Six days after the paint fight. I had been home about ten minutes when my phone started to ring. The name in the screen read: Jodie.
I picked it up.
"Hey. Can you meet me at the park bench in GreenPark?" She cried into the phone.
"Yeah I'll see you there in half an hour" I replied.
Half an hour later we were sat on the park bench.
We lay down on the dark green grass and talked things through.
"Here read this" Jodie said as she handed me a letter.
"So Rory is your little brother and who is Tally?" I asked Jodie after reading the letter.
"Tally is my bestfriend from my old school" she sniffed.
"Why didn't you tell me about this wonderful little brother of yours" I asked.
"I didn't tell you about him because ever since I moved here I've been trying to forget about him" she sniffed again.
"Come here" I whispered and Jodie lent her head on my shoulders. We stayed like this in silcence for a while and then I walked her home.
"I'm sorry about your loss" I whispered as I hugged her goodbye. It didn't seem like the right time to kiss her so I just lightly pressed my lips to her head and walked off home.
