Ive been on the streets for almost 2 hours and its starting to get dark..i dont know where i should go,i think im gonna call my grandparents to see if they will let me stay over at them for at least 2 days..till i can get my money and move to my own apartment. The phone is ringing.
Erik: Hey,i know its been years since we last talked but i need a favor from you please,i need a place to stay at least 2 days till i get payed and ill leave you guys alone forever,please just this once i cant stay on the streets.
Grandma: Whos this? how did you get my number?
Erik: its your grandson,Eri- She hangs up the phone. I feel tears running down my face again,i hate Ethan,i wish his life will be HELL till he dies..
Couple of hours pass by and its already 12:32..i cant stay here much longer ill have to go back to Ethans place,so funny he didnt even look for me not even one call or message..I block his number,then i get an idea..what if i text Leo,will he let me stay at his place for 2 days? I dont even think he even wants to see me anymore..Lets try my luck. I dial his number on my phone and with shakey hands i press on "call".
Leo: Whos this?
oh my god he already deleted my phone number..i feel my heart skipping a beat.
Erik: Its me..Erik,please don't hang up the phone,i need you to help me really bad,please Leo,i beg of you i cant sleep on the streets. I plead with burning tears stinging my face.
Leo: i cant help you,leave me alone. He hangs up the phone leaving me crying loudly on a bench in an empty park. I guess i just have to go with this for now..its just two days what could go wrong,right? I lay down on the bench,crying and whining..i close my eyes and fall asleep. Suddenly, a strong grip gets me up from my back straight up,i panic not knowing whats going on and i open my eyes in a second..
Leo: Get in the car. He says looking down at me,his eyes darkened more and more after each word making me feel scared but..i like it?
Erik: whats going on..stop just leave me alone, i turn away laying down again.
Leo: this is the last time im telling you to get into the car, Erik. He waits there,looking at me,i say nothing and just close my eyes hoping he will just leave me alone since he hates me now. He grabs me forcefully,picking me up..like i weight nothing to him,i feel my heart galloping so fast i think im going to pass out oh my god hes holding me..i turn red like a tomato and i look away from him,saying nothing. He places me into the back of the car,onto the car seats and grabs my bags,puttin them in the back of the car.
Leo: are you okay? what happened?
Erik: he sent the messages..not me i..i.. I start crying and covering my face so he wont see me do that.
Leo: whos he? calm down Erik,we'll talk when we get home. He speeds up and pulls up into the garage of a white big house. Is that his house? oh my god how could an 18 year old guy can even own such house? is he rich or something..maybe he is. Leo opens the car for me and i get out, i get dizzy and lean on the car a bit while he takes my bags from the car. His car is a McLaren 12C,a grey one,its so pretty. We eneter his house,everything looks so luxurious wow.
Erik: this house is really nice and your car is very..luxurious as well. I say while looking down.
Leo: take your shoes off and go wait for me in the kitchen. Go down this hallway and its the 3rd door on the left. He takes my bags and puts them in a room as i go in the kitchen..its a very modern,big kitchen. I sit down at a table. Leo eneters the room and sits down in front of me.
Leo: go on. tell me whos this "he" you cried about. His gaze is piercing through my heart and i feel like my throat has wire around it making me not able to say a word. Just calm down,nothing going to happen,talk with me,Erik.
Erik: ..my roommate, Ethan,ever since i brought you up hes been acting so weird..he got mad the first time i told him ab you and this evening i told him to text you i was in a rush because i actually was! and he took my phone without me realizing only after i was ab to leave to work..he even deleted the messages so i wont get suspicious ab it but i still did and so i packed up and left..i dont wanna see him anymore.
Leo: thats a lot to talk ab,how old is this guy? He says while taking his phone out and starting to look on it.
Is he uninteresting in whats going on?..Does he think i sent those messages?..why is he so unbothered by this.
Erik: hes 19..
Leo: 19? aren't you like 16,what are you doing with an adult,where are your parents?
Erik: they died and ive been alone since,he offered to let me live w him last year when he was in my high school..whatever,what im trying to say is that i never sent those messages im really sorry i even let him take my phone,please, youre genuinely the only person who sees me and treats me like a human being,youre the only friend i have at the moment,Leo.
Leo pauses and stares at him for some seconds while Erik visibly panics.
Leo: friends? we arent friends. you don't even know me. He says putting his phone on the white table.
Erik: no?..then how about i get to know you?
Leo: Look,kid,theres no way im gonna let you get to know me,im just going to let you sleepover here till you can leave,dont disturb my peace while youre here. Goodnight.
He gets up from the table and leaves the room,everything went silent..he doesnt wanna be my friend? why is he so mean to me now?..Ethan really ruined everything for me i can't believe this,hes so stubborn.. I get up and leave the room,searching through the house i find the room with my bags in it,a really big and beautiful room..I change into my pjs and get into bed,its so nice here..im sad i have to leave soon.
