The eyes of fate.

Chapter #4

After waving Jason a goodbye I slammed the front door behind me, making my way outside in the beautiful city of New York. Man I sure love this place !

As I walked I couldn’t help but think about Justin, for some reason I missed him and what has it been like? A week since I spoke to him?

‘Seriously Nicole ! STOP'. I mentally scolded myself ,shoving my thoughts away.

But when you really gave it a thought, it was becoming a habit and I had to stop before it became too late. I would never get to meet him, this couldn’t possibly go on forever, us chatting all the time I mean. Who knows how long this all would go on? Who knows how long we would stay in touch? What if I just lost all connection with him? My heart sank inside my chest as the thoughts kept thinking itself in my mind.

Before I knew it, I had reached and my hands started searching itself in my pocket for the keys. My mom would probably be at home at this time of the day but in any case I didn’t want to disturb her. I always carried a spare in case of emergencies.

On finally getting the key out I shoved it into the door  knob and got inside. I could hear Lily’s footsteps as she clumsily made her way towards me. “Hey cutie” I bend down lifting her in my arms.

“Nicole your finally home !” I heard my mom’s voice as she made her way towards me.

“Yeah. And your all dressed up.. Are you going out?” I inquired with a questioning look.

“Yeah I am, I’m so sorry honey ! I know I’m telling you all this last minute but I tried calling you and then I realized you forgot to take your phone.. so I couldn’t get in any contact with you and this is really important to me because I’ve been called for a interview with New York’s top fashion designing industry and I wanted to give myself a chance again” She said finally letting out a breath.

“Mom chill. Its no big deal and WOW New York’s top fashion designing industry? That’s just great ! You can’t let opportunities like that go in waste just because of us.. I want you to do this.. Do something for yourself for once !” I said piercing my eyes into hers. I had clearly inherited my mom’s genes.

“Thanks Nicole ! I wouldn’t be able to do this without your support.” Mom said giving me a quick kiss on the cheek.

“Yeah.  Now go or you’ll be late !” I pushed her outside giving her a thumps up. I knew she could do this, she was my mom after all. She smiled returning my thumps up and waving me a goodbye.

“So Lily its just you and me now I guess” I put her down gently as the words escaped my lips. She giggled as I waved her a goodbye heading up the stairs. I had to seriously get out of those jeans, they were killing me !

On coming down, I went to check on Lily and saw that she was fast asleep. I mouthed an ‘aww’ looking at her peaceful face. Gently carrying her up the stairs, I placed her on the cot and went back into my room. Sometimes I wish I was three.. and worry free.

The weekend ends so fast when your having fun. Can’t believe school’s tomorrow ! It still feels like Friday. Good thing I don’t have any homework ‘cause I wouldn’t do it anyways and I can’t afford to get detention one more time.

I switched on my pc and logged myself as online on secret-chat. I wanted to talk to that idiot so badly !

secretidentity- Hey stranger !

mynameis931O- I’m sorry Justin. I was just so busy this week that I barely had any time for myself. I was at Jason’s yesterday so I couldn’t really talk to you.
