Back to reality...School

~Next morning ~
I just finished my barn chores so then I showered and brushed my hair. I didn't want to do much to my hair or outfit much I don't want any attention drawn to me. I just want to blend in. Rumor has it Grandpa has informed me that Lou is going to take us to school. I don't know where he's going with this since Amy and Lou are not the best in terms right now and my awkward argument with Amy I was assuming that it would  be tense.

~On the way to school~
Lou took a sip of her coffee but her face immediately went into disgust.
"What I don't understand is that we're in the middle of cow country and we can't get a decent latte anywhere,"Lou Stated
"They're beef cattle,"Amy informed her
"Yeah I grew up here,"Lou said
"Doesn't look like it,"I said
"Really? Cause my friends in New York think I'm a genuine barrel racing cattle punching cowgirl,"Lou attempts to say so with an accent I giggled at her attempt
"Or at least that's what you tell them,"Amy said
"Was dad at the funeral?"Amy asked Lou
"He should of been but you know what it would of been like...Grandpa,"Lou said to Amy
"You know I was five when he left Lou,
I barely even remember him. it's not like he ever tried to get a hold of us or anything,"Amy said
"It's true Lou.. still to this day I've never met him. I mean I don't even know if he knows I exist,"I said
"Liv mom informed him long ago he knows about you, he wanted to see you two,"Lou said I looked at her puzzled and confused
"You called him?"Amy asked
"Please don't tell grandpa,"Lou replied
"He's going to find out eventually,"I remind Lou
"Yes he will but please don't make it to the point where he finds out through you OR Mallory,"Lou replied knowing that Mallory and I tend to spread the word fast in this town without even realizing it at times.
"You know what I always wondered what it'd be like to have a dad now I just don't care,"Amy said
"At least the both of you had dad for a couple of years...I have no memories of him at all. Well that's because we've never met,"I said
"But like I said Liv I barely remember him,"Amy replied to me

~At school (4the grade)~
I found at my desk a sympathy card with lots of my classmates signature. My teacher came up to me concerned and letting me know that she's there for me so are the counselors. Great the last thing I want to deal with is a pity party. According to Grandpa school should make feel better but it's not so far..

Recess
I just sat at the edge of the playground under the sun to warm up ,I was ripping the grass in pieces.
"Hey I'm really sorry,"Taylor came hugging me.
"I'm so sorry too, Taylor and I are having a sleepover Saturday if you'd like to come to get your mind off of some things,"Fallon said I nodded
"Are you still going to train?"Taylor asked about show jumping
"How can I? My Mom was my trainer,"I replied
"You can't quit now your an Olympic hopeful/contender,"Fallon said
"Come at my place whenever you want my mom can help you, remember she has the show jumping team you have to tryout for,"Taylor stated
"Thanks Tay it just may be too soon,"I replied still not looking up from ripping the grass into pieces
Lunch came quick, I grabbed my lunch but I sat at the edge of the table by myself I really don't feel like talking to anyone still.
"So the girl with the dead mom finally decided to come back to school. How was your little vacation Livy?"Weston teased aka the school bully
"Shut up Wes,"I mumbled upset
"Lay off Wes don't you have more important things to do,"Tay said shoving him to the side
"Yeah go pick on someone your own size,"I said upset with puffy red eyes he's really pushing it. Since when did I become the girl with the dead mom? I did not take any vacation for God's sake I've been grieving that's all!
"Come on Weston she's not worth your time....Anyways I heard you may not compete anymore what's the deal?mommy can't help you train for your so called talent you have in show jumping boo hop,"Victoria teased me
"That's it!leave me alone you low life brats!"I shouted standing up slamming my hands on the table ready to attack these low lives, loud enough for the whole cafeteria to hear....Uh oh.
"Olivia Fleming office now!"exclaimed my teacher Mrs. Jenkins.
"But-"I started
"No buts now go,"She exclaims I groaned picked my lunch and threw it in the trash. I wasn't hungry anyways.
"Good luck,"Whispered my friend Tay. Then off I went to the blasted office for something I didn't even do!

Office
"Listen Principal Johnson I didn't start it at all We'd and Victoria were-"I started ranting but he interrupted
"No worries Miss. Fleming you're not in trouble but I just wanted to ask and remind you if you'd like to see one of our counselors. You know losing a loved one leads to a difficulty time and one must never go alone in a situation like that,"The principal stated.
I rolled my eyes I don't need a pity party I'm tired of that!
"Thanks for the offering but I'm fine thank you,"I stated standing up grabbing my backpack ready to leave.
"Are you sure? Based on what I heard it doesn't sound like it,"The principal tried to stop me.
"Trust me I'm fine thank you,"I said walking out.
I'm tired of school it's just too much I just want to go home I don't care if I skip some of school. I walked a little to one of the exits and looked around to see if anyone could see me. 'Coast clear thank goodness,"I thought to myself. I exited the school and took the long walk home. 'Grandpa is going to kill me though'I thought to myself.
Because of that situation I have to find a way to sneak in without anyone noticing. After what seemed like forever walking I managed to walk home without anyone noticing on the way there now the challenge is for no one to catch me at home. I honestly wanted to ride Symphony take her on a trail ride that will make me feel better hopefully. I walk in the stable to find Grandpa and Ty. Ugh they noticed me
"Uh oh,"I said out loud
Yikes! I'm in big trouble.
