Too Young

Evidence

I couldnt sleep at all last night. What made it worse is, when i finally did, John and my mom came in my room. It was dark except for the little lamp. I watched as they was looking through my stuff. I guess for the letter? My mom was soo close to the letter that I jumped up out of bed and screamed.

"oh my god!" they both yelled.

"yall scared me, im sorry. why are yall in here?" i asked folding my arms.

"i lost something" my mom said foldimg hers.

"well i can tell you for sure its not in here"

When i said that she looked at John. I need to calm down. I cant let them know that I know.

"I never touch your shit so I know i wouldnt take any of it in my room"

John looked relieved and they both walked out.

*2 hours later*

Its 6:40am and im soo tired. I didnt get any sleep. I got in the shower and came out and put on a hoodie, sweatpants and Free Runs. I deffinetly was going to sleep in most of my classes.

I didnt want my mom to find the letter so I got my school tote that had a few books in it and stuck the letter inside. I got up and left and went next door and got in the car with Andrew. Natalie wasnt coming because of her doctors appointment.

"Hey" Andrew said smilling and trying to hold in his laughter. "Im sorry but you look like shit"

I busted out laughing.

"I couldnt sleep. John and my mom came looking for the letter. This is all too crazy" i said sighing.

"You can always come over and stay. You know that, right?"

"yeah"

"soo, what are you going to need me to help you with"

"alot. we'll start after school though. Lets just hope i can get through the day."

"okay"

*6 hours later*

Theres two minutes till the bell rings. I was soo ready to get out! I been sleep in every classroom. Im just ready for midterms to be over and then Christmas break. Tomorrow was Friday, last day. Me and Andrew got stuff to do today.

The bell rung and I walked out of class and met Andrew at the entrance. He hugged me and we walked to the car arms around eachother. Nobody is feeling any type of way yall! I just need to be comforted and he just knows.

"What do we have to do?" he said as we got in the car.

"I need to know how my dad died. I dont know not a thing. I dont even know where hes burried."

"damn girl"

"yeah i know. I need to go to the hospital to check for records, the library and i need to go through my moms room, which i need you to keep watch while i do."

"okay im down"

I smiled. I needed him back in my life and im glad he is.

We got to the hospital and I went to the front desk and just got straight to the point.

"My father died when i was 10 and I dont know how when or where, and I was wondering if you can help me" i said staring at the weird black man behind the desk.

"I probably cant. whats your name?" rude ass.

"Um, Alex."

"nope cant help you."
