"Mom!" I yelled when I entered the house.

I threw my bag to the side, walking up the stairs. I had burning questions to ask her, things to clear up. I still didn't get why she never told me about my father trying to contact me. What was her reason for covering up all these?

I just needed the answers.

"Mom!" I yelled once again.

I finally reached the top of the stairs to see Lucy staring at me. She looked shocked - probably at the fact that I was screaming like madmen from the first floor. "Miss Hartman, good evening." she greeted me politely.

Times like this makes it hard for me to be angry. I couldn't vent my anger on her.

"Your mother is away for the weekend." she informed me.

"What?" I asked, although I knew exactly what she was saying.

She repeated again and this time, I felt so irritated at how the occurrence of certain events just happen at the same time. Once again, nothing goes as planned. "She went over to Milan with a few friends to spend some time together." she informed me.

I ran my hand through my hair, feeling so irritated at the moment. I wanted to scream at someone but I knew Lucy hadn't done anything wrong to deserve my screaming. I stomped my feet on the ground as I raced to my room, closing my door loudly.

I'm just mad right now. I can't take it.

I wanted to call Amber but I've done enough ranting to her that it's made me even more agitated that I was before. I grabbed my pillow, hugging it tightly to release all my anger. It doesn't really help. I grabbed my phone in my pocket and texted the only person I could think of.

'Having a bad day.'

I knew I shouldn't be texting him right now but he's the only person I can really talk to at the moment.

'You okay? Wanna talk it over dinner?'  - Niall

I stared at my screen. Maybe I needed company tonight...

No, stop. It was a bad idea. If paparazzi caught us there was going to be so much explaining to do and I can't risk it. And what would Harry think? Wait, it's not like it matters. It's not like we're actually dating. 

'It's alright. Mind if I call you?'

I closed my eyes, thinking if it was a good idea to talk to Niall. We didn't really know each other well but we started texting by impulse. He's a really nice person and a good listener and that was what I needed right now. 

It seems like the only listener I had was gone for three years and it's already too much to take to know that your mother have been lying to you.

As I was deep in thought, I felt the object in my hand vibrate and his name popped up on the screen. I just needed a listener for tonight.

It was Saturday afternoon and Claudia had called me to tell me that she'd delivered the dress I was supposed to wear to this event. But I wasn't so bothered with what was going to happen tonight. I was excited at first but my mood for the event was down. 

"Knock, knock!" Amber said as she opened my room door. She had a big smile on and in her hands was a big box. "Guess what Liz & I found lying at your front porch?" she said as they both wiggled their eyebrows at me.
