I rush my mum outside. It was very difficult to get through the house when fire was all around but I managed. When we got outside, i called to Arn and dad.
"Guys! Here's mum!"
"Steve what were you thinking! You should've left mum inside the house. That was very dangerous Steve!"
"Wait...are you my dad?"
"Yes.What do you think?"
"My dad never says that, he'd let me do anything I want"
"Shut it Steve! I can't wait longer!"
He grabs a gun from his bag and with a blink of an eye, he shoots me.
* * * *
"Steve, wake up! This is only a dream!"
I hear mum's voice and suddenly I wake up. I hug her and start crying.
"Steve, what happened?"
"I had a dream about you dying in a house fire and dad didn't want me to to save you then...then, they shot me."
"Okay, but remember it's only a dream so don't worry."
"Thanks mum." I then give her a big hug. Then she leaves.
A moment later, I go to check my phone. I hope that there are no more shitty posts about me on Facebook and Instagram. When I check my phone, I see lots of messages! Bloody hell, 60 messages! It's probably people like Arn that will put me down and start telling me that I'm such a baby. Well too bad, I''m gonna look any way. I was wrong. Most of the messages we're people cheering me up. My soccer teammates, friends, cousins and Jasmine. Wait...Jasmine! OMG, Jasmine actually texted me. I didn't even realise that she sent me a message! How did she get my number? I need to find out. So, I go to her message and I start typing. 'Where did u get mi number?', wait that doesn't sound nice, I shall try again. 'Yo bruh, where u get my numero?', nah that's kind of like gangster talking. What about, 'Hey girl, am...where did u possibly get my number 😉', nah that's worse, she's gonna think that I'm hitting on her or something. This is harder than I expected. Maybe I won't ask her at all. Yeah, that's a good idea. I'll just put my phone down to the side and go on my iPad. Before I even get my iPad, I get a message from someone. I wonder who it'll be. I check my phone and it was Jasmine. "You writing a speech?" she texted. She's been waiting for my reply. "Amm...no just couldn't think of anything to say"
"Oh ok"
"BTW, how did u get my number?"
"Oh, I asked Arn"
"Y"
"So that I can cheer u up"
"Oh, thanxs"
''Np"
I then turn my phone off and start going crazy. I never knew this day would happen. Jasmine and I just had a conversation. I am never gonna delete that message thread. So that I won't lose it, I'll screenshot it. Haha, there we go. Finally my day just got better.
"Steve, lights out in half a hour!"
Damn it, my day just got better but now I have to go to bed.
"K mum!"
In that half a hour, I start listening to music that some of these girls from Chris' school told me to listen to. 5SOS or something like that. I type it on the net and I press the first music video that is there. 'She Looks So Perfect Standing There' is the first song of theirs that I listen to. The music video is pretty gross but the lyrics was FANTABULOUS! This is the first time I heard this band sing and I already like them!
"Steve, lights out!"
"Ok mum"
I then turn the lights off and go to sleep again.
* * * *
As I wake up, I check my phone. There's a new message from my coach. "Steve where were you at training? We need you on Saturday. Hope you get well. Kind Regards, Fred." Crap! I forgot all about training. "Soz coach. I was very sick, but I might be able to make it on Saturday. I will just pray to the Man upstairs to heal me. Very soz coach." Ah, now I feel better.
"Steve! Breakfast is ready" Mum shouts.
"K, mother!"
I go down stairs to the kitchen. My dad is reading an article on his phone while my mum is preparing our breakfast. She brings out 8 plates.
"Mum, i'm pretty sure there's only 3 of us, unless you're hallucinating and you're seeing 5 other me"
"No, we're just having visitors"
"Oh, great! Who?"
"This new family that just moved in at 32"
"Oh, the couple that moved in on Wednesday?"
"Well apparently they're not a couple. They have 3 daughters and one is you're age that's your age. You'll like her Steve, she's very pretty"
"Mum, I've already got a cr...never mind" So lucky there. I don't want her to know because last time I told her my crush, she went crazy. She told me how to ask her out and how to treat her. That's why I don't her to know.
"Ok Stevey, just have a shower first and be prepared for school, you're going to be going with them"
"Going with them?"
"Well apparently, they go to the same school as you. Oh, except for the youngest"
"Ok" I then go back to my room. I prepare my clothes and head off to my bathroom.
* * * *
When I finished having a shower, I put my clothes on and head towards the kitchen. As I step on the kitchen, I hear a familiar voice. I sounds very much like...Jasmine's.
HEHEHEHEHE END OF CHAPTER!
