Almost Impossible

Chapter Eleven

*Leonardo Rios.*

The sun rays flickered through the curtins filling my room with light. The disturbing light and heat burned my closed eyelids and forced me to wake up. It was worse than any alarm clock.
Reluctantly and painfully, I sat up on my bed and it felt like a huge rock was on my head and a train was going to and fro in my stomach. I thought i was going to die. I realised that i was still fully clothed in my party outfit. I could hardly remember anthing after i found Shane and Jade kissing. And the more i tried to remember the worse my headache became. I laid down again, but the pain didn't go away. I should have known what was coming while drinking too much.

After a while. I gathered enough strenght and courage to stand up from bed. I brushed my teeth to rid mouth of the aftertaste of the alcohol. Then i showered and got rid of the dress that reeked of alcohol. I put on khaki shorts and a tight shirt.

I went over to my dressing table to tame my wild hair. I found my phone. The battery was dead. I got a powerbank and plugged my phone in it to revive it. It came on few minutes later and i sat to take a look at it.

45missed calls and 16 messages.

No wonder the battery died.
I had missed calls from my dad, Diana, Ayla, Ellen, Bells, Anji, Fabe, and of course Shane.
I rolled my eyes when his name appeared.
I went over to see the messages.
There were from my dad, Ayla, Shane and Leo.

My dad
Hey kiddo, how's it going at home? Called but you didn't answer. We just arrived at Meybey. The view is breath-taking. We'll be back Monday morning. Try not to cause a fiasco while we're gone. Stay safe honey, love you. xx

Ayla
Hey babe,
You haven't called to fill me in. I already told the others. We're waiting on you. xxx

I tried not to cry. I didn't want to tell them what happened. I was still hurting too much.

Leo
Hey, Mitchelle. I thought i should text and ask how you're doing. If you are still sad. I could come over and you'll have a shoulder to cry on. Call me if you want to hang out.

I smiled. He must have been the person who brought me home. Though how i got to bed is still a mystery.
The other messages were from Shane. I didn't read them. I wasn't interested in what he had to say. I couldn't care less.

I tamed my hair and went downstairs to find something to eat and take some painkillers.

The house seemed empty. It looked like Shane hadn't come home. He probably spent the night with Jade.
I tried to put him at the back of my mind as i went to the kitchen.
There was a note on the frigde. From where i stood i could see it was in Shane's handwriting.
A part of me wanted to grab the note and rip it to shreds without a second look at it.But the sensible part went over to where it was took it and read it. It said.

Hey,
I couldn't wait for you to get up from bed to give me an explanation as to how you left the party. I was worried sick about you. I thought horrible things had happened to you. Get ready to give me full details on what happened after you left me to go to the ladies. I'm out with Jade. She and i are back together. I thought you should be the first to know. I'll be back before dinnertime. Don't bother to cook. We'll just order takeouts. See you then.
Shane.

He was back with her. I should've known. i squeezed the note into a ball and tossed it into the waste basket. I made up my mind not to think about Shane today.
I made myself a bowl of cereal and had it with a few toast and orange juice. I took some painkillers after thst for the headache and decided to call Fabian. I didn't want to talk to any of the girls today. They'll ask me about the party and Shane and i wasn't ready to discuss them.
He didn't pick up which meant he was interveiwing someone or publishing articles. I'm proud of him and i'm sure he'll become a famous journalist one day.
I thought of it and decided to call Leo. He picked up at the second ring.
