I slammed the door behind me and slid down to the floor, what had I done? I was so unbelievably stupid, Natalie treats me like that when I haven’t even done anything to her now that I publicly humiliated her….I’m dead. At least it’s Friday and I have the weekend before I face her at school. I don’t even want to think about what she’s going to do to me, and I won’t, I’ll just get paranoid.
Running a shaky hand through my hair I pull out my phone and text Kaylee, I need to tell her this.
Hey Kayls it’s me Callie howareyou?xx
Omg Callie! I’m so sorry for leaving you today at school, especially since Carter wasn’t there either! Did anything happen?xxx
Heh, you could say that…god I’m so dead on Monday </3xx
Callie you’re worrying me, what did you do?! :Oxx
It was Natalie, I don’t know why I just was so sick of her and I slapped her…on the bus in front of everyone xx
Oh god, please tell me you’re joking?xx
I wish I was, I just can’t believe I did it…but it did feel good :/xx
Right that’s it I don’t care if I’m sick you’ll have to deal with it, I’m coming round in a couple of hours kk? <3xx
Yeah sounds good, I just need to forget about this see you then xxx
Slipping my phone in my pocket I stand up and make my way through to the kitchen. Grabbing a can of coke out the fridge I hop up on the counter, and flick through the channels (Yes we have a tv in our kitchen and everything, I guess we’re pretty rich but I’m not really spoilt or anything.)
It’s weird, mum and dad should be home by now and where’s Billy? I could really do with him to cheer me up right now. He might be only seven but he’s the smartest little boy I know, and not to mention the cutest.
Well you know what they say "Speak of the devil sure to appear” and at that moment I heard the front door unlock.
“Callie? You in there?” My mum calls.
“Yeah in the kitchen,”
I walk through to the living room, plastering a fake smile onto my face, they don’t need to know about my crappy day, they’ve got enough stress as it is with their jobs. But as I walk through to the living room I know somethings wrong, Mum and Dad are sitting feet apart from each other on the couch and their faces are fixed frowns.
“Callie sit down there’s something we need to tell you,” Dad jumps in before Mum can say a word.
“What’s wrong? I can tell there’s something up!”
“There’s no easy way to say this…your Dad and I well we’re getting a divorce.” She sighs.
I open my mouth to speak but I can’t.Why? We’ve always been so happy, I mean sure they’ve got a lot of stress, but they’ve always loved each other so much. And Billy, that’s the worst of it! He’s only seven, how’s he going to react? I can’t believe they’d do this to us.
“Why?” It’s the only word I can choke out.
“Your Mum and I have been having difficulties for a while now, we didn’t want to let you and your brother know but it’s just too much now. We’re just not in love anymore.”
“So that makes it alright? That now I’ll have two families? That I’ll have to choose who to live with? And Billy?! What about him, did you think about him? He’s going to grow up in a broken home, and it’s all your fault. Just know that I will NEVER forgive you for this and I mean that.”
And with that I turn on my heel and storm out of the room. Running up the stairs I try in vain to hold back the tears that won’t stop flowing. Just when I thought this day couldn’t get any worse.
Grabbing my ipod I stick it in my docking station and put it on shuffle. Ironically Boulevard Of Broken Dreams by Green Day comes on, kinda describes how I feel right now, alone. I mean I know Kaylee’s coming over soon but still…I’ve felt empty since that night . As if some part of me died along with…well I don’t want to think about it now. That’s in the past but this divorce, Natalie that’s all right now in the present and I need to deal with that first.
Kaylee will be here in a couple of hours so I can get everything off my chest and just relax. Right now I wish I had no family and I don’t have anything more to say to them.
