you left me broken | hannie

chapter twenty-three

After Johnny came over, I had to leave to finish up some house chores. I'm cleaning the dishes while listening my spotify song list.

Ring Ring

Home Phone? I picked it up.

unknown- hello? who is this?
annie- um... can i please know who i am speaking to?
unknown- this is billy leblanc.

I dropped the phone.

This is unreal. It can't be him. No no no. I'm dreaming.

I quickly pick up the phone and end the call. I stare at the phone in shock. My eyes tear up. And before I know it, I'm full on crying. I back up to the wall and slowly sit.

Could it really be him? After all these years? My own dad? All these thoughts are giving me a horrible headache.

I manage to walk to my bedroom and text Hayden.

annie- hayden. i need you asap at my house

he left me on read. I sigh and flop on my bed. trying to clear my head of all thoughts. but that's kinda hard when your dad calls you after like 5 years out of nowhere.

I was chilling until someone repeatedly kept ringing the doorbell and slamming the door. I was really startled.

I nervously walk over to the door and nervously open the door. As you can see I am very nervous.

As soon as I open the door, a very red Hayden enters through. "ANNIE!" He shouts, pulling me knot a tight hug.

"Hey Hayden. You okay?" I ask with a questionable tone. "Me?! Are you okay! I got your text and literally ran here." He panted.

I giggled and kissed his cheek. "I'm fine. Well, sort of. Sit down." I said trying to hold back my tears.

We both sat down on the couch. Hayden had a rather anxious look. "Hayden, my dad called me." I sighed.

"What? What did he said." He asked in a hushed tone. "He, didn't say much. I kinda ended the call." I said looking down.

Hayden pulled me into another hug. He stroked my hair while we rocked back and fourth. "You aren't sick?" I asked, pulling away from the hug and placing my hand on Hayden's forehead.

He shook his head. "I feel much better. What are you thinking about doing? Are you going to tell Paige?" Hayden asked.

I thought about it for awhile. Should I tell Paige? "Um... let's not tell Paige. She'll freak out." I said, twiddling with my fingers.

"I understand. Why did your dad call you now?" Hayden asked, resting his hand on my thigh. "That's what I'm wondering." I sighed.

"Let's get your mind off things." Hayden said. I looked up at him. "How?" I asked. "Take a walk?" He suggested.

I weakly smiled and nodded. We both walked downstairs to the parking lots and walked around the local park.

It was peaceful silent walk. Well, it was silent until my phone started ringing.

I picked it up.

unknown- this is billy leblanc. is this julianna?

I froze.

annie- d-dad?
billy- yes julianna, it's me.

I quickly ended the call and looked at Hayden. He gave me a confused, concerned look. "I-It was my dad." I mumbled with my eyes watering.

Hayden pulled me into one of his warm, comforting hugs. "What did he say?" Hayden asked. "All he asked was if he was speaking to Julianna." I sobbed, with a tear rolling down my cheek.

"I don't know why this is so hard for me!" I cried. "Shh, it's okay Anns." Hayden said, rocking my back and fourth.

Little did he know, it wasn't okay.
