Jack woke up. It was a Tuesday. Only 10 more days until he had to perform at the competition. He was dreading it but he also couldn't wait.
Today wasn't any special day; just a normal school day. He got ready for school, ate something and then walked to school with Nick. Unlike usual, Fred wasn't there. He asked Nick.
"I don't know. I think he's sick or just skipping school"
This was maybe the first day ever that Jack actually wanted to see Fred and ask him about the message, but he wasn't there. What a surprise.
Jack's day went on like normal. He did some classes, had break, talked with his friends and then he went home waiting for another message.
He wanted to stay quiet about this to Nick because Nick wasn't afraid to just ask his brother and then he would be screwed. What if Fred then really started to mess up his life? He wasn't ready for that.
He came to his senses and just started practicing guitar until he got a phone call.
"Hello, who's this?"
"Yes, hello, its Samantha's father," said a gruff voice.
It was kind of strange that Samantha and Jack have been friends for about a year and they never met each other's parents.
"Oh, is this about the trip to New York? said Jack, concerned that Samantha couldn't go
"Yes. I just wanted to ask if it was ok with your parents because if it is then I've got no problem with it" said Samantha's father
"Yeah. If you want I can give you my mom's number. I would give you the phone but she's busy with work and my dad's in Hong Kong right now for work reasons, but he's coming back in about a month." said Jack
"Ok. Just give me your mom's number and I'll give her a call tomorrow," said Samantha's father
"I'll text it to you," said Jack
"As long as I get it I'm fine," said, Samantha's father
"Ok thanks," said Jack
Jack ended the call and continued practising his guitar until he was so tired he went to sleep as soon as his each hit the pillow.
"Buzz buzz"
Tick Tock goes the clock and the days by
Tick Tock goes the clock and competition goes by
Tick Tock goes the clock and the loser stays a loser
Sorry if the end is a bit cryptic when I put "Buzz" "Buzz" its for the anonymous writer that's sending weird messages to Jack
