Chapter 49: Hatest Girl in Town

“Why can’t you just pick it up?” My friends and I: Elaine, Christine, and Rose were having a garden party over at Christine’s house.

Her mom got a passion for all kinds of flowers, and it was a tradition to celebrate the end of spring at her place because of that.

We got the whole weekend free, so we decided to come over for coffee and chatter. I am reading a magazine, Christine’s surfing the net on her laptop, and Elaine’s painting her fingernails while Rose’s reading a book.

My phone has been ringing and everyone knows who is calling.

“Why can’t you just pick it up?” Elaine repeated.

“Why can’t you just leave it alone?” I looked up and goes back to reading my magazine. Rose rolls her eyes then goes back to her book.

“Because it’s noisy?”

I sighed and then picked up my phone.

“Fine.” I pushed the “ignore” button hard.

“What?” I tried to act like I did nothing.

“You can’t run away from him forever,” Christine said.
