Smirks & Glares [On Hold]

#8, And We Meet Again

"You have to take this up Cara!" Sarah pleads me.

I rub my temples in annoyance. "I told you Sarah, it's not in my hands to take up anything. I am assigned the work from IM for the time being." 

"Please! Can't you convince her?" She throws up her hands.

"I don't know, I will have to talk to her." I bite my lip thinking about it.

"Who's wedding did you say again?" I sit in the office chair and rotate it around.

"Ryan Stone and Mae Waters." Sarah says with a soft smile and a far away look in her eyes.

I stop whirling around and scrutinize her expression carefully. 

"Seems like you know these people very well." I say.

She looks at me and nods her head once with a laugh. "Yes I do, but at the same time I do not."

I look at her confused, "what do you mean ninja?" 

She glares at me, "I am not a ninja." Her smile comes back on, "it's a long story and a funny story. I do not know them personally very well but I know them through someone else." 

I nod my head slowly. 

"It's actually him who wants to arrange their wedding, so I recommended you to him." She explains.

"Him?" I smirk at her.

Sarah rolls her eyes, "no it's not like that, he's like my brother." 

"Wae?" I pout. 

"What why? He is actually like a brother. You remember I once told you I brother zoned a guy during school? He is the one."

"Ahhh" I raise my eyebrow licking the side of my lip. "I see. What was his name? Something from 'A' I think, Aron?"

"No not Aron, it's Asher." She says and I feel a weird jolt in my stomach.

"It's Asher"

I feel like I have heard this before? Have I? Have I not? 

whatever.

I hear my phone ringing from somewhere. I check my pockets but it was not there.

Why does it disappear so easily?

I search under my books and files but it was no where to be seen. Sarah lifts up my bed covers and I see it there, but its not alone.

"Sarah?" I whisper.

"Y-yeah?" She says keeping her eyes strained on it. 

"Can you get rid of it?" I whisper biting my lip.

"W-what? M-me?" She stutters wide eyed, her tough girl exterior gone.

"Can you get the lizard off my phone?" I squeak speaking as it moves an inch and gets on the phone.

"No." She too whispers staring at it cautiously.

Inner peace

Inner peace

Inner peace

I take deep breaths. "MATT!" I scream.

He comes up in a few moments, "what? What happened?" 

I point at it still taking deep breaths.

"Oh Monster! I was finding him everywhere!" He runs to it at once at keeps it on his shoulder.
