How the hell did all of this happen. One moment I had it all and the next, I am reading a tweet about me being broke. My dad made a mistake, the way he puts it, and lost it all. Like all, money, house, cars... The bank will take the house in the next week or so, the cars too, there is nothing left. I even have to leave school since he needs to withdraw the payment. What the hell are we going to do? I have to leave my friends my life, fuck. I was sitting on my staircase calling Tom when the whole situation became even better.
The drive was quiet. I had so many questions, starting with what Tom told me, "What your dad did."From what I understood his investment failed and he has to repay money that was lost. I looked at him and opened my mouth to speak but he beat me to it.
The best summer of my life was over - note the sarcasm, and the school is starting. I really do not want to do this. I have nothing in life. No one cared to even text me to see how I am doing, I can not speak with my dad, he does not care, mom, I have no idea where she is. It is like no one cares why should I. I am laying in my bed contemplating whether I should get up or just disappear. Getting up won, if I am going to be a loser at least I will be an educated one.
Today was Monday again, the same thing all over again get up, shower, get dressed, breakfast, drive to school. As I got out of my car in the school parking lot I saw Lilly and Sophie. Sophie was behind Lilly and that girl Anna was talking to them. From Lilly's face again, I could tell it was nothing good and Sophie was crying. Now I have no habit of helping strangers, but Sophie is really cute and there is no reason for someone to make her cry.
She wisped "hello" my dad turned to me, I can say he was furious I am guessing because - why is there a girl on my door, but as soon as he saw my face he knew I had no idea. But out of nowhere, Sophie came out "hi" and an older lady, maybe a couple of years older than my dad with a dashing smile and a 2-year-old baby on her hip.
I almost did not sleep last night. I was struggling with myself should I do something or just let everything go. I had arguments on both sides. Getting up I decided to try, I already tried doing nothing so I could try to do something. I took a shower, got dressed and walked outside, I saw Lilly, deciding to start my day with a kik I waved at her, just to see her blush, oh and she did.
I could not sleep, Tom never replied to my message, but I really think he sent it just to piss me off. I know he was never with Nat before, but I know he wanted to, hell the whole school wanted to. How stupid she must be to fall for a guy like him really, I was no saint, but really. I had no words, his life now is what I had. I was so mad, I knew I had to get out, take
Finally I have what I need. I called Lily and Zack to pick me up. We need to get to the courtroom to give my dad the evidence, and finish this finally. They picked me up, and we drove as fast as we could. Once we arrived at the court, I passed the security, and I was looking for the courtroom. I could hear Lilly in the background, “good luck”. I went to my dad and his Layer, I had to be convincing, but I silently called my dad “Hey this is all you need to win, just trust me and give this to the judge”. He looked at me, not now, son. I caught his hand, “ Dad please trust me, all the evidence is there, please.” He invited his Layer, and I told him, all the evidence for this you have on this file, please give this to the Judge and no one else, the police is involved.” He looked at me strangely, and with a stern voice, are you sure about this?” I was getting tired of these questions, “please just give it to the judge.” The second my mom saw me and her lawyer, they went read. T
"You love me Arron'', she had the biggest mile and I caught myself that I was smiling too, "I mean I do not know, I think I d.." I did not get to finish my sentence and she tackled me, " I do to" She started to kiss me all over my face, "I love you too, I love you too" but then "wait, we need to get our plan in motion, now, or it will be too late. The plan was to send my mother a message, that if we split the money from the house I will get the dad to confess, and we can get rid of him. Also we have to meet to make sure what they want from the information. It was really a good plan, since once I meet my mother, I will record her and her Lawyer framing my dad, I just have to make sure my dad does not know about this. Lilly needed to leave and I was really not willing to let her go, "please stay, just tonight, I promise I will behave", I can see from her face she also did not want to go, "I have to, Nana is working and I am babysitting tonight, some other day". She kissed me and I w
Daren called me and we spoke for hours, well more like he talked and I just listened, his dad went insane, wanted to divorce, and take custody of Daren, he even slapped his mother, Daren got involved to protect his mom. It kinda was not fair since no one is blaming the real guilty person here Zak's dad, just Darren's mom. After hanging up, I had to call Lily, I just had to hear her voice. I was interrupted once my dad came back. I went down just to check on him and I was really worried after I saw him. "Dad" I called him "Dad are you ok". He looked at me like he is about to cry "No Arron i am not, you mother went to the feds, and told them that she will be their witness since she saw me dealing with the Mafia", he sight, " they will bring charges, tomorrow, and Arron and I have no money for the Lawyers, or anything. You will have to go to her, she will take everything, I do not know what to do Arron." What the hell is that woman doing, is she crazy. "Dad we can mortgage the house a
