It has been a few hours since I've been staring at this blank ceiling, trying to connect the dots as to what just happened. But I couldn't. It was the first time dad acknowledged my presence other than wanting me to be in my room so that his business friend doesn't see me.
I was dying to know what was stopping him from kicking me out. I mean, I don't actually want to be kicked out but I can't help but wonder.
But even if I did get kicked out I could always just go to Ruby's. Maybe.
Speaking of the devil, my phone chimed. I knew there was no one else than Ruby in my contacts that would text me so I jolt out of my bed to grab my phone.
ruby<3: hey! i just wanna tell you that i won't be in school next week bc i have several interviews i need to attend.
I frowned.
me: awh what :(( now im sad
I could almost hear her chuckling from over the text and the thought made me smile.
ruby<3: im also not too sure about the next week to.. but according to my manager im gonna be busy :/
ruby<3: technically it's your fault bc hadn't you dragged me right after my competition, i could've attended SOME interviews and i wouldn't have to completely drag it to the next weekme: but hadn't i dragged you right after your competition we wouldn't be dating, now would we? :)
ruby<3: you're annoying.
I chuckle.
me: thanks for the compliment. anyway wanna call tonight?
ruby<3: can't, i have dinner with my manager and my coach and Lucas and his manager.. all those people. next time okay? :))
me: :(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
me: fine. you are forgiven. enjoy your dinner!!ruby<3: thank you!!
I paused as I was about to type the next word, but I mentally said fuck it and sent.
me: i love you :( <3
ruby<3: I LOVE YOU TOO :(
ruby<3: damn our frowns after our 'i love you' just brought us to another level in our relationshipme: we do it like no other.
ruby<3: BHAHAHHA OKAY anyway gtg byee
me: bye!
I turned off my phone. I wanted to hear her soothing voice, and comforting words when I tell her what happened between my dad and I. But I guess that just had to wait.
As if on cue, me door knocks and a familiar voice that I haven't heard in what felt like ages followed.
"Ethan? You there?"
