"So you're telling me that a hot man arrived at our school, claims to be your brother AND wants to take you to New York?" Jessica asked in disbelief while Caleb and Belvina were still shocked.
I nodded, "Yes, That's about it, I'm scared to be honest, You know?Like, what if people don't like me? What if they are disgust-" Caleb cover my mouth with his hand, a look of horror on his face,
Give him a break, my brain cried out, he just overcame his shock!
"Don't say that!" He cried out, "Everybody loves you! They accept you here, The others will too."
I pat his shoulder and he removes his hand from my mouth, "Does your brother know about you" Jessica asks me, seriously. I shook my head.
"Nope" not popping the 'p'.
Jessica sighs, and falls down on the bed.
We are at Caleb's house right now, It took a lot of Xavier to convince me.
Not really.
I asked him just one question.
--
"Will I get free food?"
"Of course, You don't have to pay for anything" He scoffs and I smile.
He just made the biggest mistake of his life.
"When are we going?" . He looked shocked, Mr. Teller had a huge grin on his face.
Dumbly knows me too well.
--
"When are you going?" Belvina asked sniffling. They think Xavier begged me to come.
What they don't know doesn't hurt them.
"Uh- Tomorrow?" I reply nervously, My packing was done already, Xavier called my social worker who was more than happy to do a background check and well living with blood relatives is better I guess so she filled the papers to cancel my transfer way too fast.
Jessica swatted my shoulder, "Nate" She cried out. "That's too early, We can't even give you a farewell party" Belvina nodded seriously. "We NEED to have a Farewell party, I agree with Jessica" .
I shook my head, "No, Besides I'm meeting someone at the Cafe for coffee today" Caleb grinned, "Blind date?" He asked and I rolled my eyes
"I'm meeting my uh- brother's wife?" I chuckle, and Caleb frowns. "Aww, man. I'll miss you, terribly" . I hug him and belvina and Jess join our hug. I pull back after a few seconds and frown.
"I'll miss you guys too. You've been with me for so long and I'm gonna miss you so so much. We'll call each other everyday okay?" I ask and they all nod eagerly.
We talk for a few more minutes and I get a message.
New-brother's- wife
I'm almost here, Sunset Cafe, right?
Me
Yes, Sunset Cafe, I'll be there in a few.
