It's been two days. I thought attorney Campbell had absolutely forgotten about the case. Fortunately, I got a call. It was an unknown number, so I suspected that it was her. "Hello?" I was surprised, for it happened to be a guy instead. "Sorry, who's this?" I asked. "Oh, this is attorney Campbell." Oh, so it was her. "Excuse my voice. I've had a bad throat since this morning." Incredible, how her voice sounded exactly like a man.

"Okay, so what's the news?" I asked, "Right. The court had arranged a hearing in two weeks." She replied. "Just informing you." "Alright. Thanks a lot." I said, as I hung up the phone.

I've spent such a long time cleaning up my place, since I've never had a chance because of the wild things that's been happening. Now that I've finished polishing everything around the flat, I'd say, I did an incredible job. Everything looked squeaky clean and fantastic. "A big pat on the back, Zoe. Good job." I thought to myself "Now, I have time to go jogging." I said with a smile.

I went straight to my wardrobe, and pulled out a pair of shorts, a sports bra and my Nike jogging shoes. When I got out of my building, the weather was beautiful. It was perfect. Not too hot, yet not too cold. So, then I started jogging.

I jogged for I think an hour and a half, for a couple of blocks. When I finished jogging, I stopped by the supermarket to buy a bottle of water. Once I got out of the grocery store with my bottle of water, I started walking back to my place. As I was walking, a car was slowing down to catch up to me. It was really suspicious. I tried to walk as fast as I could, and try to look like I don't know that their car was possibly following me. Then the window rolled down. "Hey." Yelled a familiar voice. I looked straight, and tried to ignore him. "Hey, Zoe. Fancy a ride?" I glanced at the guy. It was Luke.

"Thanks. But, no thanks." I replied, still walking straight. "But, it's a 'long way home'" He joked. "Seriously?" I said, annoyed, then I pointed up my middle finger. I continued walking, "C'mon. Was that really necessary?" I just kept walking and ignoring him. "Hey, you might wanna.." Was still ignoring him "Hey, watch out for the.."

I woke up at the back of a car. "Hey slugger." Luke giggled. "Wha.. What happened?" I asked, with my head hurting for some reason. "Oh. You bumped yourself to a pole, when you were trying so hard to avoid me." He laughed. Right. Ugh. "Huh. Is that so?" I replied angrily, "Well, you can drop me off now." "No. I'm gonna take you home." He demanded. "Arsehole" I whispered. I saw a small grin in the corner of his lips.

As he continued driving, he approached me and said, "So, have you heard about the court hearing in two weeks?" "Uh, yeah." I replied, sounding annoyed. "Ah. Well, may the best song writer win." I looked at the window, and just ignored him. "That's me right there, on the next block." I said pointing at the direction. He stopped the car when we got to my block, then I got out of his car. "Nice knowing ya, heycallmezoe05" he said with a wink. I faked a smile and rolled my eyes, then went back to my flat.
