Period 2, Period 3 and Period 4 end quickly and I manage to dodge Sophie at lunch. I know that sounds mean but I know she will grill me with 100 questions about what the hell happened at recess. To be totally honest, I don’t even know what happened or how to explain it. That’s the first time I’ve ever actually spoken back to harry, and It was slightly satisfying to stand up for myself. It seemed as though he took our parents news better than I did. I need to stop thinking about him, I need to stop thinking about everything.
I grab my bag out of my locker as it’s the end of the day and walk towards the train station. The community centre around the corner do yoga on Wednesday nights, so I decide to head over there. Yoga is probably the best option right now, as I need to clear my head and try to comprehend what the hell happened today. Luckily I had some casual clothes packed in my bag from last night. Tuesday nights I volunteer at the animal shelter down the street from my house. What can I say, I’m a complete animal lover.
I walk into the change rooms and change into my old leggings and a black and white stripped t-shirt. They don’t smell so good so I spray deodorant all over and quickly tie my hair into a tight bun. I run into the community hall taking a matt from the side and picking a spot close to the instructor. Yoga goes for over an hour and by the end of it I’m feeling completely relaxed.
I call mum seeing if she can pick me up and surely enough she arrives in 20 minutes. 20 minutes was a bit long to ponder about all the things my future holds, now that mums seeing the father of the biggest jerk in our school.
“Hey honey, how was your day?” mum questions as soon as I jump into front seat.
It was the weirdest and shittest day ever, I think to myself.
“Fine thanks mum, and yours?”
“Great, William and I… o-oh sorry, I forgot your just getting used to this.”
“No mum, its fine honestly! If you’re happy then I’m happy!” I reply with the fakest smile.
“Then why am I getting the feeling you’re not happy?” she commented.
“It’s just… H-He’s…. oh, never mind.”
“Mia, tell me, what’s on your mind?” she concerned.
“It’s just… William is…. Williams harry styles’ dad. The biggest jerk in my school!” I blurt out.
“Oh…I…”
“It’s okay mum!” I interrupt. “I just can’t guarantee we are going to get along.”
“I don’t expect you to get along with him if he’s a jerk Mia! But I have met him and he seemed sweet…”
“Sweet is a word I would definitely not use to describe Harry Styles.” I interrupt again. I turn away and stare out the window.
“As long you two can be civil, than I’m fine with you not liking him.” She compromises.
“Mum it’s me, of course I’m going to be civil, it’s him you should be worried about.” I add.
“I will talk to William then.”
“Okay” I blandly reply staring out the window. Thank god we are right around the corner from our house because I can’t stand another second trapped in this car with mum. Especially talking about Harry. It’s weird to think that just yesterday I would never have talked about or talked to harry and now he’s been in basically every conversation I have engaged in today.
I grasp my school bad and open the car door, accidently slamming it behind me.
“Sorry I didn’t mean that!” I shout out to mum who’s walking slowly behind me.
We reach the front door and mum turns the lock! “Zeus!” I yell in excitement as he runs towards the front door.
“I missed you today buddy” I tell him as he licks my face. “Come on, do you want some dinner” I say while grabbing my bag and dumping it on the couch. I continue my walk to the kitchen and crack open a can of dog food. I dump the food into Zeus’ bowl to the left of the backyard door and dump the empty can in the bin.
“I’m going upstairs mum, call me when dinners ready” I shout as I climb the deadly stairs.
