"Thanks for walking me home guys." I smiled.
"It's in our way home anyways, and it better than walking home with just Carl."
"True."
"I'm right here!"
Debbie and I laughed at Carl, who was faking a hurt expression. Arriving at my house, I gave Debbie a hug and Carl a kiss on the cheek.

"Why does AP calculus have to be so complicated?" I mumbled to myself.
A knock was heard at the door and Mother stood in the doorway.
"Yes?"
"You're father wants to speak with you. He's in his office." She stated and walked off.
"What the hell just happened?" I questioned to myself.

When I entered the office, Alexander was sitting in a seat and dad was staring outside of the window.
"Shut the door and take a seat Lilliana."
I did as told and waited for him to start talking.
"You know that I want what's best for you and this family, right?"
"Sure?"
"So I'm doing this because I love you."
"Doing what?"
"From now on, I don't want you socializing with the Gallaghers or anyone associated with them."
"You can't be serious."
"If I or Alexander see you with those people again, I'll have you sent away to a boarding school in Europe."
"This is all just some twisted joke-"
"The decision is final."
I looked over at Alexander, who made eye contact then smirked. I pushed past Mom, who tried to comfort me, and slammed the door to my bedroom.

It's been 2 weeks of avoiding the Gallaghers and having Alexander monitoring me.
I slammed my locker shut as Alexander tried to make conversation. As I walked away, he followed.
"Can I not get a fucking minute to myself?" I angrily questioned.
Before he could reply, I walked into the girls bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror, I looked a mess. As I was leaving, Debbie entered the bathroom.
"Lill-"
I quickly rushed out and headed to class.
