Completely Missing

Xander

The first thing that came into my mind early in the morning was that girl, and guess what? She was the first one who showed up here in the cafe. 

She's right in front of me now, since I'm also at the cafe. I guess she's really into this shop. She's right there on the counter, talking to the girl I bumped yesterday using the door. Are they really buddies? I slowly walked, until I couldn't help but eavesdrop again. It seems like the girl "friend" was helping me, or maybe just insulting.

"So, do you still plan to transfer?" that friend asked this girl right in front of me who is on her elbows. "I don't know. It wouldn't make any sense, at all. maybe if he's Alex, no matter what his attitude is, I'll really transfer," this girl answered. Wait a sec, Alex?

"Why aren't you forgetting about this Alex from years ago? I mean, geez, you're twenty, girl!"

"Who cares? I just want to meet him. Again."

"And what if you'll  be married and you still haven't found him? Will you keep searching?"

"Don't worry; I'll make sure that before I turn twenty-one, he's off my mind. And, speaking of being married, I think I would get married soon too."

"What?!" her friend screamed, and that made me screamed too so that's the reason why most of the people turned their eyes onto me. "What the heck?! Are you listening?!" she screamed at me. Then, she gave her friend the bad look too. "Such an idiot," I heard her whispered before she walked out. I'm messed up now, but maybe five seconds after, I looked at the friend.

"You're definitely a mess," she said then grabbed her drink. I just went to near her and asked, "What did she mean she might get married soon?"

"Are you serious? You're asking me that question? I was shocked too! You screamed together with me, right? Then, how would I know about it?"

"Yeah, right. Just give me some americano."

"Yes, sir."

She just turned around and got me my coffee, but while she's preparing it, I turned around and saw her talking to the phone then when she hanged up, I saw her looked a little at the back, this direction. I feel like she got a thought of what happened a while ago. After she looked a little, she directed towards her car and drove off. "Your Americano is-"

"I'll pay you later!" I screeched and ran when I got my coffee. I headed to my car and started it. I mean, it's not my car. It's to my little brother. I just borrowed it. I followed that girl, and luckily, she was three cars ahead of mine. I can still see her. 

I don't know why I followed her, anyway. Maybe she's going to school, maybe she's going to the mall or anywhere. I just want to formally meet her and explain the stuff that happened a while ago. It seems like she's pretty pissed off.

Twenty minutes later, it was already one car which is in between our cars and I feel like we're just turning around. I keep on seeing the same places. Did she notice me and trying to test me out? My dear, I hope she didn't.

"Oh, fudge," I whispered when she started going straight, with a fast speed. Dang it! Isn't she scared she might get a ticket for over speeding? Well, she's a daughter of a billionaire. Pretty sure she can cover that issue that fast, but heck, I'm not her!  I'm pretty sure Dad's going to kill me if I got the ticket.

All of sudden, she stopped. She was like a pro or something. Then, I noticed that we stopped in a place full of junk. It's only the two of us. I got nervous of her when she went off the car and slammed the door and she faced to me with her fierce and mad look. I didn't have the choice but to go down as well. I guess I can't hide when it comes to this girl. 

"Why in the world are you following me?!" she screamed right after when I closed the door of the car. 

"Look, I just want to say sorry about earlier, okay? I didn't mean to scare you or something."

"And you think I'm scared? What the heck? Look, psychopath, you should stop being stalker, shall we?"

"I'm not a stalker."

"Oh, right?  So, what do we call about these four turns we did and with four or three or two cars in between going off the same road over and over again?"

"Well, who stalked first? What do we call about this bump in the same school, and about this plan of transferring where we study? Huh?"

"I'm not stalking you. Why the heck would I like to transfer where this idiot studies? I went there because my mother works there and I would transfer because that might be way to find what I'm looking for. Don't be too assuming, crazy 'fake' boy. It won't deserve you."

I stopped right there. I suddenly felt embarrassed. Is it all about this Alex I heard? And about her calling me fake and a psychopath? Well, I- I couldn't blame her, could I? I'm totally a fake one. 

"Excuse me, two lovebirds," I heard someone said and I'm pretty sure it's a cop. "Oh, right. Over speeding," this girl sighed then she got her wallet. I just didn't speak and gave some money for this officer after I reached my pocket. He also handed me a ticket, and this girl. "Good thing you know about this and next time, take everything slowly, okay?" this officer said and went off. I just looked at this girl again.

"I'm not glad to see you," she lifelessly said. She opened her car and I was expecting her to go inside but she stopped for a moment to say, "I'm Erin, anyway. It's good to know each other at the last moment, right?"

Then, she went in and drove off. Geez, I'm really such an idiot. Why the heck did I do all of these stuffs? And, what did she mean about the last moment thingy? Tss, I got a wrong move.
