Him?

CHAPTER 3 LYDIA

“dia” …my eyes shoot open “you scared me” caught off guard Kat clutches her chest…

“Kat” I jump up hugging her

“I’m. So happy to see you too” I let go of her, my face beaming with smiles

Feeling relieved I ask “but. How did you know I was there_? I mean...”

“I know what you mean, I just tracked your phone” she explained her voice shaky, how could she lie to me with a straight face, it’s just one lie. Don’t take it seriously. My phone wasn’t even with me so how could she track-.

“dia it’s going to be so much fun. Dia?!”

“yeah?”

“Ugg. Were you even listening?” she huffs

After eyeing me down she continues “anyway……… Are you coming or not?”

“where are we going again?”

“You have to guess”

After 2hours of trying to guess where she’s taking me she decides to make it a surprise, which made me excited

“are we their y-?” my body is flinged forward at the force of the halt.

“we are here” she said cheerfully like nothing even happened

“yeah I kind of figured that out” I say sounding annoyed while rubbing my reddened forehead, note to self never let Kat behind a wheel again.

We walk into a large luxury jewelry store, I knew Kat loved to buy lots of expensive things but why did she have to drag me with her.

“don’t you have enough jewelry already?” I stood straight holding all her bags, like a walking bag rack

“these aren’t for me silly” she said as I felt the cold heavy metal on my nape.

“isn’t this too much…you know I can’t afford these things” I whisper my cheeks turning pink

“LYDIA BLACKWOOD!” she scolds, making my eyes water. I hated a lot of things, and someone yelling at me was on a VIP level.

“never. Ever worry about the price of something when I’m with you” I nod

“now let’s go have fun” she said while she skipped through the aisles

While we shopped for different types of jewelry’s that is ‘Kat forcing me to choose half the store’

I stopped in my tracks as I passed the antic section, my hand fly’s to the nape of my neck. It’s gone. oh no maybe I lost it last night. I should ask Kat maybe she must have seen it.

later we go back to one of her houses, yes one of multiple. She doesn’t have a job I’ve never seen her family although I’ve been curious where she gets so much money from a lot of times. It just seemed too absurd to actually ask so I just kept my curiosity tied down. She pulls me back to reality.

“well, do you like it “she had changed her clothes to a black bodycon dress matched with black red bottoms her long red curly hair was left to fall over her shoulders, I had to admit she was pretty and curvy all the right places.

“why you so dressed up”

“I’m going out for a while”

“how long is a ‘while’?” I raise my eyebrows skeptically

“2 days” I had to ask cause there was a time she said she would be gone for half a day and ended up spending 5 freaking months wherever she went.

“actually, I’ll just be gone for a month. Really this time. I just have one favor to ask...”

“babysit your house” she always tells me to do that.

“yes, and don’t get in trouble”

Without waiting for an answer, she pulls three suitcases that I never even knew where there out the big door…. well, no goodbyes?

Sigh. I always get scared staying in big places alone.so I busied myself with cleaning. Gosh her room is so dirty. There are literally trash in her drawer, something shiny catches my eye I pull it out to have a closer look...gotcha.

“I should’ve just asked Kat” I put it on.

“finally, I was wondering when you’d put me on” I head a deep manly voice.

Scared I look frantically around the room. “who is that??”

“its nice meeting you too”

There’s absolutely no one here...maybe I’m hallucinating ...yes that must be it. I should go for a walk.

I walk to the elevator, when the doors open …I’m starstruck, he’s handsome, I can see he’s annoyed its either cause I’m gawking at him or I’m stalling the elevator, I walk in just before the doors close.

All of a sudden, I feel like a heavy weight is pulling me to the ground I instinctively look up to him…he’s staring but not at me but at the pendant, now that turned awkward fast. I move to press my elevator button to see he already pushed it for me…calm down maybe he’s just going the same way.

The elevator opens after forever. I literally sprint out…something was weird about that guy.

his name is Clyde? The voice in my head snickered.

thanks. What? did I just imagine what his name was…Lydia you’re officially gone crazy
