[Later, at night]
I'm sitting in bed, watching some tv when I hear my phone buzz. I look down and see a text from Noa. I smile to myself before I open the message, "Can I take you up on that offer to drive your car?" It reads
"Absolutely, want me to pick you up?" I text back
After a few seconds, "Yeah, I'll wait outside for you" She texts back
"Great I'll be there in a few" I text back
I quickly get changed from my sweats to a black tee with red flannel and black jeans. I fix my hair and spray some perfume before putting my silver chain on. I grab my keys and walk downstairs, "Where are you going?" My mom asks
"Just going to hang with a friend" I say
She raises her eyebrow, "A friend?" She asks
"Yes mom, just a friend" I say
"Do I know this 'friend'?" She asks wiggling her eyebrows
I nod my head, "Who is she?" She asks
"Mom..." I whine
She smiles, "Go have fun" She says
"Thanks" I say before walking out and driving to Noa's apartment complex
When I get there, I see Noa is standing outside. I get out of the car, "Hey" I say
"Hi" She says
I open the driver's side door for her, "Your chariot awaits" I say
She smiles before sitting in the drivers seat. She's a little shorter than me so she adjusts the seat so she's comfortable. She runs her hands over the steering wheel, her face lighting up.
She looks at me, "Now you're sure you're okay with me driving your car?" She asks
I look at her and smile, "I'm sure, I trust you" I say
She smiles before she puts the car in drive. She presses on the gas and I see her face light up in giddiness as she starts driving down the road. She's doing great, I have no fear with her driving the car. I trust her with my life. We drive in a comfortable silence, just enjoying each other's company.
"This is amazing" She says after a little bit
She pulls into a parking lot and places the car in park. She looks at me, "Thank you for letting me do this. I was having a rough night" She says
I look at her, "Do you wanna talk about it?" I ask
She nods her head, "Shawn and I...we had an argument" She says
I nod my head, urging her to continue, "He knows something that we have a different opinion on" She says
She looks at me, "Gi if I tell you, you have to promise not to say anything to anyone" She says
"I promise" I grab her hand, "You can trust me"
She takes a deep breath, "The night I got arrested...I was covering for my mom. They were her drugs, not mine" She says
I look at her and see tears forming, "I didn't have a choice and Shawn, he...he doesn't understand" She says
I use my thumb to wipe her tears, "Hey, it's okay. I understand" I whisper
She looks at me, "You do?" She asks
I nod my head, "You were put in an impossible situation. You did what you thought was right" I say
She smiles, "Thanks Gi, that means a lot" She says
[Tuesday]
Right now, the girls and I are at Imogen's house, sitting on the ground in the living room in front of an Ouija board. I'm not a total believer in the whole supernatural world but I can see Imogen needs this.
"Um, I guess I'll start. We're, um...gathered her to make contact with the spirit of Davie Lee Adams, my mom" Imogen says
We all place two fingers on the mover, "Mom...it's me...Imogen. I guess what I really want to know is...are you okay? Or...at peace?" Imogen asks
Then it starts to moves over Yes. We gasp, "Who's moving it?" Faran asks
"I'm not doing it" Mouse says
"Not me" I say
"Uh, don't look at me" Noa says
"Everyone, take your hands off" Imogen says
We all do rather quickly, "Mom...what happened to you? Did you...did you die...alone? Or is there someone else with you? Did it have something to do with Angela Waters? Please. I need to know. There has to be an explanation" Imogen says
We all look at each other as Imogen starts to cry, "Why would you leave me? If you really dd kill yourself out of guilt, then you had to have known that I'd be the one to find you in the tub and deal with all this bullshit. Alone" She says
We all look at each other then back at Imogen, I feel so sorry for her, "Seriously? You have nothing to say? After everything that you have put me through, you abandoned me. I have no one...and nothing. Say...something. Please. It is the least that you could do" Imogen says
"Imogen..." Tabby starts
"Let her work it out" I say softly
"You know what, Mom? Fuck you! I hate you!" She yells
"And you know what, I'm glad that this place is selling because I don't wanna think about you anymore" She says
Then she looks at us, "Can we please get the fuck out of here? Please?" Imogen asks
"Yes. But you're wrong...about having no one" Tabby says
"Yeah...you have us" Mouse says
"We're here for you, Imogen" Noa says
"For sure we are" Faran says
"Always" I say
"To quote Chucky...Friends till the end" Tabby says
We all pull each other into a group hug.
[Thursday]
We are sitting at the lunch table, everyone except Noa. I'm worried but try to act calm, "I found my mom's diaries. All of them" Imogen says
"What do they say?" Mouse asks
"It's what they don't say" Imogen says
She slides one over and Mouse starts flipping through, "This is her's from senior year. The entries slow down to a trickle, then stop but before that..." Imogen says
"Some of the pages are torn out" Mouse says
"Exactly. Why would a girl rip out pages from her own diary? I mean, the whole point is that it's private, right?" Imogen asks
"Unless there was something so bad she wanted to rip it out of existence, even for herself" Tabby says
"And what, you think she destroyed the pages?" Faran asks
"Or they're hidden? Maybe somewhere in my house" Imogen says
Then Noa walks in, "Jesus, what happened to you?" Faran asks
I stand up and walk over to her, placing my hand softly on her arm, "Are you okay?" I ask
I lead her over to sit down as I sit down next to her, "Did you get your ankle monitor off?" Mouse asks
She nods her head, "I did this morning" She says
She sighs, "Guys...A's back" She says
We all look at each other, "And he came after me in person to my building" Noa says
I feel my blood boiling but I try to remain calm, "Are you okay? Did he hurt you?" I ask worried
She nods her head, "I'm okay, Gi" She says
"Why you?" Tabby asks
"According to the text he sent, because of something my mom did to Angela Waters"
"You're sure you're okay?" I ask Noa worried
She places her hand on mine, "I'm okay, Gi. I promise" She says reassuring me
What on Earth is going to happen next?
