❤❤IVY❤❤
After a whole lot of snacks , I can say that I am exhausted to the core. My battery is dead, my mouth feels so sticky due to the amount of sweets I've had taken and I am sure to have diabetes soon, my hair feels like a low grade bird nest and I am bored. I wish we had flown instead 'cause we could have gotten to Chicago earlier and we have been on the road for almost the whole day.
''Dad? how much longer till we get to the Chicago dream world ? I am so tired of staying the same way for so long''. I ask while trying to clear up the back seat of the empty wrappers. ''Not long sweetie we're almost there''. Dad looks as tired as me or maybe even more. Mum's phone is ringing and she hands it over to me. The caller ID states that Yvonne my bestfriend since diaper is on the line and knowing who she is I know what I'm in for. "Hey Ivy, its not that hard to pick up".
Kevin is Yvonne younger brother. He's cute and he's 15, although I'm 3 years older than him, he still has a crush on me since he was like 12 and he isn't afraid to express it. He's like 6'1, well built but not my type. Dating him is like dating my younger brother so its a big no-no.
"I'm so so sorry, but my battery died earlier today, I can't plug it on the road you know and tell Kevin that I love him and that you guys can come visit anytime."
The line is silent until Kevin's voice comes up." I knew you'll come around. I love you too vie. There's something you need to know, so check your Instagram page I sent it to your DM, understand that whatever happens I will always love you. BYE Vie don't forget my birthday". "I love you too Kev!!".
I switch to my account mums phone and go straight to my DM with Kevin. There was a link to a post by a girl named Scarlett. It was a video and I read the comments under it, which I may add where all negative while it loaded. It was Derek and another girl, getting sexual and stray tear leaked out and fell the screen. Then his call came in.
"hey babe." he sounded so cheerful and I tried to keep the tears back. "hi". "how are you, are you there yet?" he said. I waited a moment before I replied. "how was the party Derek, your damsel really was in distress." sarcasm evident in my words.
"The party was great and... wait how do you know about that?" I roll my eyes. "out of everything I said that's all you could pick. Derek, if you really wanted to cheat on me you should have at least made it private." the line is quiet for a while. " Ivy, please I'm so sorry, she looked so inviting in her dress and I was drunk and you weren't there so I had too at least do something.
" Derek, can you even hear yourself speaking right now, what kind of excuse is she was so inviting and I wasn't there. I haven't gotten to Chicago and you had already cheated. you're not even remorseful or sorry?!!!". I'm heaving in air like I had forgotten to breathe.
" that's not what I meant babe..." I rudely cut him off. " I don't give a damn about what you meant. I don't need you in my life anymore, I obviously deserve someone better that whatever you call yourself. if you still don't get the message, I'm breaking up with you Derek and We. Are. Over." and I hung up.
A moment of silence passed, and dad decided to speak. " I always knew there was something off about that guy, its good that he is finally out of you life. its for the best Ivy. Just know that me and your mom will always love you". " I know dad. I love you too."
Shifting back into a comfortable position, the tears still leak out, gently at first, they came out with full force. I know mum and dad may not show it but they are worried about me, and Ill be strong for them, even if it means giving up on finding true love.
