When I got home, I went to the living room because one of my favourite shows was on, but right before I pressed play, I got a text from a unknown number.


XXX

Why the hell are you ignoring me?

Me

If I knew who you were, I would tell you

XXX

It's Jason

Me

How did you get my number?

Jason

I asked you first

Me

And I asked you second

Jason

Just answer me

Me

I wasn't ignoring you... I just wanted to be alone... Your turn

Jason

I have my ways.


I don't answer back since I didn't have an answer and went back to watching my show.

I was half-way through an episode and about to fall asleep when I hear someone knocking on the front door.

My first thought was that it was my mom... but then I remembered that she had her keys with her, so confused, I got up from the couch and made my way towards the window where I could see the front door.

When I looked outside, I got even more confused. 

At my front door was Jason and Ryan waiting for me to open the door.

AS IF I would actually open.

I ignore the knocking, until I hear my mom's car and keys opening the door, being followed by the sound of her heels going towards the hallway I was in.

Trying to get away from her and her questions, I get to the back door, open it and leave.

I go around the house and manage to escape without anybody noticing me.

When I couldn't see my house anymore I looked at my phone noticing a lot of texts and calls from the 3 of them, like always I ignore them and make my way to the closest beach finding it completely empty since it was pretty late, already.

Being so close to the water just made feel like walking the furthest from here, and not come back, so that's what I started doing - This wasn't the first time I tried to hurt myself, especially when I have a clear opportunity *flashback #3*-  but even then, apparently, the universe didn't want me to, because I could hear my mom's screams from the other side of the beach.

Scared of her reaction, I stop walking and wait for her to get to me with my back towards her and the car park.


"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING? DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA OF HOW MUCH YOU SCARED ME??!!"

"What? Why would you do that?"- I act like I have no idea what was happening.

"Why weren't answering our calls?" - She keeps freaking out

"Our?"- I ask keeping up with the act

"Mine and your friends's"- She completes

"1º they aren't my friends, 2º My phone ran out of battery"- I answer shaking my phone on her face clicking the power button, with no fear, since I had turned it off.

"You always have excuses"- She says angrily while grabbing my arm, making me moan in pain. "Thanks for the help guys"- She says when we get to them.

"Of course! I better go"- Ryan warns before walking way from us.


Like expected, on the way home, Jason and mom decided to 'punish' me by screaming at my decision making.

Apparently, they only knew I was home because I left my wallet there.
