Chapter 28

"They're here in New Jersey"?! I asked shocked, louder than I intended to.

"Uh yeah." She said looking around at the people who were now staring at us.

"Sorry I just wasn't expecting it." I said quieting down.

Julissa motioned for me to get into the car, "It's okay don't apologize. Let me take you back to your hotel"? She asked.

I got into the car and held my head when I remember what awaited me back at the hotel.

Julissa looked at me, "What's wrong"?

"I fucked up. Like really bad"!I said thinking back onto today.

"Oh come on. You're so cautious how could you have fucked up so badly." Julissa smirked.

"Dave made me fly out here because I owed him a favor. And then he stole money and we got shot at. And then we kissed. And now I have to go back to a hotel room with him"! I said frantically.

Julissa stared at me shocked and confused at the same time, "Okay. Hold on. Why'd you owe Dave a favor"? She asked.

"Because he gave me the information to access your parents." I replied.

"Okay. And how and why did he steal money? And from who"? She asked.

"He lied about making a deal with your parents. And he stole it cause he's broke! I swear I didn't know." I replied.

Julissa laughed, "He stole money from my parents? Oh God."

"I know it's bad." I said holding my head.

"They're not gonna care, you guys are fine." She smirked.

"Really"? I asked. "But they shot at us."

"To scare you guys. They don't use real bullets. At most they'll use like pellets." Julissa said giggling.

I smiled. "Oh okay."

"So now the serious part." Julissa started, sitting up straight. "Why'd you kiss Dave? Aren't you like with Kirk"? She asked. "Not that I can judge." She added with a smirk.

"We're on a break cause he like cheated or whatever." I tried saying casually.

"Wait?! What"?! She asked shocked.

"Yeah." I said, biting my lip.

"Are you okay"? She asked sincerely.

And I sat there staring at her as my eyes teared up.

I shook my head, "No. Not really."

She squeezed my hands, "Talk to me Dalia."

"It sucks. And I hate that I have to act all tough and unbothered, but really I feel like falling apart. And I hate that I'm letting this hurt me as much as it is." I said as tears streamed down my face.

Julissa nodded, "Well sometimes it's better to accept it than to just pretend, you know."

"But if I accept it then it shows how stupid I was to trust that Kirk would never have hurt me. I should have known, but I fell for his bullshit." I said.

"Yeah. I call it boyshit. Because there's just some stupid stuff they do, that is just impossible to comprehend." She smiled.

"Exactly. And that stupid stuff makes you cry, right"? I asked.

"No. But I was raised differently. First off my parents told me to never cry. And secondly they said never let a man be the reason you cry." Julissa replied.

"And so you just don't"? I asked, feeling bad for her.

"Yeah. But that's just how it works for me. Like let me tell you what James did to me today." She said with a smirk.
