‘‘Excuse me?” I say, my voice is shaking, weak. The guy registers my voice as he jumps slightly in his seat. ‘Hmmm’ he says, he’s not listening to busing delicately changing the radio to his favoured station. ‘‘I’ll pay you $1000 to drive me to California’’ This caught his attention, his face turned towards me ,staring, his eyes were unsettled. ‘’Fine, $2000’’ I’m pleading now, I hate showing desperation. I needed to leave soon. ‘California is 3000 miles away!’ his voice sounds doubtful, he stares at me through furrowed eyebrows. ‘Fine, $3000’ I say. ‘I don’t even know you’ he voices echoes through me. I don’t have time for this, I have to leave soon. ‘Why don’t you buy a plane ticket?’ his voice laced with sarcasm. Right, arsehole like I hadn’t thought of that. ‘My passport is in California, I can pay you when we get there’ I say this with disbelief already knowing his answer. I begin to walk away, scanning the car park for a new person, a new hope. ‘Wait-‘ he says leaning outside his car window. ‘Make it $4000 and we have a deal’ ‘Fine’ I say, what’s $4000 of $100,000.

“What is your problem?! LEAVE ME ALONE!” I screeched. I was tired of this and couldn't hold it in. He’s been doing this for a whole year. A WHOLE YEAR. It was the last day and I had nothing to lose from this sudden outburst anyway. I was ecstatic that it was almost summer vacation. I’m going to go to my aunt’s place in Philadelphia and live there for the rest of the summer – AWAY from Dylan and his friends here in Massachusetts. “Never, baby. Wherever you are, I’ll be there.” He sent me one last smirk and left the cafeteria, filing out along with the rest of the students. ♣ “I’ll miss you, sweetie.” “I’ll miss you too, mom. See you in September.” And with that, I closed my suitcase for the last time in Massachusetts and prepared for a peaceful, serene summer in Philadelphia. ♣ “Dylan?!” I shrieked as my glasses drooped down the bridge of my nose. “Abby…?” He sounded unsure as he studied my face and features a bit more. “What are you doing here?” “I should be asking you that,” I stated bluntly while readjusting my glasses. “Oh you silly kids. We already told you. We’re living together!” Elaine announced again. I almost barfed.
