My Other Half✔️

Chapter 8

I dont hate but I dont love September, I just feel it's boring. I mean the months that follow it's halloween, thanks giving, christmas, new years. But September is just boring and it feels so long of a month.

But I am telling you it was eventful but not in a good way.

In school everything was great at least. But then at home... My great gandmother had passed away a few days ago and mom was sad, I mean of course who wouldn't be sad if their grandma dies. So mom wanted to go and be there with her family, but I had school and I had to stay and mom wasn't feeling safe leaving me here since dad was always coming late.

So they fought for two days about it. And finally concluded my mom was leaving to go back to North Carolina and if my dad doesn't take care of me she will just get a divorce and he will have to leave the house and he will also root in hell. All of that I was hearing from my room as they fought.

And now was the day after mom had left, dad was sleeping which I should be doing but I couldn't. I had my bedroom light on and was reading a book, when I heard tapping from my window. I went over to open up for Louis. He has been making me company this days. He says a lady shouldn't be crying so much, and worse alone. At first it helped me because I had my attention on making mean remarks instead of thinking about my parents. Then one night I felt bad for being so mean, it made me cried. And he hugged me and told me I could be as mean as I wanted just so I wouldn't be sad. But I changed and now it was just talking about stuff. None of my parents knew Louis has been in my room this days they would have freak out if they knew. But as if something would have happened, I mean they know I am not looking to date anyone.

"Did your mom leave yet? " Louis asked sitting down in my desk chair that had wheels. He usually plays with it. I told him he was going to throw up and then he stops.

"Yeah she did. Dad and I took her to the airport." I said sadly. Today was Saturday so it was nice I didn't have school tomorrow.

"I am sorry about your great grandmother. And I am so sorry that you are having to go through all of this."

"Louis how many times have I told you that it isn't your fault."

"Not enough. I wish we could just leave and go for some icecream."

"Yes we should."

"For real? You wanna go? "

"Yes! Lets go to your room and then to your car." I said thinking about it. Then he went before me and showed me how to get to his room. It wasn't hard at all.

We went to the first ice cream place we saw opened at 11pm.

"I wish it was mango ice cream... But I like this one too."

"I like you too." I made a confused face. "I mean, I like it too." I made a warning face, because I had already told him, we can never date. And I don't even think he likes me. As a friend maybe but I am so mean to him.

"What is happening in that car??" Louis said pointing at a car parked a infront of us but far enough. It was moving back and forth. I laughed and he laughed. And we couldn't stop laughing as I told him to drive.

"Do you want to go back home?" he said after we could talk without laughing.

"Yeah, we should." he smiled and then he took my hand in his which I took my out immediately. Then we just drove in silence.

We got back home and before I went back to my room i told him he couldn't come to my bedroom anymore, anyone could see us and we could get in trouble. Which was partly the truth but it was also what happened while we were in the car.
