"Celia, go to the back room" Mr. Witte ordered.
"What!? Why!?" I demanded.
"Don't argue, just go" he said. I grit my teeth and left, slamming the door behind me. I sat there until class ended, bored and anxious. Mr. Witte came back with an expressionless little girl. She was beautiful. She had velvety red hair that touched her shoulders in tight, springy curls, and smooth brown skin that reminded me of Pocahontas. Her face was so innocent and her lips were perfectly filled, glossed with pink lip gloss. Her eyes were green, and her eyelashes were long like a doll's. Her figure was amazing, she was skinny and had small curves, and her skin looked so smooth! She wore a short pink dress with a red ribbon wrapping around her waist and clean white stockings. Her shoes were black and squeaky clean, very shiny.
"Woah..." I whispered, slightly intimidated by her. Suddenly a warm smile appeared on her face as she ran to me and gave me a hug.
"Celia!" She exclaimed happily. She nuzzled my neck, getting close to my ear before whispering; "I'm Rosemary, just play along so I can take you home, and call me Rosa so Daniel doesn't recognize me, my disguise might not be enough".
"Oh, Rosa! I barely recognized you! You look so cute" I laughed. Obviously she was playing the friend card, so I had to act friendly too so I could get the hell outta here! Luckily she's here to help me, otherwise I'd be pretty scared, considering how quick she can find information on people.
"I came to get you! Mom and dad are out on a business trip, so it's just me and my stupid nanny, and I'm so bored! Celia, come home with me pleaseee" she begged. I chuckled and nodded.
"I've wanted to see you again for a long time, I'd be more than happy to visit!" I exclaimed excitedly.
"Celia, do you know this girl?" Mr. Witte asked. I nodded with a smile.
"Yeah! She's my best friend!" I smiled. He looked taken aback by my sudden happiness, but brushed it off.
"You have to speak with Daniel about leaving before you can promise her that you'll visit, I don't know what he'll say" he said. I made a dissapointed face, looking at Rosemary hopeful.
"It'll be ok, he has to let me go, I've never asked to leave before!" I reassured.
"I wanna go too!" She exclaimed. I pat her head, careful not to mess up her hair (she'd probably bite my hand off if I did).
"Alright, but let me do the talking" I said. She nodded and I took her to my dormroom.
"Daniel!" I shouted happily, storming into my dorm with Rosemary excitedly. "Daniel, have I ever told you that I love you?" I said.
"Celia what do you want? And who is this?" He asked, suspicious.
"Pssh, what are you talking about?" I asked, batting my hand playing dumb, but stopped when he arched a brow at me.
"This is my best friend, Rosa! Her and her nanny invited me to come home with them, and I really want to, but Mr. Witte said that I have to ask you for permission to leave before I can promise her that I'll be able to go" I explained. "Oh please Daniel! Please let me go! I'll be good! I'll do my homework, and I'll study, and I'll even say good things about you while I'm gone just please let me go!" I begged. He sighed and put his hand up to shut me up.
"You said her name is Rosa, right?" He asked. I nodded in response.
"Rosa, did you happen to know another girl named Maya?" He asked Rosemary. Her eyes widened, but she quickly shook her head and hid behind me. "I must be imagining it then..." he mumbled. Suddenly I felt nervous. I've never seen Rosemary in person until now, so I have no idea how good her disguise is, what if she just put on makeup and a new dress and called that a disguise! If Daniel recognizes her, it's all over!!!
"Can you talk?" He asked. Damn it! What if he recognizes her voice!? Aaah!!!
Rosemary shook her head and clung to me protectively, looking up at me.
"S-sorry Daniel, she can talk but she's really shy" I said, trying to make things quick. He nodded and sighed.
"Fine, you can go, but Celia do your homework. And Rosa..." he started. Rosemary looked up at him nervously.
"Have fun" he said with a smile. Rosemary smiled and nodded, pulling me out the room quickly.
"Wait I need my bag!" I said.
"Fine, I'll wait for you outside your dorm. Be quick, I don't want him to recognize me!" She said. I nodded and went back.
"Sorry Daniel, she rushed me out but I needed to come back to pack a few things" I said, quickly stuffing my bag with my homework, doll, cloths, toothbrush, my phone, my charger, headphones, and other things. Before he could say anything, I ran for the door, but he grabbed my arm and looked me in the eye before I left.
"Daniel, I have to go" I said, peeling my arm from his grip before rushing out. Rosemary took me outside and led me to a limousine. I gave her a weird look before going inside uncomfortably.
"I'm not a cliche rich girl, my mom rented this car for a while and she let my dad use it to pick me up. You don't have to look at me like I'm a snobby girl. I'm not mean, and I don't dislike you either...I just don't like you that much" she said as she sat next to me.
"I never said-" she cut me off.
"I know you were thinking it. Just because I'm a bit more privelaged doesn't mean I'm spoiled or snobby, I get disciplined and punished too, and I'm a nice person...Maya told me so herself" she said, looking down at her hands.
"I'm sorry that Maya ended up like that...but it's not my fault" I said.
"I'm know...I'm sorry, I just miss her so much" she said, squeezing her eyes so she wouldn't cry. I wanted to comfort her, but I knew that there was nothing I could say or do to make her feel better. She loved Maya, and Maya loved her back. She was willing to let Maya go, knowing she'd never see her again, just so she could help me, and now, even after she's gone, she's still doing her part to help me despite what happened. This girl truly is kind, and even though she's mad, she overcame it to complete the mission Maya couldn't do alone.
"Thank you...you truly are kind, and I really don't deserve it" I said.
"You don't, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna just abandon you. I'm not a monster" she mumbled.
"Thanks"
"Shut up" she said. "This disguise is getting really uncomfortable. Hand me the mirror next to you" she said, pointing. I nodded and passed it to her. She held it and removed a pair of contact lenses from her eyes, revealing a pair of oddly colored eyes. Her right eye was a silvery grey color, while the left one was an icy blue color. She grabbed her curly red hair and pulled it, revealing it to be a wig. Her natural hair was long and velvety, touching her waistline with gentle waves. She grabbed a wipe from a small drawer and wiped off her makeup, throwing the wipe away into a black garbage bag in the corner. When she turned and looked at me, she looked absolutely stunning! I was breathless when I looked at her. "What?" She asked.
"Nothing...you just look really different" I said.
"I just changed my hair and eyes. My face was the same, just had makeup to look younger" she said, putting the mirror away. She grabbed a hairbrush and a black thing from the drawer and brushed her hair to the side. When she looked at me again, I noticed she put an eyepatch over her silver eye.
"Why'd you cover it?" I asked.
"It's glass. I don't see any need in showing it" she responded.
"It was really pretty" I said quietly. She looked away and didn't respond. The ride was really awkward, and it felt like an eternity before we got to her house. For some reason I was scared I'd see a huge mansion or something, but luckily I saw something less...grand. It was a large house with a lovely garden, and the flowers smelled so pretty. I looked at the house, admiring it's beauty. It was amazing.
