Izzy’s pov A few days later and I got a call from a number I didn't know, the woman on the phone asked if she could speak to Isadore. I tell her that's me, and ask how I could help her. She asked if I could come to dinner today at about 4. I said sure I'm assuming it's the landlord and she might want me to move my car. I said I'll be there soon to meet her. She said oh no you will be meeting mr. Frost said, oook i guess ill me him there soon. On my way to dinner I couldn't help but remember the first day there. Flashback: I was 14 years old and the school just said that if we keep up our grads we could have a part time job. I was so excited I went all over town that I could walk to. The dinner was the last place I stopped for the day, and when I walked, there was Beth. She worked over to me and asked me what I would like. I asked for a glass of water and she brought me a tall glass of cold water and asked what else she could help me with. I told her that my school just said that if we are in AP classes and we keep up our grads we can get a job. I showed her the paperwork she asked me to hold on and she went to get Ray. His face was confused and something else I never could understand but he relaxed and asked what he could help me with. I expanded everything to him and he agreed to hire me.over the next few weeks working at the dinner, i couldn't help but feel safe and relaxed here. That's how our little family started. Beth and Ray helped me with home work and life stuff. When they found out Gigi was taking my money and the minions would still think that I had left, that's when they really started helping put my money away and hiding my debit card. Ray told me after school that I had to eat and do my homework first and keep up my grads. over the years he helped me and saved me in his own way. Beth wanted to go to my group home and rip Gigi's head off for taking my money and some of the bull s**t she put me through. I truly was home with them. When I was starting my college application, Ray showed me his old college Crystal lake university. It was beautiful and had all the class courses that I wanted to take. It was perfect. Ray really was like my grandpa, I wish I had. I also wish he was here now to see me off tomorrow. When I got to the dinner I saw a man sitting out front. I asked if he was Mr Frost and he said yes. He asked if I would like to have a set,then he began. Im mr. Frost and I'm Ray's lawyer and I'm sorry for your loss Isadore. It's Izzy, I told him. He nodded his head, and started again.Ray was a great guy. That made me smile. He truly was, I thought to myself , Mr.frost, contending to read Ray’s well he left me; the dinner and apartment upstairs, along with a few other things in a safety deposit box at the bank just outside crystal lake in a nearby town. It all had me crying and wishing he was here. He handed me a check from Rays bank here in town, and the dead to the dinner, then asked me if there was anything I needed help with. I look at him then, at the dinner. I asked if he could sell it for me and just send me the money as much as this place brought me joy; I'm leaving for college tomorrow and I don't need it i said. nodding his head and said he will take care of it. He then asks if there is anything else? I ask what happened to his body and to Beth. He told me Beth's family claimed hers and she to be laid to rest back home in Maine and as for Rays’ his body is being cremated as his last wish was and then to be brought to the dean at crystal lake university. I looked at him and said I can do that. When will he be ready? I asked. He said in two days I said I can do that for him. I was leaving tomorrow but I can do it in two days. It gives me time to clean out the apartment too. I sing the papers and stuff ,mr. Frost then handed me a copy of it and a set of keys . Thank you mr. Frost. Your welcome isadore. I gave him a smile and he left. I took the keys out and handed inside. As I walked up the stars I couldn't help but to remember the good times we had here. work parties, christmas, birthdays, and a few good buys ones, it was better sweet, walking up these stairs it made me sad that Ray was gone. As I entered the apartment I started to cry. He was truly gone. I cried for a good hour and told myself I need to get things done. Ray would be mad if I was crying over him like a big baby. That made me laugh. I could hear him now saying, hey little lysa don't cry for me,we will meet again, you have more important things to do, then to cry over me. He would always call me little lysa. I asked him what it meant one day, he said lysa ment light . I couldn't help laughing at that . He said his mom used to call him and his sister her little lysa, when they were growing up. Ray was truly a god sent to me. He made my darkest day better. I was truly blessed to have him in my life. I stood up and looked around. I better get started. I looked at the time and it was almost 630 i guess I'll take the wagon home in an hour and load up my stuff. I'll clean out the kitchen first. That will be the easiest. An hour later I was done. Time to go back to the hell hole and get my stuff. On the way down I made sure I had cash on me to give to Gigi when I got there. I already know I will have to pay to enter. I roll my eyes just thinking of it. On my way to the house, I couldn't shake this feeling that I was being watced. As I got to the house, I stopped and pulled out my house key, thinking to myself that better take everything with me. knowing Gigi and her minions once they learn that no one is picking me up tomorrow that they will get rid of the few things i had. just as I thought Gigi was at the door. Where do you think you're going? she said. I need to be paid for you to come in here. You are good for nothing, useless child. Here Ms. GIgi it is all I got today. I have to get my stuff now and go back. No one will be pick me up tomorrow, and I have to bring it to dinner now. They said that they will talk to me at the bus stop but that's it. That they can't help me any more. She looked at me and with a big grin on her face, awww poor you i guess they finly see what we all see in you! nothing but a useless piece of garbage and a ugly little piece of s**t as well. Hurry up I don't have all night. You have 30 mintens. leave your key at the door. If you take it with you I will call the cops on you. If you come back to get anything after that 30 mintens I'll call the cops. I’ve been nice to you and I'm done. Whatever you don't take, I'll just throw it away. Yes ms. Gigi. As walk down the hall i couldnt help but to think ,f*****g Bich I know this would happen. that's why i plan to get everything at least i don't have to see her again in my life thank God of that. As I loaded the last box up the f*****g minions came in and seen what I was doing. Oh good the little w***e is finally going, Amy said and Kaley just laughs. f*****g bitches i tought to my self, if any one was as w***e was them. I saw them get into random cars with men and god only knows what they do and mite have. Yeah guys i'm going guess this is the last time i will see you hope you have a wonderful life and turn on and walk out. Oh one more thing make sure gigi gets this and left the key by the door as i walk out and place the box in the wagon i have to walk slowly i'm afraid that thing might fall out. Guess I should put this in the car tonight, when I get there and then go start on the apartment. It still breaks my heart thinking that Ray didn't have anyone who would want his stuff other than me. My heart hurts just thinking about Ray and Beth. I miss them so much. As I was walking back I felt something wet on my face. I didn't realize I was crying again. Get it together, Iszy , I started feeling uneasy again like I was being watched again like some was behind me. I turned around and there was no one there. I took a deep breath. there's no one there. I'm safe, I'm safe, I kept repeating. I kept walking,it's just a few more blocks to the dinner. That's when I heard something hit the ground. I turned and saw a cat knocking over a trash can. f*****g CAT!!! I said out loud. I stopped and took a few more breaths, before I continued. Get it together Izzy! s**t! Stop acting like a two year old scared of the big bad wolf under her bed. s**t! ok just one block and I'll be there. At least that feeling has stopped. I'm starting to feel better,and not so scared.
