Children of Lust or Love

Chapter 4: Finding Her

"Im sorry, you've reached the voicemail box of..Jenny Marshall. Leave a message at the tone. *beep*."

I hung up and put my phone on my night stand. I sat there and waited for her call. I looked at the clock and it was nine o'clock. Sitting and waiting, it felt like forever. So I sat there and heard the clock tick and tock. I thought to myself, maybe I should start a video diary and call it "Finding Jenny". I was at the end of my first video and my phone began to ring. I didnt look at who it was.

"Hello?"

"Eddy, its Jamie."

I pulled the phone away from my ear and looked at the phone and thought to myself, 'What?' I cant be!

"Who?"

"Its Jamie. Your best friend."

"Holy shit! No way. What are you here to tell me?"

"You better not give up on finding her. She still thinks of you too. You love her, Eddy. Dont run from it anymore. Go find her!"

I shook my head and said, "Yes, sir!" I saluted him.

I packed up my stuff, grabbed the car keys, my licenses, and the car. I had 50 dollars, my credit card from 16th birthday, my recent paycheck I havent cashed in, and a coupon from Pizza Montese. Was this enough to get me to Florida? How am I going to make to her and I feel as if Im going to end up broke before I get there. I will look like a bum. But I picked out my one nice suit that I got from Christmas when I was 15. I stopped at Sheetz to get gas in the car and I got a phone call.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Eddy. Its Jamie again."

"Yes?'

"I just wanted to say that shes getting ready to call you and Im proud that you're going to find her."

Then he hung up on me. I started to question my life and should I be doing this?
