Heavens Gate; Jack Avery

five

- this takes place in the second semester -

Today was the first day of the second semester. I really don't want to go.

I put my black oversised thrasher hoodie with white leggings and head over to school.

The tardy bell rang and I was just walking with Julia. 

"Okay so I have a surprise for you."

I nodded my head slowly showing her that I was confused.

"Close your eyes and turn around"

I did what I was told.

"Turn around."

I did so and I saw the heartbreaker himself. Jack Avery.
He was walking towards me and I felt trapped. I didn't know what to do.

I realized I was in the courtyard I could go left, back, or right. I went to the right because that's were my class was.

I ran to class dissapointed.

I knocked on the door real hard. I wanted to go in. The teacher let me in and all I could hear is ughs and ews. Anna wasnt here so I sat by myself.

I plugged my earphones in and blast the music half way. I felt peace for the past 20 minuets.  Class ends in 25 more minuets.

Just then I heard the door knock. I paused my music and made it seem as if I was still listening.

"Jack!" the class yelled in excitement. I forgot he has 1st and 7th with me.

He walked passed me looking at me but I didn't return the look.

*RING*

"I have to take this" I said. It was my mom. She would always call me when there's an emergency.

"Mom" I said.

"Sweety. Uncle Troy died."

My heart dropped and those words. Uncle troy was more of a dad to me than my actual dad. He was the beat uncle ever.

She told me she was at Memorial Herman.

I hung up with tears in my eyes and walked in. I sat down waiting so I can get called to the office and leave early.

That didn't happen.

It was time for 7th period. And I sat down on my chair. I was thinking about Uncle Troy and how much I miss him. I was crying like crazy.

"Amora" I turned to Jacks direction.

"I am so sorry for your loss" he hugged me. I was breaking down and swimming in a puddle of tears.

I didn't care if I was mad at him. All I needed was a hug. I don't care from who but that's all I want. A hug.

I got sent outside the classroom to breath but I just went outside in the t-buildings.

I took time to think. The bell to go home rang.

I got home. We plan the funeral this Saturday.

This chapter is dedicated to my uncle Fredy. Thank you for sending me love and helping me with everything.  I wish you were still here. Rest easy uncle 💔
