I'm Not Of This World

Chapter 15: Unexpected Visitors

MIKAYLA DAVIS

I went back home in my own world. Not wanting to talk.

I know I acted strong back there, but immediately I left reality hit me.

So I just kept quiet the whole ride, and that's what I enjoy when I'm upset to listen to my Heavenly Father.

I entered my room and laid my back down my body facing the ceiling, thinking.

I don't know why I'm so down like this. It's as if I feel betrayed. It's not like we did a promise to each other. So why am I thinking about it right now.

You like him stop being ignorant, micky

Ain't helping consy

It's the truth

You know I don't do those kinds of stuff

I know but don't you think you like him?

Consy, stop it

I'm trying to make you understand

By making me accept stuff you know aren't true

She's so stubborn

Stop overthinking

One day, you'll agree to what I'm telling you

Whatever you say

I immediately stand up and take my Bible to read. I think this will give me the peace I'm looking for.

I open my Bible and start reading

I woke up and looked around me, and I realized that I had fallen asleep.

I hear the sounds of chattering downstairs.

I sit up straight on the bed, and Arnold enters without knocking.

He did it again, ugh

At least you got my back consy

I look at him with that look that says you-did-it-again.

"Wassup baby girl, did I do something wrong?" He asks with that signature smirk of his that annoys me completely

I roll my eyes. "You know very well what you did, so stop playing dumb okay"

"Okay, miss moody mood," he grinned

"You do like annoying me, don't you?" I squint my eyes while looking at him

"I don't like it, I enjoy it," he said as he emphasized the word "enjoy."

"Whatever, now tell me why you came up here,"

"Oh about that--" he pauses and smirks, looking at me

"Tell me you're getting me very impatient,"

"You have--" Just then, mom was saying something from downstairs

"ARNOLD WHY IS SHE TAKING LONG?"

"SHE'S GETTING PREPARED, SHE'LL BE THERE IN 5"

"OKAY!"

"Hurry, you have to come downstairs  ASAP," Arnold winked

"Yeah okay fine" I said while dragging him out of my room

"Why are you dragging me?"

"Because I have to get changed."

"Okay, but -" I didn't let him finish by shutting the door right on his face
