Why, Just why?

Chapter 37

I decided to take a bus back home cause I knew that I would t be able to handle walking home cause it was like 20 miles away, and besides it was really cold outside.

The bus drops me off to my house. I speed walk up to my house and quickly unlock the door and swing the door open. I walk in my house and shut the door behind me. I feel so weak right now that at any minute I could collapse on the floor.

I slowly lay down on the couch and I totally forgot my mom was still in the hospital. Should I go visit her? Wait now I can't let her see me like this.... Damn. I sigh and slowly close my eyes and instantly fall asleep.

The next day I woke up still on the couch and the sun peeking through the window as it shines in my face. I slowly open my eyes and groan when I noticed the light on my eyes. I slowly roll over and grab my phone that was sitting right by me. I check the time and it was already 1 pm. I slept that long?

I decided to clean up myself which means take a shower and get dressed and all that kinda shit when you do when you get ready for something.

I think about what should I go do. I just really want to stay home and be alone, but at the same time I don't wanna for some odd reason. I hear my stomach making weird noises. Maybe I should go eat something. I sigh as I get my coat on and walk out of the house.

I'm in town walking around trying to look for a place to get something in my system. I slowly stop walking and look up and see a sign that says Starbucks. Why not? I get in their and get a muffin and a hot chocolate and sit down in a empty seat.

I'm almost done eating then I hear someone walk in and the face looked really familiar.... I furrow my eyebrows together and take another close look at the person, but it was a guy. He had black shinny hair that was up in a little tiny quiff, he wore a leather jacket and black skinny jeans. He stars looking around and then he looks at me. That can't be who I think it is.... My ex boyfriend jake

My eyes widen and I look away. Then all the things that happened between me and him flood in my mind. The time that he almost beat me half to death, he just used me for sex, and sadly cheated on me with 3 other girls

I shut my eyes tightly and try to get rid of all things.

"Ashley?..." Someone said

I look up and see jake standing their with his eyes widen. I swallow hardly

"Y-Yeah... It's me..." I say fake smiling

A smile grew on his face as he pulled out the seat that was sitting across from me, but the faded when he saw all the bruises and cuts scattered on my face

"Uhh... W-What happened to you?" He said softly

I swallow hardly "it's nothing..." I say as I shake my head

He furrowed his eyebrows together "did someone do this to you?"

I chuckle. He is such full of bullshit why does he care?

"Why do you care?" I say harshly

"Cause Ashley.... I still care about you..." He said looking down

"Are you serious right now? Cause I remember last year you cared less about me.." I say crossing my arms

He sighed "Ashley that was last year ago.... I've changed! I'm a different person now! Trust me... I regret what I did to you and if I could go back in time and changed who I was I would..." He says sadly.

I furrow my eyebrows at him and shook my head "listen I'm not gonna sit here and kiss your ass and tell you 'its okay' or 'I forgive you' hell no!! Seriously I'm not gonna sit here and waste my time on you cause I have better stuff to do" I say getting up from my seat, pushing it in and throwing my leftover food in the garbage, and then walking out of Starbucks.
