On My Own A Diggy Simmons Love Story Book 3

Chapter 66: Little One

Woman P.O.V

The bus ride was long and boring. Little one slept through it all. I can tell she was tired. We arrived at our destination and I shook her awake. She frantically got up and grabbed my things. She rushed me off the bus into the night air.

Woman: Where do we sleep?

Little one: No worries I have a place.

Woman: What if he comes back for me.

Little one: He won't. He doesn't know you're gone.

Woman: True

Little one: Come on we have a long walk to get to where we need to go.

Justine P.O.V

I rested the investigation for a while so we can grieve in peace. I still think she's alive even though my mind says no. But I have this gut feeling that reassures me that she is out there. I left the house open just incase she comes back even though I know she won't. I closed my eyes and drifted back to sleep. The next morning Diggy called and told us he was coming home in a few days. He seemed like he had been crying. Out of all of us, Diggy has the most hurt. Iris came down and started eating a pop tart.

Iris: Can we go somewhere today?

Justine: Sure where?

Iris: Anywhere.

Justine: You need a happy thought. You look like you had been crying for days and days. Is everything okay?

Iris: Yes...

Justine: I hated when Elana did that. She always tried to cover up her feelings just so we didn't have to worry. But I saw through it. I can see through you too so you might as well tell me. 

Iris: alright *starts explaining*

Tristen P.O.V

I sat on the porch of my cousin's house and drank some lemonade. I watch the sun glisten down on the grasses and plants. My cousin was a nature girl. She loved rocks and trees. She was in the kitchen peeling potatoes and chopping carrots to put into our stew that we were eating for lunch. The smell of it tickled my nose. I got a text message from Diggy

JetsetterGeneral: Man I got used

TristenLovesyou: How?

JetsetterGeneral: It's a long story but I followed the unknown directions and it got me no where with Elana.

TristenLovesyou: Sorry that happened. When you coming back to New Jersey?

JetsetterGeneral: In a few days. What about you?

TristenLovesyou: I'm thinking about staying out here. Iris and I aren't really friends. Elana is dead. You're still mourning over the death and Twist is in Miami still. There is no need for me to be there.

JetsetterGeneral: But I still think you're cool. I'm coming to visit then if you stay in North Carolina. 

TristenLovesyou: Come right ahead then! I don't mind you visiting. I have to go my stew is ready. Hunger is calling

JetsetterGeneral: Okay fatty; go eat. I'll talk to you later.

Talking to Daniel was pretty cool. He wasn't even upset at me anymore. I plan on being friends with Daniel for a long time because he resembles Elana in so many ways
