Wyatt and I were inside the study, working on our project. We had been working for about two hours. I was trying to finish as much as I could, so I wouldn't have to step foot in this house ever again.

Working on this project was awkward as hell. The only time I would talk is when he asked a question or was confused. I hate how Wyatt would sometimes bring up a childhood memory. It was annoying. We aren't friends anymore, so I don't understand why he kept bringing up the past. Our project was quite simple. We had to build the solar system and map out what the planet does every thirty two days. To me, it seems like something a 5th grader could do.

I took my phone out of my pocket and saw that it was already nine. I start to pack my things up, wanting to leave now before it got dark. Since the walk from here to my house was far. "I'm gonna go," I say, to Wyatt.

"Oh, um okay. Do you need a ride?" He asks.

"No, I'll walk."

"Okay, I'll walk you out."

"Okay," I say, leaving out the room. I didn't need him to walk me out of the house. I knew where every room was. We were walking but stopped when we heard someone call Wyatt's name. We turn around to see that it was only Lena.

"Where are you guys headed?" She asks.

"I'm just walking Kelly to the door," Wyatt says.

Lena looked back at me with a frown on her face. "You're leaving?"

"Yeah."

"Stay for dinner."

I didn't know if that was a command or a question. So I only nod my head. "Um okay, sure," I say.

Lena's frown turns into a smile. "Good. You both go have a seat at the dinner table." Lena says.

"What time is dad coming home?" Wyatt asks his mother.

"In a few minutes."

"Okay," he responds. I walked inside of the dining room and sit down on a chair. The table was huge and could fit about 50 people. They always did have a big family Wyatt came in and sat right by me. "You didn't have to stay." He says, leaning back in the chair.

"I know," I state.

Wyatt takes a deep breath. "Look, I wanted to apologize for wh--." He starts to say, but I cut him off, by raising my hands.

"I don't want your apology. It means nothing to me. After the project, we will go back to not knowing, each other's existence." I say. Anger was rising in me because of him. He looks like he was going to say something but then a voice interrupts him.

"Gioia, I'm home." I recognized the voice and stiffen. Tears threaten to fall from my eyes but I wouldn't dare let that happen. The man that I recognize as Wyatt's father walks into the dining room and looks at me. "Oh, we have a guest." Wyatt's father stated. I shift in my seat.

How could I be so stupid!

A lot of horrible memories came rushing to my head. This was wrong, me coming here was wrong. I feel my hands trembling under the table. Lena walks back into the dining room with the food in her hands. "Leo, you remember Kelly, don't you?" She sets the food down on the table. "Mya's daughter."

Leo's face turns into a smile, but if you look closely you could tell it was a fake one. "Of course. After all, she was over here all the time as a kid." He says. His Italian accent plays in my head. I was remembering everything from that night, which was causing me to sweat uncontrollably.

"You okay Kelly?" Lena asks sitting down. "You're looking flushed."

"Ahh... Yes, it's just that I remembered my uncle is coming home from work early and would freak out if he knew I wasn't home yet." I say, standing up.

"We could always call him," Leo offers. I could hear the hatred in his voice.

"I'm sorry, I have to go," I say, getting up and walking away.

Wyatt grabs my arm and stops me. I glare down at him. He sees my face and quickly lets go of my arm. "I'll walk you out."

I quickly shake my head no. "No. You stay, enjoy your food." I say to him. I turn and look back at Lena. "Thank you for your hospitality." I walk out of the dining room and gather my stuff. I walk out of their house and shut the door silently.
