I take Rachel back to mine so she can stay the night. It’s Saturday. Four in the morning…
I wake up again 6 hours later. I plod downstairs and go into the kitchen where my brother Colin is preparing to go to work.
Colin- “You look tired”
I mumble something about bad dreams and sneak a sip of his coffee.
Colin- “I take it Rachel slept over last night? I don’t remember seeing her when I came home from work last night?”
Me- “She crashed here after a party”
Colin- “Ok. By the way, Steve’s mum called… his funeral is on Monday”
Me- “That’s so soon!”
Colin- “I know. But his mum wants to get it over with by the sounds of things.”
Me- “To be honest, I don’t blame her. Did she say anything about the accident?”
Colin- “Ellie… Steve’s girlfriend? She told the police that a car was driving on the wrong side of the road. Steve swerved to avoid it and crashed…”
Colin glances at his watch and realises he’s late for work. He’s left me some breakfast, but I don’t feel like eating. I take the plate of eggs and toast through to Rachel who’s just woken up.
Rachel- “I’m sorry by the way”
Me- “Eat up Rach… don’t worry about it”
Rachel- “I miss him… we used to talk everyday”
I blank her out. It’s too hard to talk about him right now.
*********************************************************************
I walk through the aisles of my local supermarket. It’s my job to do the shopping now. I turn and walk down the dairy aisle and see Hazz at the end.
Me- “Hey!”
Hazz grins at me and hugs me. I’m so thankful to have him.
Hazz- “How you doing?”
Me- “A lot better now I’ve seen you!”
Hazz- “Really? Wow, I feel loved! Haha… Listen erm, Jamie called me last night. He was pretty upset”
Me- “I was pretty upset”
Hazz- “Yeah, I know. But you know, he never cheated on you… and he never cheated on Chloe. He broke up with her at least a month ago. But she keeps bugging him. And he really does-”
Me- “I don’t wanna talk about it! Jamie is the least of my worries right now…”
Hazz- “I know he is babe, but you both love each other so much, and you can’t let love go to waste!”
Me- “I can and I will! Look, maybe in a few months time, when my leukaemia is cured, I’ll think about it”
That was weird. Through all the commotion with Jamie, Steve and Rachel, I hadn’t thought about my illness at all.
I say goodbye to Hazz and pick up a pint of milk, walking round the corner to the next aisle.
It’s deserted. Totally baron… except for Steve. He’s different. His eyes are brown… they remind me of someone- why does he look so familiar?
But Steve is also ghostly pale. He lifts his hand, and points slowly at the newspaper rack. I walk towards it, and pick up a newspaper.
LOCAL BOY KILLED IN BRUTAL CAR CRASH!
I choke. I feel Steve walk towards me, and suddenly, I’m cold. I’m freezing cold. My skin tingles with the cold. One sentence on the page stands out. It looks like someone spilled a drink on this paper. One sentence reads, “The police are investigating the accident, which took place on a mountainside near the other victim’s house…”
Wait a second…
Mountainside? Other victim?
Then I remember…
Ellie lives in a valley. No one drives up the mountains, especially during the summer. Even then, the speed limit is 20mph because of the sharp bends in the road.
There couldn’t have been a vehicle on the wrong side of the road. If there had been, then Steve would have crashed down the mountainside, not into tree…
I shake my head. No it can’t be…
Trust your instincts Abi
But that means that-
Yes
Ellie lied?
