"Your knight in shining armour"....

"Ok ok....i believe you...... Soooo..... Are you going to call him back?"

"I.... I.... Want to... I really really want to but every time I get to his number, my hands goes weak"...

   "OK... Give your phone to me, I'll call him for you"......

"What! No way!"....

I could tell she was going to pounce on me if I didn't do something soon..

    "Ugh.... Fine I'll call him"...

"Right now!"

    "Ok ok fine..... Dialing".... ---but just as I was about to pull up his number, my phone rang... My aunt lil was calling.... Odd she never does....

      "Charlotte?"

From her voice you could tell she was crying.....
