fierce and forgiving:second chances

chapter 30

I was half asleep,half awake when a flowery fieldish fragrance attacked my nose causing me to smile,just the person I wanted to wake up to I thought

"How was your jog" I croacked out,my eyes still closed,my throat feeling dry and weak

"That was creepy, when were you ever the creepster" claire asked incredulously

"Since ever,you never just noticed" I said trying to sit up

"So when I heard you were back I was ecstatic and I prepared a good scolding for you leaving without saying good bye,then this happened" she said looking at me concerned while sitting on my bed

"Am sorry I left without saying goodbye" I said feeling guilty

"It was for the better though,I was contemplating on locking you up till your mum decides against taking you" she said lightning the mood and I laughed

     We did a lot of catching up,her cousins already went back,I was kinda relieved though,I wouldn't know what to say to Evans it felt like I cheated on him with Eddy even though we weren't dating, the rest of the days went in a haze,spent most times indoors practically wallowing in depression, not wanting to do anything thankfully I hadn't cut in the longest of time,that's a good thing,right.
     I was unpacking my stuffs and putting them in their rightful places since I hadn't done that since I arrived when a note fell out of my Karen Kingsbury book,I wasn't expecting that there
     When your reading this,am sure you would be awake from your shocked state,your the only friend I have since Wes and I don't plan on letting you go,so it would be real nice if you called me with this number,just to make sure your fine
*******
Love Alexia

   I felt bad I hadn't unpacked earlier,I rushed towards my reading table and dialled her number,it rang twice before she picked and I wasn't answered with the usual hello

"What the fuck do you think your doing,drop my note pad dad" Alexia yelled

"Why can't you be like Wes, why do you have to be secretive and wear dark clothes and scribble irrelevant things" the man responded then the next thing I heard was a door been slammed

   Alexia said some choice words as if realising she was on the phone,I wasn't sure what to do so I settled for what I felt right

"Hello" I said to the receiver

"Who the fuck is this and why are you calling me with an unknown number" she said with much annoyance

"Woow its been like what,two,four,five weeks since we talked and your back to who you were,u missed me that much?" I said calmly

"Who are you" she asked confused

"Bethany...camp Christ" I answered

"Am so sorry for the outburst" she said sounding more calm

"Rough day?" I asked

"You could say that,so how are you, are you okay?" She asked

"Yea am fine,am not the one yelling at my dad" I said teasing

"Yea,he just dropped it on me that I would be transferring to an all girls school to curb my 'rebelliousness',according to him slashing our neighbors tire is rebellious" she said like it was the most sane thing in the world

"Well it isn't normal to slash someone's tire,am not sure I wanna know what made you slash it" I told her

"Well spraying my pup because he manured your lawn isn't normal either" she retorted

"You have a dog,I didn't know you had the heart to take care of someone that isn't you" I said in mock shock

"Your words hurt me" she answered in mock hurt

I heard someone call her name from the other end.

"Shit just got real,I gotta go my attention is needed,I would send you the address to the school,write to me okay,bye beth and am glad your okay" she said before hanging up

  Well that was fun,I unpacked the rest and for the first time since I got back I stepped out of the house and I was heading to my happy place behind my house,it looked prettier and more alive than the last time I saw it,I was sitting in front of the lake,savouring my environment and the peace it brought with it,temporary but very much needed making me enter into a happy trance

     I was brought out of my trance much to soon with the snapping of a branch,I was kind of scared because no one knew this place except from Evans,it was too risky for anyone to approach,but Evans was back home right,well except
