We all are in a restaurant where Ted was close friends with the owner so they gave us a huge discount, Olivia explained to me the process of becoming a new person

Daisy touched my hair "We should start with your hair, I know a friend who helps in hair treatment and you need a new cut"

"I agree with my daughter let's give you a new cut" Olivia nodded her head at me, Ted was busy talking to his friend on the phone and he gave out a hearty laugh

While we talked I felt the guy waiter was looking at me too much and I head on gave him a stare back

What's up with him?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After we ate dinner we were about to leave to go in Ted's car when suddenly he had the sudden urge to go to the bathroom so while waiting for him at the parking lot the waiter guy who has been looking at me in the restaurant for a long time has finally approached me

Me and Daisy looked at each other, Olivia on the other hand gave me a smug smile "Oh I see, I think I have a call Daisy, I think it's your uncle" she puts an arm around Daisy as they both leave me alone with the waiter

The waiter looks around to be my age, he has a crewcut on his black hair and baby blue eyes. The guy gave me a small piece of paper and in it contains his number "You just happen to stand out from the crowd in the restaurant and I couldn't take my eyes off of you" he scratched the back of his neck

"Can I have your number?" He asked me while playing with the apron on his right hand

This was the first time someone has asked my number, I'm not lying that I'm not happy but after what happened back in Banff I don't think I need another problem. I smiled up at him "If you really want my number, find me first and we can become friends" the paper that he gave me I put it in my pants pocket

With only a small population I'm sure the guy can find me in no time, I'm not looking for someone to love right now because I'm just recovering little by little so I'll start finding myself a group of friends

I can't live here if my only friend is Daisy, she needs to have her life on her own

Just when the guy was about to tell me something when he was cut off suddenly by Ted who was finally finished and looked relieved after he stepped out of the bathroom, his eyes landed on the waiter

"Max, I haven't seen you in a while" Ted went up to his car to open the door

The waiter who was named Max stood up straight and smiled at him "I'm a bit busy with school, sorry I couldn't come to the ice cream shop"

Ted finally started the car "It's fine, just focus on your studies. Penelope hop in Daisy and Olivia are coming here" Ted unlocked the back door of the car for me to enter

Before I could enter the guy said "So your name was Penelope"

I nodded "It's Penelope Price" my hand went to wave goodbye to him before I sat in the car then closed the door. Daisy sat beside in the backseat while Olivia was beside Ted at the front

Daisy squealed and started to lightly punch me "I can't believe Max Geronimo went up to you!" she started to jump in her seat

"Max Geronimo?" I was confused

"One of the cutest guys in the seaside area" she started fangirling while Olivia and Ted were listening to the radio

I must have been surrounded by handsome guys for too long that I might have become immune to noticing other guys, Max was a cute guy though. While on the ride back we heard the man on the radio say "We have a request if you have seen a girl with long dark blonde hair and hazel eye, if her name happens to be Penelope please call this number #####"

We were all surprised it came from MICRO RADIO Station, it's the radio station that doesn't usually accept requests to broadcast in finding missing people. They're known to be quite harsh

Why the hell are they broadcasting me!?

Ted stopped the car at the side of the road immediately then turned his body to face us "What are we gonna do? This broadcast is going to make headlines"

"I'll be found soon" I said in a quiet voice

No, I can't go back

Who could even persuade the owner in that station to broadcast me? My family don't have those types of connections then it must be Cloud

"We can't give up yet Dad, people from the seaside don't usually care for missing people if it's not one of them" Daisy told her Dad and Olivia agreed

"She's right darling, we're going to give Penelope a major look change but not too major it would be obvious"

"Great idea Mom!" Daisy happily said then hugged me "You just came here we're not gonna let you be found by them easily since you suffered a lot there!" She told me

These 3 people are willing to risk it all just so they can follow my wishes of not returning home, their kindness is immeasurable that it touched me

"Thank you"

Ted and Olivia gave me a thumbs up "Welcome to the Junifer family, Penelope" Daisy hugged my arm

When we got home Daisy called up her friend who was a hairstylist, her call ended abruptly "She said she will be at the shop early in the morning to get your hair done, the earlier we change your look the better. People are gonna recognize you if your face is going to be posted on the news"

I can't believe it, I truly don't want to be found but Cloud was not having it

I was in Daisy's bedroom, both of us were on top of her bed in our pajamas. She looked up at me as she scrolled through the phone on her social media "Still if Cloud is going to this extent he is not going to stop by just the radio station and the news. The guy would literally hire investigators and people to search for you"

That makes it all the more worse, the attention of the entire world would go into finding me if he keeps that up

"And since his family is rich I don't think his money is gonna run out soon, he might even consider talking to every connection his father has" Daisy added

Daisy please stop talking, you're making my anxiety worse

She showed me a post on her social media "Looks like people are starting to talk, luckily people here are not that updated much but you have to be careful when you come to my school"

I looked closer at all the comments of a post by the Radio station

"Have you heard that MICRO RADIO Station has broadcast a missing person?"

"Yeah it seems they are looking for a missing girl named Penelope"

"Who is this girl? I think we can help"

The people sure do love to help

How nice of them

I'm doomed

I hit my back on the mattress "Daisy at this point they might find me, internet people are scary that they can find people"

I grabbed her duvet and covered myself like a burrito, this was not supposed to happen. Now the whole world would be curious to know who I am

Daisy yelled "HOLY FUCK!"

I sat up immediately "What!?"

She showed me her phone again and it was a post made by Nick on his social media in IG, since he is a famous author he can ask his fans. The problem is he has millions of them

The post says:

Please help find my best friend Penelope

Then he posted a picture of me that was supposed to be my graduation photo

The post already has 1 million likes and it kept going up even more

"This is the problem when you have rich and famous friends" she joked at me

With Cloud being the son of a billionaire and a famous model, and Nick is a well renowned famous author. I don't even want to know about what Nikki is gonna do since she has a major influence on many people who likes her blogs

Her fans are on par with her brother

These three are scary, it is almost as if they got the whole world at their fingertips

"What am I gonna do?"

Daisy puts on a thinking face while hugging her teddy bear, after a few minutes she snapped her fingers "I got it! Let's change your name!"
