BEAUTY CALLS Episode 5 by RUTHIE LEE

I looked straight up and found him (Endy) staring at me,
What is he doing back here again? Is he here to tell me to bathe him or clean his brain, cause I know I’ve done everything and now’s my freetime.. Till its lunch..
I glance at him and he gave me a creepy look, I wanted to give him the creepy look back but I just remembered the word “calm”
Because I know I’m not a calm person I might be, but I’m not everyone sees me as the good, nice, beautiful girl who doesn’t get angry or mad or upset, but I do get mad, angry and upset I just have to cover those up With a smile and everyone thinks I’m okay, it’s just that I don’t actually like it when people worry about me or get too comfy with me..
I glance at Endy one more time before moving to a small colourful two-person bench under a shady tree when he’s tired standing there he’ll leave. there are so many bench in this garden, I thought as I sighted two benches from afar
I sat down on the bench and sighed, the cool breeze started to blow smoothly and coolly and I closed my smiled and rest my back on the bench, enjoying the cool breeze, I suddenly opened my eyes and I saw Endy walking up to me and I cringed,
What does he want now.. I looked away pretending I didn’t see him and he walked up to me and sat down on the same bench I was sitting on.. Really?!!!!
And immediately a gust of wind blew making my long hair roar in the wind and I had to cover my face with my palm cause the breeze was too much, after some time it stopped and I wondered what kind of breeze that was..
I turned and Mr annoying was still sitting close to me and i adjusted a little but unfortunately it was a two-person bench so I couldn’t adjust and it was only two inches of space that was preventing us from touching and I had to tighten my self in the bench.. I remained quiet and so did Endy, he was looking at me and I could feel it as I stared at the floor.. Okay this is uncomfortable.. But seriously I have to say something, I suddenly turned to my left and looked at him.. And he looked away
“uhm.. E-Endy..
I said and he turned his gaze back to me and arched his brows..
“i-i believe this.. Is my freetime” I said and he nods
“I know that, but isn’t it obvious.. That I want to stay here with you” he said and fold his hands..
Be here with me? And no it is not obvious..
Why does he want to be here with me? To bore my life or be more annoying than usual..
“Oh yes that reminds me, I haven’t really have the time to know you better, how about an interview or something like that” he said,
An interview?
But I already got “this” job what does he want to interview me for?
“uhm.. Okay?” I said, and shrugged
“okay, first your full name..
“my full name’s Selene Murray” I said and he nods
“age?” he asked
“twenty two” I said plainly and he kept quiet but then continued
“okay, your date of birth?” .. Seriously dude!
“July 23rd 1997” I said and he paused for a second looked at me then nods to himself
“that means you’re not twenty two yet! But You will be next month” he said and I nod.. Yay.. He’s smart.. I didn’t expect that. . And what kind of interview is this anyway?
“okay, that’s all I need for now” he said and stood up
That’s all he needs for now?? Really!!..
“remember to make lunch this time and don’t sleep out here” he said and I nod not looking at him.. And he walked inside, at least it’s better to be alone than to be with him..
ENDY’S POV
Since I didn’t know what to ask about her anymore, I left, technically i didn’t want to leave but it seems like she was uncomfortable with me.. I’m the one who’s supposed to be uncomfortable with people but yet I’m comfortable with her..
But it’s strange though, I rememeber my mom telling me that the day I was found unconscious at my grandparents house was on July 23rd 1997.. This could mean something.. Or at the same time be useless and just a coincidence..
I walked in the house and walked to my room but first I went to check if grandma was okay, and she was, she was sound asleep,
I flopped down my bed and fixed on my headphone over my head and on my ear, and I listened to the sound of the sea and the breeze before falling asleep cause it helps me fall asleep..
:
I woke up at exactly 6pm and went downstairs, I persevered a sweet smell of Deep fried turkey and ham..
I went to the living room but found no one and then I heard small talks and laughs coming from the dining room.. . I walked in and met my grandma and “Selene” eating dinner,
“oh you’re awake” my grandma said and looked up at me.. And then Selene noticed me too.. She removed her face and turned back to her food.
“Selene made lunch it’s such a shame you missed lunch, you slept too much” grandma said and I nod.
“yeah I’m surprised too” I said and Selene looked up and smiled ..fakely.. Even her fake smiles seem real and looks beautiful
“will you like me to serve you, your food now?” she asked and I nod.. She stood up grabbed a plate and before I know it I was eating..
After eating dessert Selene did the dishes, cleaned the dining room and it was time for her to go home,
And I kind of, sorta, didn’t want her to go but what the hell do I want to do with her!
