        Scarlett woke up from a phone call. It was Peter. At first she thought it was only an illusion, because she was still sleepy, but then she realised that it was really him. She jumped out of her bed and cleared her throat. Then she answered it.

"Hello?", she said yawning.

"Hi Scar, what's up?"

"Hey Peter! Long time no see!"

"Have I woken you up?"

"No, no, I woke up hours ago."

"Scar."

"What?"

"I used to wake you up almost everyday when we were together."

"Oh, yea. I forgot that.", she said while she stood up and went downstairs. "So, what's the phone call for?", She said while she made coffee.

"I missed you guys. I've been trying to accept what has happened to me and that's why I didn't want anyone to talk to me those days, but now I'm good. And I'm ready to get out there and live my life again."

"That's great to hear! We'll meet up at 'Java Lava' today. Theo is working, and since it's Saturday and we have nothing to do, we'll go there and keep him company until he is done. Do you want to come?"

"Umm sure!"

"Great, I'll call you later to tell you the time."

"Okay Scar. See ya."

"Bye."

        She took a seep of her coffee and sat on the couch. She closed her eyes for a second and felt relieved. Is good old Peter back?, she wondered to herself. She took her cellphone and texted Lorrie.

"Peter is coming with us at 'Java Lava' "

"Well that was unexpected!"

"I know right? When will Theo work?"

"At twelve o'clock"

"So 12 be there?"

"Sure. I'll tell Alfie too."

"Okay see ya ;) xx"

        Scarlett called Peter and told him that they would be there at twelve o'clock. He said that he would be there and they hung up. She went upstairs and took a quick shower. Then she put on dark jeans and a blue long-sleeved blouse. She turned her laptop on and logged in to Facebook. 

So what are you doing today?

         It was a message from the guy that had been sending her messages for a couple of days and she didn't know his name or who it was. He had told her that he was in her school, but she didn't really believed him.

Why do you care?

Oh come on! I'm bored. Keep me company, will you? :))

Nop.

Why not?

'Cause I don't even know you.

So?

Can you leave me alone?

Let's play a game

No.

I'm glad you agree!

Go fuck yourself.

Don't you love me? :(

What do I have to do for you to leave me alone?

Play by my rules ;)

What if I don't
