The name's louis tomlinson, and i got your phone. i fished it in your dirty bag. see you in the streets, veronica. love always, louis. x

What the hell? I quickly ran out of the coffee shop and looked for a man covered in stripes and a black jeans, running block to block until I drained my energy looking for that asshole who took my phone! I am a retard, why did I even leave my bag on the table with a fucking stranger. I walked and searched for that thief- I mean Louis and finally found him sitting inside a milkshake parlor. I stormed in and slapped the shit out of him. Some of the people looked at us and obviously I am making a god damn scene, but I really need to get my phone back. "Give me my phone, you dick." I said to him with steady eyes, but he just shrugs my looks away. "Louis fucking tomlinson give me my god damn fucking phone!" I yelled at him and didn't even react or something, he just chuckled his ass again and looked at me, "Veronica, no 's'. just clean Louis. yea?" He said while walking away from the store with a milkshake.

I followed him and spilled his milkshake purposely on his shirt. now I know something about him! spill a milkshake, and he'll pay attention. Damn he looked angry but I'm not gonna shrink with this guy. "Now give me my phone." He stood up, looking at his shirt with milkshake and moved his eyes on me. He grabs my phone on his pocket and left me. He looks pissed! So damn pissed. I went back to Theresa Mae's hoping that my cheesecake is still a perfect slice with all of its crumbs but I was wrong. Man I just want to read a god damn book and sip coffee and eat cheesecake, is it too much to ask? I looked at my phone and Louis' name appeared on my lock screen. What? Great, he fucking saved his number. I should have a passcode or something next time. Why didn't I think of that? I swiped it open and read his message:

The milkshake is sticky, and you made me mad. i'll get even with you tomorrow, love. x

Is he a maniac or something? Is he a stalker? Does he know where I live? This man, I swear! It's slowly getting on my nerves! I went back home and quickly ran upstairs to my bedroom. This is summer. Why would I have this shit on my summer? And why the fuck does he call me 'love'? I got tired thinking too much of this issue so I decided to take a quick shower and jump into my pj's. Mom yelled that it's dinner time already so I went down and head to the living room.

"Anything interesting events today, V?" Mom asked. I filled my plate with mashed potato and a chicken. I ate my food and didn't bother to answer mom. "Sooooo. I read a very interesting story earlier." She stated. She works in a publishing house, for pete's sake. Of course she read stories. She's just lazy today so she worked at home. "Mom, you always read very interesting stories everyday." I said, stuffing some mashed potatoes in my mouth. "Oh, hun. This one has love making in it and they fu-" I choked as mom said those words. I reached for my water and drank quickly, making me choke more. "Oh god, Jesus, V are you okay?" She nervously asked. "OH MY GOD mom please stop don't talk about those stories here gosh we're eating!" I looked at her with eyes wide open. "Oh c'mon dear I know you read some stuff like that also," I slipped a small smile because I know that it's true. "Okay mom, okay. Let's just eat alright?" And We ate. We have this kind of large house that has two people (me and my mom) and we are like lonely ghosts here. I have no father that I envy Luke Skywalker so much because he has Darth Vader as his dad. Grandma said that i'm just a mistake but I'm glad mom didn't think of me as grandma did.

I think mom's dating the accountant guy on her work place, tho. I'm glad for her that she's not lonely as fuck. I, on the other hand, is a girl who wants to spend her summer in venice beach but couldn't make it there because her mom's working far from california. I'm stuck here, with my books, a TV, a phone, the internet, and that goddamn Louis Tomlinson punk that stole my phone! I'm gonna put a passcode on it from now on then.

As we finished dinner, I piled up our plates on the dishwasher and joined mom on the couch watching the community. Childish gambino is one of the cast here and I enjoy his music quite much. I have, like, two albums and one EP of him on my phone or something like that. "Oh my god are they playing the lava game?" I asked mom.

"Yep."

"I've watched this before mom. Gambino will leave there." She lightly pushed me on my shoulder and whined. "Oh c'mon V I haven't watched this before!" She just whined and whined and I just left her there in the couch. "Mom I'm going upstairs, okay." "Ok hun." I climbed on my bed and grabbed my laptop from my desk. I quickly checked my facebook and logged out. I opened another tab and opened twitter. I also logged out from it because im not an interesting person. No one probably follows me there. I just searched for guitar chords and saved some. This night is not what I'm expecting to be, I thought that I'll be up all night or some shit. But I'm freakishly sleepy right now. I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face, and suddenly my phone rang. I went back to my room, jumping to my bed and searching for my phone. Damn missed call. Damn a missed call for that louis! The phone rang again and with 100% doubt I answered it.

"Hello?" Yep, that's the Louis boy. "Hey. You thief!" I half joked. "You spilled milkshake on my shirt, just so you know." He answered back. "You purposely stole my phone, you dick!" I snap. God sooner or later i'll punch him on the face, he's such a dick. "Won't you kiss me goodnight, love?" He said and chuckled on the other line. "Wait, wha-" I'm interrupted by the voice on the other line. I think it's his mom. "Louis, are you talking to a girl over the phone?" His mom it is. He totally forgot about the fact that I'm on the other line. "Mum! Please stop, oh c'mon.. Mum it's just my friend! No we are not together! Mum she's not kissing me goodnight it's just a joke!" He literally forgot about me. And oh my god his mom thought that I'm really gonna kiss her son goodnight? I chuckled a bit and thought, I would die first before I kiss him goodnight! Haha! I noticed that no one was speaking on the other line now, but I heard louis sighed. "Geez, mum is annoying, god. Oh wait, uhm Veronica, yes? Are you still here?" He asked. "Wow I thought you forgot about me!" I said. "Uhm.. uh.. mom, is.. mum's just joking.. you know..uhm. yeah.." He can't find any words to say and then the awkward silence came in. He doesn't sound too tough after his mom talking about his sick joke. "So that's your mom?" I asked. Quite a dumb question to ask but it's really awkward. "Uhm yeah, she is. my.. uhm. mum.. yeah." "If you don't have shit to say im hanging up!" I said and I drag my phone away from my ears to end the call. "Wait um-" He said but I already pressed the 'end'. I texted him after the call, sending the words 'FUCKING AWKAWRD SILENCE' caps on. after that I clicked my lamp off and snuggled my way to sleep.
