stranger in our midst

Happy foot

Jax pretended not to know why I called him, he folded his hand and asked me the same old question.

I went closer locking eyes with him, he withdrew feeling uncomfortable.

Jax takes out my hands and placed them on his chest.

"Do you feel my heart beating?"

He tells.

"Yes! I feel it,"

I said, trying to count the time it beats.

Immediately I forgot what I was supposed to say, he checks the time and saw it was late.

He asked me to go home and make sure to call him when I do.

I shook my head and walked into the first taxi I came across.

I went back home and it seems like the spell put on me disappeared, I immediately got to my senses.

Jax did this to me on purpose.

He knew I wasn't to ask him a very important question.

Mom walks outside and saw me talking to myself, she asked if I was okay.

I smiled at her and said I was.

She grunts and asked me to come in.

I went in holding my bags, mom had already set table for dinner.

She seats a bowl of my favorite dish and watched my mouth watery.

I ate dinner right after we prayed and afterward got into my room.

Everything seems quiet, a little too quiet.

I walked to the window and looked around, something immediately grabbed my attention.

I could have sworn, I saw Jax looking directly at me, he was hiding behind a White car packed at the other side of the road.

I closed the curtains and went to sleep.

The next morning, I got to college, I went to my favorite chair Inside the hall when Jax jumped in from nowhere and sat on it.

"Hey, that's not nice,"

I said.

He rolls his eyes at me and ordered me to seat someplace else.

Why is Jax acting like a jerk?

I went to another seat to lecture, I turned back and he gave me a wink.

That son of a b***h is going to get an earful after classes.

After the class ended, I looked back to have Jax a piece of my mind, however, I got blocked by her royal highness.

Kimberly.

"Hello Anna, do you mind if we talked for a while,".

She pulls out an envelope.

"Okay! But what is that?"

I looked at the envelope in her hand.

Kimberly laughed and asked me to take it, she announced not just to me but to the entire student at the hall about her party tonight.

She wanted us all to attend including myself.

"Can you make it to my party, Anna,"

She grinned mysteriously.

I saw them on her face, that alone made me know that she had planned something evil tonight.

However, I had every right not to go instead I accepted and even asked her to wait for me at the party.

She nods and left with her baby dolls.

I wonder what she had in-store tonight.
