My fright turned to anger the second I saw him. ”Joseph what the hell do you want?” I was to angry to remember the last time he met me after a game which had been three weeks earlier before him and her before he did that to me…” I hate your guts I told you I never wanted to see you again you idiotic jerk!!!”
“Gosh, Jen I was just coming to apologize for well…hurting you and all. I know it was wrong and I knew but I was to far gone that night to even know the difference-”He sounded hurt but he wasn’t anything he said I learned that the hard way…
I interrupted him right there “I don’t care what you have to say. You hurt me and can’t let it go so please just leave me alone.” I knew one thing that would scare him so I started crying. He looked dumbfounded and left.
I couldn’t stop crying though and somehow I ended up driving home to my parents, who weren’t about to forget that I waked out in the middle of dinner.
“Jennifer Marie stop right there.” my father called as I tried to head up the stairs.
“Would you like to explain where you-”he stopped as I turned around and saw the splotches I could feel on my face ”what happened tonight?”
I sighed knowing I would never get to bed without even a partial explanation. My parents never found out what happened that fateful night but seemed glad as my grades improved even more and didn’t ask question about why joseph wasn’t around any more.
“Well basically dad I forgot about the volleyball game-which is why I skipped out on dinner and I just well was reminded of some painful things before I came home. So if you don’t mind I’ll be upstairs taking a shower.”
I said it all in a rush trying to keep my voice calm and the tears to a minimum.
I ran upstairs but not before the tears came again then a knock came at my door. A Miss Emma is at the door for you said a voice from the other side. Emma must have followed me home.
Go ahead and send her up. I knew it was either tonight in the privacy of my own home or tomorrow at school that she would ask about what had happened. I chose home because I could cry freely.
She knocked on my door. I answered it and all she said was “Spill”
