Melissa's Pov
"Darling?" Mum called from a distance.
Omg she's home already?
"Act natural" I told Barbie.
"Okay" she replied.
"There you are. What's going on girls? Are you having a girl talk?" she asked giving an aircote to the word 'girl talk'.
"Uhm n..n..no" Barbie blurted.
"Is anything wrong?" Mum asked.
Barbie was about to spoil my plan. She wasn't acting naturally at all. She had a facial expression that gave away the fact that I had a secret.
I quickly hit her with my elbow which made her let out a groan.
"Ouch!" She yelled.
"Are you hiding anything from me?" Mum questioned.
Things were getting worse for me. Mum kept asking questions that I didn't have an answer to.
I thought: Can things go any worse? BOOM!! I got my answer immediately. I wish I didn't ask cause things could actually get worse. I got a text from Cody.
Doesn't he know the appropriate time to text? I thought.
But to think about it, he's actually helping me now. Even though I wasn't in the mood for his romance chats, he could help me escape from my mum's wrath.
"I'll be right back mum. I have a message" I told mum.
"Okay" she replied.
"Can I go with Tracy?" I asked.
"Why?" She questioned.
I had to take Tracy out of there. Mum could pressurise her to tell the truth.
"Mum! Why so much questions?" I asked. Trying to drift from the question.
"Well if you really need her I can leave you girls alone. Since you are keeping me in the dark." She said sadly.
"I'm sorry mum" I told her.
I wish I could tell mum. I actually could tell her but she'll probably have a heart attack. I don't want her heart disease to get worse.
As soon as she left I turned to Barbie
"You almost let us out." I hit her.
"Ouch! You know I'm not good at keeping secrets. Don't blame me" she said while rubbing her arm.
"Whatever" I said before picking up my phone.
The message..
You have 10 unread messages.
3 from Cody and 7 from Char
Cody: To meet you..
Char: Please..
I decided to open Cody's message first. I wasn't ready to read Char's messages. It'll get me more upset.
Cody's message said
Cody: Hey babe
Cody: Can we meet at the Perino's
Cody: I'm dying to meet you
I replied saying
Lissa: Hi
Lissa: Sure we can meet. What time?
I ignored Char's message and went straight to check out my e-mail. I got a few messages from school, online classes and Char again.
The guilt was disturbing. I had to get rid of my phone. I immediately closed all my opened apps and threw my phone on the bed.
