CHAPER 13

The next day in the morning Holly woke up to the ringing on her phone, just when she was about to answer the phone it went off. She looked to see who it was. It was her work place; there was a voice mail so she listens to it.

Oh crap I forgot about that said Holly as she rubs her eyes while redialling the number

G: Hey just got your voice mail, is everything ok.

O: Remember that project you signed for few months ago.

H: Yes

O: You do know that you are supposed to be there in four days right.

H: I totally forgot about it, I have a lot on my plate right now. Is it ok if I cancel last minute?

O: That's not possible, we can't find someone in three days, you should have told us in time so that we could find a cover.

H: Ok

O: You are off today and tomorrow, we need you to come in on Monday to sign some paper work and we are leaving Tuesday early in the morning at about 5 am.

She hangs up the phone and throws it to the wall with anger. She had totally forgotten about the project she signed for few months ago ,before she met Gail. She has to go and teach some students in New York for few months. She got out of bed and made her way to the bathroom.

It was about 12:30 pm and almost everyone was there. Oliver, Steve, Traci, Dov and Andy were all there watching the game. Gail was in her room. Almost everyone has tried to wake her up to come and watch the game but all she said was that she was not in the mood.

Traci and Andy were seating by the kitchen table while the boys were watching the game. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Andy stood up looked and asked Chris if he had invited anyone else, before he could answer Andy opened the door and was surprised to see Holly.

A: Heyy

H: Hey how are you

I am fine thanks said Andy as she holds the door open for Holly to come in. She followed Andy and they sat down in the kitchen.

H: Hey Traci

T: Holly how are you, where have you been.

H: I have been around, it's just I am working most of the time

They continued talking for a while and then Chris joined them.

"Oh Hey Holly you made it, I thought last night you said you are working". Andy and Traci looked at him and it's like he read their minds. Holly was here last night.

"Oh really said" Traci smiling at Andy. "We watched a movie with GAIL "said Chris.

They continued talking about work and it went to talk about sports and the game. The girls joked about how violent the game is.

H: Where is Gail?

C: She is in her room

A: Oh yer she said she is not waking up for anything today, we have all tried to get her to get out of bed but she refused, you know how she gets when you keep on pushing the buttons when she says no.

Holly pretended like she didn't know what they were own about, but she exactly knew what they were saying.

T: We have been trying to get Gail to talk for weeks but she won't say anything, has she told you about the guy she is dating.
