Sunday, January 11
After ten days with my encounter with Ivy, I'm still unsure what to do... Would I risk my identity for someone I just became friends with again or every person for themselves and just hand Alex in to Miss "Celebrity" Preston?
Oh, and by the way, the day after January 1st, Uncle H told me how it went when he told Emilia. Guess what? He didn't even ask her... He said that the fireworks ruined everything and he was being a nervous wreck... So disappointing, I know.
Pretty much I've been avoiding everyone for the past days, but today, I have enough! I have to see someone...
Russell, maybe? I'll text him...Message to: Russell <3
Me:
Sorry you haven't heard from me for awhile, I didn't wanted to make you worried, I promise. It's just... I have a problem right now and it's stressing me out! I'm just wondering if we can meet up somewhere... Somewhere quiet...I wanted impatiently for his answer and as always, he answered in an instant.
Russell <3:
Are you okay? What's wrong?Me:
I would rather say it in person, then in text...Russell <3:
Sure, where you want us to meet?Me:
Um... Is it okay if it's your house?Russell <3:
Bad idea, it's noisy here.Me:
I never met your family...Russell <3:
I don't want you to, they're... They're going to hurt you. Like they do to me...Me:
Russell, don't tell me you're...Russell <3:
I don't want to talk about it by text.
So, where do we meet?Me:
Come here... At my house... What you say?Russell <3:
Sure, I'll be there in a few :)Me:
Thank you...Russell <3:
It's okay, it's my responsibility to check on you anyway. It's my job.Me:
Awwww... Well, yeah, see you in a few :)I closed my phone and I just lay on my bed until he comes over.
~Few Minutes Later~
There was a knock on my door and I got up to open it.
Russell: "Hey... Your parents let me in."
I held both his hands and kissed him on his cheek to greet him.
Heather: "Come in. Sorry, it seems a bit messy..."
Russell: "It's okay, I don't mind."
We both installed on my bed, and I wrapped my arms on my legs, burying my face on my knees.
Russell: "Ariel, what's wrong?"
Heather: "Russell-- Before we get to that, what do you mean when you said that your family will hurt me?"
Russell: "Ariel-"
Heather: "Answer me!"
He sighed deeply, looking on his feet.
