 It's 4 o'clock when my phone starts ringing.

It's my mum who probably noticed I wasn't in my bedroom.

- What's up?

- FRANK! WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?

- Calm down! I'm at Jimmy's! We were planning to go on a hiking today, so I woke up soon to arrive in time. Stop, freaking out.

- Did you wake up early, Frank? I'm so proud of you! You're finally doing something good with your life. I always thought Jimmy was a good influence and I was right (as usual). Anyway... Have fun with Jimmy. Send him a hug for me. Try not to get hurt.

- When will you stop treating me that way?

- I only called to check out if everything was alright. You usually stay in bed the whole morning, not the whole afternoon.

- Okay. Bye.

Making up a hiking was the best idea ever.

No one noticed I am awake. Jimmy probably doesn't even know I spent the night in this house and Whitney may be downstairs. I better get up. I need to take a shower, otherwise nobody will want to stay close to me in the next few minutes.

I'm passing in front of Jimmy's bedroom when I notice he is staring at me.

I think I need to give him some improvised explanations.

- What were you doing in my sister's bedroom?

- She asked me to pass by this afternoon.

I don't think he's mad.

- Are you getting along with her?

- I think she is a great girl and we can become good friends. – It's true.

- What about your girlfriend? - I didn't think about that.

- Whitney is my friend. That's it. I can be dating and be friend of her at the same time. Friendship between boys and girls also exists.

My fellow is trying to understand what is wrong with this situation.

- Okay. Is she really into you?

- We talked about it and I was clear when I said she was more like a sister to me.

- I'm glad you two are getting along and maybe you'll become my brother in law someday. – played Jimmy.

- I didn't tell you something my friend.

I should have used other words because his expression completely changed:

- What's going on Frank?

- I think I'm single.

- You think you are single?

- I'm not sure.

Mr. Way knows something isn't right.

- You know what I feel about Melissa. She reminds me an octopus: you are not allowed to do anything by your own. She grabs you with her tentacles and you can't get rid of her. If you want to talk to me about what happened, you can do it.

- Thanks buddy. It's funny the way you make me feel better.

- I always told you she wasn't a girl for you.

- I guess you were right...

Whitney is in the kitchen trying to keep her mind busy.

- Frank, I'm glad you woke up.

- I was pretty sleepy.

- Don't worry about that.

- I think we should talk about what we're going to do next.

My sister pulls a chair and invites me to do the same.

- If it wasn't for Jimmy's safety I would report what is going on here.

- I think I had an idea that may work.

- What's your plan Frank?

- I'll go to the police station and I'll tell them everything from the beginning.

I don't think she thought this was a good plan.

- What about my brother?

- The guy doesn't know that I exist. Besides, my car isn't by the door, so if I leave through the back yard, he will not see me getting in it. I think we don't have any other option. It's the only way to protect you both without taking any risks.

- If you think it is going to work...

- I'm sure it will.

Whitney gave me the note.

Jimmy said goodbye to me in his own way.

- So fellow, when will you come to bug us again?

- I promise I'll be back soon.

- I don't trust you.

- Why not? – I pretended to be shocked.

- You barely come here.

- I promise I'll be back pall.

- If it's not for me, at least for your borrowed sister.

- I will be back.

The street is desert.

The noiseless of this place reminds me Woodsboro.

I'm walking down the street when I feel someone is following me.

I don't see anyone behind me, however I'm can feel I'm not alone.

The car is still in the same place.

I unlock the doors and as soon as I get in, someone grabs my shoulder.

I was expecting to see a giant man, although It's just Melissa having a break down.

- I may be stupid but even you can't trick me. You are with the other chick. I always knew it. I wish I had dumped you earlier.

- Calm down. I think you need to sit...

- Don't tell me what to do!

- You are making a scene!

If she didn't stop crying, Jinx would find out I'm in the area.

- Whitney stole you from me!

- Stop yelling, otherwise I'll have to shut you up!

- You don't got the guts.

- That's it! I'm sick of you! I can't stand your meaningless cries anymore! Whatever our relationship is, it's not worth it!

I don't even give her a chance to reply.

The most important right now is safety.

The police station is 9 miles away from here, so I think I can get there in 10 minutes if another celebrity martyr doesn't show up by my side, which can be unfortunately terrible, since the guy who has stalked Whitney is a criminal.
