Need A Stack

Chapter 8: Me.

Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye - Hellen Keller

It can't be him right?

I mean...it's mom who texted...yea I even checked one last time and it was mommy's text I had read just some moments ago...

"Mom?"

I called in a low terrific tone cause even thou I called that name,my conscience never agreed with it...that wasn't mom.

Slowly and weakly I approached the seat to where ' mom ' was just to see 'her' in the right angle.

"Wooaahh! Come on girl!!" That dude had the guts to laugh out loud while turning to my scary face. He couldn't hold the laugh and I couldn't believe he's been checking on me all this time and everything I've been doing ever since I stepped my foot in the staircase.

"I can't believe it! Alvin...what the hell were you doing with mom's phone?!where did you take her? What's wrong with you idiot!!!what are you even doing in my house!"

The psycho in me was awaken and I couldn't keep calm....what was he really doing in our house? Well at least for a while I had a doubt that he's around but save that....what was he doing here!!

"Sshhhh you'll wake up mom,dad and Donny...you know it's late... maintain your low tone baby...come on."

Wait...he just called me baby....he doesn't even seem scared of my loud shouts...instead he's scared of waking up the ones who had slept already...and so I noticed one of his character is sustained...he never minds my psycho mood....I may be mad and screaming all over but instead he would look at me and continue with his own business. I hated this..he should look worried and panic-stricken at least to show me that I'm making a point right!

That has never been Alvin's demeanor and guess it will never be!

With this on mind I rolled my eyes and faced the other side. My knees couldn't relax a bit and they kept on knocking each other I wondered what was up.To avoid the awkwardness..I decided to lean on one of the seats with a frown on my face he couldn't even make it to ask me anything.

"So who texted in mom's phone."

I asked him not making any mistake of looking him in the eye... despite all my ugly behaviours and promises I made to myself never to get along with him...I still had that soft spot for this man and I never wanted him to notice this.

He was the most proud guy I ever known and if in any case he notices that .....he would be more than sure that everything he's up to will just get as planned... something I fought with.

"I did." He said this with a bright smile and even thou I faced the opposite side,,I could feel his gaze on my tiny body. "Does that matter Amanda.? Please look at me...I didn't call you down here to face me your back...I needed to see you ...and ....talk to you."

I still didn't feel like looking at him. Alvin messed our friendship long ago and it's something I hadn't dealt with..the memory of it was still fresh and detailed in my mind that I couldn't manage a glance at him anymore.

"At least you're seeing me,, hearing my voice ..then what about you talk out whatever it is you woke me up from and let me leave."

It was 11pm...althou this wasn't my time to sleep...at times I could sleep at 2am just gazing at the many movies in my laptop all night but I rather do that than have all this time in an enclosed room with this moron.

"Look Amanda,,,I know I messed up big time but...this isn't the right way to treat me....I admit I'm sorry and I'm ready to work this out one more time whatever deal it takes I'm in... please come on...just give me another slim chance to prove you that people change." He said this trying to get closer to me...I could hear his silent steps as much as he tried so bad to make them unnoticed.

Alvin is now making this so hard for me. As I would remember the last time we were getting along....he was the one who did me dirty and since I couldn't take it,,,I made up my mind to leave without him even thou it was a hard decision to make.

As far as I can remember,,,I was walking leisurely from my history class to have lunch when Annette,my old friend ran to me and stopped some two three steps before me. She was so tired and seemed to have had an eager information she was to tell me.

"What is it Annette?why the long breathing and tiredness.."
"Amanda,,,just come see for yourself."

I wondered what could it be that Annette can't just tell me herself! Immediately the scene availed itself to my sight....I came to understand why she couldn't say it....I became weak on my knees and my eyes went dull with my mouth wide open.... I just couldn't believe what I saw before me....can Alvin really do that to me....well things weren't still clear between us but at least he could tell me he had another woman in her life who meant the whole world to him. Alvin was there... kissing my classmate Dora and to make it worse....on the lady's changing room! Oh my God! But why her! Okay..I'm not trying to sound mean but that girl is not pretty like me..! She had big white disgusting lips you wouldn't even wish to look at...her brows poorly shaped with her funny eyes she herself wouldn't even like to look at someone for long. But this girl knew I and Alvin used to get along ever since we were admitted to this school. The thought of it made me hate that girl every single day even thou she hadn't done me wrong.Why thou.. I'd even thought Alvin had a good taste when it came to ladies but..... whatever!

Here we are now.... under the same roof him trying to bring us back to what we had before...and this time I guess he wants something more than that....what was running in my mind then was what if he gets on ' cheating ' on me with another poor face! Pass!!

I know he tried so hard to plead with me and all that staff from long ago but I'm not sounding petty and to me that was completely not forgiveable.

"....Amanda come on...look at me.... at least say something... I've been speaking all this time and you don't seem to even listen to me....come on we'll make things out this time..."

Was he right?! That we would make things out....this time?!

All that time I was just standing there trying to figure out what this young man was really up to. He's now so close to me that I couldn't even move a feet or stretch. I know he wants to touch me on my waist from my back and give me a kiss on the neck but I'm so cold and pretending to be so lost in my own thoughts. At least that's one thing I liked about Al...he wouldn't do something he thinks you're not okay with....and I'm honestly happy he maintained that....he was so cute and charming and I swore if just in any case he finds himself holding me I would've screamed several 'Yes dude! We can work this out' phrases and wake every god-damn person in this house. Save that thou.

I felt this was about to happen and I decided to move away from him as soon as I could.

"You know what Al??! Just forget whatever you've told me and enjoy your holiday if in any case you're in one...and yes I will enjoy mine... goodnight!" I said this with a faint grin on my face just to confuse the devil when inside I really wanted to tell him it's okay to work it out and I'm more than willing to do that.

I walked through the stairs without looking back to confirm if he's staring at me or trying to get a place to sleep....after all none of that was my business.

Immediately I got to my room,,,I pushed the door roughly and jumped on my bed fighting any kind of memory of Alvin in my mind. I shut down my laptop and promised to finish the third episode next day and with no time I hid my head under the pillow just to find my sleep with no thoughts of Alvin and this funny world.
