"Why didn't you stop them huh?"
"I tried Margret, I tried"
"I don't consider crying as trying to stop a fucking murder!" She yelled at Me
"You know I didn't want you to die"
"But that wasn't enough"
"I had nothing to do! I was helpless! I couldn't help you because I couldn't even drag myself out of this mess!" I yelled, feeling my tears burn their way down my cheeks
"You could at least take revenge"
Revenge?
Revenge..
BEEP.BEEP.BEEP.
I woke up at the sound of my phone alarm, meaning it's 6 in the morning, wait, where am I?
I looked around me, not understanding anything.. Oh.
I remembered everything from last night.. I literally went nowhere
I'm now in my car, basically at the street.
I looked at my phone to find 5 missed calls from mom and 2 From Kina
I skipped mom's calls and called kina
"Hey" I said
"Hey, where are you? Your mom called me lastnight and she was so worried"
How did mom get her number? And why did she call her??
This is supposed to be private
"I'll explain later, I'm on my way to school"
"Okay"
I drove to school thinking about nothing but my dad's words.
I have a brother. One year older than me.
I can't believe this.
How can I find Him? I don't know, but I sure as hell will.
I parked the car and headed to my first class, not bothering to look at anyone or greet anyone. I just kept my mask face on and the rude attitude ready to be used any time.
I can't handle all the mess in my life alone anymore, I wish I could open up to someone. I wish I had enough courage to open up to someone.
I'm scared.. In fact, I'm frightened.
Daniel's calls means that he wants something from me.. And I'm afraid that I will do the same thing I always did.
I'm tired. And scared. This is the worst day of my life.. Probably not.
-you've been through much more.
Yeah, but at least I knew that I had someone to trust.. My parents.
Now I don't know anymore.
"Earth to Demi" I looked towards the voice to see Tom sitting beside me, smiling
I smiled back at him and tried to hide the hurricane that's inside me.
"What's up" I asked
"Yeah, I'm fine, I had so much fun at the weekend, thanks to your drama of course" he said and chuckled
I hid my head in my hands in embarrassment
"Oh god" I said and heard him laughing beside me.
I looked in front of me, where Ethan usually sits, but he wasn't there
"Where's Ethan?" I asked Tom
He just shrugged
Where is he?
"Okay class, today you're gonna have a pop quiz"
Oh shit.
-Okay, this is officially the worst day in your life
-Don't exaggerate
It's not exaggerating, seriously, if I failed this test, I'm so not going to a good college
Oh god.
I was so caught up in my thoughts that I didn't realize that Ethan had come and was sitting in front of Me
He turned around and looked at me.
"Oh shit, by that look on your face, I sure as hell know you didn't even read a book"
I shook my head
"Not one page" I said, with a terrified look on my face
"Don't worry, I'll help you"
"No, no, I don't cheat."
"Seriously? You're gonna fail you idiot!" He whispered yelled at me
"Okay okay, thank you" I smiled
"Anytime, hey, why are you wearing the same clothes as yesterday?"
"Long story, that's the reason why I -"
-Holy shit SHUT UP!
oh god. How was I so easily gonna tell him?
"-Um, never mind" I said hoping he would buy it.. But he didn't
"I'm gonna know after this class"
I know, because I will tell you.
-What?
Yes. Yes, I will tell him, I was wishing for someone I can open up to, I wasn't thinking about Ethan. He helped me so much and he's a good listener.
He might help me find my brother.
Besides, I really need to talk.
-No shit, this isn't happening, you can't just tell him everything
Why? I know I can trust him.
"No cheating, no chatting and no talking, good luck" The teacher said snapping me out of my thoughts
Oh god, help me.
***
I ran to him and hugged him so tightly I think he would suffocate if it lasted for more than two seconds
"Thank You,Thank you thank Yooou" I said making him laugh
"You're welcome dems" I smile and the mention of my name
"I need to talk to you" I said
"Um, okay" he seemed a little nervous
"About what?" He asked
"Have you forgotten about our deal already?"
"Ahh, I see" he smirked
"Well, after school?" I asked
"After school it is" he said and smiled at me
-you're insane
But I love it.
