Valerie Monroe, daughter of Kendall Monroe, had a perfect life. She had everything she wanted. Before starting her university, she only wanted to have a part-time job experience. Hence, she decided to give an interview in a detecti...
I got up pretty early so I decided to go out for a walk. I wanted to clear my mind off of some things. And going on walks mostly helps me. I quickly got changed and tied my hair in a high pony. I grabbed my phone and earphones and wore my shoes before heading downstairs.
Surprisingly, nobody in my family was up. I left a note in the kitchen counter saying I'm out for a walk just in case mom wakes up before I come back and starts freaking out.
I headed towards the park near my home. I was busy using my phone while running that I din't even notice the person who was running in front of me stopped and I bumped into him and fell.
"I am soo sorry! I should've watched where I was running!" I said standing up and straightening myself.
"Its fine. Are you okay?" He says eyeing me.
"Yeah" I reply softly.
"Ryan!" I heard a familiar voice shout.
I turned to face the owner of that voice.
"Blaire?" I ask confused. I thought she was staying with her grandparents for a while.
"Oh.. Hey Valerie" Blaire greets as she walks towards us.
"And I assume you're Ryan?" I ask facing the guy I bumped into.
"Yup!" Ryan replied flashing a smile.
"Okay.. I need to go someplace so see you later.." I say softly.
"Sure! Bye Valerie!" Blaire said a little too loud.
"Nice to meet you, Valerie" Ryan said emphasizing my name. It kind of felt strange. I don't know why but I just had this strange feeling inside me when he pronounced my name.
I smiled and said goodbye and started walking away.

I walked upstairs towards my bedroom but made a pit stop outside Seb's room where both my brothers were playing on their Xbox. I smiled watching them play their game with so much dedication. I, then walked to my room and locked it. I quickly went to take a shower because I was feeling disgusted from the sweat. I changed into a simple full sleeved grey top that showed a bit of my tummy and black tights. I blow dried my hair and left them open.

After being all dressed up and I did a bit of makeup and sat at the corner of my bed with my laptop. I surfed through twitter for a while until my phone buzzed. Checking the message, it was from Nathan, saying he was outside my house. I quickly grabbed the my bag and phone and wore my sunglasses. I then ran and grabbed the first pair of black shoes I could find and ran down and out the door.
