I am about to give up when the door flies open.

"What in the Sam hell are you doing girl?!"

I look up and see Zeke's father. He's standing there staring at me. His expression is angry. He's clearly intoxicated and smells of Bourbon. The drool on his shirt says I had woken him from his drunken slumber.

I have no time to talk I push passed him and ascend the staircase headed for Zeke's room.

"Zeke! Zeke please! Please!" I am yelling. Pleading that he not be gone already. Begging that he stay. That I'm on time.

I am at the top of the stairs now. Standing in front of Zeke's door I grasp the knob and I turn it.
