When you live with your strict parents, things can be quite tough. You have to behave like a good girl. You have to get permission and give every details of your friends before hanging out with them. You have to come back home before 7:00 because it is more dangerous at night. You can only use electronic devices for one hour per day. Because you should do something more meaning than to waste your time in virtual world. And if you try very hard to break the rules , you will end up staying home for whole week or your phone will be collected.
Usually I will not risk it unless there’s something really urgent. But in the coming weekend, it will be no risk at all even if I break every single rules. The good new is my parents will go for a trip in Greek to celebrate their 10-years marriage. I am going to enjoy my freedom. Not a prisoner anymore. And the bad new is they will send my obnoxious cousin Violet to has an eye on me. We never really like each other and I am sure that we will never get along in the future. But anyway, we have had a deal before. I will give her some money while she will cast me aside and turn a blind eye to me. Fair deal.
Sat 2:00 a.m.
“What are you looking at ? Your Mr Scenery again?” Violet asked with a teasing smile. I can’t help myself but blushed every time when I hearing my crush’s nickname. He is popular in the school. Most of the time he is surrounded by pretty girls. What I can do is simply looking at him from a distance and wishing one day I will have a chance to speak with him.
“I am sorry but I have finishing read your diary.” Violet says in the right and self-confident as if she did nothing wrong. I am definitely sure that she don’t feel sorry. She never apologize or hesitate for what she has done. And I can’t do nothing to deal with her. That’s one of the reasons I hate about her.
I try to change the subject. “ No, it is an Instagram page called I Know Exactly Who You Are. The page owner claims that he is a trained psychic and can read people mind and “
“I’ve seen it before. “ Violet cut me short before I can finish my sentence. She continue to paint her fingernails without raising her head. “It is simply a business trick. Those posts are fake. It is all about profit earning. After gaining a bunch of followers, the Instagram page will be sold to a company. My little Helen, don’t tell me you believe such stupid trick.“
“But maybe superpower does exist in the world!” I insists.
“Maybe fairy-tale does exist too! One day you daydream will come true and you can live with your Mr whatever his name happily ever after! “ Violet replies sarcastically. Another reason why I dislike her. Always pretends to be mature. As a matter of fact, I am fourteen years old and she is only two years older than me. I bite my lips and speak nothing. I just don’t want to talk to someone who is lack of sense of imagination.
“Prove it to me then?” Violet looks at me provokingly. I sight. She will not give up any chance to defeat me. I can see that she is eager to enjoy the sense of victory. “You will get no response. I dare say.” After dropping her words, she bangs the door and whistles on her way to bathroom.
I don’t want to be defeated without fighting back. So I have a quick look on the rules.
1. Follow me.
2. Shout me out. ( I’ll check” )
3. DM me a question and Wait until I DM back you.
No difficult for Rule 1 and Rule 2, I murmur to myself. For the Rule 3, I think for a while and enter the question: Who is my crush? After all, it does no harm if I hear my crush ‘s name from a stranger’s mouth.
Thirty minutes later, I hear the Instagram notification sound. My heart skip a beat. And it is come from I Know Exactly Who You Are! I am overwhelmed by excited. I click the little message box and open it in no time.
It is a video of Violet in bedroom. Behind her is a man with a sharp knife, trying to approach her.
