Chapter 9

It was about 7.25pm, after school I went up stairs into my room and went straight to sleep. Some one had been calling me since 7.15 and I couldn't be bothered to pick the phone up. The phone was buzzing again.

"hello" I said when I picked it up.

"hi, Katie. Why haven't you been holding the phone." Julian said from the other end of the line.

"oh, hi Julian. I've been sleeping. How are you."

"I'm fine. What about you? How was school.?"

"well…….well you know, always boring."

"yeah, I know what you mean. Katie, I was just thinking that, would you like to go out sometimes."

"yeah, sure."

"o.k., great, that's all."

"o.k. bye."

And that was the end of my first call. I'm bursting to go to the loo. I was about to leave the room to go to the toilet, when another phone call came. I picked it up and said

"hello."

"hi, Katie. It's me Julian. I forgot to say something, I missed you today."

"I missed you too babes."

"Jake, said that he bumped into you today."

"yeah, we did. Did he say any thing else."

"no, just said that he almost forgot you."

"right."

"o.k. bye."

"o.k. bye babes."

And that was the end of my second call. I stepped out of the room when the phone started buzzing again. I couldn't take it any more, and the phone kept buzzing and I went back to pick it up.

"hello." I said.

"hey, Katie, I also forgot to tell you that I'll pick you up at 7.30pm for dinner." Said Julian.

"oh, Julian, yes that's fine"

"o.k. then bye" he said and I put the phone down.

And know I was really bursting to go to the toilet. As soon as I put down the third call 3 seconds later the fourth call came. I knew that it was going to be Julian this time so I grabbed the phone and said " listen babes this is your fourth call in 3 minutes. Please stop calling me because I'm bursting to go to the loo. I'll call you back after. Is that o.k."

Listen

"Julian, babes is that alright. I'll call you back, bye love you." I was waited for Julian to say something. And that's when it striked me, when I heard some else's voice on the other end of the phone and not Julian's.

"Katie, it's me Kai"

"Kai." I said, in a shaky voice.

"yeah, it's me Kai, not Julian……… so after all you've been two timing me, behind my back. And that boy at school was right, when he said you were Julian's girl friend. And then you kiss me. You bitch."

"fuck, you, Kai. you're the one that's being two timing me, you asshole. I can't believe you've just been using me like this. Do you think I don't know about it? do you think I'm that stupid that I can't even see pink lip stick on your lips."

"Katie, what you on about."

"I'm talking about you kissing another BITCH. And don't try lying about it Kai. on Sunday I went round to see you, remember."

"yeah"

"well, lips stick mark don't appear from no were, so there must have been some one in your room. So you know what, I thought if I can't carry on like this then let me, I might as well go with some one that loves me and not use me. So I won't bother saying any more."

"Katie, I have never kissed another girl, since we got together again. I swear to you."

"Kai, stop lying o.k. bye." And I slammed the phone down. After I put the phone down I called Julian to wait for me after school. And eventually I went to the loo. And that was the last call I got on Monday.
