You Let Me Go

6. Just A Stranger

-Next Morning (Sunday)-

I woke up by my phone ringing. I was called to go to the deans as soon as I could. I really don't want to re-live last night. I asked Gabby if she could come with me. I don't want to do this alone.

"He has been expelled and is behind bars. It is up to you whether you would like to file for a restraining order.. I don't know how long he'll remain in jail." Fuck yeah I do. So then we travelled to the station to file for a restraining order.

Then I was called into the Alpha house where I got sympathy from the girls and an alumni as well. She offered therapy as she's a psychologist. Obviously at no charge since I am a sister now. I actually did decide to take her up for a session so I could vent to her. About everything not just last nights incident.

I called my dad and had to let him know. He said they would fly out here first thing Friday morning.

-Friday-

Yesterday I had my appointment with Stacie Keller, the alumni psychologist. It honestly felt good letting everything out.

Its 3pm and my dad texted me saying they were downstairs. I ran down there and picked up Madi first then hugged my dad and Beth.

I held her the entire time. "This is Gabby, Gabby this is my dad Michael and my step mom Elizabeth."

I let them in on the incident and he obviously grew extremely pissed. "So how are you and Theo?" He asked when he calmed down. "I don't want anything to do with him."

"Lia.." "No dad." He sighed. "The Archibald's are still a huge part of our lives-"

"I know they are. I told Alice everything already. But Theo means nothing to me anymore. As far as I know, he's just a stranger to me." He sighed.

I showed them around campus and then we had dinner. I went back with them to their hotel until it started to get late.
