Everywhere I Go *Editing*

Chapter 5

This is a long update for you guys, since I haven't updated in almost a month. Winter break got to me, so I was lazy and didn't feel like writing a book. I was on writer's block for a bit, but I think I am good now :D and my goal for this chapter is at least 2k words. I do realize I am talking to like 3 people, but you 3 people are pretty cool. Well, thank you so much for reading, I hope you enjoy this chapter;)

*Ava's POV*

I threw a glass at the door. I am stuck inside of my thoughts. I know it isn't really that big that he is in a band, but I was still pretty shocked. I was about to get over it. I just had to go for a walk and this had to happen.

*FLASHBACK TO THE JOG*

"Maybe this jog will get things out of my mind," I thought to myself. I start jogging as soon as I reach the sidewalk. I already know this place pretty well, and I have started living with Jus--- Aron for only 2 months. I didn't really want to move, my dad sort of kicked me out. I had just found out that I had a sister, a twin, who was stillborn. My mom just couldn't tell me in time, because she died right before I she knew I would understand. 1st grade. 

I was in daycare while my dad was driving my mom to the hospital for her open heart surgery. The doctors had said that she had a 86% chance of living. I didn't know what that meant when I was 6, but I knew that my mom had a chance of death. I would throw so many tantrums everywhere, in stores, at playgrounds, at home, and even at movie theaters. 

Anything that will remind me of hearts would get to me. Hearts on shirts or leggings, heart special-effects on pictures and videos. One day when I got home from school, I got home to see my dad sitting on the couch, smiling.

"Daddy, why are you happy? Mommy is dying!" I said in my whiny voice.

"Not anymore, Ava!" He said to me enthusiastically. I looked up at him with tears in my eyes. No more tantrums, no more fear of losing mommy, no more anything! I ran to him and gave him the biggest hug ever!

"Haha, sweety, we just need to go pick mommy up from her doctor," he said while making his way to the door, holding it open for me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~DAD'S POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I felt really bad for lying to my daughter, but it's for her own good. She is on her way home from the bus.

BZZZZZZZ          BZZZZZZZ           BZZZZZZZ

Great. The hospital is calling me.

"Hello? Is Stacey okay?" I ask the doctor.

"Sorry sir, but she just had a stroke and will have to stay one more night." I hung up as soon as Ava walked through the door. I slap a smile onto my face before she sees my gloomy look.

"Daddy, why are you happy? Mommy is dying!" She said in her excellent whiny voice.

Not wanting her to know what happened to Stacey I said, "Not anymore, Ava!" Tears started rolling down her cheeks and she gave me the sweetest hug. I felt really bad, and I didn't know what she would do once she found out.

"Haha, sweety, we just need to go pick mommy up from her doctor!" I don't know what I just said. What the hell is wrong with me, I literally just lied to my own daughter. I walk to the door, thinking about what I can do. Opening the door for Ava, I come up with an idea. I a going to take her to Sheridan's Ice cream and then to the park.
