School was the next day. I got dressed and headed downstairs. My dad and stepmom weren't here so I roamed around freely. I called Mason to come and pick me up. I did not feel like driving today.
"Hola, poco lenta," he smiled, clearing off the passsnger seat for me.
"Hi," I replied. He drove off.
Amazingly, Aaron never came up in our conversation, which he did alot latley.
I was laughing alot more. It had been a week since Aaron and I's altercation. He hasn't made an effort to talk to me at all. I haven't either. I honestly didn't care at all. I thought I was handling it very well.

"Hey guys," Lena greeted, parting in between me and Mason as we walked the halls.
"What's up?" Mason and I asked in unison
"So, the papers were just settled. I'm staying with my dad," she put on a brave face. Her eyes looked puffy as if she had been crying.
"Oh, Lena," I embraced her in a hug. I felt Mason's warm body wrap around us.
"You are so brave," Mason praised as he broke apart the hug. Lena nodded.
Lena and I went our seperate way from Mason as we headed into the first lecture.

"I want to throw a party," I blurted while in Mason's car. We had just gotten out of school.
"What?Why?" He asked in complete and utter and confusion.
"Mija, the last time you threw a party-"
"I'm tired of being sad. And mad. And angry. And depressed. I don't want to be hung up and moping all the time. It's been 9 months now,"
"Okay," He replied.
"Okay then,"
We rode in silence for awhile.
"So what kind of party are you thinking?" Mason asked in excitement. I laughed as we pulled into my drive way.

I opened the door to my house and walked in. 10 seconds later I was bombarded with by my dad's weight and luggage.
"What the hell?!" I yell.
He pushed past me and walked out of the house. Chrissa was left standing there.
"What happened?" I asked, my tone softening. Tears weld up in her eyes.
She turned around and went back into her room.
"Okay then," I said to myself and headed upstairs.
I changed into more comfortbal clothes and layed in bed staring up at the ceiling. I grabbed my phone out of boredom.
