Broken

Chapter Thirteen

Andre had left a few minutes ago and I loved his company. We sat and watched Grey's Anatomy and we talked absolutely nothing. Now, I was looking at my phone contemplating on calling 'Home'. I didn't want to talk to my mother but she was the one who was going to get me the necessary things. Leotards, four knee high boots and leather cloth to make costumes for me and my friends. I dialed the number and someone answered on the first ring.

"Hello honey, how are you?" My mother asked.

"If you wanted to know you would have come home." I shot at her.

"Daniella I wanted to come home but something important to attend to here." She tried to explain.

"So aren't I important mom?" I yelled my question. I could hear her sigh.

"I didn't mean it like that Della. The new line of elegant wear is coming out and your father is building a new office New York and things are just harder than usual." It's like I could see the strain expression on her face.

"I didn't call to argue okay. I need leotards, leather cloth that are enough for four girls, red, white and black and four knee high boots same." I told her.

"Leotards?" she asked with evidence of concern in her voice.

"Yes for gymnastics." I said plainly.

"You have taken up gymnastics again. That's so great when do you compete?" her voice was cheerful.

"In a few weeks." She squealed and I pulled the phone away from my ear.

"We will be there I promise that." She was happy I was competing as always.

"Yea I have to go I have school tomorrow. So good night mom." I sighed in the phone it's not definite they will be there I will not build up my hope.

"Sleep well honey I love you." Her voice was pained but I just hung up I couldn't bring myself to say anything else I was the cause off all her pain.

I ran my fingers over the cold surface of the piano. I pressed a key and the note played I haven't played in a while. I sat on the bench and begun to play a random song. The music brought me to a different time where my family and I were laughing at stupid jokes and having a good time. What I would do to have my happiness back.

To continue playing just made me want to break down and cry. Pushed away from it and ran up the stairs and fell on my bed face first. My life was out of control everywhere I turned. After Danina my life has spiraled out of control.

I looked at the clock it was minutes after six, time to get up but in truth all I wanted was to lay here. I looked at my laptop at the poster I had created last night for the party. I looked good to me just to show the girls and see if they liked it. I shoved the laptop in my bag and the necessary books for today.

Today I felt like wearing orange, I got ready in my orange outfit and then made my way to the kitchen for a healthy breakfast of cereal. I checked my phone and a few text from Andre and Daniel were there. I opened Daniel's texts first and he was saying something about coming to Seattle very soon. He even sent a picture of himself and Tiffany. How sweet almost sickening. I smiled at the picture he has found happiness. I missed my twin, I longed to see him.

Andre's texts were simple asking me how I am and if he could get a date. He was one determine guy after I have rejected him so many times he still comes back for a date. I have to be honest I admire his determination. I sent him a 'No" as the doorbell rung, I finished the last of the cereal and placed the plate in the dish washer and grabbed my bag it must be Maria. It wasn't just Maria at my door but Andre as well with a smirk on his face.