So we sat down and Daren tried to explain everything that he could. Well, more like everything he knew. The way things are looking is that his mother seduced Zach's father. Well, that is the story that everybody's saying, but actually, it's kind of the opposite. Zach's father has been pursuing Darren's mother for a very long time now, and they dated in college. It's a very difficult situation and I have no idea how the adults are gonna fix it, but I told Darren it's not his problem. It's their parents who need to fix it. You should not get in the middle of anything, even if you are. If they created the problem, they should fix it. In the end, we had to go, Darren had to face everybody and he promised he would send us a message once he was home. I went home with Lilly and the whole ride we did not speak much. Was it from all the things that happened today and the realization of why it happened, it was too much. We are just kids, we should not be dealing with this shit. When we got ho
I was sprinting towards the library, it was on the south end of the school, and it seemed like I needed forever to get there. As I was approaching the Library I could see a group of children gather around, I guess the classes started and that is why the group was not big. When I heard Darren, I lost it. Some kids saw me and just moved. Luckily Darren did not see me and as I was running I just tackled him and started hitting. I throw a couple of punches before I felt Lilly's hand on me and through all the anger boiling in my head, I heard her voice, begging me to stop. She was pulling me and I had to stop. I dropped my hands and turned to her, she was crying and I am guessing it is because of me and I know Darren is unconscious, if my weak hit in the cafeteria knocked him out, this would get him to the hospital. That is good, maybe he will get it now, not to mess with my friends or Lilly. But then the real trouble came, the Principal. He was pushing kids to come to us and I know it
We stood like that for about twenty minutes, when she poked my shoulderblade "Ummm, I can barely breathe, could you let me go for a second."My response was short, "If you are saying no, I am not letting go." She took a deep breath, "Aron, let me speak."I let her go just for a second, so I can look at her, to see how serious she is, yap it was a moment to let go."I know you are afraid, but I am too. I, I, never had a boyfriend, and I am just scared when you are bored you will look for something more fun. Because let's be honest I am boring, I study A LOT, I have to babysit, I am not a fan of parties..."I stopped her right there, " I do not need you to be the life of the party, socialite, I need you to be you. You did not herd what I told you, I had a fun girl and it was not enough I cheated, I never took her seriously. I do not want to say bullshit line, with you is different, but it is. You challenge me on all levels to be bett
I went home, I wanted to tell my dad about math, but the way the day continued, I just wanted to disappear. I will have to face Lilly eventually and end things for good but now I just want to forget what happened, and I will deal with everything tomorrow. It will be hard but it is what it is. I am not ready for a relationship, not even close, also what is up with all the questions, what we are… where does this girl live.. Why it can not be let’s just have fun. My dad was not home which was perfect, but it did get me thinking he is really out these days. I will talk to him when everything is over with Lilly. I got ready and left for the restaurant. I was in a foul mood but guys might make it better. As I arrived at the restaurant everyone was there waiting and cheered for me when I entered. It was a fun night, we eat burgers, nana's special burger
What the hell was I thinking, I was so angry, so pissed off and the best thing that I could do is ask Lilly on a date. What is wrong with me, but I was on the edge. When I saw Anna talking to Lilly that got me mad, but when I heard what she was telling her, I do not know, it was more than anger. I wanted to shelter her from every single word Anna spoke. Anna needs to be taught a lesson, she can not go around and talk like that and I will deal with her later. Back on the mistake, I did, I may have destroyed my friendship with Lilly but to be honest, maybe it is for the best. I know I can not be just her friend, but I am not sure if I want more than that…The moment I asked her and told her to text me I walked away. Imagine that, me being afraid of rejection, ME ARON…..As I was walking away, with my thoughts when I heard a scream, YES.That wa
Lilly's POV"Lilly, hun, are you listening to me?" I shook my head, "Sorry Nana, I was just thinking about something. Can you repeat again?"Nana's warm smile was always comforting, no matter what we did, she was always there for us sometimes with not pleasant conversations but we knew we could count on her."Might be something connected to the boy next door?" I did not miss the sneaky smile."No, maybe a bit," I know I was red as a tomato, luckily the kids were playing and could not see me.It was our night. This is something Nana and I have since I came to live with her. We order Pizza, watch some girl moves, and just talk. She was right, Aron has occupied my mind since I met him. Well, it is not like we met officially, more like I ran away like an i
