I hoped on a bus and rode down to LA. Sabrina lived about an hour and a half from me. I had arrived at Sabrina's. I walked up to her door and knocked hoping she would answer. She did. I was in tears and she asked me what's wrong. I told her about everything. She brought me inside and said I can stay as long as I need too. A couple days later I was taking a walk and just clearing my mind and thinking about what I'm going to do next. I was probably a couple houses down from Sabrina's when I saw this boy. He looked about my age, maybe a year older. He looked worried, like he had just lost something. I decided to walk up to him. "Hey you Ok?" I asked. "Oh hey, actually my dog ran out a couple of minuets ago and I have no idea where she is." He said with panic in his voice. "I can help you look if you'd like" he smiled and nodded in agreement. We spent about an hour looking until we finally found his dog. He looked so happy. I walked back with him and his dog. "Thanks so much for helping me, oh and I'm Jack by the way." He said. "No Problem, and I'm Rickey" I said, for some reason he gave me butterflies I've never felt this way before. " Hey you wanna go grab something to eat?" He asked me. " Yeah I'd love too"
We went to go take his dog to his house then we headed off to eat. We ended up at a water burger downtown. We ordered our food and had a seat. "To be honest I don't think I've seen you in the neighborhood before, did you just recently move?" He said. "Well actually I'm staying with a friend who lives a few houses up from you" I replied. "Nice, so what brings you here, acting, singing, or just simply visiting?" He asked. "Um well it's a long story" I replied with tears in my eyes. "Are you Ok?" He asked me. He sounded like he really cared. I decided to tell him about how I left home. He stood up and gave me a hug. I felt, well I felt special for once. Jack made me feel special. Wow.
We walked home and he gave me his number and said if I need anything he's always there. He dropped me off at Sabrina's. As she saw me walk in she asked, "who was he?" I blushed and said, "just a new friend" She looked at me and smiled. I went up to the room I was staying in, and laid down on the bed with Joy in my heart. Later that day Jack texted me and asked how I was doing. I asked if maybe he wanted to see a movie together, he agreed. The next day we went to the movies. At the movies we walked in and I saw Ellington and Rydel...
I wanted to die. I hadn't seen her in more than amonth. Then she looked at me, my heart sank and I wanted to cry. Jack looked at me and asked if I was ok. I told him my sister is over there. Rydel ran over to me. "Rickey?" She said. I stood there like a statue with tears rolling down my cheeks. She hugged me and she started to cry. She asked me why I left,what was going through my mind, just why, why, why.
I told her everything. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't happy to see her. I told her and Ellington not to tell anyone that they saw me. They looked hesitant but agreed. Later that night Jack dropped me off at Sabrina's. I told him thanks and said good night. He Smiled and said same to you. I went up stairs and began to cry. Sabrina saw me and asked what had happened. I told her everything.
