I dashed out of my room and down the stairs until i stopped and remembered something. What was i going to tell my parents? I stopped half way the stairs and thought about the most realistic and persuasive excuse. Come on, think of something! Then it hit me. No, it literally hit me.
I rubbed the back of my head in pain as I turned around to a furious Abdul and a laughing Sarah.
"What is wrong with you two?" I questioned still annoyed by the fact that something hit my head.
"Sarah is such a brat!" Abdul exclaimed.
"Hmm, excuse me. Is that any way my assistant should be talking?" Sarah declared in a serious tone. Ooo, she was really pissing him off.
"That doesn't explain whatever just hit me in the head." I demanded.
"Your demon sister wanted to throw that shoe at me. Yes, a shoe!" Abdul explained.
I stared at Sarah before erupting into laughters. Oh she was good at this. Abdul gave us both death glanced until his expression changed. He suddenly turned to me and looked at me confusingly.
"Why are you dressed? And horribly might I say." He asked. I gave him a glare.
"The house is so hectic! You and Sarah screaming. Mum and dad watching Tv with the volume at 100. I just wanted to get fresh air, that's it. And I don't dress horribly!" I nagged while looked down at my hoodie and sweatpants. Ok, maybe it was a bit bad...
Abdul gave me a look before he let out a sigh. I prayed he wouldn't ask too much questions and just let me leave.
"Fine, you are turning 16. I should trust you but I want back quick. Got it?"
"Fine daddy." I mumbled to Abdul.
I rapidly headed to door before Abdul changed his mind. Now that that was done, I need to go to Barney's Ice-cream.
I strolled through the lights of the town. This town wasn't the empty or dark kind of town. There was much lighting and many people so it was safe most of the time. However there were a few places around that were empty. I reached Barney's ice-cream and went inside. The ice-cream shop was the best in town and I absolutely loved it to bits. As I waited in the ice-cream shop for ten minutes, I couldn't help but think what was so important that James had to call me at 9 in the night.
Finally I got a text from James. I was confused to what it said at first but then I fully understood it.
Barney's, Left, straight, Right, straight, corner to your left.
They were directions. I quickly got out of Barney's and did exactly what the text told me to do. As I looked around I knew I noticed the neighbourhood but from where. As I turned right and walked straight, I knew were I was. Just a little ahead was Angela's house. I didn't need to know which corner to go to next because I already remembered. It was the ally I heard James talking to someone. The day it was Angela's birthday. The day he tried to called me from here for some kind of help.
At first, I hesitated to enter the ally but I knew I had to. I didn't come all the way here for no reason. I creeped into the pitch-black gloomy ally. There were trash bins everywhere and the place looked like a dump. The more you walked in the ally, the more it got vague and timid. It was a perfect setting for a horror movie.
There was only a few lights in the ally where only showed a small part of the ally. As I walked father into the ally, I saw a illuminated silhouette at the end. I walked closer to the person.
"James? Is that you?" I asked but the person didn't reply. All of sudden, I regretted coming here.
The silhouette slowly took steps towards me. I heard the footsteps click as it's shoes touched the concrete. Oh, Allah, don't let this be one of those scenes from those horror movies where the girls makes a stupid mistake and she gets killed.
The figure stepped closer and finally his face hit the light. I stood in shock as I witnessed who it was. This was defiantly not James. My eyes widened at the picture in front of me. Was i dreaming? I rubbed my eyes just in case but once i opened them again, i saw the same figure. What was he doing here? Things just got more confusing...
"D-D-Dale?"
