broken wings

2.2

I took a quick nap, I set the alarm for an hour. To tell you the truth I only got 20 minutes, I thought I was gonna enjoy it, but the devil himself came barging in my room, it was none other than Justin himself.

"Hey kiddo"
"hey" I answered
"how was school?"
"It was good none other than the fact that I came home to see my long lost daddy".
" oh so yall talked"
"what do you mean, have we talked?".

"Well me and him talked, it's good to know that everyone is on the same page". Is he serious right now.

"what do you mean y'all talked, and you didn't think to tell me?" I yelled.

"look, calm down, I didn't tell you, because look at how you're acting right now, how was I supposed to know how you were gonna react?".

I sighed "you didn't, but at the same time, I would have found a way to get through it, how long has it been?"
"What?"
"Justin, don't play with me, how long has this been, since yall talked" he sighed
"about three weeks ago".

"Wow, And yall say don't keep secrets, like I can't even look you in your face right now".

After all this what else could they possibly be hiding from me, like is my mom in on this too?.

"I'm gonna go get some fresh air".

I reached into my bag for my car keys, I paced my way to my door and down the steps. "Kehaulani" Justin yelled my name as I went out the front door. At that moment I can not be in the same room as him, like I'm just now seeing my dad, and on top of that, they all want to hide things from me.

I drove to a nearby park, I got out of the car and walked to the nearest bench. I watched as the sun went down, I decided I was gonna go for a jog, so I grabbed my earbuds from my hoodie's pocket hole. I started jogging around the track, I did at least two laps until I felt as if I wanted to change the song on my playlist and "boom" I fell straight to the ground.

I grabbed the top of my head "ahh''.

"so is this how we're gonna keep running into each other?"

I looked up and mentally slapped myself.
"Look, I am so sorry I was changing the song, not really paying attention, I didn't think anyone would be here".

"it's okay, me either I usually would come out here at night to get some laps in but now I know It's not just me".

"oh okay, and I know I apologized earlier today, but I am really sorry for the way I have been treating you, I was going through something and I took it out on you, that was wrong of me".

He looked over at me "you don't have to keep apologizing, it's okay, I mean from one person to another, I understand where you're coming from, so it's okay".
"I never really looked at it that way" he laughed.

" yes I can see"
" shut up" I said

"alright sorry, do you wanna get some ice cream, and we can just talk from there?" I smiled

"sure, I don't mind" we continued our walk, as we were walking to the ice cream parlor he would push me every now and then.

I guess he wasn't so bad after all, I can see it as we were just two misunderstood teenagers. We walked into Kandy's cream shop, which by far was the city's best ice cream. He got a hot fudge sundae, and I got mint ice cream in a bowl, and he found us a seat by the window.

It does kinda feel weird to be eating ice cream at night with someone who I never thought I would have trusted.
"Are you enjoying your ice cream?". I looked away from the window.
"yea it's the best, there's no second guessing it at all".
"oh really?"
"Yea really".
