BLIND

Chapter 2

Weeks have passed since me and Joy met. We ended up exchanging numbers a week later after the whole Calvin thing. We texted a lot actually. During class, outside of class, in the morning, at night. She was pretty dope and funny. Oh and the games we played. We had this question game going. She would ask me a question and I would answer and vice versa. She kept me on my toes with the questions she asked me. One time she asked me for 1 million dollers if i would drink someone else piss. Gross right but hey it entertained me. 

It was Wednesday morning and me and my best friend Karen decided to skip school and drink. We've skipped before and it was like nothing but today didn't seem right. I told her that but she just brushed it off and told me everything was going to be fine. Oh well I guess she's right. I met her up at the bus stop and she told me that her boyfriend (Eric) and my brother (Marcus) were ready at his house. Oh I forgot to mention she was dating my brothers bestfriend lol. Since my brothers bestfriend was 22 he could buy alcohol for us.

Karen was going off on how hype she is to getting drunk. Me not so much, I drank a lot so I was over the whole getting drunk is so exciting faze. We walked to her Eric's house, it was only like a 15 minute walk from where she lived. The whole time she was on the phone with him. Its not like we were littarlly on our way to see him. 

When we got there the guys were outside waiting for us. My brother smiled and hugged me and Karen. We walked in the guys bought us food. Mcdonalds, there was pancakes and orange juice. Yummy, that orange juice is going to make a good chaser. They were smart enough to buy the large.

"Okay first thing first. We have to call the school that we are sick or some shit," Karen started saying, "They call my mom if im not in school. So I need to call." she grabbed the phone and dialed the schools absentee number. 

"Hi This is Melinda Olivares and im calling on the behalf of my daughter, Karen Olivares. She seems to have a high fever and wont be able to attend school today. If you have any questions you can call back at this number." She said the whole thing with a smile on her face. Knowing she was going to get away with it. She hung up and handed me the phone. "Your next." 

I grabbed the phone and said the same thing. We had it all to well rehearsed. At least I did, i've done it before and never got caught. When I was done we went to the dining table sat down to eat and talk. The pancakes were so good I was pratically scarfing them down my throat. Karen started to drink a few shots of sky vodka. It was one of our personal favorites. Once I was done eating I decided to join in on the fun. I had a few shots nothing to bad, the orange juice really helped soothe the burning in my throat. Next thing I knew I was dancing in the den while Karen ran off with Eric to his bedroom. So there I was by myself while some spanish pop music played in the background.

"Your such a dork," my brother chuckled," You look like an idiot twirling around."

"Shut up asshole, your just jealous of my moves ya bitch."

"Im not a bitch and im not jealous of you." he stuck his tounge out at me....oh yeah he is jealous. Next thing i knew he started to bust out his moves and i was on the floor laughing my ass off.

"And you make fun of me dancing, but your overthere looking like a complete dickwad." i managed to say through all my laughing. Damn the shots were getting to me. I started to feel sick. 

"Woah!! Are you okay? You look sick El..." Marcus said.

"Yeah. I just got really dizzy. I need to lay down." As I said that I walked towards the bedroom next to Erics' it was his brothers room.

Eric had twin brothers Kyle and Kalvin. They were identical twins, the only way I could tell them apart was that one had a small beard growing (Kalvin). I got a long with Kyle a little bit more, we didnt talk as much but he was the more chill cool one. Kalvin was cocky and a player. I never met one girl who didnt swoon over him. Both boys were cute though with their manbuns and athletic bodys. What girl wouldn't want them? lol me! 

Anyway, I layed down in Kyles' room. It looked like the boy room. TV, Xbox, twin bed, posters, and to tie it all together the room was blue. Ha what a basic bitch. 

I laid for what seemed like 15 minutes when Karen came barging in the room.

"El!! WE HAVE TO GO NOW! The school called my mom and she knows we aren't in school!" she yelled. Her face was pale with fear. I jumped and grabbed my stuff. 

"Dude you have to leave right now", Marcus said,"If her mom finds out Eric and I can get arrested for giving you alcohol." I know how that sounds. You would think why im not gonna get in trouble. Well you see my parents wouldnt really give two shits what i do. Yeah i know im not the best influence ever but whatever only god can judge me. 

"Karen grab your stuff. were gonna have to go out through the back door" i said. she listened and got her stuff. we went towards the back door and around the house. I peaked around the corner when i saw her moms car drivning by. fuck! i pushed Karen against the corner of the house and told her to sush.

"KAREN!! WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU? I KNOW YOUR HERE!" her mom yelled out. i looked at karen and told her to stay quiet. lucky for us she only drove by for a few minutes and left. 

I led us away from the guys and walked towards walmart. we went in and walked through the isles and karen was freaking out i told her to chill that it was gonna be okay.

We walked down the toy isle and guess who we saw...yup you guessed it her mom. Bruh how did she even find us. she looked at us and let me tell you this bitch looked pissed. oh did i tell you im not much of a fan of her. She was a bitch. Well honestly she was just being a mom. you know somewhat im kind of jealuse of Karen becuase her mom cared so much. My parents would have just been like, oh if you didnt want to go to school so bad just drop out. i pushed myself because i have a older sister who would beat my ass if i didnt graduate. plus i had little nieces and nephews who kinda looked up to me. so it felt like my responsablity to finish.

Karens mom walked straight up to us and grabbed her,"Lets go now. im taking your ass back home and we are gonna have a long talk about this shit you just did." she looked at me and scowled, "Do your parents know that you ditched school too?" i looked at her and knodded.

"yeah i just called them and they are picking me up right now." i said with a straight face. I knew she knew i was lying she wasnt having it i could tell in her face.

"i dont believe you. lets go ima drop you off at your house and see if your parents are home" 

"okay" was all i could say i was still a little tipsy and i wasnt in the mood to banter with this lady.

she ended up droping me off home and my brother was there with eric on the couch. i sat right in between them and we all just looked at eachother and busted out laughing. yeah it was bad but i never said i was a good girl. we ended up finishing the bottle before my parents came home from work. i laid on my bed drunk as hell listening to The Weeknd till i drifted off to a blissful sleep.
