The Scientific Jerk

Chapter Twenty - Nine

"You're lying!" I snapped.

But Captain's mother stared at me with a fake smile. She had wrinkles but she still seemed young.

She switched her eyes to Brad. "Brad honey, do you remember her?"

Brad seemed angry. He turned away from me and said, "I don't".

I felt a lump in my throat grow more painful. I could really be mad at him. I stomped my foot like a little girl.

I felt little. I felt so small I could feel myself shrink.

I looked at the lady, "this isn't over!" I said and walked out.

I don't know if depression is like a person walking around with you, and whispering things in your ear, but that begin to happen to me.

It's because of the stupid things you do Allison.

And for the first time, the voice in my head didn't feel like an older person like a sister telling me what's good or bad for me. The voice didn't gave me any advice or warnings. It was a voice of me, telling myself that I was a mistake.

I had a bad headache. And I didn't even noticed I wore dark clothes now.

If my head band aid was still on, Captain would've been curious. He could probably relate.

Then my eyes grew big. "Oh my god," I said to myself. "Nobody told him."

Nobody had told Captain that I was part of what why he lost his memories.

And even though I hated talking to his mother, she didn't tell him about the accident.

Just after I left Captain's house, I drove to a bar.

When I was fifteen, I went to an insane party. In the basement was a camera and and two guys on a computer.

They were charging people to make fake ID cards. I was stood in front of the camera and took my photo.

"What do you want your name to be?" Said one of the guys.

"Hey hey shh, I'll give her a name," said the other guy. He looked at me from head to toe. "Angelina!" He said.

I rolled my eyes as he typed in the name. Then a little machine printed out a card.

"How much?" I asked.

"Free for a cutie," said the guy.

I snatched the card from him and left. ~

I still had the fake ID. I couldn't take what had happened today. I went inside the bar and ordered a shot.

When I was still in the hospital, the doctor asked me if I did drugs or alcohol. I told him no, which was true since I hadn't taken any, especially since I joined Science Club.

Last semester, I told myself that I'll stop with the drinking, and fix my grades.

And then my F+ led me to Science Club. And I never drank ever since. Until now, I mean.

I put my head down as I waited for the shot.

"Allison?" Someone said.

I picked up my head and turned around. I widened my eyes from who was standing there. "Josh?"
