Unexpected

School was finally dismissed, and I had a crazy idea. But first, I needed to head home. I walked up to my car, and then I realized there was a red square on it. I picked up my pace to find out what it was. When I started to zoom in, I gasped when I recognized it.

Another post-it from my admirer.

I smiled as I peeled it off my side window and read the message.

I've seen you drive your car...pretty fast huh? It's the same way my heart beats whenever you're around or when I think of you :-)

My smile widened when I read it, and then I read it again. I looked around to see if anyone was watching, but just like last time, everyone was minding their own business. I sighed and opened up my car. When I sat inside, I opened my bag and pulled out my English book: the class I had when I got my first note.

I opened the back of the book, and I placed my second note right next to the first one. I started my engine and left school.

---------------------------------

"Hola! I'm home!" I shouted into the house, and just as I expected, mami came running towards me.

"Hola, Celine," she said, pulling me into a hug. "I was waiting for you. I wanted to take a nap after you came home."

"Oh yeah, about that, I wanted to stop by a friend's house," I said, resting my bag on the table.

"Well, no problemo. Just make sure you're protecting yourself, and call me if anything happens," she replied, already starting to head upstairs.

"Okay, thanks mami," I said.

"Te quiero!" Mami shouted from her room.

"I love you, too" I shouted back, opening the freezer. I decided to heat up some frozen pizza to eat before I leave.

It wasn't long before I finally heated the cheesy goodness, and while I ate, I decided to use my phone.

I saw there was a message from Livie, and I so I opened it.

Livie😍: Hey girly. Wassup?

It was then that it occurred to me that I haven't told her about my admirer. So I typed:

Me: Oh nothing but the norms. School, homework, secret admirers...

Livie😍: Huh? Secret admirers?

Me: Yuppp😏

Livie😍: Omg, really?! Gosh girly🙉. I want you to tell me all about it tomorrow!🤗

Me: Totally😉

Livie😍: You still going on with your plan?🕵

Me: Yeah, wish me luck🕳🚶🏻‍♀️

Livie😍: Lol, if you say so

And with that, I decided it was time to leave. After a few minutes,  I was in my Sedan, heading to my destination.

In ten minutes, I pulled to at the Cooke residence. It was honestly smaller than my house, but it was a very nice place. The grass was neatly cut, with a few flowers here and there.

I got out of my car and slowly headed to the front door, cause I have no idea what to expect after I knock on the door. Once I got there, I hesitated. What if they shun me? Well, I better give it a shot.

I knocked on the door, and soon I heard rapid footsteps closing in towards the door. It opened, and standing there was Amelia Cooke, Alice's little sister by two years. She was sort of short, and had this typically weird but amusing personality. She also had a red streak in her blond hair, which was only shoulder length.
