The prank call was a success!!!

Ok, there was me (Zureen), DB a.k.a Cutie, Tina a.k.a Sweetie, & Short Stuff. I had this MASSIVE crush on a boy named K. One Tuesday, after school, Cutie had the idea of making a prank call on him. We used Cutie's cellphone and called K. Soon, he picked up, "Hello!" he said. His voice was so dreamy!!! Cutie gave the phone to me and I said, "Hi!! Is this K?" Mind you, I didn't say K, I said his real name, but I won't type it down.

Anyway, then of course he said, "Yeah, it's me..who are you?" I looked at my friends! The speakerphone was on so they heard it. Then Short Stuff screeched, "You gotta guess if you wanna know!" After that, total silence. Then I said, "Hello? Earth to K, come in K?" Then he said, "Yeah, I'm here. I was just trying to recognised your voices. I think the screeching voice sounded familiar. Very familiar." We all forgot that Short Stuff always calls K. Even Short Stuff herself forgot about that.

While Cutie was keeping him busy, saying, "If you wanna know who I am, you gotta..." Short Stuff whispered to me and Sweetie, "I think I'll just go home." Then Sweetie and I waved goodbye to her and walked towards Cutie. The closer we get, the more I heard Cutie talking with K. Guess what they were talking about? Cutie was just getting him to tell us who he like!

Cutie was saying, "Erm..K? Can I, I mean, we, ask you a simple question?" I guess Cutie had already told him that there were the 4, or 3, of us. "All you gotta do is answer this truthfully." Wow! Cutie was totally being dramatic. If only you were here to hear her voice! Ok, anyway, then he said, "I guess I'll answer it, but it depends on the question." Whoa! This was the first time I heard him being careful! Usually he's totally careless.

"Ok, if you wanna know who we are, you gotta tell us who you like. But hang on! Not only you, but who your friends like!" A grunt. We giggled, silently. "Well, I don't like anyone, but I can tell you this, Zac likes a senior girl. You know, Fiona? In 2S1." OMIGOD!!! Finally, after 2 years, I knew who's someone's crush is!!! "Oh, but that's not enough! We wanna know who you like!" We knew he's annoyed by this time!

I took the phone from Cutie and motioned the girls to stay and don't follow me. I asked him, "You know what? We realised that you were always looking at someone in the class. Come on, K. Don't play around, just tell us who you like!" Silence. Then, we heard a blow or something that sounds like that, then..."HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU? I DON'T LIKE ANYONE!!" And with that, he ended the call.

"Whoa! I never knew he had such a bad temper." said Cutie. "Yeah, I know! Who knew such a handsome boy like him have such a bad temper!" I said, with a slightly annoyed look.

After about 5 minutes, Cutie sent a message to him. 'Fine, we'll tell you who we are, but first, you gotta guess who we are, and we wanna apologise because of your wasted time and wasted emotion. (If you know wat we mean.)' Soon, he replied and said, 'Ok, I guess there were Short Stuff and I think Sara was there too! The other two, I wasn't sure...' Cutie replied, 'Yeah, you got those right! Short Stuff and Sara was here! But the other two was Cutie and Sweetie! This is my phone! I'm Cutie!' Then he replied, 'I knew it! Ok, see you at school tomorrow!'

-------------------------***---------------------------

Tomorrow was a beautiful day! Coincidentally, our locker was next door to each others, so, coincidentally, when he was at his locker, I was too! Then he said, "Hey, wanna know who I like? But don't tell anyone!" I gave him a 'Who? Tell me!' look. He close his locker and said, "It's you who I love with all my heart!" Then just like that, he went back into the classroom. I was standing there, shocked, like a stupid girl!

Then, I quickly went into the classroom and stared at him. Suddenly, the teacher came in. BUMMER!!! I waited till school finished, asked the girls to wait for me at our secret, usual place, and asked him, "Did you really MEAN it?"

"Mean what?" Oh great? Now he's a dumb dummyhead! I didn't wanna tell him what I mean because his friend, F, was next to him. I gave him a 'Come on!' look and he said, "Yeah, of course! Look, I'll call you tonight. Don't worry, I have your number!" And that was the end of my beautiful experience. See ya!
