•Crying voice•

In reality she can easily go to home by booking a cab for herself but she remembers Mrs Rion's words very well that no matter what she always has to come home with her driver or Victon and everywhere she goes she just has to take the driver with her and that's why a personal driver has been hired for her. But there was another reason as well because of which she didn't wanted to book a cab because for the very first time she got this opportunity to go with him to home and that to be by his bike. She knew no girl of their school... not even his girlfriends have ever got the opportunity to go with him on his bike. And it's one of her wishes to go with him while she will sit on his back holding him very tightly and feel that moment with him. Just this mere thought managed to bring a very big smile on her face. And if she wants this to be happen in reality then she have to tell him that she will go with him today.

But here he is nowhere to be seen and also she has been trying his number several times but he is not picking up her phone. 'Is he really upset on me because of yesterday?' She thought and sighed sadly.

She and her friends did their lunch and headed to their next class. She didn't know why but she's having a gut feeling that something really very bad is gonna happen today but she can't figure out what! May be it's just her imagination.

Finally the class got over and the trio left from there. Nancy and Lisa's drivers were already there. They both knew that her driver is not coming today.

"Did he picked up the call?" Lisa asked her refering to Victon.

"No... not yet and I don't know why." She replied sighed out helplessly.

"You can come with any of us. We can drop you at your home." Nancy offered her help but she denied them because she has other ideas in her mind.

"It's ok, no need to worry. I'm trying him for the last time. If he picks up then I will go with him otherwise not." She said and was secretly hoping that at least this time he will pick up her call. She didn't wanted to trouble her friends as well because their houses are in the opposite direction from hers and also how can she let go of this opportunity to sit on his bike? Only a mad girl would let go of this golden opportunity. That's why she denied them. But she knew if he won't pick up her phone this time then without any choice she has to go with one of them unfortunately.

Now again she dialled his number for the last time and finally to her relief he picked up the phone but wait it was not him who is speaking on the otherside but someone else.

"Hello?" The girl on the otherside said.

"Hello, Can you please give the phone to Luther?" Stella said politely.

"Are you Isabella? His rumoured step sister." The girl on the other side spoke.

"Ahh...yes." She responded.

"Actually he is not here, he left his phone here and is not practicing the football. Tell me why did you call him, I will deliver the message to him. It seems very urgent I think because you are calling him non-stop within few hours." The girl said in her full of attitude voice. 'Who is she and what she is doing with my Victon's phone.' Stella thought and scoffed at her internally.

"By the way can you tell me who are you?" She asked her in the same way while she got slightly angered.

"I'm his girlfriend Mariana. So just tell me how can I help you?" Mariana said and at that time Stella wanted to slap very hard across her face due to her attitude but still she tried to control her rage and told her in a very calm voice.

"I just wanted to ask him that when his practice session will end because my driver is not here so I'm going home with him today." Stella declared. Then that girl Mariana didn't said anything for a moment. For a moment Stella thought that she cut off the call from the other side but no she didn't.

"Hello, Mariana are you there?" She again asked her.

"Ohh, yeah yeah. I'm here. Okey, wait for a minute. Once I get a respond from him then I will call you back!" Mariana said and without waiting for her answer she cut off the call.

Now Stella was burning in jealousy. Victon had never ever let her touch his phone and here he is giving his whole total phone to someone else! This thought just made her really upset. She then told Nancy and Lisa that Mariana will gonna call her after sometime and just like a best friend they both also waited with her for the call. And then after about a minute her phone started to ring once again.

"Hello Isabella, he told me that you can wait if you want. His session is gonna end at 8pm. Can you wait till then?"

"Yes, yes tell him I'm waiting. Can I come there Mariana?"

"No, Isabella. No one is allowed here except the cheerleaders. But he told me to tell you that if you want to wait then you can wait in the common room for the students in building no.5. Once his practice session gets over he will call you back."

"Ok, thanks Mariana. Tell him that I'm waiting there." With that Stella cut off the call.

Then she told her friends about it and they again got so worry about her and insisted her to go with them instead of waiting here for hours. But she just can't let go of the opportunity anyhow.

So she tried to assure them, "It's ok. I'll be fine. Nothing is gonna happen with me."

They were hesitating at first for leaving her alone but they didn't have any other choice. Their homes are very far from the school. So they had to go leaving her there alone but not before telling her that if she faces any problem then she will call them immediately.

Then they went to their respective homes while she headed for the common room. When she reached there she saw the room was oddly quite. No one was there, not even a single student. Suddenly the fear started to crawl inside her mind. 'Why would V tell me to stay in this common room alone? He clearly knows that how much I'm scared of the loneliness. I think something is wrong.' She thought to herself and her heart was constantly telling her to get out of this place but she didn't do that and waited there for about half n hour until she decided that she can't stay here anymore all alone. With that she was going to call him once again but suddenly she heard a girl's crying voice.

Following the source of the sound when she went out she saw that there was a girl who was crying so hard and was laying on the floor while clutching her left ankle painfully...
