"...She wants to take you back."Anthony says. Why could she possibly want that?
"You're joking, right?" I laugh nervously.
"I wish I was Lia. I really do. But mom has told me, and has gone to the adoption centre to make arrangements to take you back there." He informs.
"Why?"
"She found out the rumors about you having multiple boyfriend, and believed them. She also got a phonecall from the headteacher yesterday about how bad your grades have been."
"Oh. Maybe I should of told her about that..."
The front door opens, and Mrs Padilla stands there.
"Anthony. Please would you go upstairs so me and Lia can talk." She asks.
"No. You aren't going to take her, and I won't let you!" He shouts and runs upstairs. Mrs Padilla rolls her eyes at Anthony and turns to me.
"Lia, why are your grades going down?" She asks. To be honest, it's Ian. He has a girlfriend, and I am kind of jealous. He hasn't been talking to me as much as he was before, and if I do get the chance to speak to him, it's about his new girlfriend.
"Urm..." I trail off, trying to think of a perfect excuse. "I needed to eat in lessons, which then made think about food and not the Periodic Table." I say, confidently. She knows I'm lying, and that means I am one step closer to getting sent back to the hell hole of the adoption centre. This isn't going well.
After alot of yelling and shouting, I ran out of the house. I'm heading to the park, as that is where I usually go. Along the way, I bump into Ian, who, by judging the direction he is walking in, has just came back from his girlfriends' house.
"Hey Lia." He says, cheerfully.
"Hi." I reply.
"What's up with you?"
"Oh, nothing much. Just Mrs Padilla might be sending me back to the adoption centre."
"Why?"
"No reason."
"Not trying to change the subject or anything, but why aren't you replying to any of my texts?"
"You know why! I told you! I'm banned from my phone."
"I guess I forgot..." You have been forgetting alot about me recently, Ian.
"Hey Ian?" I ask.
"Yeah?" He replies.
"Anthony said he wanted to speak to you about a project today."
"I'm actually pretty busy today. Maybe some other time?"
"I'll tell him that. Oh and he also wanted to know what happenes to last Saturday?"
"I forgot, okay?" So you forgot about your best friend, seems like you, Ian. "And also, when is our History essay in for?"
"Why don't you ask your wonderful girlfriend that?" I mutter to myself. Unfortunatly, Ian heard me.
"Lia, is something wrong? You have been acting strange lately."
"It's just you spend so much time with your girlfriend, I'm worried that you will forget about me and Anthony." I say honestly. Ian stops walking.
"I'm sorry Lia that I have a life." He snaps. "See, unlike you, I do things with my life."
"So you are calling me lazy?" I gasp, shocked at what he said.
"No, I'm just saying that you haven't done much."
"You've changed, Ian. You aren't normally like this. Normally, you are more fun and enjoyable to be around. This isn't you."
"I'm sorry, okay? I'm sorry for not being fun, or not being enjoyable. But really, you shouldn't be blaming me for everything. I don't want to speak to you anymore, Lia." He slowly walks away.
"So you are just going to leave me?" I say.
"Yes I am. And no, I don't care. I don't want you to be a part of my life anymore. Bye!" He yells and walks off.
"Fine! I never liked you anyway!" I shout back at him with tears beginning to form. I run back home. I don't care if I'm going back to the crappy adoption centre. I don't care if Mrs Padilla is going to kill me. All I want to do is not care.
I open the door to find Anthony and Mrs Padilla arguing. They stop as soon as they see me.
"I'll be packing, seeing as you want me gone." I say, wiping away tears and walking upstairs.
I hear someone follow me into my room.
"Lia, are you okay?" Anthony asks, sitting down with me on my bed.
"No. No I'm not." I say, trying to hold back from crying. Everything bad is happening all at once.
A/N
Yeah... I don't know what happened to that chapter. I got carried away.
Question: What do you think Anthony's reaction would be if Lia told him what happened between her and Ian?
