Chapter 75: Chapter 75

Marigold

“hey, be careful” I warned sternly with a deep frown while pointing my index finger at Wilbur. He relaxed on the couch and burst into hysteric laughter

“heyyy” I wined and pouted. Why was he laughing at me?

“stop it!” I yelled at him and even hit his chest to make him stop but he sat on the floor and continued to laugh.

“I wonder how you clean your ceiling fan, you always have to climb a twice as tall stool” he said and I sniffed. He was teasing me because of my height.

“stop it Will” I said and he stopped laughing

“I'm not that short” I said and he smirked

“yeah, you're just perfect” he said and took my hand but I snatched it back

“oh come on, you know I was joking right” he said and I stood up from the couch and walked away towards the kitchen

“come on baby, I'm sorry!” he yelled after me but I ignored him and entered the kitchen. I opened the kitchen fridge and brought out an ice-cream cup. I had dropped it in there earlier today. I opened it and dug in a spoon then scooped out a large amount

“baby” Will called, he was leaning against the door frame

I took in the ice-cream and my whole mouth hurt because it was too much. My teeth literally froze

“oh my God” I exclaimed and opened my mouth. I began to breathe through my mouth while trying to lick it so it could quickly melt. I'm very sure I looked hideous doing that

“you know you're weird right?” Will asked rhetorically

I glared at him and continued my little action. I heard him chuckle and then he walked to me.

He gently collected my ice-cream cup and the spoon. Thank God it was just remaining little in my mouth and I was no longer looking weird

“there's something I wanna tell you” he said while looking into my eyes. He seemed serious

“what?” I asked after a few seconds of silence in order to swallow

“it's... It's about me.” he said

“I wanted to tell you earlier at the restaurant” he added

“uhm, okay. You can tell me now” I said, forgetting I was feigning a 'jokey' anger at him

“Mari, when I was a teenager I was always indoors and I didn't go to an open school” he said

“I know, you told me that already” I said and collected the ice-cream from him

“I had this teacher, he was teaching me physics and he—”

“—oh my God Wilbur!” Eliza screamed and that had cut him shut

“Eliza, hey” Will said and she ran and hugged him

‘‘there's no way you're gonna tell me you didn't come with it” she said while peering into his eyes

“yeah, yeah I brought it” he said and she squealed

“brought what?” I asked cause I didn't know what they were talking about

“come on!” she squealed again and dragged him away

“wait... Eliza!” I called but she had already pulled him out of the kitchen. I sighed softly and began to eat my ice-cream

Eduardo

I tapped my fingers on the desk and waited for the email I was expecting from my doctor. My mom had booked a compulsory appointment with my doctor and I wanted to cancel it. I already sent him an email saying he should cancel it and I was awaiting his reply

I looked at my fingertips and grinned, I've really got to pay someone a visit tonight

The email came in and the doctor said he wasn't going to cancel the appointment but postpone it instead. I got really pissed off that he'd say no to the order I gave him.

I'll deal with him later after I send a text to Will

Wilbur

I rubbed the towel around my neck on my hair to drain out the water. I was standing in front of the mirror but I wasn't looking at my reflection.

My phone began to beep and I slowly walked to where I kept it on the bed. I picked it and it was an anonymous message that said I'M GONNA MAKE YOU MISERABLE

I shook immediately and goose bumps stood up all over my flesh.

I read the text again and I was scared. I've never gotten a message like this and I prayed never to have. I know a couple of people who got such messages and things didn't go well with them

I managed to drop the phone and dress up. Then I forwarded the message to my manager. He was shocked and he filed a report immediately
