Mystery Girl

Chapter 4: Shocking Phone Call...

*Disclaimer: It starts off around the same time that I ended it in the last chapter.*

*Side note: She gets extensions in this chapter so the pictures with longer hair style what her hair looks like except its the same shade of purple from the picture of what she looks like*

3:00pm

I just knew for a fact that I was on the floor for another 30 minutes in my apartment after my date with Daniel and that phone call. I also know that the only thing running through my head was the fact that I had to block this number and get a new phone. But, I just couldn't grab my phone because of how shocked I was, i haven't heard that voice since my accident. Next thing I knew my body was shutting down, and the only thing that brought me out of my thought and into somewhat reality were these pair of arms that wrapped around me and this voice. It snapped me back to reality, and that was the only thing that I could process, but it was like even though I knew his lips were moving I couldn't understand a single word that was coming out. It was like everything that was happening was in slow motion. He picked me up and placed me on the couch before rushing off to get some blankets, water, and some Tylenol. Next, I heard my door close and thats when it was like all my senses came back. As I got my thoughts in order I never gave Daniel the number to my apartment...

"Hey...um how did you know the floor that I stay on..?" my voice a little raspy I wasn't sure if he could hear me.

"Someone saw you collapse or zone out and they called for an ambulance. I wasn't even halfway away from your house when I saw them drive past me in a hurry. I immediately felt something off in my gut, so I turned around and followed them back to your place. And once I got out the car I asked what was going on and one of the people in your building told me that you weren't responding and like collapsed."

"Oh, well I'm okay now. Thanks for being here... also sorry for the scare."

I just looked at him in an apologetic way even though I know that I probably don't have to be sorry for blacking out after the phone call. Right as he was about to probably ask me something so that he could take care of me his phone rang, when he pulled his phone out of his pocket I saw a glimpse of his screen and saw the name Corbyn. He declined the call I know he only did that because he wanted to make sure I was okay, but I just told him that it was okay and I'll be fine and to go to his meeting. Before he left he kissed my forehead which made my heart flutter a little then left.

After a little longer I get up and take a shower, washing my hair, and thinking about what to do next. As I look for some clothes to wear I think that maybe I should get some extensions, I choose a pink cropped shirt. and some black jeans with rips on the knees, some black converse, a black backpack filled with some things I am gonna need while at the salon and for after the salon plus some sunglasses because I'm still out of it and I don't want the sun to make it worse. I pick up my phone to text Kimberly and see if she can stop by her hair salon and get my extensions.

Me: Hey, Kimberly can I come to your hair shop. I want to get some extensions and maybe if I can decide what color I want then I may dye my hair.

Kimberly: Yeah, I actually just had my last appointment so come on by and then you can spill the details on the date that you had with Daniel.

Me: Okay, that's great! I'll be over in 5

When I get my keys to leave I get another message and this time it's from an unknown number so without looking at the complete message I just delete it because I have everyone saved and since my accident I haven't really answered any completely unknown numbers. If the number looks familiar, then I'll answer it but I won't say anything unless the person talks first just in case. I haven't really talked to my family since they think I am dead... I shake the thought of the unknown text out of my head before making my way to the hair salon.

5:00pm

I get into the hair salon and decide that I want to keep my hair the same purple but instead of keeping it short I decide that I want extensions, as I talk to the lady about my appointment I get another text message from the same unknown number as before, once again I get this dread feeling in the pit of my stomach but I still delete the message seeing as to the fact that I don't know the number. Something in my brain told me I shouldn't have deleted the message. I just pushed it to the back of my mind because it was done so I just thought about my extensions and the next time I would see Daniel. Plus, I knew Kimberly really wanted to know the details on my date with Daniel.

As she came out from the back, getting her chair ready for me to sit down she was so eager... a little bit more than normal made that a mental note to ask her about it later.

"Hey Skylar, did you think about if you wanted to change up the color?" Kim said while trimming a little bit of my hair.

"I decided to keep it purple, but I do want extensions." I said with a smile as I knew that she was about to ask about my date with Daniel.

She went to the back and brought out a length and I nodded immediately because it was a good length and I love how easy it was to be able to talk to her about the date that I just had with Daniel. Even though I had a really good date I left out the part where there was a mysterious phone call by an unknown number.

*RING RING*

I checked my phone to see that an unknown caller was calling me for some odd reason, so I just put my phone way and continue talking to Kim. As I finish telling her the details I get another call from the same number as before I just decline the call and start to get a little bit curious as to who could be calling me... the only people who had my number were my best friends and Daniel. As she adds the finishing touches on my hair my phone rings again for the third time, Kim asks me if I wanna just answer the call and I tell her that its fine and I can call them back later. I add a fake smile to reassure her that it was fine.

                    6:25pm

She shows me the final look of my hair and I smile from ear to ear because I have not had long hair since the accident. I start to tear up because a whole bunch of memories just overwhelmed me of what happened before the accident.

"I LOVE IT!" I got up and hugged Kim because I just love that it was the perfect and she got the color purple to match with the rest of my hair perfectly.

As I left I got another call from that unknown number so I answered and waited for someone to say something. No one said anything but I heard a video playing in the background and the video immediately made me paranoid and I rushed to my car, driving home. No one else made it out of that incident but me... so who could have a video of what happened... and how did they get my number?

When I got home I rushed inside and locked all the doors plus the added locks I got on there before taking a shower and going into my room. A whole bunch of thoughts were going through my head. As I started to talk myself out of this paranoia I got a message from a random person... I opened the message and the message was a video of the accident and a separate photo was sent that was just a picture of me. That's when I decided that I needed to lay low for a while. I got a pen and paper and wrote Betsy, Kimberly, and Daniels number before smashing my phone and stepping on it until the glass shattered.

Only one thing was on my mind and that was to find who had the video and get this over with so I could go back to my family and live a somewhat normal life with normal friends. I packed my bag so that at any given moment I was ready to go. I had my gun in my drawer and my knife in my bag. I kept my bag under a compartment in my bed that only I knew about. Along with pictures of me and my family and my best friends before the incident. The very first people who I could ever call a best friend. They mourned my death and they are living a happy normal life... they always had a thing for each other so the last I knew they were married and had a child together... I have to end this so that I can go back to them and go back to my parents. THIS ENDS HERE!
