Tonight We'll Be Together

Tears and Suitcases

For a split second I had several scenarios in my head about why she was holding a suitcase. I shook my head, 'What on Earth are you doing with that?!', I said pointing to the suitcase. Her mouth was moving but no sound was coming out. She finally took a deep breath and looked me in the eyes, 'I'm going away for a bit, only for a few days. Nick has asked me to come with him to wales whilst he checks up on his mother as she is ill'. I couldn't believe a word I was hearing. I stormed past her and went into her bedroom. I opened the wardrobe and grabbed a handful of clothes. Chucking them at her I yelled, 'Here, pack all of these whilst your at it. Get out of here! Go on, some guy you've just met is obviously more important than your own daughter!'.

I then marched to my room and slammed the door. I collapsed on the bed for the second time that day and cried my eyes out. My mom was making a lot of noise rushing up and down the stairs. I didn't care though, all I wanted at that moment was some time to myself. As I buried my head into my pillow, I shut my eyes and starting thinking again. What is this Nick guy even like? What if he did bad things to her? Can she trust him? Can she trust herself? What if she never comes home? I violently shot up at the image, floating around in my head like dandelion fluff, of her battered, bruised and stone cold dead body lying on the ground in the middle of nowhere.

I took my phone out of my bag and looked at the time. It was nearly seven in the evening and my stomach started rumbling so I decided to go downstairs and make myself some dinner. I came to a halt at the bottom of the stairs where Mom was standing with her suitcase, bag and denim jacket on. A tear streamed down my cheek but then I wiped it away. She put her arms around me and hugged me tight, 'I will be back soon and I will text you. I promise'. I gave her a quick hug back and nodded. She opened the front door, got into her car and drove away. I sighed heavily as I went into the kitchen to make myself some food. I had the house to myself for a few days. Hmm... Maybe I could do with having some friends around. I smirked to myself and after eating I grabbed my phone and made a very important call.
