➸Room 43

-Chapter 16-

We were in a cab with a driver who spoke very little English. When I explained to the boys what I meant, Anthony's face went as white as paper but Mason just grew a huge smirk.

"What do you mean she's here?! I haven't seen her for like 5 years!", Anthony was freaking out as he said this. His eyes were opened wide and he was playing with his hands.

"Dude calm down, you're acting like a girl.", Mason butt in and I don't think he should've because now I'm offended.

"What do you mean he's acting like a girl?! That's offensive!"
"Guys I'm freaking out, I don't know what to do!"
"Look I'm sorry I didn't mean it like that?!"

We were all talking over each other and pretty soon we were fighting.

"THATS ENOUGH!!", a very thick Sicilian accent boomed through out the small cab. We were all taken by surprise, we all said sorry and and stayed quiet the rest of the ride.

"Oh my god, I've missed you so much!!", I ran into Carols arms just like we did in middle school. "I can't believe you're actually here!".

"Oh calm down, we were apart for a week!", Carol pulled apart as she said this. She was always the one to hide how she was truly feeling, but I know she's jumping with joy to see me.

"That's far to long! We haven't been apart that long since college.", I turned after I said that and saw two boys. One with a nostalgic face and one with a slightly confused face. Can you guess which is which?

Carolina's eyes finally land on Anthony and she looks like she's gonna cry. Anthony walks up to her and hugs her, Carols arms wrap around his body too. They don't say a word they just hug.

"We'll give you guys some time to catch up...", I smile and turn back to Mason. He's just standing there smiling. "Come on Mason, let's go get a cab.".
