(5) missed calls from E. ( 12:00 | 27th October 2017 )
Elliot stared at his screen. He was scared for Noelle. It wasn't normal for him. He never cared for anything and now there he was, sitting at the edge of his charcoal black bed, a color Noelle told him about , thinking of what there was he could possibly do for the girl he only has talked to.
It was wierd, really. How was it possible to think about someone all the time, when you had never seen them? How was it possible for him to think of Noelle as the most beautiful girl on this planet when he had only heard her voice.
Her voice. Her voice was like a bird singing melodious songs with rhythm. It was something he would never get tired of. It was something he would use as his Alarm , his ringtone. It was beautiful.
During all those days, Elliot wondered how she looked like. She had already told him she was short. Elliot smiled when she thought that it was bad to have a short height. He thought it was cute.
She once asked him "Is it bad that I don't know where am I going with life? " Elliot answered her truthfully because he too had been in the same situation. That was when his asshole of a father left him.
His father left for money. He chose fucking money over his 13 years old son and a loving wife. It had been 7 years since he had heard from him. Not that he wanted to. But when he left, Elliot thought there was nothing left for him. He used to feel worthless and cried himself to sleep for years.
He got better eventually. Ofcource, time heals eveyrthing but the Mega-watt, heart stopping smile never returned untill he talked to Noelle.
She made him happier than anyone in this world. Except for his mother, that is.
He wished to see her. Someday , sometime. But only if she was smiling. He didn't want to see her without a smile etched on her gorgeous face.
