Chapter - 3
I come out of the bathroom to see Yvonne glaring at me.
"What happened?"
She keeps on glaring angrily at me. After a minute, she answers.
"You've been there inside the bathroom for so long and didn't even answer my callings. I got worried and I want to pee too."
I laugh.
"Sorry, I never hear anything when I'm inside the bathroom. It happens all the time. You have to get used to it."
"Fine whatever. Next time I'll call you from here if you don't hear me so take your phone with you when you enter. Right now, I have to pee." She says and runs to the bathroom slamming the door in a hurry.
I laugh at this and she shouts, "Stop laughing loser. I can hear you, unlike you."
I laugh more. She can be really funny. She didn't look like when I first saw her. Actually, she is everything I thought she isn't. I am already loving her. Yesterday, she showed and taught me so many things and stuffs I need to know before joining the college. I got my timetable for all my classes this morning and we checked if we have any class in common. Turns out we have almost every class in common except for the extra subject. But luckily, even she took one extra subject in case one paper goes bad, then the extra paper can boost her exam results. By luckily, I meant that whoever took one extra subject have to stay back after classes three days a week: Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Now, I won't be alone anymore after classes and we can go back together now.
I walk up to my bed and start thinking what to wear when she comes out of the bathroom. She takes a deep breath which makes me laugh. I guess I was just two seconds away from blasting her urinary bladder. She gives me a deadly glare and says, "You nearly made me pee on my pants. Anyways, you will be forgiven on only one condition."
"And what is that?"
"There is a party tonight hosted by Jason Baltimore. Everyone is invited and you are going. You can't choose to not go."
"Okay, where will this party be held? And who is Jason Baltimore?"
"There is a party house nearby owned by Jason's dad so it will be held there. Jason is one of the richest kid here. A womanizer basically so good girls stay away, including me. You should stay away too. Actually, especially you should for damn sure stay away." She says in a warning tone.
"Why did you use especially?" I ask, confused.
"Hello, which world are you in?"
"I'm in Earth."
She rolls her eyes before saying, "Have you seen ever seen yourself in the mirror? You have a 'damn' body and your features are so sharp. In short, you are drop dead gorgeous."
I was speechless. I didn't expect someone like her, a queen in beauty and style to call me something like that.
"Don't start flying. I did it so you don't bang him later on. I was trying to save you."
"I ain't stupid enough to fly by your words."
"Hey, that was mean."
"And I care because?"
She rolls her eyes and I laugh.
She again rolls her eyes before saying, "Anyways, I'm going to the Dean's office right now because Dean says he is disappointed in me for failing last year but he is proud now as I didn't choose to use POP."
"Okay bye."
She waves and goes out. I get dressed up and start to put all my clothes inside the closet. Last night, I unpacked everything but felt too tired and lazy to put everything in place so I slept. This morning, Yvonne woke me up by singing 'Just friends' by Ally Barron. Yeah, it was pretty awful and I told her which made her really irritated. She then screamed in my ears and stormed off which made me roll my eyes. I knew she wasn't serious and she will be back in no time so I went to take a shower and rest is history. Funny how you can truly know someone in just one day friendship but never really knew the person you thought you knew best, at all even after one decade of friendship.
When I open the closet, I notice that the closet is a little too big for only two people. Not that I am complaining and yeah I'll admit, I'm happy to get a big closet. I brought too many clothes because I thought I might need it. The closet is divided into two compartments and I take the right one because it's the empty one. The left one was full of Yvonne's clothes. But seeing her clothes made my jaw drop. Here I thought I have too many clothes but seeing her's proved me wrong. I quickly put all my clothes and accessories inside the closet and decide to call her. She picks up after six rings.
"What?" She sounds annoyed.
"Hey, you sound annoyed. What happened?"
"This ugly old ass man is getting on my nerves." She says with gritted teeth.
"Who? The Dean?"
"Who else then?"
I laugh.
"What did he do?"
"Don't even get me started on what he did."
"Just say."
"See, last year I flunked so he said that I have to be present for extra classes during the weekends at seven thirty in the morning."
I started laughing.
"Hey, stop laughing you idiot!"
"I-It's so f-funny t-that I c-can't" I reply laughing.
"You should feel sorry for me but you are instead laughing. You are a bad friend Summer."
"Yeah right." I say sarcastically agreeing.
"Now done talking about the old creep. We are wasting our time. Anyways, why did you call me?"
