On Monday, she received a text from Harry.
On Tuesday, Ben called her. On Wednesday, Louis send her an email her. On Tuesday, Will skyped her. On Friday, Max texted her. On Saturday, Jack called her. On Sunday, she got out of bed.
-I have to do this... I really do. - She whispered to herself.
She took a long shower while wondering what would she said. She prepared a speech.
"Finnegan, what happened the other day was stupid and I was wrong and angry. I want to apologise and beg you to let me participate on the Rickshaw Run because it is my dream." But then... She broke down. How would she tell him Jimmy was gone? How would she explain she stayed at bed for a whole week crying and blaming herself for her brother"s death? She would not. It was not necessary.
She dressed up and put a big jacket on. She was really cold. She took her phone and keys and after locking the door, she walked through the streets that leaded her to Harries's house. Ok. She rang the bell.
-Hello Mary! How are you? - Mister Harries said.
-Hello sir, I am fine! Thanks for asking! What about you? - She gently replied.
-I am fine! Thanks! So.. What brought you here?
-I wondered if Finnegan was here..
-Yeah, he is... Upstairs, let me call him for you but please come in.
-No, I am good here. I will wait - She said while she was shaking.
-Come on Mary! You are freezing out here! Come in and I will ask Rebecca for some hot drink!
-It is no necessary sir...
-Please!
She came in and took a sit on the table where Emmy was doing some homework. She tried not to bother her but she seemed a bit confused about what she was doing. Some minutes passed and still the girl seemed frustrated and reached the top in which she threw her pencil and started crying.
-Emmy... What happens!? - She softly asked.
-I have a spanish test on Thursday and I cannot a understand a single word and I am going to fail. - The girl said crying.
-Hey that is not true! - She hugged her - I can help you!
-Would you do that for me?!
-I definitely would!! - She said while staring at Emmy's smile. - Now, what is that you do not understand?
-Verbs.. I cannot manage the tenses...
-Listen.. There are many, but they are only teaching how to pass it from infinitive which are verbs ending in "-ar" "-er" or "ir", to past simple!
-And how do I do this?
-It is easy! You just have to put and "ó" at the end and take out the "-ar" "-er" or "ir".
-Ok... So it would be something like "cantar" changes to "cantó"!
-Exactly!! And what does that mean?
-Ehm... Sing?
-Yeah!! Perfect!! Now do it with... - She mumbled while looking at the verbs on Emmy's folder - "Salir"
-It is... "Salió" and it means go out?
-Amazing!! Now, do it by yourself and I will check them later! But let's do one more... -She gazed at the folder again - "Besar"
-It would be...
-"Besó" - Someone said from the stairs. Both girls looked and it was Finnegan. He came down wearing her pyjama.
