Chapter Three: A Mysterious Phone Call

"And I just don't know what to do, Meggie!" Christine burst out frustratedly, gesturing wildly for emphasis.
Meg, who had been sitting there listening to her friend rant for the past ten minutes, sighed internally.
"Well, then it's a good thing that you dumped him, isn't it?" she snapped back irritably.

Christine groaned.
"Yesssss... but now I've got him knocking at our front door every day, begging for me to take him back!" the brunette huffed, running her hands through her thick curls in exasperation.
Meg winced at the reminder.
"All right..." the blonde girl sighed reluctantly.
"Well, we could skip town?"
Christine laughed.
"If only..." she muttered dryly.
"But, unfortunately we still have school!"

Meg pouted.
"Then what do you suggest?" she inquired, mock-glaring at her friend.
But before Christine could reply, the downstairs phone rang and the blonde jumped jumped to her feet, grateful for an escape.
"I'll get it!" she called out, already bounding out the door and down the stairs.
Shaking her head wryly, Christine followed her friend into the parlour.
