Maya's Hart

Chapter 13

Maya's POV:

I walk back to my house. Before I enter, I hear excessive giggling and laughing. What the fuck? Who else could be home but my mom?

I knock on the door slowly.

"Oh that must be Maya! I'll be right back hun," I hear my mom say. Hun? Who was she calling hun? She opens the door.

"Maya! I've got a huge surprise for you, come in," my mom says weirdly. Was she drunk? I slowly step in with a weird look on my face. What was going on?

"Maya! How've you been?" Says a man who was for some reason in my living room. He seemed drunk as well.

"Do I know you?" I ask the man. This was getting really scary.

"Of course you do Maya! He's your father, I went to a bar and we found each other," my mom giggles. I froze for a few minutes. How can he be my dad? Why'd he come back all of a sudden? What the fuck was he doing here? I had so many questions but I couldn't speak because of how angry and shocked I was. At the same time I felt like breaking down crying.

"Get out," I managed to choke out.

"That's no way to treat your dad missy," my "dad" scowled.

"Get out!"

"In your fucking dreams," he yells as he punched me straight in the eye. I quickly cover up my eye and look at him. He had the most creepy smile on his face, I look back at my mom and she just stares at me disappointingly. I quickly run out the front door, away from my drunk ass "parents".

I needed to go back to Riley's. This was killing me. What ever happened to his other family? Since when did my mom go to bars and drink? She always tells me she's working all the time.

I check my phone to see what time it was. 12:39am. I really hope Riley was somehow still awake. I climb up the fire escape and look through her window. Shit. She was in bed. I knock on the window a couple times to see if she was awake at all. Nothing. I open the window, it quickly opens. I'm so glad Riley forgets to lock her window. I hop in, jump on her bed, and sleep right besides her.

Riley's POV:

"Maya? Maya? Maya? Maya!" I yell in Maya's ear, trying to wake her up. I woke up and found her sleeping right next to me for some reason.

"I'm uuuuuup, chill goddammit," Maya mumbles. She seemed really tired.

"What time is it?" She asks.

"8:30, why were you sleeping here I thought you left to your house?" I say.

"Oh yeah I had a little trouble at home," Maya sighs.

"What happened?" I brush her hair off her left eye. "Maya! You have a black eye,"

"Really? Huh, I must've hit my eye on something on my way here, and don't worry about it it's nothing,"

"Maya?" My dad calls out from downstairs. Maya and I run downstairs.

"Yes sir?" She asks.

"The police are looking for you,"

"Why would the police be looking for me?" She looked confused.

"Your mom reported that you went missing last night,"

"Oh really," Maya bits her lip.

"The police will be here any minute to pick you up," My dad says.

"I can walk home myself,"

"The police wants to drive you home,"

"Fine,"

The police knocks on the door, Maya opens the door and waves goodbye. My dad and I wave back and watched as she left.
