"Treating you the Way you Deserve" //Pedri Gonzalez

Chapter 7

Calling Dad🖤

Camila: "Dad, hello. Where are you?

Dad:I ordered you a car, and it will be there soon.

Camila:Why did you not pick me up?"

Dad: "Because I'm busy at the police station."

Camila: "Busy? Busy?! Dad, I had to arrange for a car to come pick me up because you couldn't even be bothered to come get me yourself. You know how much I hate being dependent on others for rides. This is so inconsiderate of you."

Dad: "I'm sorry, Camila. I know this is frustrating, but my work at the station is important. I'll make it up to you, I promise."

Camila: "Whatever, Dad. I guess I'll just have to figure this out on my own. As usual."

Dad: "Camila, please don't be like that. I really am sorry. Let me know if there's anything I can do to make this up to you."

Camila: "Right now, the best thing you can do is just let me go. I'll see you later."

(End call)

Ferran🤦‍♀️

Camila: "
Ugh, Ferran, you're not going to believe this. My dad made me come all the way over here for him to not even pick me up! He said he was 'busy at the police station'. Can you believe the audacity?"

Ferran :
"That jerk! I can't believe he did that to you. What a selfish, inconsiderate move on his part. I'm so sorry, Camila."

Camila:
"I know, right? I just thought this time would be different, you know? But nope, same old story. I'm just so over it."

Ferran:
"I'm really sorry you had to go through that, Camila. You deserve so much better. Is there anything I can do to help?

Camila:
"I appreciate the offer, Ferran, but I think I'm just going to have to figure this out on my own. I don't want to be a burden on you."

Ferran:
"You could never be a burden, Camila. You're like a little sister to me. Please, let me know if there's anything at all I can do to help. I'm here for you, always."

Camila:
"Thanks, Ferran. I'll keep that in mind. I just need some time to process this, you know?"

Ferran: "
Absolutely, take all the time you need. Just remember, I'm just a phone call away if you need anything at all. Hang in there, Cam."

Camila:
"I will. Thanks, Ferran. You're the best."

——
Camila, you're finally home! What took you so long to arrive?

Hi Francisca, I just thought my dad was picking me up.

Is he here yet? I ask.

No, he's still working, sorry, she says.

It's fine.

Camila, the girls are upstairs.

Okay, thanks, I said.

Me and Sofia have always shared a room, while Amelia and Mimi have had their own room. But since she's not here, I get my own room.

Hi Amelia, I say.

Hi Camila, I'm so happy you're here. Where's Sofia?

She's out in our town with her boyfriend.

Oh, so how long are you staying?

For one month, I say.

It's late, so we should go to sleep.

Okay, goodnight Camila.

Goodnight Amelia.
