Chapter 25

My mom was so hurt that she didn’t even want to talk to me. My dad was very upset too, and Vanessa was trying to avoid me as much as she could.

The first thing I did when I got home was apologize and then go to bed. I knew it would take a while to make it up to them, but I had to try, I had to lift this weight off of my shoulders.

My heart ached when I looked out of my window across the road to Ash’s house. He was in his room.

I wondered what he was doing now.

I sighed and texted Lauren.

I’m so sorry. Please let me beg on my knees for your forgiveness, let’s meet up at 2PM tomorrow at the park? 

I waited around for an hour but never got a reply. I gave up and took a hot shower, taking all my time in the world. When I got back I saw that I had one text message. I smiled a tiny bit when I saw that it was Lauren.

Don’t make me regret agreeing to this. But don’t get ahead of yourself, I’m still hurt and furious at you. See you at the park..x

That little ‘x’ meant a lot to me. She still cared, a bit, at least! I sighed of relief and took all the make-up off my face. After I changed into my PJs I looked out the window again, I couldn’t help it.

Ash’s lights were still turned on, even though it was very late, 3AM already. I turned on my laptop and saw that the Facebook page was deleted.

Then I saw 206 notifications. I clicked on the little blue and white globe and gasped.

Oh my god...

206 people wrote on my wall, apologizing and saying that Sarah was such a bitch, a whore  etc.

I felt a tiny bit bad for her , she couldn’t raise a baby, I know I might’ve done the same, gone the same route as her: get an abortion, if I ever became pregnant.

She was only 15, cut her some slack.

But then I pushed that part of me that still cared for Sarah away. She had no right to deserve my sympathy.

I logged off and went to sleep, though I barely could get to drift off because I kept glancing out of the window, checking on Ash.

He was still in his room, wide awake, probably.

The next day I felt nervous. What if Lauren doesn’t forgive me? I took a deep breath and left the house, mom and dad weren’t home and Vanessa promised not to tell. (I was still grounded.)

I texted Lauren to let her know I was at the park and sat down on a bench while I waited for her.

She appeared a few minutes later with a slight frown on her face. She started walking over to me when she saw me.

She sat down onto the bench and after I sighed, I started.

“Lauren, I’m so sorry. You were right, I was a conceited, fake, selfish bitch. Was because I’m not now..I know, ‘how can you change overnight?’...I realised what Sarah is doing, I realised what I’ve become and here I am trying to make it right. You have every right to say ‘I told you so’”
