The Beginning of Everything

Chapter 4

Isabel starts to laugh and asks "you're not mad that I'm crushing on your brother?" Cleo sighs then says "no I'm not mad. I don't think I could ever be mad at you at least. If he does something I'll hurt him. Okay?" Isabel smiles and says "okay." Clep stands up and says "are you hungry? Because I'm starving. " Isabel answers back quickly saying "yes." Cleo laughs and says "well, than let's go to the kitchen." Isabel gets up and follows Cleo to the kitchen where she meets her parents. Cleo said "hey mom, this is my new friend Isabel. She just transfered to the school today." Her mom answered back saying " sounds good Cleo. Now can you go get me a pop. " Cleo sighs and says "yeah of course." Cleo then goes to the fridge to get the pop and gives it to her mom. Then asks Isabel "what are you hungry for?" Isabel shrugged her shoulders and said "I don't know. Whatever you're in the mood for I'll eat it." Cleo smiles and say "okay whatever you say." Then grabs chips. Isabel looks at the clock and reads 5:35pm. Isabel screams "shit! I'm late!" Cleo freaks out and asks "what are you late for?!" Isabel runs to cleo's room as cleo is following her. As they are running Isabel says "I'm late to go home. My mom said to be home by 5." Cleo looks guilty and says "oh I'm sorry that I kept you occupied." Isabel stops and says "it's fine its not your fault. I just didn't keep track of the time." Then smiles. Cleo says "okay.." Isabel packs up her book bag and heads out the door. Isabel runs home and comes home to find out someone died in her family. Isabel stopped in her tracks and asked "who died?" Her mom answered back saying "I'm sorry bell but it was tour grandma." Isabel fell to the ground bawling. She'd repeat over and over "how? What happened? " but no one gave her an answer. Later that night Isabel couldn't fall asleep. She just kept going though her head all the memories she has with her grandma. Tears would fall off her cheek onto her blanket but she didn't care. She kept asking to herself "why did you leave me? Why now? What happened to where you had to leave me?" She curled up into a ball and just layed in bed till morning when her alarm went off.
