My Happy Ending

Chapter 6

It was already morning. I got up and did my usual morning routine. Today I wore my dark blue jeans and a red tank top and put over it my white kimono cardigan. I grabbed my purse and books and walked out of my room. Before I headed down the stairs I stopped by Aaron’s room and opened the door. I was disappointed that he wasn’t in there but his stuff was still at home, so that was good thing. I walked into the kitchen and saw my dad on the phone. He looked at me and smiled. I ignored him and opened the fridge. I grabbed a carton of orange juice. I turned around and grabbed an apple from the fruit basket. I was walking towards the back door that leads to the car garage.

“Aubrey, come here for a minute” my dad says

“Yes?” I ask

“Aubrey did Aaron call you last night?” he asked worried

“No he didn’t, and I don’t think he will call anytime soon, thanks to you” I say

“Aubrey please” my father starts, but I cut him off.

“Save it dad, I don’t want to hear it.” I say walking outside.

I jumped into my car and drove off to school. School was boring. I told my friends about what had happened last night. Everyone was shocked about what my dad had done. It was last period and I was bored as hell. I grabbed my phone from my pocket and hid it under the table so the teacher didn’t see me.

‘Where are you?’ I text Aaron.

‘Aaron please reply to me. I am worried.’ I text

‘Aaron please come home. Dad didn’t mean what he said.’

Aaron still didn’t text me back. I said goodbye to my friends and waited for Luke. We got into my car and drove off to take Luke to practice.

“Still no answer?” Luke asks holding my hand tighter

“No, I am so worried about him” I say

“Don’t worry I am sure, they are fine. Just angry and hurt.” Luke says

“I hope he’s back home.” I say pulling up to the gate of the football felid. 

“Call you later?” Luke asks grabbing his bag.

“Yeah” I say

“B, please stop worrying, Aaron is old enough to know what to do. I am sure he is fine” Luke says

“Yeah I know” I say smiling at Luke

“Love you, bye” Luke says holding the door

“Love you too” I say. I rushed home with my heart pounding in my chest.
