Chapter 36: “What is the meaning of this?”

I didn’t even realize that it’s already past eight. The screen of my phone illuminated as it showcased another message notification. It was from Blu informing me that she won’t be back home until late as she was busy with her dance practice for the upcoming competition.

I sighed. I was planning on calling her to come pick me up from Denise’s place but now I guess my only option is to take the bus home. As far as I remember the last bus that goes to the bus stop near my place leaves at half past eight, I will need to hurry if I don’t want to miss it.

Taking one last look at the ginormous building where Denise lives, I start making my way to the bus stop. On occasions like these I feel grateful for my sneakers; they are the best if you need to reach your destination on foot.
