Part VII
"Hmmm...Tallie...hehehe..." "Shut up, John!! Someone punch him to sleep," yelled Jim. He was carrying John on his back. Larry laughed silently. "Here, take my keys and open the door." Brian took the keys from Jim and tried to unlock the door as instructed. John, still drunk and almost unconscious, did not stop talking to himself. "Hurry up, Brian!! He's gonna break my back!" complained Jim. "Sorry, it's too dark in the hallway. I can't see much," replied Brian as he tried to find the keyhole. "Just drop him on the floor. That'd wake him up," said Kelly spitefully. "Haha, very funny," replied Jim with no humor. "Okay. Going in," said Brian as he pushed the door open. Jim, sweating like crazy, mumbled to himself as he walked in. Larry turned on the lights. Jim dropped John on the floor. He made a loud thud sound.
"I don't believe this," said Brian, "this was supposed to be a night for celebration." "That is not the issue here," Jim spoke sharply. Kelly nodded in an agreement. "Yeah---- I can't believe he actually loves Sky's girlfriend." "Who loves WHO????" A very familiar voice spoke and everyone turned around and gasped after seeing who was standing by the door. "Ha...hi! You are back! So how was your date??" laughed Jim nervously. Sky glanced at him and walked over to John who was lying on the floor, somewhat unconscious. "Yo. Wake up!" Sky tapped John's shoulder lightly. John rolled over and moaned. "Uhh." "What's going on here?" questioned Sky, looking directly at Jim. Jim pointed at John and replied, "As you can see, he's drunk." Larry knelt down next to John and shook him. "Man--- go to your room and sleep.c'mon." John opened his eyes, just a bit. He was blinded by light for a second. Everything was blurry, he couldn't see a thing. He then turned his head towards Larry. "Tallie.you're here." He then grabbed Larry's arm. Larry's eyes grew huge. "What?! No, look, I'm not TALLIE, I'm LARRY. Man, don't make a scene here. Here, I'll take you to your room." "I love you Tallie.stay with me." Sky stood still, his body frozen. He could not believe what was happening. "What's going on here? Someone tell me!! Why is he.???" Sky stopped himself. He could very well see what was going on. Larry sighed. He tried to stand up but John pulled his arm.
"Don't leave me.please."

"Zoë, telephone," said Mira. She was Zoë's friend from childhood, now her roommate. "ARGH!!!" Zoë got up in a rage. She didn't have a morning class so she was hoping to sleep in. She snatched the phone from Mira and shouted. "HELLO????" "Hey! Don't yell to your brother like that!" Kelly yelled back from the other side. Zoë calmed herself. "What do you want??" "I have to talk to you about something important so be at that cafe in front of your school by noon today. Be there on time. Actually, just be there. Or else you will be sorry. Later then." Zoë yawned as she was listening to the dial tone. "Stupid idiot.thinks he's all that.see if I care!" mumbled Zoë as she slammed the phone down.
