CHAIN
728 Words
As we returned home dad asked me about my first day of school. I didn't want to show him my tears nor did I want to upset him so I didn't tell him about the bullying part .
"So did anyone bully you today jay?" if only I could tell you that i'm hurt
"Erm. nope what made you think that?"
"Are you sure ? you look upset and you know your not capable of hiding any kind of emotions"
"I'm fine. I guess"
" Whatever helps you sleep at night" your not helping dad.
We reached home and I got cleaned up had some snacks , since mom hadn't returned yet I did the dishes and went back to my room . I went up to my rack , where there was box that I kept with one of my most precious things . A CHAIN . It has a gold heart , the missing part of another locket . The other locket is with . Someone whom I met long time ago . I don't know who he is , I don't know anything about him except that he was an orphan . I'm just hoping that I see him . I don't even know if he will recognize me . Ethan . His name is all I know .
knock knock
" Jay"
"Come in mom, you know you don't have to knock , right?"
"I'm just giving you your privacy. Oh by the way how was first day of school?"
There goes that question again.
"It was great . I mean I had a good time "
"Did you make any friends. Honey its the end of the year , why don't you make new friends?"
"MOM... the last time I made friends I know what that led me to . And who would even wanna be friends with a nerd freak ? I'm even starting to think I am not even worth being friends with."
"Sweety why do you even think like that ?" she came sat beside me hugging me
"Can we change the topic . I am really in a good mood ''
" OOOOKKK we can change . did u meet any guy?"
" Mom your not helping "
" Ok how about we make pasta with arrabbiata sauce ?"
"Sounds delicious ..so when do we start?" and that's how the whole evening went , we talked, cooked, laughed, honestly lemme tell you something I love my family more than anything in my life because even though I have bad days I am always excited to come back home to two besties of mine and they will forever be my besties.
And then I heard a good news
"Jay as for a surprise , Jason's coming home with Emily"
" Whhhhhhhhaaaaatttttttttt.ohh my! REALLY! " I was really happy ya know especially when my brother is coming home which doesn't happen often. Don't get me wrong he's a pilot so he doesn't get much of a time to visit us . Emily is his wife and they are also gonna have a baby soon
That night I went to bed happy . But other than my brother coming home which my parents didn't tell me when , I kept thinking of Ethan . I wonder what he's doing right now . I wonder if he's forgotten me . I kept wondering things till I feel into a deep sleep .
The next two days were a holiday . I went racing . One thing your supposed to know about me is I LOVE CAR RACING and I have actually learnt to drive from my brother. My dad appreciates it and he doesn't mind me as long as I don't get myself killed. You might be thinking if I am strong or naïve . like I said I am none accurately . You can call that what you want.
Baking , watching tv, gaming , and playing with my dog is what I do during holidays other that racing . Some of which most nerds don't do I get it . What can I say i'm unique in a weird way. Nobody knows about me and that I actually do other things apart from studying . I guess Sandra's piece of little surprise traumatized me , which further made me not to be close to anyone like before.
After exhaustion its sweet home again.
Lets see what we got tomorrow at school.
