"So much for a big escape huh?" Joshua asked as he sat on the bed next to me.

I kept my phone down with a huff and glared at him. "Why are you still alive? I thought that mice trap would have killed you" I said.

"it surely gave me a heart attack, dear, but come on it wasn't enough to take me" Joshua said with a smile.

"Are you going somewhere?" I asked, checking out his outfit. A white shirt, black pants and a black leather jacket. "you have a date?" I asked. "When I am leaving?"

"Hey, just because you are in gloom doesn't mean everyone should be" Joshua said, shrugging his shoulders. "besides Matt and I have just started going out and I really like him"

"Not with that shirt" I said, getting out of the bed.

"What is wrong with this?" he asked, following me to my closet.

"a shirt with a collar and a black leather jacket. You suck at fashion" I said, taking out a white shirt with an oval circle and gave it to him. "wear this, and wear that hideous black chain you wore when you were a kid. He will fall on his knees for you"

"Please" Joshua scoffed, removing his jacket and his shirt as he wore the one I gave him. "okay, so mom will come here and let you know all about your flight and stuff"

"It better be early, I can't stay here for long" I said, sighing as I opened the curtains of all of my windows. Upon doing that my whole room brightened with sunlight. I sighed and looked around my room. This room was one of my favorite part of the whole house. A room full of windows and a lot of closets, it's a room any girl could dream of.

"You would rather stay with your aunt than your siblings" Joshua commented.

"no comments" I mumbled as I opened my room door. "get out"

"Are you sure this what you want?" he asked, giving me a look.

"I have never been so sure of anything else in my life" I said. "I know it doesn't make sense, but it does to me. So please don't ask me otherwise"

"alright, alright" he said and left my room.

"Miley, you haven't come for hours" Garcia said with her thick Spanish accent as she entered my room. "you missed family lunch"

"What is family?" I asked with a sigh.

"don't say that, Pierda, this is home, the only place you have when your whole world is falling apart" Garcia said, placing the trolley which had food near my bed.

"thank you, Garcia" I said as I pulled the trolley closer to me and took a fork out.

"Miley" she called my name with her accent. "you leaving, it's sure?"

"How does it bother you?" I asked as I tore the bread and placed some spinach dip on it and took a bite.

"Because we all will miss you" Garcia said as she straightened her apron and approached me. "I will miss you"

"worry not, Garcia, I will deposit money into your account every month" I said grinning as I took the Frankie in my hand.

"It's not about that, Miley, it's not about money" Garcia said, as I took a huge bite of the Frankie. I was mad hungry, skipping family lunch was my sign of rebel saying 'I don't want to stay here no longer than a second'. But God it was so not worth it. I devoured the entire Frankie in another two bites and sighed in relief.
