chapter 22

Half an hour later the house was quiet again. I was grateful that Leighanne had decided to stop in Atlanta, she wasn�t going to be home until the next day just before the gala. Or party. Or whatever feast I wasn�t attending to. Actually Brian would pick her up from the airport and they would go straight to Tabu. So she wouldn�t have a chance to snoop around in my life.

I picked the phone up and dialed the number.
-Hey, it�s me Anna, where are you?
-Hey girl! Where have you been, I�ve tried to reach you like million times, Peter said.
-I�m sorry, I haven�t been around.
-So? How are you?
-Not that good. I just needed to hear your voice.
-Oh. You�re so sweet. Ricky and I have been missing you a lot.
-How�s Ricky?
-Faking PMS.
-How�s he doing?
-Like every good lady, making me crazy!
-Send my love to him.
-I will. Are you ever going to join us?
-Soon I think. Where are you exactly now?
-We�re in Casper, Wyoming.
-That far? Why not San Francisco?
-We�ll get there, someday... Anna, has something happened?
-No, why do you ask?
-You�re not usual you.
-I�m just little tired.
-You have a lot to tell when we meet.
-What do you mean?
-Hello, there was one month when we didn�t hear anything from you.
-I hadn�t paid my phone bill.
-And now all you tell is that you�re somewhere in Florida, that�s all. You�re not selling drugs? Or you?
-No, nothing like that. Stop worrying about me. I�m gonna be fine. And I�ll be with you anyway in couple of weeks.
-You just say so. Then when we are old and gray you appear to our last gick in San Francisco.
-Peter! Anna laughed. -You always make me feel good.
-I hope so. Listen Anna, I have to go. Take care of yourself, will you? We are missing you so much.
-I will, I had a lump in her throat.
Then I hang up.

Peter was one of the dancers I had been touring with. It wasn�t easy job, but now I was really missing it. There I was surrounded by people who I felt equal with.

Not to say that there was something wrong with Boys or their friends. It was just... It�s easier to make your own rules when you live in a world like they did.

And AJ seemed to have a totally different rules! I didn�t know what to do. So I decided to wait for a while and see what he was going to do.
