Has No Time..

Chapter 20

Lizbeth's POV

I heard the sound of my alarm piercing through my room. I slowly opened my eyes to see that the sun was gleaming through the clouds. I slammed my hand on the button of my alarm and falling in bed once again. I closed my eyes immediately opening them up again. The memories from last night came flooding to my head as I look over my bed and down to see Ricardo tucked under the blanket I gave him last night.

I leaned down a little bit further and nudged him as he groaned in his sleep. He's always been stubborn so I smacked his arm. His eyes shot up but yet groaned again as he rubbed his arms. He looked up and realized where he was at.

"Yo what the hell?" He asked in his groggy voice

"It's time for you to go!" I said

"Oh shit" he said as he sat up immediately as he stood up to put on his shoes and threw on his jacket.

"Goodmorning to you too" I said in a sarcastic tone

"Yeah morning, thank god you woke me up! I'll see you at school and remember you got my back right?" He said putting his thumb and grinning at me showing his right smile

"Yeah yeah Ray..now get out" I said getting up now and pushing him out of my room. My mom leaves at 4am and now it's 5am so I wasn't worried about him being caught.

He waved bye to me as he exited my room shutting the door behind him softly. I stood up as I figured why go back to sleep when I go get ready and be on time to school. I stood up from bed, did my usual routine, wash face, brush teeth and change. I went for a burgundy top, blue jeans snd white sneakers. I exited the room to see both my sisters exiting their rooms dressed.

"Wow it just feels like we're alone here all the time" Alexa said fixing her plat skirt

"Give mom a break...she works two jobs to give us food and a bed" I said shrugging my shoulders

"Too bad dad never came back" she said looking emotionless. She was very young when my father left, that she doesn't even remember his face. It never affected her in any way but it affected Clara and I to the point where I can't stand at the sound of his name. Clara on the other hand she forgave him or so is in the process of doing even though he isn't around and probably won't ever be

"Yeah and he's never coming back" I said walking past her to the kitchen

"Can you not be so harsh" Clara said walking up behind me glaring at me with wide eyes nearly tryna kill me with eye contact

"What? She never even got to talk to him! She was a baby" I said yanking my arm up in frustration

"Yes! Yes, she was but that's still our father and if he does come back don't you think it would be for a reason..don't you think that he was the one that paid all the money for us to get into the school we're in right now?" She questioned

"So What? Money won't buy my love for him" I said

"I never said that...all I'm saying is that if mom couldn't get the money then dad did to get us into that school...he must've cared" she said. I could get clenching her jaw and tightening her brows together

"Yeah? What about birthday's? Concerts? First times? First words? First day of school? He was never there Clara, mom was..she busted her ass everyday to be there for us and yet you thank dad more than her?!" I said now getting angry

"I never-

"Doesn't matter..if you want to find dad so much, find him but without me" I said backing away "ALEXA CMON!" I yelled out to her as I walked past Clara and out the door. She always took my dads side and I don't blame her, I get it she will always love him and she's not the one to hold anger.
