Chapter 5 - Ginger

"Hey! there is something I want to talk to you guys about." Lila said as she placed her tray of food down on the table. It was lunch time . Peter, Penelope ,Aria and Dina looked up at her. " I think my boyfriend is cheating on me "she continued. Her friends looked at her concerned.

"What happened?" Dina asked ."you know how Aria and I went to his house last weekend because and found that he actually had thrown a party there? " " yea, you guys told that you had to check something" "well yea ,I heard some girls talk about some party at his place and he hadn't mentioned anything anything about it to me. later that day I found him talking to this one particular girl, they looked awfully close ,before I could ask him anything about the party he suddenly disappeared. later when I confronted him about it, he dismissed it saying he hadn't planned to throw it , he just happened to throw it yada yada yada, it didn't seem convincing enough but I ignored it none-the-less "

"okay, but now, what makes you think that he is cheating on you" asked Penelope . Lila paused for a minute , fidgeted with the fork and answered "I checked his phone" she looked down. "I didn't mean to snoop on him but last night we hung out, he accidentally left his phone beside me , he kept getting texts and I accidently happened to see one ,it said 'bro check your other phone....'I clicked on it to check the full text 'bro check your other phone your girl wants to talk to you but apparently the call isn't going through , she called me all concerned , I couldn't tell her that you were with this other chick . so just call her' that is when i realized that he has another phone and an another girlfriend" she said almost tearing up. Her friends listened to her sympathetically.

"Did you check whom it was from? who the friend was?" asked Peter. "yea , his friend Lukas , I have met him a couple of times , he seemed so nice , now i can't believe they were all in this together" answered now tearing up.

"we need to talk to Lukas" said Peter. "talk to him about what?, he is not going to tell us anything" intervened Dina. "no he is. he is going to tell us everything "said Aria. "Why would he? don't tell me you are going beat him up or something" Dina asked alarmed , Aria made dramatic 'I'm offended' gesture" so Dina when you think of me, the first picture that comes to your mind is of a barbaric hooligan or something ? no i meant that dude Lukas obviously wanted Lila to know , he purposely sent those texts hoping she might see one. " "exactly! "intervened Peter , patting Lila on the back trying to comfort her. "let's go find him and talk to him, okay?" . Lila slowly nodded.

"Hi!! wassup! you wanted to talk to me ?" Lukas asked getting down from his bike , walking towards the gang that was sitting under the huge tree in the parking lot.

"I'm sure you know why we called you. "Peter answered getting up . "well yea, i did send those texts hoping Lila might actually see them , i may be double crossing my friend but i wanted her to know but i can't explain anything to you guys ,its not my place but here you go" Lukas said walking towards the gang and handing out a piece of paper." it's the contact number of the other girl , hit her up and talk to her "saying this Lukas turned around and left.

"what just happened? " Asked Penelope breaking the silence "that dude was so weird , he just came ,snitched on his friend, handed out the girl's contact information and left, i mean everything kind of felt rehearsed, but whatever let's just try calling this number"

"no wait !! "Dina turned towards Lila "you sure you wanna do this ? you sure you don't want to directly talk to him about it? " she asked.

"yea , i don't trust him anymore , i want to talk to her"

"alright then call her up".
