Call It a
Coincidence
part twenty four--> Talia
As I
headed down the stairs another guy stopped me.
"who are you?" He said
"Um. I'm Talia... Cory's friend. Who are you?"
I asked
"I don't feel I have to answer that, If this is my
house." He said softly.
His dad? I stared at him
"I'm Charlie. Cory's older brother. Why are you
here?"
"Well- uh. Co- Cory, he invited me over last night and- we
fell asleep, I'm going home now." I tried to go past
Charlie, but he turned every way I did.
"You spent the night eh? You and Cory?" He raised his
eyebrows up and down.
"No. It's not like that-" I started
"Then what IS it like?" I stood there looking at
Charlie- Not knowing how to answer
"I know about the mall this summer. And the beach a few days
ago, and I'm pretty sure I know what happened last night. So,
tell me what You think it is, then I'll tell you what I think
is going on." Charlie crossed his arms.
"Um... I- We- It-" I stuttered
"Um I- We-" He mimicked me
I glared at him "I don't. Like Cory-"
"You 'feel bad for him'? He played that
card?"
"What... card?" I asked
"The oh- I have a bad life, cry cry." He sat
down
"Yeah?" I turned and looked at Cory's door.
"Don't act so shocked sweet heart. I'm his older
bro. I know all his tricks. See ya around." And he waved me
goodbye. I grabbed the door handle "Oh, one more thing-
Don't feel special. This isn't anything different than
the other girl's he's brought home. Best bet? Just stay
away, You don't really think you mean something to him do
you? He doesn't get close to anyone. But it's your
call" He smiled and waved again.
I stared at Charlie a minute then ran out the door.
----->Cory
"Hey" I woke up and saw Talia.
"Hi" She said quietly.
She stood up quickly and said she had to go. What ever. I rolled
back over and fell back asleep.
I wasn't asleep for long when I heard Charlie talking to
someone, when I got downstairs I saw Talia running to her
car.
"WHAT DID YOU DO?" I screamed at him.
"Told her the truth lil' bro." He said
innocently
"CHARLIE! What did YOU SAY!" I yelled
"Welll" He smirked "I told her she shouldn't
feel special- that this isn't unusual for... you" he
laughed
"Charlie. I actually liked her! I can't believe
you!" I got up in his face.
"No you didn't! It's never that way
Cory!"
"Not this time. I hate you." I punched his stomach and
ran outside. Remembering I had no car I ran to our shed- grabbed
my skate board and rode off.