"Oh yeah right. Actually I wanted to ask you WHY DO YOU HAVE SO MUCH OF CLOTHES? It's like you brought a room of clothes."
She laughs.
"You know I die for parties right? Simple. For parties, honey. I'll for sure go for at least fifty and I don't like repeating clothes."
"Oh yes. How can I forget that? I'm so dumb."
"Didn't know that before?"
"Hey you mean trash."
She starts to laugh and I roll my eyes.
"Anyways, I gotta go. I have to go sign up for my new weekend 'hobby' which is going to be super fun." She says sarcastically.
I laugh and say, "Sure go ahead. I'm so jealous of you."
"Shut up."
I can feel her rolling her eyes but who cares. I keep on laughing when she just hung up.
"Hello? Hello Yvonne?"
I throw my phone on my bed sand continue laughing when my phone rings. It was Yvonne.
"What happened? Did the Dean extend your new weekend holiday to weekdays too." I tease her.
"Shut up, Summer. I'll choke you when I come back."
I shut up. I was done laughing anyways.
"After signing up, I have to go back to my place for some shit. I don't know what is it but mom called so I'm going. I'll be back by around five thirty and the party starts at six thirty so please be ready when I come back. I'll do my makeup there but I'll dress up from home. Cool?"
"Yeah, cool. By the way, I hope you know how lucky you are that your home is so near."
"Yeah, I know. Perks of being a neighbourhood kid to the college. Anyways, I called you up again to tell you this. I gotta go. Bye"
"Bye."
I spend the next couple hours talking to my family and reading Cecelia Ahern's Perfect. I was done reading 'Flawed' before I came here and the moment I started reading 'Perfect', I was in love with it. I think 'Perfect' is better than 'Flawed' because of many reasons but especially of one big solid reason. I ship Carrick and Celestine more than I ship Art and Celestine. I just love the chemistry between Carrick and Celestine and that made me so addicted to the book. Meeting Cecelia Ahern was one of my dreams when I was little and still is. Now I keep thinking that if I get to meet her one day, I'll thank her for making Carrick and Celestine endgame. I finish reading the book by late noon and I feel satisfied with the ending. I lie on my bed and keep thinking on how Carrick and Celestine' lives would probably turn out if it wasn't a fictional story but a real one. I love doing that. I was thinking about their wedding when I saw the clock. It was thirty thirty already. I can't believe I was daydreaming about a fictional couple for forty five minutes straight.
I quickly got up and get ready for a shower. I take a quick ten minutes shower and start with my makeup. I was never a big fan of makeup but I did it sometimes. After I was done with my makeup, I take a quick glance of the clock. It was five ten already and I still didn't decide what to wear. Yvonne will be arriving soon. After five minutes of choosing, I finally decide to wear my suspender mini black skirt with my semi high neck white full sleeve and paired it with my black black boots which reaches my thigh. The weather was quite chilly due to the fall season. I tied my hair down and messed it up a bit, leaving a few in the front. When I was finally done, I decide to give her a call. She picks up after four rings.
"I'm ready. Where are you?"
"I'm outside our hostel. Bye"
She hangs up just like that and after a few seconds, I hear her footsteps.
"And I'm here." She says.
"Woah Summer, you look awesome."
"Thank you. What are you wearing?"
"Oh, I'm wearing a two piece outfit. I'll show you."
Her outfit was a satin fabric sleeveless mini blouse and pants, tide at the top and flared at the bottom. She paired her outfit with her black buckle stiletto pointed heels.
"It's so awesome human!" I exclaimed.
"Oh yes. Won't you feel cold? It's chilly outside."
"The party house is warm. Very warm so I won't need it."
"But we gotta walk from here to the part house right?"
"What? No! I have my car back. That's why I went home. Actually mom wanted me to take back my car with me so that traveling will be easier for me. She is cool. I know that already."
"Yes. Very cool...But wait."
"How did you go back home without your car then?"
"Oh, my brother came to pick me up. I called him."
"Oh."
"Now can we please move if you are done with your questions?"
"Oh yeah. Sure. Let's go human."
We go downstairs and meet Mrs Johnson when Yvonne approaches her and tells her that we are heading for the party tonight in the party house. She nods and tells us to be back by twelve at the max. We agree and move out. I ask Yvonne how is she so cool with us going for parties on a college night and she say, "College darlin'."
Now I understand why college is said to be so great.
