*UNEDITED*

"Ally you are getting more unpredictable day by day." My mom screamed at me while throwing one of my favourite dresses on my face. "Can't you just at least take care of your wardrobe?" She asked not so politely.

"Mom I told you I was about to tidy up! But before I could make my room look like a clean place, you popped in!" I answered in a very explanatory manner

"Mom I told you I was about to tidy up! But before I could make my room look like a clean place, you popped in!" I answered in a very explanatory manner. But before she could throw another question at me, I stood up and went out of my room very soundlessly.

"Mom! I'm heading out for school," I said in a very high pitch, not because I had an ugly quarrel with her but because she was upstairs, probably thinking about ways of driving me crazy.

Everything was normal but I still couldn't get the thought of that old lady out of my mind. Maybe because when she gave me those flowers, I felt special or important to her. I was in deep thought but I soon came out of that useless thought and my eyes went to that old lady's place. But today something was different.

The house no more looked like a spooky place, instead, there was a ray of light coming through the window making an uneven pattern on the floor

The house no more looked like a spooky place, instead, there was a ray of light coming through the window making an uneven pattern on the floor. I know it is bad to peep into someone's place but once again I couldn't help myself and went closer to the window to get a wider view.

It was then when I unintentionally heard some murmurs again. IS IT SOMEPLACE WHERE PEOPLE COME AND TALK TO THEMSELVES, LOL, My inner Ally barged in. "I told you bish, just stay quiet when I'm processing something," I exclaimed while rolling my eyes in fury.

Before I could hear anything, I heard someone pushing the door outwards and it was then when I realised that Brendon lives here too! What should I do now, I asked myself in a great aghast. I eventually bumped into him.
ALLY YOU ARE SO DUMB, My inner Ally laughed.
"You-, I told you not to come here again!
Wait by any chance, are you stalking me?" He asked while raising one of his eyebrows.
"Do you think that the world revolves around you?" I folded my hands.
As I was continuously trying to put on a poker face, I saw something unexpected in Brendon's hand. It was a photograph and by watching his face I could tell that he was crying. I badly wanted to know about that old lady's connection with him and I thought that maybe this photograph could turn out to be useful. But before I could do anything, I saw that Brendon was already on his way to school. I ran so fastly just to match his pace of walking.
"So how are you doing Brendon?" I put on a  fake smile.
"You are shameless! Ewwww," he uttered.
This is not going to work, I said to myself. Before I could apply any other trick, I saw that we were in school and Brendon was approximately 10 steps away from me.
