Zabdiel Rodriguez

It's been days and Addison hasn't been responding to my texts and I'm starting to worry.

I try to call him but it's straight to voicemail.

"Hey! It's me Zabdiel... I just want you to know I Love You So Much"

I smile as I hang up the phone.

I get inside the school. And students are smiling at me.

It's been a rough week but I made it through.

My mom's okay.

And my mom told my dad and they're starting to handle things very well.

I stop on Addison's locker hoping to catch him.

I stand for so long waiting for him to come. But he didn't.

The bell rings and I have no choice but to go to my class.

I check my phone in case Addison respond to all my messages.

But he didn't.

~~~•~~~•~~~•~~~•~~~•~~~•~~~•~~~•~~~

The bell rings and class is over.

I walk directly to Addison's class hoping we can go together to our English class.

Students walk outside the room but there is no Addison.

Suddenly I see Jade walking along the hallway.

I smile and walk towards her.

"Have you seen Addison??" I ask.

"Oh he's absent. He's not feeling well" Jade smile.

"wait he talked to you but he can't even bother to respond to my messages??" I frown.

"No he didn't. His mom called the school. My mom told me he can't come. He won't respond to my messages either" Jade sigh.

And now I feel nervous.

What if he's self-harming again??

What if he's back to being suicidal??

"don't worry maybe he's just sick. You should go and check on him" Jade smile.

"I will... I definitely will" I smile.

I walk outside the school and directly go to my car.

I get inside and start my engine.

I'm gonna miss a class today but I don't care. I need to know if Addison is okay.

I start to drive on my way to Addison's house.

The light turns red and I have to stop.

I look right and see a flower shop.

Should I buy Addison a flower??

Of course! He needs it.

I park my car in front of the flower shop and get inside the shop.

I look around and there's a flower that catches my eyes.

This flower is pink and looks like a cherry blossom.

I grab the bouquet and walk towards the counter.

"Hi" The girl smile.

I smile back and she chuckles.

"Is this for your girlfriend?? Almond Blossom is just so perfect" She smile.

"It's for my Boyfriend" I smile.
