"Sweetie I'm sorry..I just- I didn't know how to tell you" she says sincerely.
I get up and open my door with tears in my eyes.
"Mom you lied to me for years..just like Caden did. And now I've lost him." I say "because I thought he was the only one that knew. I had decided not to be his friend because I knew every time I saw him I would see my best friend that lied to me for years" I say
"Carter I-''
"And then Jackson comes and tells me that you knew too" I sigh "I've gone through so much Mom. When dad died you didn't care..you just cried because you knew that's what I wanted to see because of you didn't I would know something" I say
"Carter I know I've should've told you..well we should've you but..I didn't want to Ruin your childhood."
"But now I know my childhood was lie..every single fucking thing was A LIE" I say sobbing.
"Carter I'm sorry" she says with tears in her eyes.
I shake my head "you lied Mom"
"I-I actually need to pack because I'm leaving again tomorrow for a meeting in New York" she says
"Wow..now I know who cares" I say and close my door before she could speck again.
I laid down on my bed. Why? I mean why me. My mom, my dad, my best friend. I've lost every single one of them. How could my own mother Lie to me for so many years I just don't understand. I get up and walk over to my mothers room.
"You can't leave" I say
"What?"
"Mom if you leave..I won't be here and I will never come back." I say and wipe my tears.
"Sweetie But I need to go" she says
"Wow I can't believe your picking your job over me" I say with my watery eyes
"Carter-''
"Don't..Goodbye Mom" I says and close her door. And walk back into my room.
Via phone call
"Jackson can I stay with you for a few days?" I ask
"Yes of course" he says
"Ok I'll be over in a bit"
I grab my backpack and grab and ton of clothes including my toothbrush, my hair brush, and some makeup. Then I head downstairs.
"Carter" I see my mom in the kitchen with red eyes. "Where are you going?"
"I'm going to Arias for a few..." I say
"Carter I'm still mother. And if say you can't leave you can't leave" she says
"Fine..I'll just leave until you go with your man to New York" my moms eyes go wide.
"Do you actually think I believe your doing work over there." I say
"How'd you find out?"
"Your boss called and ask where you were..I said on that trip you sent her on..and he was like which one..and I was like the one to New York and you know what he said they never sent an employe to New York." I can't see a tear slide down her cheek.
"Honey..I wanted to-'' I cut her off
"You wanted to tell me "But Oh Sweetie I just needed know how to tell you" just like you didn't know how to tell me that you and dad didn't give a fuck about each other." I say
"I'm sorry" she says
"Me too mom me too" I say and walk out.
I quickly make my way to Jackson house.
"Carter you ok?"' Jackson ask. I was currently sitting in his bed just looking around and thinking.
"Do you think my parents ever loved me?" I ask
"What Of cor-'' I cut him off
"Do you think that's the reason my parents stop loving each and other?"
"Carter.."
"Jackson..My whole childhood was as a lie..I thought my parents loved each other but I was wrong...I thought I had a best friend that would never lie to me..but I was wrong..everything in my life sucks.." I say
"Carter stop beating your self us for this...Yes Caden messed up and see you parents messed but but goddammit Carter you still have me..your life Will work itself out you just need to give it time ok" he says
"Ok" I say in a soft tone.
