Tara's POV
"Okay, were do you wan to go?", Maia asks. I shrug. "I don't really know, to be honest.", I say to her shrugging. She nods and suggests some new fancy restaurant about twenty minutes from here. I nod and try to smile but I can't.
I don't smile that much, actually. If I do, it's probably a fake smile. "Okay, get In the car and we'll go to the new restaurant.", she informs, I go walk outside to the car. I open the door to the passenger seat and sit down and close the door.
Once I sit down, I feel a vibrate in my pocket. I pull out my phone and unlock it to find someone had texted me. I also realize I didn't have the number in my contacts.
Messaging
Unknown- Hey, it's Ross:)
Tara- Oh, hey
Ross- So, whatcha doin?
Tara- I'm waiting for Maia in the car.
Ross- ?
Tara- My stepmom
Ross- Oh, sorry.
Tara- That's okay, what are you doing?
Ross- Doing homework:(
Tara- Oh, sounds fun
Ross- Not really.
Tara- :-) gtg Maia is coming. See you tomorrow.
Ross- Okay, see ya.
I put my phone away and stared straight ahead at the garage while Maia came in the car. "Okay, so let me figure out how to get there first.", Maia says digging in her purse for her phone. I nod and play with my fingers.
At the restaurant
I looked around the unfamiliar restaurant, it wasn't that bad, actually. Maia was asking for a table while I stood next to her looking around the new restaurant.
"Right this way", the lady working here said. Maia and I followed her and she then seated us at a booth by a window. Maia said thank you and sat down across from me.
"So, anything new?", Maia asks trying to start a conversation. "I met a boy today.", I answer looking at her. She smiles widely. "That's great, Tara! What's his name?", she questions eagerly.
"Ross" "Oh, that's a neat name, is he cute?", she asks. "Maia!", I whine. "Okay okay! I won't ask anymore", she says opening her restaurant menu. "Okay good.", I sigh. "What do you want to eat?", Maia asks.
"Probably chicken and to drink.... Water", I say looking at the menu. "I want spaghetti and water also to drink.", she tells me. "Okay.", I sigh.
"Maia, can you please excuse me? I need to go to the bathroom.", I explain getting up from the booth. "Ya sure sweetie.", Maia answers. I walk fast to the bathroom and go in a stall and then sit on the ground and burry my head in between my knees and start to sob a little. I can't help it, I really miss my family.
