Chapter 6 - Chances & Midnight Calls

"Sweetie? Are you awake?" I heard my mom ask from behind the door

I shifted my body, so that I'm laying on right side and that my back is facing the door.

I heard the door creak open and then close.

I stared out the window while I felt the other side of my bed dip.

"Carrie, you gotta talk to me about this" My mom said softly

I sighed and turned my body to face her.

"I already did mom.. Last night" I said and sighed

"I already gave your dad a chance to come back to us. There's no turning back now Carrie" My mom said

I furrowed my brows while I stared at her.

"So you're really going to give him another chance? Give him the ability to re-enter our lives?" I asked

My mom nodded. "Yes Carrie, I'm allowing him to come back and re-enter our lives"

I sat up and stared at her. "Are you going to get back together with him?" I asked

My mom shook her head. "No. I won't risk the chance of me getting hurt again. He's only going to stay here for a year"

"What about his other family? I know he got a divorce, but doesn't he have a child to take care of?"

My mom sighed and nodded. "Yes. But Katherine took him with her"

"And what's going to happen after a year?" I asked

My mom shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know. We'll see when the time comes" She replied

"W-when is he coming?" I stuttered

"Tuesday" She replied

I nodded and sighed.

"Are you okay with him coming back Carrie?" She asked and stared at me with worry

"I guess. Even after what he's done to us in the past, he does deserve another chance.. I just hope he doesn't mess it up" I replied honestly

My mom smiled at me slightly and placed her hand on my knee.

"Thank you sweetie" She said with a smile

"You're welcome mom" I said and smiled back

Phone convo - Carrie & Taylor -

"What is so important that you had to call me at 11 pm?" I asked into the phone in a scratchy voice as I groaned

"Tomorrow's Monday" Taylor said excitedly

I groaned even louder. "Shut the fuck up and stop reminding me. You know how much I hate Mondays" I said a bit angry

"Damn chica, I know you're angry, but the new boy I've been talking about is coming to school tomorrow! Do you know how hot he is?!" Taylor said with a squeal at the end

I sighed. "For the last time Taylor.. I. Don't. Give. A. Damn" I said slowly, to make sure she heard me and understood every word I was saying

"Oh trust me girl, you will give a damn once you see him" She said, and I could already feel the smirk that's on her lips.

"Mhm, whatever. Bye" I said

"Wait Car-" Before Taylor could finish what she was saying, I hung up and threw my phone somewhere at the side of my bed

I sighed and shifted around to get into a comfortable position before falling back asleep.
