Alex's P.O.V 

I came back home after running up one billion steps, I should've taken the elevator but my finger was too lazy to press the button, and I was tired, the only reason I was still standing was because of the energy of Lisi's kiss. I know it sounds corny but.. it felt like a spark building up in my body and letting out fireworkd, man I sound weird. I staggered inside to meet my mother eyes as she sat stiffly on the new leather couch, she smiled at me a little but looked troubled, 

"Hello mom," I said cautiosly, she never spoke to me, 

"Hello Alex, did you have a good time?" she asked tightly, her eyes watered, 

"Yes Mom," I staggered to my room and left her there, oh well. 

My room was actually plain, I didn't take enough time to unpack my stuff and the cream walls were bare of anything, my bed was a King's size but the black and green sheets need washing. I noticed my throat was dry and ran to get some water and heard sobs coming from the living room, I saw my mom crying in her hands, it sounded so hear-broken it touched my heart. No, she's not a good a mom but she's my mom, and like, don't all children love their moms? I ran over to her and put my arm around her.

"Mom, what happened?" I promped, It better not be Oreo. She shook her head, 

"C'mon mom, I'll help you, tell me," I pleaded giving her the seal eyes, she sobbed into my shoulder, 

"Your-" her voice kept on htching up, "Father- I-Is-Ch-Cheating-O-On m-m-m-m-me, "  she stuttered, I looked at her, 

"You really love him don't you mom?" she nodded, sobbing, I patted her back

"He was a good man then until-" she stopped as Dad came through the door, he stank up the place with alchohol and the sent of lavendor perfume, he didn't even look over to mom, I felt nger surge up inside me and was about shout when my mom shook her head, her shoulders rocking around lwith the sobs, 

"Don't. not yet," she whispered and got up, she smiled weakly and patted my cheek, for a minute she looked just like Oreo utnil her sad look came back on ands she headed over to her and Dad's bedroom,  I wonder how long she knew because it was news to me.. but it does explain my Dad and his weird smelling clothes. But I remember when I was 13 I used to see her sobbing in the bathroom infront of the mirror and when I was 9 she always used to put her head down when she thought she was alone. I know she might sound stupid for staying ith Dad all this time, but I realize now she loves him with all her heart and she's also strong too, very strong. I smiled and changed itno pajamas, time for sleeping time.

Sunday 12:05

I parked my bicycle at the McDonald's parking lot and entered. After waiting hungrily for my lunch I finally got to the front of the night, and forgot what I was ordering, 

"I'll just take a. um Happy Meal small, with Coke," The girl at the counter didn't look up at me 'till she gave me the bill, and it was a knock down. Samantha, what is she doing in NYC??!!! 

"Alex?" she asked, her blue eyes widening, "I thought you moved to Housten!!" she said,her mouth agape her blond hair frizzy, 

"I thoughtu stayed..." I said,

"No, I have family here, Mom and Dad kicked me out," she smiled at me.

To all of you who are probably thinking: OMG, who is this bitch ruining up Alex's and Lisi's love life, OMG why is she here? Go bac to where u belong ho. But Samantha wouldn't do that, she's just my friend after all, I don't think anything more than that. 

Prople behind me started figiting, 

"Here," she said, shouving a slip of pper into my hands, "That's my number,call me at 5," I took my meal and left still staring at the slip of papers, well it's nice to see her again.
