The Next Day
its the day and i'm waking up early so i can practice some math problems before our competition today
we already won the big one earlier this week but now we have just small ones between the schools
but we need to show that we deserve a win
as i'm practicing the problems i get a call from Daniel
"hello?" i say answering it
"hey so i heard that you have a math competition today and i wanted to know if you could give me a ride to it"
"give you a ride to it? why?"
"cause i'm going to watch it duh?"
"you are?"
"Of course I am. i obviously have to show my baby cousin how proud of her i am"
"hey i'm only a day younger"
"still a baby compared to me. anyways why did you think i wasn't gonna go"
"well jonahs not coming so"
"jonahs also an asshole. i know you hate when i say that about him but you know it's true"
"whatever"
"you could do so much better"
"okay daniel i hear it from everyone i don't need you to tell me too"
"sorry. anyways i gotta go"
"okay bye i love you"
daniel repeats it and hangs up on me
before i can put my phone down it's grabbed out of my hands
i turn around and jonahs standing furiously with it
"who did you just call"
"my cousin"
"why did you say i love you"
"cause he's my cousin?"
"oh sure your 'cousin' then why is his name Dani with a red heart"
"that's what his name is relax" i laugh
"fucking slut" he mutters under his breath but i hear him
"what did you just call me"
"you heard me. you're probably fucking cheating on me with your 'cousin'"
"he is my cousin stop!"
"you're supposed to be a nerd not someone who gets guys"
"seriously Jonah i thought you were done being an asshole to me"
"well i didn't think you would be cheating on me"
"IM NOT CHEATING ON YOU HES MY FUCKING COUSIN"
"DON'T YELL AT ME CAUSE I CAN GET REAL FUCKING LOUDER THAN YOU " he screams really loudly and i cover my ears
"what's wrong with you" i whimper tears rolling down my eyes
i hate being yelled at, i always have and i always will.
"stop crying you put yourself in this situation calling another guy and telling him you love him"
"he's just my cousin" i respond still crying
"why are you fucking crying, fucking baby"
"c-cause you're yelling at me"
"then don't do things to make me yell."
"i-i didn't do anything"
"whatever bitch i'm leaving"
"can you stop calling me names like that please it's hurting me"
"i don't care"
"what happened from the jonah last night that brought me all these flowers and was so sweet and kind to me"
"i was in a good mood but after last night when you wouldn't stop moving i couldn't sleep and now i'm angry"
"so you have to take it out on me"
"i'm not taking it out on you"
"so you calling me a slut and a bitch and a baby after you yelled at me isn't taking your anger out on me"
"i'm just saying what's true. i bet you only joined the math team so you can be around people that actually would like someone like you"
"someone like me?"
"yeah a worthless nerd."
"you really think i'm worthless."
"i said it didn't I"
"then why are we together"
"without me who else would you be with. anyways i really need to smoke bye" he leaves my house and i let all my tears flow again
i thought after last night he was done being mean to me
