The Boy Accross The Way

The call

The house was so quiet, but then I heard a door slam. Mom must be home I thought "Aria are you upstairs?" My mother asked sounding kind of pissed off.

"Yea mom I'll be down in just a few minutes," I said trying not to make her anymore pissed than she already was. I was kinda scared to go down stairs becuse when my mom had a bad day all hell breaks lose. I finally made my way down stairs only to find out I was walking into hell. My mom was running around saying curse words in a diffrent language I didn't know she could speak. "Mom, tell me what happened and please speak English," I said get angry to because I didn't know what she was saying.

"Your father called me at work today, tell me he wants to see you apparently my secretary told him that you were on summer vacation," said my mother. "Who the hell does he think he is telling me he wants to see you after he left us," said my mother.

She was right he did leave but he was still my dad. I remember it like it was yesterday, when I would come home from school and he would have cookies raedy, but before I could have one he would help me with my homework. The he left it was raining outside and I remember hearing my mother crying and begging him not to leave but, he left anyway I cried for two hours hoping that he would walk through the door but he never came back. Why did he want to see me now I thought about this before I said "I want to go see him if you don't mind"

"Its fine with me as long as you don't start anything with him and you have to be sure because I only have enough money to get you to London so you have to find out how to get back," said my mother

"Okay thanks for understanding mom," I said

"Alright now go and start packing I'll call the airport and see when the next flight leaves for London, " said my mother.

I upstairs and started packing when my phone rang it was my friend Amy "hello," I said.

"Hey, your mom texted me and she told me that your dad called her and that you were going to visit him, I wanted to make sure you were okay," said Amy.

"Yea I'm find god why the hell does my mom have your phone number anyways?" I said.

"I gave it to her just in case I couldn't get a hold of you," she said.

"Alright well I have to finish packing and then go to bed so good bye and good night," I said. Then I hung up the phone before she could say anything else. After I was finished packing I went straight to bed I fell asleep right away for some reason I was really tired.
