Moving Too Fast

Chapter 11

Hope You Enjoy This Chapter ..

The whole time we was in my bedroom making jokes and having fun, I couldn’t stop thinking of how selfish my Dad was being and how rude Sandra was to my Mum and he never done anything to stick up for her. While I was just sitting there with everyone, Crystal and Jayden could see I wasn’t enjoying my birthday.

“What’s wrong Alisa, it’s your birthday and you’re sitting down moping when your party’s about to start soon, plus you haven’t opened your present yet” While Crystal was talking she was looking out the window at the people who was lined up outside the club where my party was going to be.

“Oh I’m sorry it’s just …………... c’mon then give me my presents and let me open them” I said stretching my hand towards Leah, they all looked at me like I was sick or something.

“Wait what’s wrong love, what’s on your mind, tells us?” Jayden said getting up and sitting next to me. I Hesitated at first then decided to speak

“Well you know that women who you saw with my Dad. He proposed to her yesterday and their getting married” when I finished talking I was waiting for them to say something but instead they all looked at me like I was mad.

“Don’t you see the problem?” I said.

“No, what would be the problem with your Dad getting married?” Crystal said looking confused.

“Can’t you see my Dad’s being selfish, he’s doing this to make my Mum jealous! Then he had the audacity to tell me to call his so called fiancée Stepmother.” When I finished talking, they all looked at me like I was silly not to be happy for my Dad.

“Why can’t you be happy for your Dad?”Crystal said shaking her head. I looked at her liked she had lost her mind.

 “Are you crazy, do you know what my Dad done, he cheated on my Mum with that thing and now he wants to get married to her. Do you know how many nights my Mum stayed up crying over him, she would sit on her bed asking god what she done wrong, why her and how is she going to manage with me and Alia.  Do you know how many times I wanted my Dad to come home and make my Mum stop crying and make my life much more better. He was with my Mum for over 20 years and not once, not once did he ask her to marry him and you want me to be happy for him (while I was talking I could feel the tears getting ready to pour down my face) you’ll be lucky if I even go to the stupid wedding.” When I finished talking Jayden came and hugged me.

“I’m so sorry, I had no idea you felt that way”. I looked him in his eyes and they showed a sorry look.

‘Knock Knock’

“can I come in?” Mum said knocking softly on my door. ”yeah sure Mum” while my Mum was by my door Jayden quickly moved away from me just in case Mum got the wrong idea. My Mum came in, smiled at everyone then turned back to me.

“Alisa your parties going to start soon, don’t you think you should start to get ready now?” I quickly wiped the corners of my eyes hiding the fact that I was crying then looked at Jayden who was staring at me. Jayden got up then said “okay we’re gonna’ go then will come check you in a little bit” he said backing out the room with Leo and Isaac behind him. My Mum left behind them leaving me, Crystal and Leah in the room by ourselves. 

“Alright girls let’s get ready for Alisa’s big party” While Crystal was talking I wasn’t really playing much attention, I was more interested looking out the window and seeing Dad and Sandra hugging and laughing together, I was starting to really hate Sandra and couldn’t stand to look at her.

“Alisa, are you listening to me girl?” Crystal said walking up to me.

“Huh….um yeah I’m listening. Now what dress should I wear first?” I said getting up heading towards my wardrobe. “Okay well I think you should wear that pink and white dress that we bought from the mall last Saturday, with the pink stilettos and your hair up with a side fringe and the end of your hair curly” While Crystal was talking she was taking nearly everything out of my Wardrobe and dumping it on my bed.

“Um yeah that actually sounds nice, so come on then let’s get started on Alisa so we can get ready to” Leah said fiddling in my hair.

 They both walked up to me and began doing my hair and flicking threw my clothes. By the time they were done I looked amazing, and was ready to party all night.