My grandma and I were in the living room when she walked up to us.. My grandma actually..
“grandma, I’ll be heading home now, goodnight” she said and my grandma smiled at her and nod lightly before saying “goodnight dear” .. She smiled back and turned but our eyes jammed, she blinked rapidly and said “goodnight” slowly walking away immediately before I could even say a reply..
Grandma and I watched a little bit of TV before she started feeling sleepy and went to her room to sleep and I went back to my room too..
I couldn’t sleep again so I started playing video games on my phone but I got bored cause I’m not my brothers.. Video games are just not my thing.. I dropped my phone and laid on my bed with my eyes closed and thankfully i manage to fall asleep again..
I woke up at three in the morning by the sound of my ringing tone and I grunt and grabbed my phone to check the caller and saw that it was my dad and I sighed and picked it up
“hello?” I heard my dad said from the other side of the line
“for god’s sake Dad, it is three in the morning why are you calling me” I said into the phone and my dad chuckled
“oh I’m sorry I just well.. I’m not asleep cause it’s. Well I just have to tell you this in case I forget when it’s broad daylight cause there will be two much work for me then, I need you to go to a formal that is holding at Kim’s company, I need you to go in place of me cause i won’t be there, I might come but I’ll be late but please go in place of me” he said and sighed
“that’s it! That’s all I need to do, go to a formal?” I said and replied with a “yes”
“well okay you didn’t have to put please you know” I said and he laughed
“I have to you know and during the formal you have to take someone with you” he said and my eyebrows arched!
“someone?” I repeated
“yes like a lady, someone to accompany you cause it’s bad luck to go to a formal alone” my dad said
Bad luck?? Since when?
“okay well sure I’ll take grandma with me” I said
“if you’re trying to make a joke Endymion it’s not funny, you know what I meant when I said take someone with you, take a girl with you like your girlfriend not my mother you air head” he cursed and i rolled my eyes even though he can’t still me
He knows I doesn’t have a girlfriend
“you know I don’t have a gir–
“girlfriend?.. He interrupted me
“don’t worry every one knows just take Josie with you” he continued
“Josie doesn’t work here anymore dad, can’t I just go to the formal alone” I groaned
“well whatever live your life, you are one boring kid, son” my dad said
“thanks, that means a lot” I said sarcastically and heard him chuckle
“and also after the formal, your brothers are coming home, I don’t know about your sister cause she never contact us with anything going on in her life.. But till then your brothers are coming home to day after tomorrow, goodnight” he said more like good morning
“sure, goodnight dad” I said and hanged up.. I can’t believe my brothers are coming home, this once quiet mansion won’t be as quiet as before. But grandma loves them so much.. Since they’re so lively, playful and not boring like me.. And since they’re triplets, who doesn’t love twins, or triplets or quadruplets..
I couldn’t sleep again so I went to take a bath and brushed my teeth and by the time I was done it was 5:15am..
I went downstairs to watch TV and at the same time wait, for Selene, what time does she get here anyways?
My grandma came downstairs, and when I said a simple good morning she told me my dad called and told me what he said..
He told her she should make sure I go to the formal with “someone” and she persuaded me to take Selene but I declined..
Selene?.. Nah.. I don’t think so.
I don’t even think she’ll want to come but to be sincere I’d like to go to the formal with her but still I’ll like to go alone because I’d like to do everything I have to do there quickly so I’ll get to come home quickly cause I don’t like being with people.
Grandma went back to her room after I told her a hundred NO about taking Selene to the formal..
I glanced at the time and it was already 7:03am I’m glad time’s fast, can wait for Selene to get here, immediately the doorbell ring and I knew it was her. I kind of felt it..
I opened the door and it was her,
Speak of the devil and sh– actually speak of the angel and she appears,..
What is this? Why am I being soft around her.. I’m I starting to like her already??.

BEAUTY CALLS Episode 6 by RUTHIE LEE

Selene almost rolled her eyes seeing me but she immediately faked a smile and said “good morning” lowly..
She dropped her small girly purse on the couch and went to do some house chores while I just sat down on the couch watching TV..
Few minutes later Selene came to me telling me breakfast was ready and she left.. I went to the dining room and met my grandma and Selene and having breakfast already, I sat down opposite Selene who sitting beside grandma and before I knew it I started eating,. Breakfast was quiet.. Mostly cause Selene kept taking big gulps of her tea and it was really bothering.. Me
“could you drink you tea slowly you’re making me uncomfortable” I said and she bowed her head apologetically and I rolled my eyes and turned to my food and then my grandma cleared her throat making Selene and I grab her attention..
