|CHAPTER TWELVE - A NEW HIGH|

I headed back home after taking a walk through Bryant Park after school. It was the only thing I could do because I wasn't allowed to hang out with my friends outside of school. Walking was the only thing that was keeping me distracted. My nightmares had started up again because I didn't have any blunts and I wasn't able to contact my dealer. I can only sneak out of class so many times during the school day to smoke with Liyah. Last weekend was the worst. I couldn't use my MacBook to distract myself from the fact that I was exhausted and I can't even use any TV in the house.

I made it back to the penthouse and started looking for my dad. I went to his office to check if he was there and only saw his MacBook and a cup of whiskey filled halfway. I went to his room and didn't see him there. I came to the conclusion that he went to rehearsal, and I went to the kitchen. I saw a note next to the fridge and read it.

Went to rehearsals. Your Gigi
will pick you up at six and you
will spend the night with her.
Pack a bag.

I grabbed some water out of the fridge and went to my room to start packing. It didn't take long so I walked to my dad's office. I went to his desk and opened his MacBook. I put in the password which was my birthday but the screen said it was incorrect. I tried putting Blue's birthday and it still didn't work. Then I put in my mom's and Gigi's birthday and it ended up locking the screen for 3 hours. I closed it and tried to think of something else to do.

I looked around his desk and there wasn't anything else but I didn't see anything else but the whiskey. I looked at it for a while before grabbing the cup. I swirled the glass around then held it to my lips. I took a deep breath before taking a sip. I felt the whiskey burn as it went down my throat. I felt a tingle and it had a weird aftertaste. But overall, I liked it. I took a few sips before downing the whole glass. I decided I wanted more and went through my dad's liquor cabinet. I checked the back of the cabinet and saw some whiskey bottles that look like they haven't even been opened. I grabbed one and opened it. I poured a little bit into the glass and drank it. I did it a couple more times then checked the time. It was five-o-one.

I thought for a moment before grabbing another bottle of unopened whiskey and taking them to my room. I looked around for a hiding spot for the bottles. I walked inside my bathroom and looked under my sink. I put the bottles all the way in the back to make sure no one can see it. I checked the time on my alarm clock to see I had fifty more minutes till my Gigi came to pick me up. I went to my desk to do some homework to pass the time.

I decided to go off my writing schedule since I've been busy with school so I'll probably be posting every 2 weeks.
