Taming the inner her

chapter 27

Clarie's pov

I finally went home the next day after school. Emma gave me her clothes to wear to school and they didn't feel nice at all.

I got inside the house after Eiden dropped me but not without telling me to listen to my parents. What I saw made me regret coming home immediately
My stomach convulsed as I saw boxes in the living room
Some sealed some still opened

Sam came down the stairs with a box filled with dad's documents and files
"oh thank goodness you came home finally
Would you please get your things ready so we can get set to leave" did he just say that

"what's your problem Sam
Please don't you tell me you're OK with us moving
Don't you like it here".

"course I do but-"

"don't you have friends here already
What about your girlfriend are you willing to Just leave them"

"I do but that's not it"

"then what
They made you selfish Like them didn't they "

My dad was coming down from the the stairs and all I wanted to do was to leave his sight

"Clarie wait listen"
He said as I ran up the stairs

Once I got into my room I locked the door even though Laura knocked on the door tirelessly to talk to me
I didn't open up

Later my mom came "darling we need to talk"

"go away"

"it's not what you think that is happening"

"I've got eyes and a brain no one needs to spell it out for me that we are moving"

"fine we're moving but can I at least speak to you"

"why are you like this
You keep breaking my heart each time
I have friends here and I'm not willing to leave them"

"right but please open up
I need to see you to talk to you"
She said sounding sad

Even though I feel like I hate my parents my mom always knows how to make me talk to her

I opened the door after a short while and allowed her to come in

"honey you're right we're moving
We're leaving this place but-"

"but nothing mom
Fine we're moving but would you at least let me stay for the Christmas dance"

"but-"

"would you!"

"yeah sure but-"

"I need to get my things ready
Please excuse me"
I said ushering her out of my room with my hand

Immediately she left I shut the door and fell resting my back behind it
At this point I couldn't even cry
I've cried too much in the past

I feel nothing

The dance is on Wednesday and as at today the school was already decorated to some point

The thought of me leaving just makes me feel so bad
That's when it hit me
Eiden wasn't worried about me leaving

He wasn't
He didn't care
He was almost so calm when I told him I was
Even though Emma looks all though she couldn't help her self from crying today, but Eiden didn't even blink

He lied to me
He fucking lied to me
I should have known. He doesn't really love me like he said yesterday
Deep down I was giving myself a thumbs up for not saying it back
