Support (An Oscar Piastri story)

Part 5

Oscars POV

I drove home, my head stuck in thoughts. Why was i so stupid? Why did she say i bullied her? I drove back home and stumbled into my mums office. 

"Can we chat mum? I've had a tough day?" she spun on her chair, clearly the sight of me worried her she got up and grabbed my arm. She guided me to the kitchen, and opened.. the liquor cabinet? "Don't tell your father op" that was her nickname for me, i simply nodded in agreeance as she poured two glasses of rum and coke, adding four cubes of ice in each. 

"What did you do buddy?" She knew me that well... damn. I sat on the barstool opposite her.

 "Well to start with i know you don't like her but my girlfriend broke up with me, well i broke up with her, so that kinda hurts, but then i got paired with this girl in art, i haven't talked to her since primary school and we had a fight so now we've been ordered by the teacher to hangout in the afternoons, and she invited me to a library, but then she blew me off and then i got a friend req-" she cut me off abruptly before i could finish. 

She raised her hand, took a sip from her glass and began talking. "Firstly, fucking good on you for breaking up with that bitch. Secondly, why would you have a fight with a girl you haven't spoken too since primary school and finally, why did she blow you off." She took a deep breath in and then another sip of her drink. 

"I don't know she was being rude, then she pushed me off me chair and so-" she burst out laughing, covering her mouth trying to stop but beads of laughter rolled down her cheeks.

 "I'm sorry i shouldnt laugh, but she actually pushed you off your chair?" i sighed at her unseriousness.

 "Yes, yes she did mum, can i continue?" she nodded wiping away the tears.

 "so then the teacher yelled at her, the after class the teacher told us that we had to spend at least an hour after school until our exam, so we agreed after some bickering to meet up at the library, she had to work so it was perfect. I go to my next class, media and i never knew she was in the class but there she was sitting right in front of me. I looked down and saw her shoes they were really cool, so to attempt to make peace, i tried passing her a note saying i liked her shoes,  but Mr smith the asshole saw it. He grabbed the note and read it allowed he then said and i quote, "Jeez you two get a room" so i stormed out embarrassed and when i got back she was gone. I went to the teacher after class to ask where she went, he basically told me she went to see a therapist." I stopped took a large drink and continued. 

"So i arrived at the library and i waited like half an hour; no sign of her so i asked a chic that's in grade nine, she said maya never came in for work. So i drove around for a while, i then got a notification she added me on insta, so i added her back and flipped out. I ended up calming down and we arranged to meet up at the milk bar near school cause i know she's coeliac, so we met up she was working on this cool art piece and i asked if she was going to a therapist and that's why she blew me off. She exploded, she screamed at me saying that yeah she did because she tried to kill herself and is now on her six lot of medication. Basically i feel really bad and i don't know what to do." I sighed drinking my final lot of drink. 

She grabbed her car keys. "Maya Smith right?" i nodded and followed her to her freshly cleaned Audi. She drove to a house, a large white house with a massive porch and a white gravel driveway. She parked out the front and looked at me. 

"She's in there, you wanna make it up to her i suggest you do it now before its too late." I looked down at y phone and then at her.

 "I think i should come back tomorrow before training, maybe with a gift or something, but its 6:00 so i think its too late" she just sighed and drove home. 

The car ride was silent and when we arrived back at the house, i walked inside and went to my room, giving my dad a pathetic wave as i passed him in the hallway. I laid down on my bed, shoes still on and scrolled through Instagram. 

I was scrolling when i got the ide to look at maya's profile, figure out what she liked, so i could get some kind of gift idea. I found some art things and so i had an idea of what to get but not really, i opened TikTok and searched up gift ideas, the one thing that amazed me was gift baskets, i could find a cool basket and fill it with art shit. 

I kick off my shoes and head into the bathroom for a shower, as the water drips down my face i feel all my problems melt away. I step out of the shower and dry my hair, i walk into my room and change into boxers and a singlet. I go out to get a drink of water and say goodnight to my parents and sister, mum had just picked her up from grandmas. I walked out and grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge, i slowly walked into the nursery and said goodnight to mum and Isabella, i walked to dads study and said goodnight. 

 I hopped in my bed and drifted off to sleep with my airpods blasting my playlist. The next morning i got up at 5:30 and went on a jog, i got back at 7:00 and mum was making breakfast with dad, i said good morning, had a shower and got dressed. 

I walked out and mum was holding Isabella and dad was cooking eggs, i sat down on a stool next to my mum and dad slid over a glass of orange juice. "How did you sleep OP?" my mum said as i picked up Isabella from her arms. 

"Yeah alright, how about you guys?" i drank the juice and got up. The both answered normally and i headed to my room. I grabbed my wallet and keys and a jacket, it was a bit chilly. "I have to get stuff so I'll get breakfast in town." they nodded and i kissed Isabella's cheek before leaving. 

I got in my car and headed to Spotlight. When i arrived i grabbed a really cool fabric basket with flower embroidery and wondered to the craft aisle, i grabbed canvas, cool paint brushes and some present stuffing, i paid for the supplies and headed back to my car, i still needed a few things so i headed to target. 

I grabbed a basket and filled it with lollies, cool hair clips and some Lego, i paid for it and compiled the basket in my car. I forgot her address so i texted my mum and she sent me it. I drove to her house and parked out the front.
