Roommates

part 48

i skim through the journal just to see i have a few pages left. my dads called me a few times and told me to come back home because it's getting late and we have guest coming over tonight

my dad loves having people over for dinner. my dad is a people's person, he gets a long well with a lot of people

i told him that i'll come home when i feel like it even though i am really hungry. i've been out for a couple of hours now

the park reminds me of so much when i was a kid. seeing parents play with their kid in the sand or push them on the swing makes me wonder if i'll ever have a kid of my own

i look at the journal and debate for a few minutes if i want to continue reading it.

my dads waiting for me anyway, i should start heading back now. i get in my car and start to drive home

i'm still bra less and i hope the guest don't seem to notice. plus i have to go to WSC to get the rest of my stuff and thank God my dad got me a car so i can just shove everything in here

i park the car in the lot and realize that our guest aren't here it, since their cars aren't around.

i quickly walk to the front door and turn the knob, the smell of mash potatoes and chicken instantly hits me

"kels! you're finally here i made food" my dad smiles at me

"yea, i have to get dressed before the guest come" i tell him and he laughs

"they are already here" he whispers and i see lily walk into the kitchen, joey behind her

i gasp and they both look at me, i hide the journal behind my back and look at my dad

"dad!" i whisper, "you didn't tell me they were coming?"

"go wear something nice" he pats my back before walking away

i quickly go into my room and hide the journal. i walk into my closet and take off my clothes and put on some jeans and a light blue sweater

of course their cars wouldn't be parked outside because they are literally my neighbors. i wouldn't mind if it was just lily and jacob but the fact that joey is here.... joey!?

out of all people it had to be him and i just know my dad purposely would do something like this

it's bugging me so much because i want to avoid him at all cost. you would think the journal would've changed my mind but it didn't... not really.

i have mixed emotions for joey, i still don't know if i can believe everything written on that. why wouldn't he just tell me he was in an open relationship

did he ever cheat on me? why did he go back to lily? was there something wrong with me?

finish the journal to find out, duh. my subconscious tells me and i roll my eyes

i quickly clean up my room and fix my hair before heading out into hell

i walk into the kitchen to seem busy, "can i help you cynthia?" i ask her

"no darling it's okay!" she says

"no please i want to help you, you look really busy right now" i tell her

"i'm fine love" she smiles

"please" i blurt, i just need to do something.
she nods slowly, "okay then, would you mind setting the table?"

i grab the plates and walk towards the table, dinner... with lily's parents.... my dad and cynthia.... and joey.

this just has to possibly be the worst thing to ever happen to me.