“Luna dear how would you like to go to a formal” she said and I almost spit back my tea
“a formal?” Selene tilt her head in confusion
“it’s an occasional party wher–
“no I know what it means, but why do you want me to go to a formal” Selene asked and my grandma smile beamed,
She’s making a huge mistake, Selene is just going to say no and break her heart, I actually want to go with Selene but I’d rather go alone cause I just want to go there, do every stuff I want to do there quickly and come home, I don’t like being around people and going to parties are worst, especially the ones where you have to greet and shake hands with a lot of people..
“you’re not going to a formal alone, you’ll be going with Endy” my grandma said and Selene chuckled..
“no thanks, but I rather stay here” she said and my know it all grandma face frowned
“but why dear” she asked Selene and Selene sighed
“cause, one. I’ve never been to a formal before and two. Me and Endy.. no please, and can’t he go alone” Selene said calmly and my grandma shook her head negativelike
“no he can’t, it’s bad luck I could have gone with me but look at me I’m old and I don’t walk in heels” she said and I rolled my eyes..
“gran.. Can you please just stop you don’t have to force her if she doesn’t want to go then let her be and I don’t care if it’s bad luck you and dad are just being paranoid, you’re both the same” I said angrily and filled my cup with water..
“that’s why he’s my son, so Selene what do you say hmm,” my grandma said and Selene shook her head negatively..
“I’m sorry grandma I can’t,” she said and my grandma gasped and turned her face away
Good for her..
Selene glanced at me and we both made eye contact and I mouthed
“say NO!” to her and she sighed and turned to my grandma ..and said
“okay fine I’ll go” my grandma turned to her and smiled “oh wonderful and the formal’s tomorrow evening” my grandma said and Selene nods but she wasn’t smiling
“wait! Tomorrow? But I don’t have any dress or shoes” Selene yelled
“don’t worry I’ll get that covered” my grandma said
“get what covered?” Selene asked
“you just said you didn’t have any dress” my grandma replied
“oh my goodness did I say that out loud” Selene grinned embarrassingly and my grandma smiled and nod..
Grandma stood up and turned to both Selene and I and said “oh and also Endy your dad told me the formal’s dress code is white.. Just white” Selene nodded and so do I.. White’s my favorite colour it makes me think of many things.
Grandma left the dining room cause she was done with her food and so was I but I was just lazy to stand up from the chair.. Selene stood up and starts to pack all the dishes and cups into a big tray to wash I think..
I stood up immediately she grabbed my dishes and called her she looked at me and goodness her golden eyes are one of a kind
“if you don’t want to go to the formal with me you can just tell my grandma no, she’ll get over it she’s just overreacting she’s not like this” I said and dipped my hands in my pocket.. She smiled at me and I didn’t know if it was real or fake but she smiles anyways
“don’t worry I’ll go to the formal with you, not because I want to, but I will” she said and was about to walk out of the dining room when she suddenly turned and called my name..
“Endy have we like met—. Like i-i h-have.. . Well j-just never mind I’m sorry for that actually” she said and walked out,
What was she even about to say, well whatever she had to say maybe she’ll say it sometime again, I’m feelings sleepy right now, looks like the sleepless time I missed are finally coming back.. I walked out of the dining room and went to my room to see take a short nap..
°~°~°~SELENE`S POV~°~°~°
After doing the dishes and cleaning the dining room I sat down in the dining room quietly thinking about the formal, all of a sudden I’m invited to a formal I don’t want to attend and it’s with Endy.. Endy’s not so bad but he’s bossy callous and annoying, but I have to go to the formal with him I don’t want Mrs Ginger to hate me or something like that..
Mrs Ginger walked in the dining room smiling
“Luna dear, I just called one of my seamstress and she’ll get the prettiest dress in town” Mrs Ginger said and I smiled and said “thank you ma’am” .
“but Luna, why did you decline to go to the formal, is it because of Endy? Dont you like him?” she asked and my mushed my lips together.. Like is a strong word.. I just stared at her not giving her a reply, I seriously don’t like Endy
“no” I said plainly shaking my head negatively..
“oh dear, you may not, now, but Endy is a lot like you, when you get to know him soon you’ll understand what kind of person he is” Mrs Ginger said and I nod..
I don’t wish to know him or understand him I came here for a job not to understand or know Endy..
It was 3:00pm I was making lunch when I heard the doorbell ring, before I could get to the door Endy already answered the door and he slammed the door after talking to the person outside, he walked inside , holding a medium sized box, he handed it to me as he got to my side and I slowly took it from him..
