“Yes I heard you first time Julia

Yes I heard you first time Julia. Uh—let—” I groan and pull my hairs.

“Okay—I was sayi—” I pull my phone away from my ears and still hear her screaming.

I put it back and shout. “Okay Julia now hear me. I heard everything you said and yes I'm bringing—okay I will drag Selena to you. Happy?” I hang up before she can reply and start walking towards drama room.

Julia and Selena made a plan to go and check the new mall opened yesterday. Since I can't go because I have to go with Liam and Amy has some physics model working thing going on. My art department is near to theatre so Julia called me to bring her well, drag her. They planned to meet after their last class and there's no sign of Selena. I reach to the auditorium backstage when I hear voices.

Selena's voice.

“Philip why are you doing this?” she sounds tiresome and continues.

“No hear me whatever I di—” I don't hear her after that because my legs get struck with the mop set that was right at the door. The moment I open it, it rattles and come in between my feet making me trip. 

“Who's there?” Selena asks in an alarmed tone.

“Oh it's just me Evanna.” I say while standing up.

“Ouch.” I wince. Looks like I sprained my ankle. I try to stand again but fall down. Selena comes to help me and I stand using her as support.

“Are you okay?” she asks.

“Um—I don't know let me just walk a little.” I try to walk a little but immediately fall down. Selena catches me in time.

“Guess I'm not okay.” I wince, keeping my one eye shut as I feel a sting like pain racing my leg.

“Here just sit.” She holds my hands and walks me to the chair.

“What are you doing here anyway?” She questions once I settle on the seat.

“To pick you up. Julia called me. She is waiting outside for you to visit the new mall. You forget I guess.” I reply.

“Shit I completely forgot about it.” she mumbles while rubbing her forehead.

“Anyway who is Philip? Who were you talking to?” I ask and look around to find someone but there's no one other than me and her.

“What you heard?”

“Nothing much I was coming inside and heard you talking to someone.” I shrug my shoulders.

“How much did you hear?” she inquires curiously.

“Not much just that you were telling Philip whatever you did. Why do you sound —nervous are you hiding something from us?” I ask narrowing my eyes at her.
