Mia

~Chapter Five~

"Who was that?" Kelcy asked questions after questions. Why couldn't she just leave me alone, walking to the kitchen with her hot on my heels.
"So you're just going to ignore me?"she asked.
"Fine then be that way" with that she stormed out of the kitchen.

I was almost finish eating my sandwich when my brother walked in "where did you go?"he asked, oh my gosh why won't these people stop with the questions, am twenty-three I can go and come as I please. With a roll of my eyes I answered"went to the library", he just nodded.

"What's with the attitude",what the hell was he talking about. I eyed my brother who was currently sitting on a stool watching my every move.
"What issues do you have with my attitude".

He sighed."you didn't know,did you?"he asked. Didn't know what, was he trying to say something but then it hit me like a ton of bricks. Austin knew, he knew while I lived under the same roof as them and knew nothing.

The plate dropped from my hand shattering into pieces."why didn't you tell me?".
"How could I not know that they weren't telling you. I just assume..."

"Stop right there" I said cutting him off, "stop assuming cause you making an ass out of you and me."I yelled.

I was angry that no one gave me a heads up on the whole situation. Was this how Kelcy felt when Austin brought someone else home. I must be a crappy friend, she is the only one who has yet to fail me.

I was such a fool, I got up when Austin stopped me " where are you going?"he asked.

"To find Kelcy, to apologize" I told him.
"Oh,she left".

" how is that even possible, when she doesn't have her license ".

" she could of walk you know. But some guy by the name of James picked her up". I nodded great just great.

Let me tell you another thing about my best friend ;whenever she feels like she is not wanted, she will pick up her things and leave.

So right now Kelcy could be anywhere with James. I groaned me and my big mouth.

"Why didn't you tell me?" I said without facing him.

"It wasn't my place to tell" he said.

"It wasn't your place to tell;but you come here acting like you don't know shit and you knew,did Amanda know" he nodded.

So it was just me; the fool who didn't have a clue  what was going on" I yelled.
"You have every right to be mad" he shot back.
"Am going back to bed" was the last thing I said before storming out the kitchen.

                  [Two days Later]

I was busy packing shelf when I felt someone tapped me on the shoulder, I looked up and I saw the guy from the library. What his name again...aah Jake. What a nice name...

  He smiled when he recognized my face"Mia isn't it" I nodded like a damn fool, did I like this boy I mean he was cute and all but I wasn't looking for a relationship.
          Yes I was twenty three years old and I have never had a boyfriend or kiss a guy; please don't judge me. I just never met Mr Right, that's if he even exist.
I am a sucker for fairy tale and happy endings but I never found mind. Maybe Jake is my prince charming  my subconscious said.

"You work here" he said breaking me out my thoughts.
   " yes only in the day time, at night I go to the community college ".
He nodded and then flashed another million dollar smile, causing a funny feeling in the pit of my stomach. What  was this guy doing to me.

" I will see you around"he said as he left.

                         ***

   Walking up the driveway to my house was like walking on ice; ever since the day I found out about my parents divorce and my father's addiction their is this big black cloud looming over our heads.

   I some times wish Austin never  came, if it wasn't for him I would still would be talking to my parents maybe it was sort of sign. Opening the without making any noise was the hardest thing that I ever done.

  "Is that you Mia" my mother said walking into the living room where I plopped down on the sofa.  I was extremely exhausted.

  "How was work?"
"Exhausting"

"Mia am sorry........"

"Look mom I don't want to hear it, am moving out by next week" I told her.
   She was shocked, actually I lied  about moving out maybe saying that would get them of my backs and just maybe I could move out next week... Who knows...
