Zalfie Stalker

Chapter 3- The lie

Sapphires point of view
Today is the day. It's 8:30 Am. I'm up. Fingers crossed I will be seeing Alfie again today. I must look good just in case. Hair done. Makeup done. All clothes on. I'm ready.
" Mum I am leaving now."
" Without breakfast? Got to be somewhere?"
"Just going to see Maisie that's all. I am spending the day with her, she is making breakfast for me."
"Ok dear, bye then. Text me."
I hate lying to people. It's horrible. I see my mums face as I leave and guilt flushes over. I hope that I won't have to do too much lying to get away with it. I decide that I will make sure I text her later.
When I arrive at the bus station my heart is beating fast. This is so out of character for me, I am lost. What if something goes wrong? I would call mum and she would know. I would have to tell her everything if she knew I was here. A sudden wave of panic comes over me as the bus shows up. This is it. No turning back.
I step on the bus and hope for the best....
