Eighty seven

CHAPTER 87

GLENN

As it turned out, for the next couple of weeks, I was pretty much alone with her most of the time, still searching for that one chance to tell her about my hidden secret.

It seemed more difficult as the day passed, each moment right from the time we spent at work till the moment when we did everything from going to the mall to having lunch together, each of these moments was filled with that desire to tell her.

Something kept the words back in my mind however, it was hard to tell what but that desire to tell her was shrouded by a fear of the outcome.

This Wednesday however proved a different point and provided the perfect opportunity for me to do that—

Anna and I started going to the movies twice a week. Once, on the weekend and the other Wednesdays, Anna had thought it would be the perfect chance for me to distract myself away from the fact that he still hasn't called after the misunderstanding we had.

While I felt pained and hurt In a way that he might have suspected me, it didn't take away the fact that he most definitely hasn't stumbled on the envelope just yet or perhaps he had and was too ashamed of speaking to me about it—could that be why he had not called?

Either way, the movies provided a kind of comfort.

Good thing it was her time to pay, while locking the door to my apartment after we walked out Mr Otis Walked up to me.

While my heart skipped, I was left shell shocked when he handed a folded note to me with a smile. I was still wondering right there in my hands was my eviction notice when Anna grabbed the paper from my hands.

"You don't have to worry about this." She tossed the note still folded Into the bin. "We will settle this soon."

I was all grumpy but I agreed with her as we took a one way ride to the movie's.

Immediately we walked in, I was floored at what was on for the movie of the day.

"Twilight!" I exclaimed.

Anna who was walking behind me with two carton's of Pop -corn assumed to herself that my exclamation had merely been from excitement.

"Yeah, the second edition though…" She looked at me shocked. "So you haven't seen anything about it yet?"

If only she knew I was living an actual real supernatural life,she wouldn't be asking that question… I thought to myself.

"Glenn!" She nudged me and almost spilled the coke.

"Hey!" I protested rather loudly.

"You've not answered my question, I was thinking this was going to be a surprise and you might like it probably because you… " she leaned closer and Whispered. " You stole that envelope. "

" You are crazy. " I smirked before looking around as though Santiago was within our perimeters.

" Talking about stealing from someone. " She stuck to replacing his name with that phrase as it was custom to do …

"Have he called yet?" She asked.

"Not yet." I grimaced. "I am getting worried, what if he found out."

"I feel he is still mad at you for that other night."

"But I didn't do anything."

"Yeah, I know. " She paused so she could hand over the tickets. "Remember I told you, he looked at you funny. Maybe he knows. "

In a way the use of that exact word now sparked up a strange dreadful feeling, in my head I was starting to imagine if by chance he found out what I was.

The whole feeling was in my head replaying itself like a bad movie script to be factual. I really didn't want him to find out… I dreaded their feelings.

We took our seats and had to be quiet through the almost one and a half session of the movie. It was my first time seeing the movie but something about Jacob reminded me about myself… We were both in search of a lost love and feeling insecure about it.

My mind was filled with giving into the very thought of diversity, enough that I could imagine myself slowly becoming like I would say into a state of nothingness.

Being this type of person gave me an insight of what truly all this was about. While I had my dysfunction as a werewolf I had noticed that being around these humans gave me a type of balance.

It was as though I was accepting the very idea of who I was and it made it easy for me to do exactly that.

We were done with the movie and she was talking nonchalantly about it all through our long walk to that bus station.

I could feel my wolf rousing inside of me as we walked, worried I stared up at the clouds . It wasn't going to be due for my transition till the next day and it worried me alot.

The past Luna night had been filled with me dealing with madness, it was probably the reason the spare room in the basement had a cage with dangling chains.

Her phone buzzed and she picked it up. "Alright I'd be there." She hangs up quickly.

" I would have to go, it is my turn for girls night… I almost forgot that it was tomorrow. "

I heard most of what she said somewhere in my mind as I was still having that strange feeling.

She took my reluctance as a clue to maybe being angry or annoyed.

"Do you want to come?" She asked.

Before I could answer she took my silence as saying yes as she waved down the bus

Soon we were heading home, not to my home but hers. She had invited me over for girls night, and I would spend a lot of quality time with her and two other girls she had always talked about.

They were waiting at the door as we arrived with a box of pizza. I never had another human friend in my life aside from Anna and tonight I was meeting two.

Since it was pajama night, I took one of Anna's before heading out.

"Is that the real color of your eyes or you are wearing a contact lens." Mia, one of the girls, asked as she cooed over when I said yes .

" You are very beautiful and have all the guys after you." Kate clasped her hands together.

"Yeah, she have one a very handsome one at that.—"

"Really!" They Chorused. " Tell us about him. " Kate begged.

" There is nothing to say, he is with another. "

" Scum! " Kate hollered whole, filling the cups up. "You know what let's drink to breaking guys hearts "

We all cheered before sipping and slowly again I drifted back to their midst.

Twenty minutes passed…

By now the trio were at a different level of drunkenness except I most definitely, it took a lot to get me to that State.

The interesting part about everything was that I had very little time alone. Meaning, I. was caught right there where the Lunar madness for that month came a day early.

I totally didn’t care, all I wanted to do was to get myself away from them before I did anything stupid.

Running back home was far from it, the intensity of the pain was so much it sent me to my knees. I had never felt this way in my life.

As the not so full moon was invoking a full effect on my supernatural well-being and anatomy, I figured it might be a good time to get away.

I spitted on the ground as they laughed thinking I was drunk, I stood up quickly and dashed to her bathroom.

There I stood yelping in pain, this was supposed to be the perfect day that I so much wanted but at the moment it could be the worst.

I zoned out from humanity and was embracing my beast mode slowly.

I knew it could get worse so I locked the door by bolting the door while looking up at the window.

I thought about it for a while, the scent of the trio filled the room and I battled with myself to hold the feeling back in

I didn’t want to end up being in the news for mauling three women, what tragic headline would that be.

While still thinking about it, I heard a knock from the door.

I hesitated fighting with my soul to say ‘yes.’

"Are you fine? We are worried about you."

"Go— " my voice came out in a low growl though i tried to numb the rest of the words away.

Poor Ann didn’t take the news well. She was still worried and very drunk, nonetheless, she left. I was left all by myself, looking up in the direction of the window one last time. I threw myself out of the window, shattering it in the process.

"Who is there?" I heard Anna's voice from the room all startled.
