i went to the bathroom trying to get pie crust out of my hair. i checked my phone and realized daniel hasn't been responding to my messages.
"he's probably busy." i thought.
i continued baking with my mom, not gonna lie i actually had fun. but don't tell her that. we made 3 pumpkin pies, 3 apple, and 2 banana creme. i'm actually really upset i have to wait a whole day to eat them..

*DANIEL CALLING...*

"hey babe"
"hey bree, you got a sec to talk?" he asked.
"what's up? is everything okay?"
"i'm so sorry but i can't go with you tomorrow"
"oh, how come?"
"um- my dad, he uh said i couldn't"
"oh well, i'm so-"

*END CALL*

"okay, well bye then" i thought after he hung up.

great. now i have to go without him.. whatever it's okay, i understand he has to respect his dad. i just feel like we've been distant and i was really looking forward to spending the holiday with him.
i told my mom that daniel wasn't coming, and she had this weird look on her face.
"b, it seems like he's blowing you off"
"mom, you're crazy. his dad said he couldn't go"
"i thought his dad was in london working?" she asked.
"yeah he is bu-"
"then why would he care if daniel came with us?" my mom interrupted.
damn.. old lady had a point. i couldn't answer that. because i didn't know the answer. daniel would never blow me off. and his dad IS in london, so why would he care? something felt off, but i didn't know what..
