Unwillingly Separated (Liam Payne)

Chapter 20 (Disconnected)

Just wanted to say I'm re-editing this story and chapter 5 I added a part to it so you might want to re-read it or just half it. But it pretty much just Hellen and Gabriella met and Hellen gave her a hug and said she will take care of her brother.

Sorry for slow updates I should be updating tonight I just keep procrastinating on editing it so it taking me awhile plus I've been busy.

-----------------

It was finally my turn with the phone so I can call and invite my brother and his foster parents home. I really just want Carter over I don't exactly trust his adopted parents.

I pick up the number from the table that mrs. Johnson gave me, I dialed it and it started ringing. The phone kept ringing and I look around waiting for an answer. After the 5th ring someone finally picks up.

"Hello?" The person answer, it sound like a girl I'm guessing Hannah.

"Um Hi, this is Gabriella, Carter sister."

"Oh, hello honey what can I do for you?"

"We are having a family night tomorrow from 5pm-7pm I was wondering if you guys would bring Carter?"

It was quiet on the other line, I heard a little voice and I knew for sure it was Carter. "Who is that?" He asked.

She moves the phone from her face I'm guessing because I could barely hear her. "Just an old friend, go play?"

"Okay sorry I'm back-"

"Why didn't you tell him it's me?" I asked.

"Oh it's a surprise, calm down. We will be there I wanted to surprise him with seeing you.. Now I gotta go." She said but before I could say anything the phone went dead.

It was finally Sunday, everyone was working on what they have to do. I had to clean the dishes which Im done with. Me and Alana sat at my favorite spot which is by the window where the books are.

"So are you excited to see your family?" She asked me smiling.

"Yeah. My brother" I smiled.

"Oh.. How old is your brother?"

"He's 8" I smiled softly. Every time I talk about him I miss him more, I miss how annoying he would be sometimes, I miss how he would hide my stuff and made me guess where they was. I miss our family.

"Awh that's cute does he live with your parent?" I looked down and I guess she could tell that I really didn't want to talk about it.

"Oh.. I'm so sorry, you don't have to talk about it-" I cut her off and smiled softly.

"It's fine, no hes adopted now I think." I said.

"I'm sorry." She said and I nod and give her a soft smile show she know I'm fine.

"What about you? Who are you inviting?"

"My mum and two sisters, my dad left us." She said.

"My dad left us too.. For another lady." I said and gasp.

"Really?" I nod slowly.

"We have a lot in common" she said and I chuckled a little.

We finish everything and had the snacks sitting on in the living room and Christina and Abby where working on the dinner.

Everyone looked so nice and dressed up, I just decided to wear some Jeans a black blouse with my hair down.

The doorbell ring and Abby goes and opens the door inviting everyone in (they told us to never answer the door unless we have permission) Abby greets the people as they come in and the adults hugs the kids they came to see.

I never knew why people are in group home if they got someone who love and care about them, like the people here. But I guess their is a lot going on that we don't know.

"Gabriella!" Jasmine called my name and I turned around. "Gabriella, this is my mum, grandma and sister." She smiled pointing to tbem.

"It's nice to meet you sweetie" her mum said and I smiled.

"Nice to meet you all too." I smiled at all them.

I walk to the window and look outside then look at the time. 5:40pm probably just running a little late. I walk to the kitchen and watch Christina.

"Need any help?" I asked Christina and Abby.

"Oh no sweetie we have it, go spend time with your family." Christina smiled and I smiled softly walking away.

"Dinner is ready!" Abby chimed. She is always so happy I wish I was like that.

Everyone got up walking to the kitchen getting in line to get their food. I watched at everyone was talking and smiling, I couldn't help but smile too.

I looked at the time 6:20pm. I walked to the front room and looked out the window. No sign of them, they are not coming. I should of knew, specially when Hannah didn't tell Carter she was talking to me.

"Gabriella.. You okay?" Alana walked up to me and stand beside me.

"Yeah I'm fine." I smiled softly at her then look back down.

"Where your family?" She asked.

"They aren't here." I said as I walked over to where the phone was and grab it looking around to see if anyone looking. I walked to the back in a quiet room, I'm pretty sure it was one of the other girls room but I don't care.

I grab piece of paper out my pocket that had Hannah number on it, I looked at the paper and dial the number that was on the paper and put the phone up to my ear.

"We're sorry, you have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.-"
