Wrong Number

Chapter 5

*Jessica's POV*
"I did this to save you." I say.
"How??" Nicole, my former friend but now kinda working out asked.
"Hold on... Are you still live??" Nicole asks. "No, I turned it off once I said sorry..." I say. "Okay. Now you can tell me." Nicole says.

"So remember like the first day of middle school and how you went to the bathroom for a few minutes??" I asked. "Yeah." Nicole says. "Well while you were in there..."

~|Beginning of Flashback|~
"Hey!" a random girl that came up to me exclaimed.
"Hi!" I said kindly not knowing what to do since it's my first day at middle school.
"Ummmm did I tell you if you dont join us now I can have my brother come to your little friends house and I dont know kidnap her and kill her or something." She said looking at her nails. I got scared.
"Y-y-you can??" I ask my voice shakey.
"Yeah. So you better join our group or he will." The girl said damandingly.
"Okay I'll join your group." I said still scared for Nikki.
"First thing. You can't be friends with her anymore."
"But!"
"NO BUTS!!!" the girl in the back left yelled.
"Okay." I said.
"Second step." the girl on the back right said.
"You have to bully her." the girl on the middle said.
"She's my bestfriend I can't do th-" I got cut off.
"I'll call my brother right now." the girl in the middle said.
"I'LL DO IT!!!" I yell.
"Okay. Well here she comes."
the girls walk away and Nikki comes up to me.
"Hey, you making new friends??" Nikki asks.
"Nikki I'm sorry but..." I say then I look at them and look back at Nikki.
"I CANT BE FRIENDS WITH YOU ANYMORE!!!" I yell in her face and I run away. "JESS!!!" Nikki yells behind me. I stop and turn around. "DONT CALL ME THAT ANYMORE!!!" I yell turn around and run away.
~|End of Flashback|~

"That's what happened..." I say.
"Why are you telling me this now?" Nicole asks.
"Because her brother's not alive anymore and since the girls got in trouble so many times and their moms figured out they said they were grounded for their whole life and cant step a foot near you or me anymore. And the moms made sure of that." I explain.

"Wow." Nikki says.
"I'm sorry Nikki..." I say in tears.
"Why are you crying??" Nikki asks.
"Everytime I remember that day I start to cry and think of a million ways of how I should've dealt with it." I say putting my head down so they cant see my face.

"Jess." Nikki says.
"Yes?" I ask my head still down.
"Look at me." Nikki says. I put my head up and look at the screen
"No offense but you look like a hot mess right now." Nikki says. We laugh and I wipe my tears off.
"Wanna come over???" Nikki asks.
"How about tomorrow???" I ask.
"Okay. And pack your suit case cause you know everytime we have a 'playdate' it turns into a sleepover." Nikki says giggling. I giggle.
"Okay." I say.
"Bye!!!" Nikki says.
"Bye!!!" I say and I end the call.

After I end the call I get off my bed and head to the mirror. I grab a picture of my dad and I talk to him/it.

"I wish you were here right now." I start as usual. "Me and Nikki finally became friends again!" I exclaim. "I told her why I did that. And she forgave me. I'm gonna have another playdate/sleepover with her tomorrow." I start to cry even more. "I wish you didnt have to be so far away. But I know you want to do it to keep us safe. Love you Dad. I hope I can see you again." I say.

"Well you dont have to hope anymore." I hear a voice from behind me. I turn around and drop the picture on my bed. "DAD!!!" I yell running up to him and jumping in his arms. "YOU'RE BACK!!!" I exclaim. "Thank goodness I put a little listening device that connects to my phone so I can hear what's been happening." my dad said. I look at him and smile.

"So you and Nicole made up??" he asked. "Yup!!" I exclaim. "You know what?" my dad asks. "What??" I should put a device on the picture that connects to my phone so whenever you talk to it I can talk back." my dad says. "THATS A GREAT IDEA!!!" I exclaim.

My dad may be in the Army but he can invent things that connect to his phone that keeps us safe or can help talk to each other if we're in different states.

"So you're having one of them 'playdates?'"
"Yeah."
"Well if it makes you happy. I'm happy." he says wiping a tear off my face. I smile. "I love you dad." I say.
"I love you too." he says back and we hug.

These moments are kinda rare for me. Since my dad's in the Army and all. We rarely talk because he'd be busy doing his job while I try to call him. He's a working man... He works like 24/7 kind of. But I know he's doing this so he can keep us safe. This is why I love my dad. He's a superhero and an inventor.

My mom on the other hand. She's pretty strict and we dont really get along but we do have our moments. And I love her as much as I love dad. I love them both equally.

*A/N*
