Chapter 2 - LAS - A text from a stranger

It was past 10 minutes and I decided to call Jedda. After a few times of calling her, she answered.

"Did you change your mind?"

"If you're pranking me, it wasn't funny."

"Pranking you? What do you mean?. It was Dan's birthday Kat, why would I prank you? I told you the truth about the guys coming over."

She doesn't have any idea, either.

"It was nothing. Talk to you later!"

I don't want to disturb her on her boyfriend's day. What should I do? I suddenly found myself typing on my phone and press the send button.

"You too"

Oh no! I sended it? Sigh. Whatever. I know someone's just playing with me.

I tried to look out on the window. And saw the usual city with a people outside, talking and doing their usual stuffs. I check my phone. It's almost seven. I wear my shoes and decided to go.

KISH

I missed my mother so much. I never see her since I was ten years old. I guess she doesn't care about me at all.

"Klaus, did you get it already?."

"I'm not so sure but I got this." and showed me a phone number.

I hurriedly took it.

Half of me wanted to dial the number and tell her how much I miss her. And the other half wanted to dial her and tell her how much I hated her for leaving me.

My father is a businessman. We use to be a happy family before. But everything changes when my mom leave us. I wanted to ask her a lot of questions.

I took my phone and typed. As I was half mad and yet not sure what to say. I suddenly pressed the send button with a message of.

"I hope you're gone."

I didn't say this, right?

I just don't know what to say and what I feel. I don't know.

"What did you say?" Klaus asked curiously.

And he took my phone and read it.

"You got to be kidding me."

I lay in the sofa and close my eyes.

"I don't know what to say. My fingers just move on it's own."

My mom left me and dad when I was 10 years old. Dad told me that Mom didn't love us anymore. So, I let my manager Klaus find her for almost 3 years now. And he said she saw an exact person on the photo that I gave him. A photo of my mom. He said he saw her in a fish market. What did she do there?

"Mom" my tears then suddenly fall.

I decided to be an actor, because I thought my mother would come back knowing her son became a star. When I was 14, I became a trainee. And debuted 3 years after. And it's been 4 years since I became a star. Klaus Gold has been my manager since. I wanted to find my mom on my own, but because of my busy schedules and he doesn't want me to be caught by the paparazzi's. He insisted to find her. And I am so thankful for that.

"I'll just leave you for now. Call me when you need anything." he patted me on my shoulder and leave.

A few minutes later, I decided to take a nap when...

*Beep beep

A text message? Mom replied? My heart beat so fast that my hand shake. I took my phone and...

"You too." I sigh bitterly with a smile.

I was right all along. She doesn't want me anymore. Because of anger, I throw my phone with a full strength. And Klaus came running towards me with a worrying face and saw my broken phone.

"Buy me a new one." And I get out of my room and go straight to the rooftop.
