PERCY WAS NOT HAVING A GOOD DAY, NO, SCRATCH THAT ----- A GOOD LIFE. percy knew his life was messed up quite a bit, but this proved it even more.
First of all, it was Mrs Dodds turning into some weird creature and attacking him. and then everyone forgetting Mrs Dodds ever existed, including Mr Brunner, grover and the new girl, bowie. secondly, it was those old ladies. they were knitting these massive socks and then bowie was freaking out and so was grover.
to put it simply, percy was really confused. what the hell was even going on at this point?
Grover was freaking him out way too much, he knew grover was always a bit anxious but. . . well, he was being worse than usual. the bowie girl hadn't let go of percy's hand, still holding it tightly and he's pretty sure he was losing circulation. but she seemed pretty upset still so he was cool with it.
when they finally got to the bus terminal, grover made a beeline for the bathroom. his bladder always acted up when he got upset. bowie followed after him, finally letting go of percy's hand. time for confessing: as soon as grover was in the bathroom and bowie was looking away, percy ditched them both
was it a mean thing to do? probably. would he do it again? probably.
now listen here, percy was not a mean person. besides, he supposed it was okay ditching grover since bowie was still there ----- unless she ditched grover too. but it wasn't really percy's fault he left. Well, he didn't think so anyway. they were both just starting to really freak him out. the sooner he got away, the better for the sake of his sanity.
besides, percy was really desperate to get home to see his mum. his mum was a really cool person, in his opinion. her name was Sally Jackson and she had the rottenest luck ever. her parents died when she was five. she was left with her uncle who got cancer and died. she had dropped out of school to take care of him, so she didn't have any kind of degree. then she met percy's dad, who abandoned her. ( he had this faint memory ----- this warm glow, the barest trace of a smile. the smell of seawater and the sound of waves lapping against sandy golden beaches ) and the most worst part of his mum's life was gave ugliano. or, as percy called him, Smelly Gabe. Smelly gabe was an asshole who didn't deserve Sally Jackson.
he smelt of moldy garlic pizza, wrapped in gym shorts. he treated percy's mum like absolute shit. . . and that wasn't even talking about how he treated percy ----- not that percy cared that much, his mum was more important that him anyway.
