We drove in complete silence when I heard "There For You" by Flyleaf. I wanted to cry because it was how I felt but I couldn't risk having my mom see me. She thinks everything is ok and she really doesn't know how it all happened. She knows he died but not much of details and I never want her to know. The silence was soon broken...
Mom: Hey so ummm... did you have any idea of what collage you had planned after the year is over?
The last thing I had on my mind way school. I haven't been back to school in about a month and the teachers didn't send homework because of everything. There were 6 months left of school and I didn't want to attend anymore I told my mom. She said I could go back when I am ready.
Me: Ummmm.... not really.
Mom: Ok well thats fine. Ummm... theres something I need you to do.
Me: What is it?
Mom: Well school called and they said if you don't come back soon then you can't catch up. That means you will fail and either have to go to summer school or repeat the year.
Oh man! I knew this talk was coming but I never expected it to be today! I haven't given school any thought and like I said it was the last thing on my mind. I couldn't go to summer school because I need the break and I couldn't repeat because my best friend Claire would be alone. No choice left but to go back.
Me: Really?
Mom: Yeah.
Me: Ok... I will go back on Monday (2 days from now).
Mom: Well I am proud of you for going back after all this.
Did she really have to bring it up? I was thinking about school and now....hes on my mind! I felt like saying STOP TALKING ABOUT IT! I knew I could never say that to my mom because all she cares about is making me happy. The truth is... I love being alone because she always brings it up.
