Carly slumped around the house in her favourite cotton pyjamas. She had finished her homework and had attempted to distract herself by reading a book, but she couldn’t focus on the words. 

Keenan was running around the house in his animal jumpsuit, so her mom and her friends were oohing aahing at the little ears that popped out of the hood. Carly sighed. She would have to speak to her mom later when she was less distracted. 

She went back to her room just as her cellphone started ringing. It was Riana.

“Are you watching TV?” Riana squealed through the speaker.

“No, should I be?”

“Put it on ETV. Do it now!”

Carly slid her phone closed and ran to the lounge. It took her a moment to select the right channel.

When the picture came into focus, she gasped.

Taylor Fisher was doing a live interview with a well known local television journalist.

“Taylor, is there any truth to the rumours that you’re extending your stay in Cape Town because of a girl?”

Taylor flashed his Hollywood smile. “Yes and no. I’ve taken on a commercials role so I’ll be here for while. Hopefully in that time I can convince the girl of my dreams to actually take my call.”

Carly paled. She felt like she was about to faint.

WHAT DO YOU THINK: Should Carly get in touch with Taylor or should she continue giving him the cold shoulder?
