Nathan exhaled in frustration and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Oh God, please help me."

"I need more time," she whispered to no one in particular as she tried to think of solutions to her problem."Willow"Her grandmother's frail voice called causing her to scramble to her feet and run to her side. "Yes, grandma?" Willow replied curtly. The old woman smiled at the young girl and raised her hand. Willow quickly took it. "Grandma please don't stress yourself," she said to her.

    "Willow, come on!" Eve cried out making Willow to drop her phone on the table. Even though her phone wasn't on speaker, she was convinced Evelyn's voice could be heard throughout the whole library."Eve, stop shouting!" she hissed into the phone. Eve scoffed. "Why must you be so boring, Will? The guy likes you, so go out with him!" she exclaimed.

I'm not stupid," she said.The line went silent for some time and Willow looked at her phone to see if Evelyn had hung up."Eve-"I'm sorry, Willow. I didn't even think about that.

    "I thought you had a class by five, this is already six thirty," Nathan said to Chase as they walked into a diner. "The lecture called it off and now I have free time to myself. Let's order something greasy for ourselves," Chase said and went to sit at an empty booth. Nathan rolled his eyes at his best friend and went to sit across him."I pray to find a cute chick here," Chase mumbled. "Shut your dirty ass mouth," Nathan glared at him and he grinned in response. "You need to get laid, bro. Crystal will soon make you run mad with the way she's chaining you down," Chase laughed.Nathan was about to reply him when they got interrupted. "Good evening, can I take your order?" They looked up to see a girl standing there with a notepad.

    "Bye, Miranda," Willow said to her friend as she adjusted her sweatshirt. Miranda looked up from her phone and nodded at her. "See you tomorrow, say hi to Evelyn for me," she said and Willow nodded before walking out of the changing room.The diner was now almost empty since it was already nighttime. Willow walked out of the diner and was now walking down the scanty street when she heard an oddly familiar whistle. Refusing to acknowledge it, she continued walking."Hey, sexy waiter girl!"Then she knew why it was familiar. Not responding, she tried to walk faster but her short legs weren't on her side as she felt someone grab her and pull into a dark alley. Even if she screamed, nobody would hear her."What do you want?" she asked trying not to let her fear show. In front of her were five lust filled men and it scared her to her core."You denied us dinner and now we have to get it ourselves," the bald man with a skull tattoo said. "Then go and buy it," She tried to play smart. "That
