Can We Be Fixed?

Chapter 5 - Daniels POV!!

I was driving home from school with Caleb, I was confused because Talia didn't join us, she was begging me to let her drive with us the morning?

But I guess she is too scared to now because my mates locked her in the storeroom

I didn't join them because for some reason I hate hurting her, I can watch people hurt her, yes I feel like shit but I can stop myself from interfering.

Talia reminds me too much of someone, its better she stays away from me, I would rather me hurt her then her hurt me, just looking at her hurts my heart, she looks to much like her......

Its not like she was in storeroom for a long time though, I asked Damien to unlock the door after recess, he told me it was empty because no one replied so she left 

she is probably pissed at me, I don't blame her though

So you can imagine my surprise when I come home with Caleb and Talia is still not home after 3:20, me and Caleb were busy chatting with our friends, but I will admit 

I made sure to wait a while for her, hoping she would come but she didn't...

4:30:

I am starting to get really worried, Talia never takes this long to get home from school, the last time she did my dad went psycho, I will be honest I don't like the way he treats her 

But It's not like he hits her or anything the last time he did was weeks ago, and he told me he would stop, when I told him he can't hit her anymore

I don't really like her but I can't watch her being hit, she makes me think of someone I used to know, she was like a sister to me...

5: 20:

I am panicking Talia has been away from home for way too long something happened to her, I keep asking Gabriella but she keeps telling me to leave Talia be, because Simon will sort her out and she wants peace from Talia right now

I can't believe this woman...

I keep trying to call Talia before realizing I don't have her number, she has mine but I don't have hers

I am freaking out, Caleb is even freaking out even though he says he hates her secretly I know he is worried he keeps checking his phone and running his hand through his hair a sign of him being stressed

5:53:

I was pacing my room, while Caleb was on a call with Damien and our friends asking them to look out for Talia because they were helping search for her outside

I tried to go with them but Gabriella stopped me saying I was not allowed to leave the house, she thinks that I am wasting my time looking for her,

She then told me she got a call from Talia a couple of minutes ago

"What did she say Gabriella" that bitch of a mother wasn't telling me anything

"Ugh nothing son, she just told me she can't come home"

I freeze and stop pacing "What did you just say"

"She called me and said she was stuck in the rain or something, about a swollen ankle or something but she was crying so hard I could barely hear her, you should hear her cry she is such an ugly crier, then she insulted me you know what she said, she told me I should cook for myself and- "

I cut her off, "Did you just say she called you and you didn't bother telling me, and you haven't even gone to help her yet, also don't call me your son Gabriella you are not my mother, neither are you Caleb's, I have told you that hundreds of times, Don't. Call. Me . Your. Son.
