It was Saturday which meant Mum didn't have to go to work and I got a lie in. We usually slept in til about 12 but for some reason I was up at 9. I realised I hadn't checked my phone since before school yesterday so I checked it.
7 Missed Calls from Jay
Jay: Hey ari How did The meeting go?
Jay: Ari text me back quick! I need to know!!!!
Jay: Ariana was everything okay? Did something happen and that's why you haven't replied??
Jay: ARIANA WRIGHT YOU BETTER REPLY KNOW OR CALL ME BACK BECAUSE IF YOU DONT I WILL NEVER SPEAK TO YOU EVER AGAIN
The next few texts consisted of a few rude words...
'No sign of Ruby' I thought and sighed.
I decided to text Jay
Me: Hey everything's fine! Can you meet me later?
Jay: THANK GOD IVE BEEN SO WORRIED!
Me: Haha so can you meet me?
Jay: Sure meet in the park?
Me: at around 3?
Jay: it's a date ;)
Me: Daaamm don't tell Ruby
Jay: oh yeah about that.. I gotta talk to you about her
Me: can you tell me later when we meet up?
Jay: yeah I gotta go though. Need to eat my breakfast
Me: okay see you later xx
Jay's family were real early birds.
Mum seemed happy in the morning. She didn't seem stressed or anything like usual.
"Mum is it okay if I meet Jay at the park at about 3ish? He's having problems with Ruby.." This wasn't really a lie since it was true
"Sure honey but listen don't get too involved between them two because you might end up losing them both."
"Yeah I know he just needs someone to talk to."
"So I think Ruby's drifting away from both of us really." Jay said
"Yeah I agree maybe you should talk to her about it."
" I will. Now tell me EVERYTHIG!" He insisted.
I told him everything in detail.
"Wow so love is in the air for Momma and Mr Teacher Man." Jay said
He made me laugh. "Shut up Jay!"
Jay stopped "Wait..remember that boy you met at the park..what was his name?"
"Harry." I told him, confused."
"Well didn't we think that Harry was Mr Sperling's son? What if he is?"
"Oh my god.."
"Or maybe he remarried? And Harry was a result of this."
"No because Harry's the same age as us.."
"Yeah but-"
"Jay I don't think he is his son it's probably just a coincidence."
When I got home I found a note from Mum;
Gone to get some shopping in be home soon x
-Mum
Just then I heard some banging from next door.
"Mr Gonzales must be trying to DIY again." I thought.
The sound make a framed baby photo of me to fall on the floor. It fell out of its frame. I noticed the photo was folded. I unfolded it to find a photo of me...another young boy with dark blonde hair, green eyes like mine...and another boy! He had brown hair like I had in the photo and green eyes like mine! 'Harry..' I thought when I looked at the blonde boy. But I wondered who the other boy is. Then I noticed some writing on the back.
Ariana, Harry and Toby on their first birthday.
WHO THE HECK IS TOBY?!
I quickly took a picture of the photo and of the back too and sent it to Jay.
I heard mums car pulling in so I quickly put the photo back.
I decided not to tell her.
