High school Bad Boy's Secret

Chapter 6

~Callum~
So everything was back to normal. I tracked down the guy who filmed the locker incident and threatened him to take down the video. Everyone seemed to forget about the incident.... Well everyone except one guy, Liam Carter. He seemed to hate me and like Ashlyn all of a sudden. I was sitting in class and was looking at Ashlyn and Liam talking. They were getting pretty close... Ashlyn should thank me for that.But why do I feel bad about them becoming close? I shake my head and started looking for my friends. I see Jake flirting with a random girl and Tyler in deep conversation with Natalie, they are getting pretty close too,which is nice.
Everyone is having someone to talk to, to share feelings with. Well everyone except me.

"If you continue to be like him you'll end up alone, no woman will be ready to ruin her life with you" I remember my mom telling me this when she was still okay.
'him' was my dad. The business tycoon Sebastian Wolfhard, one of the world's richest man. But he was indifferent towards us. Sure he bought a lot of expensive toys for me and dresses for my mom, but my mom always thought he didn't love us. I somehow worshipped him until.....
Anyways she is loosing her memories now and he is not here today . And
I made sure that I won't need him anymore. Because he is the reason behind my mom's situation. He is the one who made her like this. He.....

I pull myself back into the present as I hear a buzzing sound.A gush of panic flows in my body as I see the name of Dr Hans, my mom's doctor. I immediately rush outside. Preparing myself for the worst I pick up the phone.
"Hello?" My voice trembling.
"Callum... it's your mum " the doctor said.
I closed my eyes.
I wanted to cry but before I could say anything the doctor said-
"She is crying she wants to see you and talk to you"
"What?"
She is okay.
I sighed a sigh of relief.
"Can you give her the phone now?" I asked
Dr Hans agreed.
"Hello!"a tired female voice said.
"Mom! It's me Callum" I cried " your son " I added.
There's a silence.
After which-
"Callum!" She cried " I don't like it here... when are you visiting me?"
I gulped.
"Soon" I said.
"I was wrong you're not like him, you'll get a good girl in life dear" she said suddenly.
"Mom let's not talk about him"
And you were not wrong I thought.
But still I needed to find a girl so my mom thinks that I'm happy and settled.
She thinks I'll need someone after she loses her memories completely.

~Ashlyn~
Liam was telling me something but I wasn't paying attention. It has been so long since I last saw Callum, I saw him running outside with his phone. He looked worried. I just hope everything's alright. The teacher was absent so everyone was talking with each other. I looked at Nat and the other two guys who had the same expressions as me, provided that only four of us knew about his mom. Before I could say anything I saw him entering the class. I don't know what made me do that but I stood up almost immediately and was about to ask him about his mom when he said-
"Can you come outside, there's something I need to tell you"
------------
Today is Friday and I skipped school because Callum is taking me to the hospital to see his mom.
I was feeling nervous.
What if she doesn't like me?
It's not like I'll spend my life with him....
I don't know why I'm feeling this way or why I'm worried about Callum all the time.
Is it possible that I.....

No...
I shake my head.
We're just friends.
I'm JUST pretending to be his girlfriend I'm not really his girlfriend.

I still don't understand why I agreed to this whole thing.
After he gave me back my diary I could have easily backed out.
But I couldn't help but feel sorry about his mom.
I lied to him when I said I didn't pity his condition. A part of me believes he has a good side that cares for his mom and his friends, maybe that's what made me agree to this whole thing.
But I just hope his mom doesn't hate me.
I've never been a girlfriend before even if it's a pretension it's new to me.
