Will I ever have an happy ever after?

Chapter 37 ( One last epilogue to go )

Yep, I still loved Chris...Finally found my answer...

I stood in front of the magnificent mansion of the Baldwin's. I couldn't help gaping, this was like five times bigger than mine.

" So, are you going to come in or what? "

" Huh? Oh um thanks. "

The helper stood aside and let me in, and I smiled sheepishly at her. It wasn't my fault I thought she was French and spent around ten minutes trying to say Je suis ici pour trouver Bryan, est-il ici?

Hey, I suck at French. I can't even pronounce merci or Ça va? . That's how much I suck at French. I got a F on my French test when I was in elementary school and trust me, Miss Gabs sure wasn't happy when I couln't tell the difference between the noun of a spider and-

" Are you going to come in or what? If you don't come in, in just five seconds I will, trust me, I will slam the door in your face. " The helper said, annoyed.

" Sorry! I was just thinking about things..." I quickly stepped in before she slammed the door. Boy, did she have a good set of lungs when she needed it. " Like the time when I failed my French test and my teacher was so angry at me because I was the only one who failed and...okay I'll stop blabbering now. "

Looking at her bored face I take that as a cue for me to stop blabbering.

" What's your name? "

" I'm Alice. " I said, giving her a big smile. " Nice to meet you. "

" So your the girl whom Bryan talked about all day long eh? I'm Rebeca by the way. "

" I guess so? "

Please don't tell me he told her everything about me...Including my embarrassing acts.

" Don't worry, the things he talked about wasn't bad. " Rebeca said, reading my mind. " He's in his room, and I take it as though something happened between you two? Ever since he came home, he's been different. Bringing more girls and blah. And he hasn't been to school, not that his dad care."

"Yeah...it's a long story..."And I have been skipping school too...So...

" Well fix it soon. That boy is darn stubborn and god knows when he'll come out. I've taken care of him for ten years, and boy must I say , he is a piece of trouble. It's like the grenade. "

" I think you meant, the bomb. " I said. Though people don't use it anymore, since, like the nineties? I added to myself.

" No wonder it didn't sound right. "

" Haha...yeah...I'll just get going now..."

" Go up and take to the right and you'll see his room."

" Thanks. " I gave her a smile before walking up. She seems nice enough.

Following her instructions, I reached Bryan's room.

Turning the knob, I realized the door wasn't locked. Gathering up my courage, I opened the door and walked in.

" Hey. "

Bryan got up from his bed and stared at me, confusion in his eyes. " What are you doing here."

I winced at his harsh tone but didn't blame him. I mean, I've hurt him. I would hate him too if he hurt me.

" I just...I just came to explain things. " I said, fiddling around with my fingers.
