Blackout ✔️

Chapter 3

1/14/16
----------------------------------

My body was full of bruises, a couple of scars, and a little bit of blood. I pulled down my jacket hiding the bruises and scars.

After skateboarding for a good 15 mins. I soon arrived at the lobby and stopped to check in my mailbox. Mailbox 111

Inside was a few letters and I looked at them : bill, bill, bill, wait what's this?

It was a postcard that was decorated beautifully with lace bow that shimmered. It had a picture of a shooting star and underneath was a rooftop from a building.

On the right side of the card was a note that said : I wish you were here. I'll see you soon.

I turned it around to see if there was a name or address on the postcard, but there was none. This made my eyebrow nite together in confusion.

Who sent me this card?

I felt a stare from my back as I got goosebumps down my back. "Oh Alex I just saw Charles coming back from New England!" Mr. Smith said as he carried Ellen on his arm while opening his mailbox.

"Alex!" She yelled at me as she waved with her small little figures. She was probably one of the most adorable little kids that I knew! She has red hair curly thin hair and Mint Green eyes.

Then I looked at Mr. Smith, honest I was proud of him. He was a hard working man with two kids and his wife left him about a year ago.

Then I stared at Mr. Smith's head, he was bald and it glowed in the light. I wonder how he gets his head so shiny?

I tried imagined him with hair but instead I accidentally image him with a Mexican Sombrero instead. I laughed for a second then Mr. Smith looked at me with a confused face.

"Oh thanks for telling me!" I laughted so hard that tears almost came out but I wipe them away from my eyes. I went up the elevator into the third floor. I walked to my room and there stood Charles with his suit case and a present.

"Hey!" I yelled running down the hallways as I bear hugged him, squeezing him to death. "Hey chill Alex, I missed you." I smiled when he said that to me while returning my hug back.

I finally unlocked the door after standing there hugging him for a while.

He walked in and went to the sofa as he laid down comfortably. "Are you going to stay here tonight?" I asked as he nodded,"Why do you not want me here?"

"No it's just usually you stay with Lily instead." I told him remembering how I went to the hospital today and Mason. "How was school?" It was the second time today I've heard this question today.

"It was great." I lied and put on a fake smile to him.

"Oh yeah, did you happen to send me a postcard when you were in New England?" I though about the card and how it said ' I wish you were here'. "No, what are you talking about?" He told me as he laid there on the coach confused.

Cr@p, it wasn't Charles then who was it, everything today was just too much for a day.

I just need to sleep, I wish there was a leprechaun that busted through my door right now. But that of course didn't happen. I glanced over to Charles who was already sleeping like an old man.

It was the next morning, I looked over to my coach but he wasn't there, did Charles went to work anyway?
