, I hurried just so I'll meet him before he left. I couldn't imagine my life's without him. I bathed quickly and went over the stuff my dad had bought me. I saw a black crop top with the writing 'LOVE IS IN THE HEART' boldly on it. And I took a deep blue pair of jeans. And I saw a hairband which was red with a big heart on it. I got dressed and put my legs into a black Air Max and told Christiana that I am off to somewhere. I grabbed my phone, my headphones and my purse and hurried to the airport. I even forgot that I could have taken one of the cars in Christiana's house.

By the time I realised that, I was 30 minutes away from home. So I boarded a cab, the guy looked really suspicious. He had piercings and tattoos and he was smoking. Who smokes in a cab? Due to time, I jumped into the back seat and used my seat belt. So after he drove for about 15 minutes, we neared the airport, and I wanted to. walk, and so I asked for the driver to stop the cab so that I'll pay and leave. And he kept on complementing me. Just when I was gonna get out of the cab, he locked it and came to sit beside me. He came from the driver seat to the back. I thought of Cobby and the fact that today was our birthday and that I didn't have time to deal with the kind of bullshit the driver was putting up. With all those thoughts running through my head, I punched the driver so hard with all the rage and anger I had within me, he bled and I used the opportunity to unlock the door and stepped out. " I won't even pay you, you don't deserve it anyways!" He put his finger at the side of the door and since I\ was angry, I closed the door, on his finger. oops! My bad..

As a legacy I would have liked him to remember ao so as not to hurt any other girl, I showed him the middle finger and walked off. The airport was about a 15 minute walk from where I got dropped off from. He helped me at least, but he also tried to molest me. Feeling so depressed and frustrated, I switched to the available souce of company, MUSIC! I put my headset on and switched to music. I pressed the song locked away. It calmed me down till I got to the airport.

Jumpman, jumpman, jumpman Cobby's up to something whoosh!
