A Stranger's Mind (On Hold)

“Are you afraid”….

“Don’t be afraid…” 

I heard a voice on my back head. I was looking at the mirror of the bathroom, after what I just saw. My breath was cold, and short, and I was still dizzy. “Wake up… are you afraid?”

Still confused, I got closer to the mirror above the sink; it was steamed because of the hot water. I cleaned it and saw a shadow. I couldn’t see who it was, so I turned around and tried to hit it.

-Hey! Hey! Watch it! Calm down it’s me, Phill!-

-Ahh, God- I was breathing heavily, trying to get a clear look at Phillips.

-Wha… What are you doing here man? ... -

- Tommy called me. He told me you went mad after what happen earlier today. You ok bro? -

I stood there staring at Phillips’s curly hair, and large glasses. He’s Short and skinny, with a piercing on his lips. He’s into Buddhism and all those weird stuff. Not to mention he’s a pot head.

-Answer me! Are you ok? -  Phillips said with an angry voice.

-Yes, I’m good. Relax; I just had a bad morning.- I turned back to the sink and cleaned my face. I could still feel the taste of vomit down my throat.

-You took your pills?- Phillips asked.

- Yes I did, who are you my fucking mother?-

-Hey relax man; I’m the only thing you got besides that prick! - He said while he searched through his pocket for a lighter, and started smoking.

-Watch it, that’s my mother you’re talking about.- I said sarcastically. Phillips stood there for a minute just staring at me. With no words said.

-What? - I ask.

-What were you doing here so early? He replied while leaving the smoke out in circle forms from his mouth.

-Rosario called me; she said she needed me to be here on the morning shift. Why?-

-Didn’t she say that to Billy? - He asked.  Now I’m confused, is that why Billy was here too? Stuff are getting really weird today.

-How do you know all this stuff Phil? –

-Well on the way here, I caught up with Billy; he said he saw you walking way to early on campus. - Phillips said while he got out of the bathroom.

-I don’t get it? Why would Rosario call Billy to be here so early? - I followed him to the main entrance.

-Look I don’t got all the answers of the universe ok! Just stop creeping around so early ok? –

Phillips went to the front desk where Serena was, his girlfriend. She’s shorter than him, light brown hair, and green eyes. They were chatting and sometimes they laid a kiss. I went up to them because I noticed they were looking at me way too much.

-Um… Its something wrong? – I said with a soft sarcastic laugh.

-Oh hey Marc! How you doing? – Serena said. She has a really soft voice. It could calm anyone down.

- Not much I just kind of noticed you guys were watching me. - Its something wrong with me?

Serena laughed, and Phillips tried to hide his, but he couldn’t.

-Dude- Phillips said. Your sipper is down-

-What? My pa… Oh shit! - Both of them started to laugh hard as I was sipping my pants.
