"No you're not. Dude stop lying." Britney spoke. I literally have tears streaming down my face. They're usually the people who know when I'm lying. I guess not anymore.
"Does it look like I'm lying? I literally have makeup running down my face." I told them while wiping my face off. They just stare at me with a blank face.
"You can't leave! you came here only two years ago, and now you're moving again?" Zoe asked while tears fell from eye glossy eyes.
"I know and I'm sorry Lucy and I came home to find that mom had already packed up the living room and kitchen. Right when we came in the door she handed us boxes and shoved us in our rooms too pack. She didn't tell us why or where and it's really bothering me."
"But what are we going to do?"
"I don't want our friendship to be ruined!
"How are we going to see each other?"
All these questions came at me all at once and all I could do was yell.
"Oh my god! please! calm down! I don't need this right now all I know is that we're moving and nothing else. We can Skype or text everyday if you want, and I know that one day we will all be together again. I'm sorry but I have to go and pack. I think we're leaving soon. My mom is rushing." I told them.
My mind is rushing so fast right now I can't think straight. I decided to go down stairs and get a drink. I made my way to the kitchen and remembered that it was all packed so I tried to look for the box that's said 'Cups' on it. Just my luck, I could'nt find it. Great.
I heard a loud scream come from the bathroom and then some tiny sobs. It sounded like my mother. I ran straight to the bathroom.
"Mom?!"....... "Mom!!" I yelled she wasn't answering me. I knocked on the door and heard her start crying again. I opened the door.
"MOM! What happened!" I asked her very worriedly. There was glass all over the floor.
"I'm just trying to get stuffed packed okay?! Now please go and pack up your room. We're leaving tomorrow" She spoke to me after I helped her up of the floor. I just stood there dumbfounded.
"I'll pack only if you tell me whats going on!" I yelled at her. This was getting very aggravating not know whats happening.
"YOUR FATHER'S BACK IN TOWN, NOW PLEASE GO PACK!" She yelled right back at me. I don't think she was suppose to say that because as soon as she finished she covered her mouth and her eyes went wide. What? No.....
"YOU TOLD ME THAT HE WAS DEAD!" I yelled at her in disbelief.
"I JUST WANTED TO PROTECT YOU AND LUCY!" She spoke. Her eyes are so bloodshot that it looks like she been crying for more than just ten minutes.
"MY WHOLE LIFE YOU TOLD US THAT HE DIED IN THE WAR BEFORE I WAS EVEN BORN! MY WHOLE LIFE YOU MADE ME BELIEVE THAT I HAD NO DAD! I COULD'VE BEEN GOING TO ALL THE FATHER DAUGHTER DANCES AND HE COULD'VE KISSED ME TO BED WHEN I HAD NIGHTMARES! I GOT NONE OF THAT! NO EVEN FROM YOU!" I pretty much screamed right in front of her face, but at this point, I don't really care. I ran upstairs and slammed the door shut. I slid down my door and started crying really hard. After about like twenty minutes I stood up started packing all my stuff and before I knew it I was done. I had to get out of this house.
I walked over to Lucy's room and walked in without knocking. She was on her bed listening to music while on her phone. I looked around the room and noticed everything was packed. I don't think she heard my fight with mom. She deserves to know the truth.
"Hey, what's up?" Lucy greeted me taking me out of my thoughts.
I looked on her side table and saw a picture of our father. My eyes started to water again.
"Willow? Are you okay?" She asked me very concerned. I quickly wiped away my tears.
'I-I'm f-fine. I'm just gonna go out okay?" I told her. She just nodded. I hate keeping things from her, but I can't tell her right now.
I left her room and grabbed my key about to walk out the door.
"Where do you think you're going?" Of course. My mother.
"Anywhere but here." I told her. God can she just stop talking already?!"
"No you're not! You still need to pack!" She said. Oh my god.
"I already did!" I yelled at her. She obviously deserves to be yelled at. I slammed the door shut. I walked to my car and drove to somewhere quite. I honestly had no clue as to where I was headed. I don't know how but I ended up at a beach about a half hour from my house. I got out of my car and regretted that decision because it was so cold. Lucky me I have a sweatshirt in my car. I put on my sweatshirt and headed down. I was walking for a while then decided to sit down because I was tired of walking.
I can't believe she was keeping something so big hidden from us. My childhood sucked as a child. My mother was always out with her friends or at work. Never home with her daughters who need her at the time. I've always wondered what it would be like having a dad. The only closet thing to a father I had was Britney's dad.
"Hey." I heard Marcus say. He was walking towards me smiling.
"Oh hey." I spoke back I really didn't want to talk to anyone at the moment.
"What are you doing here? It's past nine?" He asked
"I could ask the same about you." I laughed a little.
"Well I just came for a walk, I've been stressed all day. You know new house, new school, new friends." He said bumping my shoulder while he spoke.
"Yeah I'm gonna feel the same way pretty soon."
"What are you talking about?"
"I'm moving tomorrow. Apparently my father who I thought died in the war is alive and is back. That's why I'm here right now. She lied to both me and my little sister saying he was dead, and just now told me he wasn't. I just needed to get out of my house.
"Oh wow. That's terrible. But why are you moving? don't you want to see him? He asked looking out into the water.
"Of course I do, but I've never even met him."
"Well this could be your time then." He said smiling. I just looked over at him. He kind of looks like me actually. Brown hair, Freckle, and blue green eyes.
"You look familiar too, have I met you before and just don't remember?" I asked laughing to myself. He look down at me with confusion covering his face.
"What?" I asked. He was staring at me again.
'I don't know but I feel like we've seen each other before." He spoke taking his gaze back to the water in front of us.
"Well anyway, I should get going. I am moving tomorrow. Yay." I said getting up and walking back up to my car.
"Wait!"
"What?" I asked and turned to face him. Before I knew it I got pulled into the biggest hug anyone can ever give. I hugged back. He smelt good. I know call me weird but I don't really care.
"I just wanted to give you a hug cause I won't be seeing you for a while." He said backing up and going to his own car.
Great just another friend I have to leave.
