Manny glanced towards the phone. She knew who it was and she could practically map out the conversation that would come about if she were to pick up that very receiver.
RING
Manny rolled over so her back would face the phone, trying to block it out,
RING
Manny, getting more and more aggravated took a pillow and covered her head with it.
RING
Go away, please, go away, Manny kept saying in her head.
RING
Finally, Manny turned, grabbed the phone, and threw it at the wall. She laid back and put her hands over her face.
Paige came into her room with a cold wet washcloth and a glass of water. She sat down besides the troubled girl and put the washcloth on her forehead.
"You need too try to cool down Hun, I mean, yea Emma is annoying but, she just cares about you." Paige said trying to comfort her.
"If she cared then she would leave me alone!!!" Manny snapped back.
"Well, she would if she knew what was going on" Paige said with a sigh.
"I told you, I am not, under any circumstances, going to tell her!!!"
"You know she's going to find out sooner or later."
"I prefer later." Manny said under her breath.
"Well, you need to try and keep your temper down, look what you're doing to your stuff." Paige said pointing at the mangled phone on the floor.
"Yea well, soon I think I'm going to need a punching bag," Manny said with a smile. It was the first time she had smiled that day which made Paige happy.
"Paige, I want to thank you for helping me. I mean, I don't think anyone else COULD help me."
"No problem, this can be scary, so I'm going to be here for you."
RING
They both stared at the mangled phone on the floor.
"But that," Paige said in a low voice, "that's just creepy!!!"
Ashley walked along the sidewalk, thinking about tomorrow's history test that she was sure to do poorly on. Her thoughts slowly flooded from school to boys. Then from boys, to Craig. She liked Craig, a lot, but he seemed so respectful. She thought if he knew what she had done, then he wouldn't give her a second glance.
The wind blew and a chill ran up Ashley's back.
I should have worn tights instead of fishnets today, Ashley thought. But as much as she tried not too, her mind went back to the thoughts of Craig. She didn't want to keep having sexual meetings with him almost every week. But something in her kept going back to him. Or rather "IT" as she had started to call him.
She knew she didn't have feelings for him any more. She must only do it for the surge of sex.
"But maybe." she started to say herself, then stopped. Those too words got her into everything in the first place. She wanted to silence those words from herself forever. And she vowed to that very minute.
She came around the corner to the park. It seemed that no one was there so she decided to just cut right through it to her house.
She walked past the sand bow, past the swings, and approached the jungle gym. As she was walking past the tub slid, she heard something. More of SOMEONE then a something. She stopped and listened again.
Yes! She definitely heard someone! She walked slowly around to see who was in there. And there she saw it.
Jimmy.
Hazel.
Kissing.
The picture of those two stuck in her mind. She turned, and ran. Through the park, down the street, to her house, and up to her room. She sat on her bed, crying more then she had ever cried before. She hugged herself, and brought her head up slowly. And she whispered very softly.
"But maybe.."
