~Jules and Lucas~

~The Tutor: Chapter 1 Part 5~

My mom saw the whole thing. She sits besides me and rubs my back. I can tell she's confused and concerned.

Mom: "it's ok baby... there there..."

I continue crying, I don't know when I'm going to stop. I am so out of breathe. I am so tired. I turn around to hug my mom.

Mom: "Oh baby, it's ok, it's ok, I got you, ok... I'm here, mommy's here..."

I cry for a couple more minutes in my mom's arms. She tries to talk to me as I get up and go to the bathroom. I tell her I'm fine and shut the bathroom door. I want to take a bath, a really hot one. I cry even more in the tub. I don't understand why I wasn't good enough for him. Did I do something wrong? Did I not do enough? I guess I will never know... I don't think I want to see him ever again. I stay in the bath for a few minutes and then got out to brush my teeth. I get out of the bathroom and my mom is waiting at the door. She looks happy to see me come out. She hugs me and I hug her back. I let go of her to get dress in my room. I stay in my room for the remainder of the day.

~The Following Day~

I didn't get any sleep, I just stared at my phone the whole night. I feel so exhausted, can I really go to school today? I don't want to but I have to. Today is the final practice test, I can't miss it, even if I am sick. I get up and get ready for school. My dad has to take me to school because my mom works today. I get to school, almost late. Which is what I wanted so I wouldn't have to see him.

Today we don't have class together which will be easier for me. I hope I don't see him at all, I hope he doesn't come talk to me if he sees me. I get to class, take my test and finish early. I don't talk to anyone and I eat lunch alone. It's beginning to feel like what happened the last 3 months was all a dream. As my dad takes me home, I think about all that happened between me and him. The first time we met, the first time he came to my house, the first time we played games together, the first time we saw our treehouse. Was I selfish to want more even when he gave me so much? As we pass me and Lucas' treehouse, I see nothing, just the tree. I turn to my dad...

Me: "Wait dad, can you stop here."

My dad stops on the side of the road. I get out and run towards my treehouse. I- It's- It's gone... but why... where did it go...? I was just here two days ago.

I try my hardest to hold back my tears. Why does this have to be destroyed too. I guess it's only for the best to erase all memories of him.

We finally reach our house. I get out of the car and headed to my room. But something caught my eye... I walk to the living room."

Me: "Dad, where is my game console...?"

Dad: "Oh, I don't ever see you use it so I, well I sold it to the game collectors this morning. The console and all of the games."

Me: "you- you what...?"

Dad: "I'm sorry son, we needed the extra cash, bills this month was high and so I sold it... I can buy you a new one if you want me to..."

Me: "...no, it's ok, I don't need it anymore..."

I head to my room, overwhelmed with sadness. I lock the door and lean against it, and slide down. Another heart break, it really seems like a theme these days. Our world together, gone. Our house, gone. Our dogs, Coco and Bear... gone, just like that. First our treehouse, now our world... why does it seem like the universe wants to strip my memories of you. I want to cry but my tears have run dry. My eyes are red and puffy. I am tired, so tired. I get up and lay on my bed. I slowly drift off.

~The Next Day~

I wake up, feeling colder than usual. My head hurts and my eyes hurts. My mom comes into my room to tell me she's going to take me to the hospital. Just to check up on me and give me medicine. I get ready with her and we leave. The hospital was busy but we were done quickly. We leave the hospital.