“that is for you” he said and walked away, I took the box to the kitchen and decided to prepare lunch before opening the box, lunch was ready and I ate with Mrs Ginger and Endy and after that I cleared the plates I remembered the box and decided to open it and when I did I saw a tight white dress and a white four inches heel..
What the hell! Did Mrs Ginger buy this for me.. I gazed at the dress and found a price tag at the hem of the dress and was shocked to see the price of the dress the amount of this dress could pay triple of my college tuition fees.. Mrs Ginger walked in with a smile and said “that’s what you’re wearing” she said and I nod cause I know already
“thank you, thank you so much” I said staring at the amount of dress not actually caring about the dress but the amount , I can’t believe She’d spend this much For Me for just a dress..
“I should be the one thanking you, and I think you should go home early today” Mrs Ginger suddenly said and I tilt my head in confusion
“why?” I asked
“just trust me on this one and go home early cause that would Save your life, once it’s 4:30pm just make sure you’re on your way home don’t worry about making dinner” she replied and I nod.. Okay I don’t know what’s going on but I’ll take the chances and go home..
I placed the dress back in the box and while Mrs Ginger walked out of the kitchen, okay lately I appreciate that Mrs Ginger is being nice to me and Endy,.. Well Endy isn’t that clingy or annoying like he used to but he’s still Endy the annoying dude..
When it was four thirty I grabbed my purse and the box and left the blossoms mansion like Mrs Ginger told me I don’t know what’s going on but free time..
I got home early and made dinner for my mom and I before she gets back..
.
^•^•^•^ ENDY’S POV ^•^•^•^
I came downstairs and found grandma on the couch and couldn’t find Selene..
“where’s Selene” I asked
“she left” my grandma replied
“what why?” I asked
“she needs enough energy for the formal tomorrow and also you know your sister’s coming Back home and she can be very annoying” she replied
That’s right my sister’s coming home today she called me earlier and told me she’s coming that I’m the only one she can tell and then I told grandma, it’s a good thing she told Selene to leave cause whenever my sister’s back from a long journey she can be very hyperactive and take her stress on anybody and it might be Selene since she’s somewhat a stranger
Just as I eat about to sit down on the couch with grandma, the door bell went ringing and I sighed and walked to the door I knew who it was, i opened the door and found Wendy my older sister smiling at the door..
“Endy!!!” she yelled happily and engaged me in her tight nice to meet you again hug..
“hey wen” I said with a grin as she disengaged me from her hug.. She walked inside leaving her suitcase for me to carry and I did the honour..
“Granny!!” she yelled cheerfully and gave my grandma a cheerful but careful hug.. Grandma pat her back as she stood up and she couldn’t stop smiling.. And I didn’t notice but she died her hair purple and black cause it was blonde before,..
“so where’s Josie?” she asked looking around
“she’s not here” I said plainly
“well wherever she is she better be back quickly I have so much to tell her” Wendy said loudly
“she’s not worki–
“anyway I’m going to rest I’m so tired bring my stuff upstairs Endy” she interrupted me and started to walk up the stairs with her five inches heel.. She’s so bossy
I grabbed her suitcase and followed her to her room,
“home sweet home” she said as she got to her room and she laid on her bed.. I dropped her suitcase beside her bed and said
“anyways your suitcase is here and I’m going happy resting”
“wait! You’re going to the Kim’s formal right cause I don’t want to go the Kim(s) are so dumb, they’re rich but they don’t act like it and I can’t find myself being around those people” she disgustingly and I smirked
“don’t worry I’m going, dad’s already talked to me about it” I said and she breathed a sigh of relief..
“so.. Who are you going with?” she asked with a sly smile
Why does everyone keeps assuming I go to this formal with someone
“Selene” I replied and she gasped
“wait is she like your new girlfriend or something” she asked standing up
“no she’s not, she’s our new house keeper, Jose’s replacement grandma forced me to go with her” I said and Wendy tilts her head in confusion
“so you’re saying Josie doesn’t work here anymore?”
“yeah try to keep up” I said rudely and she rolled her eyes
“shut up” she said aggressively
“well whoever she is I know she’ll be cute but not as cute as Josie, you know I’ve always wanted you and Josie to be a thing” she said moving her hair back
“please don’t start with me Wendy” I said with a sigh
“hold your horses I was just kidding okay!..” she laughed
“well I’ll be downstairs, If you need anything call me” I said and ah nods and I walked out..
Wendy, she’s the scariest one in the family..
