Chapter 4
I woke up and got to my same causal clothes like always. Cody runs into my room and growls at me. Oh no. I forgot to feed him.
"Ok. Ok. I'll feed you wait."
I quickly get his bowl out and fill it with his dog food. He barks happily and eats it proud. I run into Carly's room to see her all ready. I sigh and go downstairs with her on my tail. I see mom making food like always. Today she says that she made food for me. I sit down and start eating. I don't think we ever had a proper family dinner like this one. It's really quiet now. All you hear is people eating there breakfast.
"How was your first day?" She asks.
Now she's saying this?
"It was alright I guess." I take a sip out if my orange juice.
"You Carly?" She asks as she cuts her food.
"Oh mommy it was so wonderful! I made a lot of friends and then we played games! But we got homework." She states sadly. Mom laughs as I snort. Welcome to homework.
"It gets harder when your older." I say. Mom hits my arm and shushed me.
Mom didn't want to worry Carly.
"Harder?" She asks nervously.
"No sweety. It makes you smarter dear. It just challenges you that's all."
Then it gets quiet again. I hear a bus beeping and Carly shoots up.
"Let's go walk you to the bus, wait for mommy ok.?" She yells.
Mom turns to me and puts a hand on my shoulder.
"Have a nice day." She smiled and walks out the door. I was pretty shocked. She never says that to me. Was it all to act nice? I nod my head and grab my skateboard but Cody barks. I sigh and get on my knees to his height.
"Cody I gotta go. I promise we'll play at the park." I kiss his wet nose and he licks my face.
I laugh.
"Stop Cody it's gross." I laugh again.
Me and Cody were friends. He always understood me in a way. It was amazing.
I still remember the day I found him.FLASHBACK
I was running in the rain to get to my house. I had no umbrella so this was pure shit. I didn't really care anymore cause I was soaking wet anyways. (Don't think dirty you nasty people!)
I checked into my pockets and remembered I had NO keys.
"Fuck!" I cursed.
I was shivering. Mom wasn't home yet so I was in deep trouble. I knew I was gonna get sick today. I saw a store near by and I ran under the shade. I pulled out my phone. Thank god it wasn't wet.
I called mom but it went to voicemail.
I sighed and rubbed my shoulder. I ran again to a park. Maybe someone could help me. There was this nice little old lady. She had an umbrella with a dog.
The dog seemed injured. I worked at the vet around this time so I ran up to her.
"Is that dog hurt?"
"Yes darling I think it broke something."
I moved his arms and legs and it made like a cry sound.
"The leg is broken. I could take it to the vet to get it checked." I said. She thanked me and I called my boss to come and get us. He was nice . We knew each other too well.
He was like a father to me.
As he came and he drove us I asked if it was her dog.
"No, I found him in the rain crying. But I can't keep this dog. I'm to old."
I smiled at the old lady.
"Aw come on! You look 26." I joked.
She laughed slightly and nodded her head.
We were at the vet and we had to wait a little while. My boss said he was fine and I praised The Lord! Since nobody couldn't keep the dog I took him in my arms and named him Cody.
He barked so I think he liked it too.
Mom and Carly were alright with it. Carly loved my dog. They would play with each other. It was nice. It was a good, new start.FLASHBACK ENDED
Now I was in Layla's car and we were singing to the songs on the radio. Layla said I was a good singer. Nobody really heard me sing. Only my friends and family. But I really wasn't into singing that much. It just calms me.
"So i heard that you were with Mr. Hot stuff. " she said and smiled devilish .
"Who told you that?!" I basically yelled.
"Carly." She laughed and gripped her hands on the wheel as she made a turn.
"That little big mouth! She can't keep a secret! Not even one!"
"How is Brad?" I asked.
"I don't really know. We had seen each other at school but it's like he is keeping something from me."
I felt anger flood through me. Was he cheating on her? Maybe he would flirt with other girls but I don't think he would cheat. I was mad.
"Helena you ok?" She asked.
"I'm fine it's just-" I felt tears come down.
"I'm mad at everything. My life is just shit!" I banged my hand in the board .
She stopped the car and hugged me . We sat in that position for a while the. She started driving.
I looked out the window to see hell. Was I really ready for school?
I sighed and got out walking though the crowd. I looked at my school.
To my left were the dark people . Goth,emo, etc. my right was the nerds. So smart and everything. Straight ahead of me were the "popular" sluts. They wear clothes to expose . Guys stare blah blah.
"Helena!" A high pitched voice said.
I turned to see Brittney Spears. Just kidding. Brittney Stars. She was the popular girl in school with her little group. Britney walked up to me and handed my a folded paper.
"This is an invitation to my house party. Bring your friends and everybody!" She smirked at me.
I really had nothing against her.
"Sure." I smiled and grabbed it.
Her eyes were focused on someone else. I followed her eyes and saw freaking Tyler! Oh hell no!
I walked off and held my bag closed to my arms and walked to my locker.
Why should I care though? Do I care about this guy? Why? I pushed a piece of hair out of face and got ready for Mr. Zeeman's class.
It was soooooooo boring.
I felt bad for this girl Allie Rey because she would get picked on a lot. I thought of her as a friend. One time we saw a movie together and we started talking and laughing. I don't know why they bullied her. She is so nice.
"Allie up to the board." He called.
She was really nervous in front of people. She got up the board and started shaking. The class started laughing. I saw the tears in her eyes .
She ran and I ran after her.
"Ms. Green!" I heard that dick called.
I ran into the bathroom and heard her crying.
"Allie it's me Helena. Forget what those people say or do. Your perfect in your own way." I said.
I found her in a stall crying. I hugged her and let her cry as her tears feel onto my jacket.
"Will you stay here for me?" She whispered.
"Of course! Just follow me and you'll have a friend."
"You'll be okay." I whispered.
This is going to be a long day....
