Chapter 1- Teen Problems

*Sasha's POV*

The sun shining through my bedroom curtain blinded my eyes. When I remembered that I was at my dad's house, all the old memories that happened in this house flashed in my mind.

I shook the thoughts out of my head and started getting ready for my day. I went to a University instead of college. I didn't stand the thought of not living at home especially after my parents' divorce.

I took a quick shower and wore my black 'obey' shirt, with my ripped skinny jeans and a white pair of Converse. And with that I headed out of the house.

*Ansel's POV*

"Ansel!", I hear my father calling.

"What now?", I exclaim sleepily.

"C'mon son you're going with me to the garage"

"Whatever. I'll get ready"

The thing is that I hate cars, but my dad is the total opposite. He wants me to be a successful car salesman. I don't want to be anything near that. I want to be a writer, but every time I tell my dad about it he replies with the same phrase: "That's not a job worth money", and I'm so sick of it. I wish he understands.

*Sasha's POV*

As days flew like birds, I was studying a lot and with concentration. But sometimes, I used to think about my parents and about the problems between them. But I just say to myself "I'm now 18 and I have my own problems."

*Sasha sighs and then fall asleep on her couch*

The next day, I woke up so tired. I was supposed to sleep in a comfortable place, but I don't know why I slept on this couch. And as usual, every morning I wake up and realize that I'm at my dad's. But I move on.

When I got to my university, I saw my two best friends, Erik and Emma waving their hands towards my direction.

"SASHA!!", they both shout causing attention from the people walking down the hall.

Erik and Emma are twins. They've been my best friends ever since our teacher put us together for a chemistry project.

As Emma and I walked to our first class since we have the same schedule, she says,

"So what have you been up to lately?"

"Nothing much. I was thinking about going to the gym this afternoon."

*Ansel's POV*

To be honest, I didn't listen to dad when he was talking to me. I was daydreaming everyday about becoming a famous writer. A brave gentle man that writes wonderful stories, but dad was convincing me to work with him at the garage. I was tired listening to his compliments that have no sense. So, I put earphones and dream about my future princess...

*Ansel approaches his dad*

"Dad?", I ask.

"What? You want to help me? Im okay with it", Harry says.

(Harry is Ansel's father, but people call him 'Mr. Elgort')

"No..", I say with a smile.

"Then what? Is anything wrong son?", Harry exclaims.

"No I'm fine, but I want to tell you that I started Gym every Wednestday"

"Oh, you mean wasting time?", Harry shouts angrily.

"Dad dont start. I want my body to be healthy because sport is a healthy hobby so please don't argue"

"First of all, you dont want to help me, second, you tell me you want to be a famous writer and now you tell me you're doing gym! Come help your father and learn how to be a great car dealer! Not a stupid writer"

"Look dad, Im gonna buy another house and im gonna live in it alone if you continue arguing with me about my life okay?" Ansel shouts back.

"Boy, pay attention on what you're saying."

I dont listen to him. I dont even answer him back. Im tired of him, so I headed home.

*Ansel arrives home and knocks the door*

"Good Morning Ansel!" Ariel says.

Ariel is my step-mom. My mom died from years because of brain cancer. So I lived with my dad and my step-mom. She's nice to me and she consider me as her son.

Kate, is my little step-sister. She's so cute and she loves me so much.

"Hello", I say.

"Why are you angry my Ansel? And why you came early today?" Ariel asks worried.

"Dad! He's always strict with me. He wants me to do everything he say, plus, he doesnt understand that Im 18 and that I have now my personal life! Im sick of it!", I cry

"Oh Ansel.. I'm sorry but your dad wants what good for you.. he wants you to be a great man because you're his only son.. you must calm down", Ariel says.

Ariel always cheers me up when im sad or angry. She always gives me advices and she always helps me in life. She's just the perfect woman...

"Well Ariel, thank you for cheering me up every time I'm sad or angry.."

"It's okay Ansel.. I'm here to help you in everything, don't worry"

And with that, I walked upstairs into my room.

*Sasha's POV*

*In the hall way, Emma asks Sasha if she can visit her Wednesday after classes, and Sasha accepts with a smile*

As I walk with Emma in the hall, I remembered that Wednesday I have gym.

"Umm.. Emma?", I ask nervously.

"Yeah?"

"Umm... do you remember when I told you that Im thinking of going to gym?", I say.

"Yeah I remember for sure! Did you write your name on the list of gym?", asks Emma.

"Actually yes... and I'm gonna do gym every Wednesday.. I'm sorry, Wednesday will be my first day and I can't visit you..", I suggest sadly.

"It's okay, you'll come another day, I dont have any problem", Emma answers.

*Sasha sighs*

"Oh great! I thought you'll be sad or you'll think that I lied to you..."

"Noo! Of course no!", explaims Emma.

"Oh okay", I smile.
