Katherine's p.o.v
Early today. I would gladly like to congratulate myself. Obviously after the last 'detention' there was no scope left for me to not be early. I should call H, to tell him that i have reached early today and he need not bother picking me up. But yeah phone dead. So I decided to find Zara. She seemed so good and well I need to make friends here to survive.
' Well if it isn't our wonder woman, helping us escape from the god of torture and detention.'
' You should be kissing my feet right now. ' I told Justin and winked at Zara.
' I think we all are here early because we don't want to go through those dark hours again. Look, everyone is here from yesterday except..'
' Liam ' Justin completed for Zara. He said his name with so much hatred like he has murdered his family or something.
Anyways Liam has this 'I rule here' image to live up to. Therefore he won't show up any sooner.
" I hope you got to the hostel safely yesterday. You know there are crazy rumors about those forests. Justin should have dropped you. He is such an ass. " Zara exclaimed to change the topic I guess.
" I am here and alive. It is not his fault. I insisted. He was very determined on dropping me but you know for once I needed to get that independent feeling. If you know what I mean." I said
" oh yeah definitely." Zara said to me with a sarcastic smile and looked at Justin to give him a 'she is out of her mind look.'
It made me laugh and I continued, " you know what is really crazy. That I don't remember reaching back to my hostel or walking through the woods. I just happen to magically wake up in my dorm today morning. What I remember is that my phone was brok.." I paused for a second, " Damn it. I need to get it fixed. You guys know any place?"
"Oh sure. We can go after 3 o'clock. He sits till 3pm only. Maybe we can bunk the last class. It won't do any good." Zara said with a wink. God, Zara was really the troublemaker but I liked her for that. She is what is going to make this college journey a hell of a ride.
I gave her a thumbs up and looked at Justin for a nod. He nodded his head for a 'no' and gave me a 'Zara is out of her mind ' whisper.
I chuckled and whispered an 'ok' because I knew he would not miss any class knowing the kind of tech savy he is. I would not miss it myself but since my phone is a part of my existence, I knew I had to get it fixed today itself.

" Good then. Me and Kat will see you tomorrow. And Kat, meet me near the entrance no. 2 that is near to the garbage mountain. No one will ever notice us getting out of there because no one actually prefers to use that entrance except the janitors who lunch at that time. And be on time please."
" Wow Zar. I am impressed. Just one day gone by and you have already made  your escape plans ready. I will be there. Thank you"
-----------------------
It was already 2:55pm. And this was the only class which I did not have with H. But luckily, I have Justin in it as my angel but Liam representing the devil. He can pass me through this boring mechanics lecture.
The professor had already extended the lecture for half and hour. I could not bear this any longer
"Class dismissed. "
Those two words were the words that reincarnated me.
I hurriedly packed my bag and started rushing for the door.
Bam.
Not again. And I fell onto someone this time. Please don't be Liam. Please don't be Liam. All though, us bumping into each other was kinda... Stop right there. I opened my eyes to see who it was. And immediately I saw eyes which gave me a deja vu. I have seen those eyes before. Looked deep into them.
" Nice habit of bumping into people kelly." Liam smirked at me and walked away.
The person coughed and realizing about the environment, I got up.
Relieved to see it was Justin.
" Hey, just wanted to remind you about the phone thing. Those janitors get back to work at 3:10 pm sharp. You should hurry. " Justin told me .
" Thanks for your advice. Catch up with you later." I ran, noticing that everyones eyes were on us.
-----------------—------------------

I reached the meeting point at 3:05pm sharp. But I could not find Zar anywhere. Maybe she got caught up in something like I did. I waited for another 35 minutes. She did not show up. Since I was late now, and could not bear another detention. I just decided to call H to hang out.
Shit. I could not do it without a phone. So I started walking towards the locker room in the hopes of finding girls gossiping about the college and use their phones to an advantage.
As I approached the locker room, I saw a person sitting on the bench near the room, life less. Maybe he could help.
As I came near the bench just to realize it was Liam.
No use, he won't help me. But I guess it was too late. He noticed me coming towards him and shouted, " Are you following me, Kenny?"
This was the second time in a day that he called me by some random name.
" Lucy. You really are not worth my time. And by the way its Katherine. Should I spell it for you or do you need any extra lessons for boosting your memory?" I said in a sarcastic tone to have a greater impact.
" Well I am really not interested okay. Whatever you want consider it not done because Lucy" he stressed on the name and took small steps towards me ultimately forcing me to be back to back with a wall and just keeping his face an inch apart to intimidate me        " does not help anyone." 
Damn it. He was so close that for a minute I actually got intimidated and could not get words out of my mouth even though I wanted to lash out at him.
I gathered myself and due to the urgency spoke in the most polite manner "  Sir Liam, I really need to make a call as you remember my phone breaking because of " I paused for a moment to see his serious yet devious and sadist expressions and continued with a deeper voice and smile, " Me. So if you don't mind can you do me a favor by letting me use your phone and backing the hell away from me. "
I pushed him a little hoping to make his fixated look on me to wander about and him getting a lesson on not to be that close to me again.
" Let me think. The last part, not polite at all. But being the gentleman I am, here just one call, 2 minutes. I don't like wasting time and money on people who have habits like bumping into people or being CARELESS. "
I took his phone from his hand, and gave the most vague smile to him and went away to get a little privacy while I dialed H's no. I dis remember it by heart. He was my boyfriend after all.

I called five times but he did not pick up.  At last, I gave up and I knew that smirking ass would be enjoying seeing me in pain right now. As soon as I turned to give him his phone, I saw he was all tensed up. His body was as rigid as a stone and he did not move a bit. It seemed like he was lifeless. His face expression was like when someone gets 'hulk' type angry and his eyes were tight shut. On seeing him lifeless like that, I got a little worried and asked him if he needed water.
He did not respond so I looked at the phone and further said, " umm, here, th thank you. "
And as soon as I lift up my gaze, he is gone. He vanished into thin air just in a few milli seconds. Two milli seconds ago, he was in front of me like a statue and then puff, gone.
I looked around me to see, that people had now started coming out from classes but there was no sign for him. I ran towards the exit to find him.
But there was no sign of him. How dis he disappear that quickly. Its impossible! This is really freaking me out. My hands went all sweaty and I remembered what I had in my hand. His phone. I had to return it back to him today itself because I can't imagine my life without my phone for even two seconds. Although I just got a great sample of the unimaginable. God, this was all his fault because he vanished without his phone. Now I cannot even meet Harry because it will get late then.   Now I have to go searching and asking for his, according to rumors and H, bigger than a hotel and luxurious mansion in between the forests. T
his man is going to be the end of me. He is going to make the coming years seriously a hell of a ride for me.
