Chapter 4-"Leaving Home "
Date of breakup -12th Feb
7 days after breakup
It had been a week after the accident and cheryl was back home,i gave my parents to give her a get well soon flower ,she was also back to school.I couldnt deal with it so instead i went with my best option i ran from them both, I avoided Cheryl and Steven so hard that I am now restricted to entering some places. I pick out one of my best books "Duchess of beauty".It was a Saturday, I had Nothing else to do than well I guess read.
"Nicole get down here, "mum screamed and I guess solitude is over. I walk downstairs, only to see some lady with silverlike kind of hair and piercing blue eyes, she looked like mum's age .
"Hi Nicole, my you have grown alot since you were twelve, "and thats when it hit me.
"Aunt Rowan, "I say unsure of the name and she gives me a nod, the familiarity was really the eyes, aunt Rowan's mum bestfriend,they were like sisters,she lived in newyork and her house made my house look like a rat's hole .
"How's Tom ? "I ask, Tom was their dog ,when I stayed back there, Tom was like a close friend to me ,something always told me he never liked that name while Genevieve,rowan's daughter was like a sister to me.
"He's doing alright and I got you this, "she says taking out a red dress from her bag ,it looked amazing.
"It's beautiful, "I compliment taking the gown from her hands.
"Yes it is Rowan but... "mom trails off when she sees am staring.
"How about you try it darling, "aunt Rowan tells me more like her saying get out your mom is about to kill me.
"How many times have I told you.... "mom begins and am already halfway up to my room.
The dress looked amazing on me,it was styled perfectly, it stopped at my thigh and had little opening at both sides. I walked down the stairs gracefully like in those Cinderella movie but it just wasn't the Same effect cause in those movies the crowd would be all oohs and aahs but all I get are two old women bickering at each other like small kids.
"It's nice aunt Rowan really it is, but am sorry I can't take it,hope you aren't mad, "I speak politely, I couldn't take the dress, mom was already acting up like this, imagine I wear it *WORLD WAR |||*And I Dont think California would really hold up against Newyork.
"It's okay darling, "aunt Rowan reassured.
"But honey, "mom added.
"It really is a lovely dress, "mom complimented.
"Yeah I know but I can't take it, "I whisper loudly, hoping she'll play the it looks beautiful on you, you should keep it card.
"Nicole I Also wanted to remind you, we will be leaving tomorrow, "
"Ready for what, leaving to where tomorrow, what in fricken hell's name is going on, "I scream trying to get answers.
"Rowan, "my mom says placing her palms on her forehead.
"Sweetheart I forgot to tell you, "mom recalls.
"You are going to go with Rowan here back to the Newyork it's just for two months, I already resolved everything with your school, "mom says adjusting to my reaction. I just try to absorb all that's going on around.
Am going to the Newyork
Rich snobby people
Genevieve
No Steven
"Sweetheart I forgot am so sorry, "mom pleads.
"I think I'll be leaving see you by five, "With that aunt Rowan leaves.
"It's just that I wanted you to leave here for a while and two months was all I could give, "mom sadly adds.
"It's okay mom am not angry if anything am escalated,"I happily say jumping around hugging her.
"I'm going to miss you so much, "she smiles kissing me all over.
"Mom! "I fake sigh at her gesture.
"Am not a baby, "I slip on a face.
Am a matured, sophisticated lady going to start living in newyork . I keep repeating it to myself as I walk back up the stairs, I had forgotten I still had the dress until three falls ago.

"Mom you have been hugging me for the past hour, I get it, you will miss me ,"Philip repeats bored for the Second time.
"Dad you can stop now,I think am warm enough, "I tell my dad who had been slipping sweater upon sweaters upon jackets on me. Frankly if New York was that cold,he might as well give me the heater.
"Hi, "I hear a voice from behind me while shoving the last sweater back at my dad whose giving the puppy eyes. I turn back staring at a blonde girl with forest green eyes.
"Hey Cheryl, "I say drily.
"Can I talk to you? "She says mildly like a kid asking for their candy back. I am about to scream at her so she could get the fuck away from my face.
"Sure,"I whisper back wondering where all my will power had gone,I walked up to my room with her.
"Nice sweaters, "she says giggling a bit at the awkwardness
"Yah it's all my dad, "I say laughing right back.
"You couldn't possibly miss it, "she says chuckling loudly.
"Leave it to my dad to go overboard, "I inisist.
"Nicole am really sorry, "she says after the laughter had died down.Tears where already rolling down her eyes and that when I see her puffy red eyes and her large eyebags under her eyes.
"It's okay cheryl, "I say wrapping my arms around. You could say the accident made it easier for her plus the tears I couldn't see her like this.
"This is really hard to hug, "She says gesturing to the sweater
"I swear my arms hurt like hell, "I say dropping my hands back to my sides.
"Time to leave, "Aunt Rowan screams from downstairs,I finish up packing with Cheryl where we have been talking about everything except one thing.
"Done, "I skip back downstairs with my box wearing all the sweaters courtesy of my dad, philip had already started loading the van.
