(Crystals pov)

It's 3:00 in the morning and my father hasn't gotten back which is worrisome. I mean its a Saturday and all, but he shouldn't be out for more then 7 hours. Rachel can't come over for a while since she's grounded for no reason and every Every time the phone rings I hope it's from her, but It never is.

My 19th birthday is in 2 weeks, like my dad will remember, he's always been bad with dates.

I sat down on the couch and put my earbuds in, I listened to myself sing since I don't sing anymore. I haven't sang for 2 years.. the phone rang over my music and I quickly clicked pause to answer.

"Hello?"

"Is this Crystal Green??" A male asked through the phone.

"Yes who is this?"

"It's the town police. Is your father Jason green?"

"Yes what happened is he okay" my heart thumped loudly in my chest.

"Yes... But he's been arrested. He need to serve 4 years in jail."

What.. No.. This is a joke, the cameras are gonna pop out any second I know they are.

"Is this some kind of joke?!? Why!?!" I shouted into the phone.

"Calm down crystal. He was dealing drugs."

"No! That's not like him! I have no one now!"

"You need to find any relative and live with them.."

"I'm 18 almost 19 But I'll go to England where my aunt faith is."

"Okay I'd like you to come down to the station for a while first"

I knew I had to and I didn't want to.

Ill go there but not live with her. How am I gonna move all my stuff.  My car is small.. I don't have much money to buy a rental truck Unless i sell some stuff that was my parents.
