31st October 2014.
Tristan sent me back home right at the time the clock struck at 12am. He couldn't stop bragging about how happy he was after I told him he could call me sweetheart or something as he wanted to while I just called him like I usually did.
Because I felt...strange if I called him that.
I didn't see any presence of my mom as soon as I got into the house. She was probably still working.
Running up into my room and closed the door behind me then flopped onto my bed with my face slumped into my pillow.
What have I done??
Should I tell my friends about this?
No, no, no. I should let them know later. Or sooner.
I had to handle this all by myself. I didn't want to burden my friends just because of this. This was a minor thing. I could handle it.
So much of a minor thing when you played around with someone's feelings.
I sighed.
What should I do now?
I turned around and laid my back down on the bed, staring blankly on the ceiling.
My phone unexpectedly dinged inside of my pocket. I took it out and saw three text messages from Tristan and the other ten from a group chat of me, Zyana, Emily, Jules and Bethany.
I read Tristan's text messages first.
[Fri, 31/10/2014. 00:15] : Let's dress up as Romeo and Juliet tomorrow. At midnight. We're going to Danny's party.
[Fri, 31/10/2014. 00:16] : Since you're locked up in your bedroom and I had to save my Juliet. So that we can have fun and live happily ever after.
[Fri, 31/10/2014. 00:29] : I bet, you'll look pretty.
To my surprise, I grinned in all of a sudden.
But then it faded when the thought of my plan passed by.
The thought of being with him for one day. One day full of affections.
I couldn't predict what would be the outcomes.
Nothing in the future was predictable for me.
It was kind of complicated.
I shook my head, to brush off the thoughts and read my girl friends' text messages.
[Thu, 30/10/2014. 23:49] Zyana: Fashion police emergency call! Danny's throwing a party tomorrow. So what are we going to wear?
[Thu, 30/10/2014. 23:51] Emily: I just go with something like an agent or spy. Like, black suit.
[Thu, 30/10/2014. 23:51] Jules: I'll dress up as Regina George. Not in her Halloween costume or Christmas dress. Just blond wig, pink cardigan and navy blue A-line skirt.
[Thu, 30/10/2014. 23:53] Bethany: I'll be Brookly Beckham's girlfriend. Which I already am.
[Thu, 30/10/2014. 23:53] Jules: LOL. Gosh, please. I believe you stole my husband.
[Thu, 30/10/2014. 23:54] Zyana: Keep on dreaming, you both. He's mine.
[Thu, 30/10/2014. 23:54] Emily: You guys are dreaming. Get over it.
[Thu, 30/10/2014. 23:55] Jules: I wonder what Gwen would wear tomorrow night.
[Thu, 30/10/2014. 23:55] Bethany: Yeah. Where is she actually?
