happy days

"Fight, fight fight," all you could hear while the halls got overly crowded. As I'm walking down the hall the shouting got louder I could see two girls fighting like crazy. Continuing my walk as if I didn't see anything my head hits a hard surface, hard enough to make me bounce back but soft enough for it not to hurt.

   "Great, it's the world's biggest jerk," I say looking up realizing who it was.

"Oh! So today am a jerk instead of your best friend who girls go crazy for?" Nick smirks at me.

We laughed at each other while walking to the cafeteria, it was time for lunch and I am starving.

"So, how was your exam? Failed? Pass?" He asked taking a seat next to me.

"I did my best that's for sure, and you?" I say stuffing my face with a burger.

"Hmm, same." He says shaking his head. We chatted for a few more minutes before it was time for the next exam.

    As the bell rings, signaling exams are over and time to go home, the halls crowded with everyone again. Some gather into small groups  chatting about the exams and their plans for the holiday while others including myself head for the exits. Living close to the school I enjoyed walking home. Couldn't bother waiting for Nick, he had to chitchat with his crazy girl fans. In the distance, I see someone coming down the street on a bicycle, as it gets closer I could see who it was. It was Delan, a guy who lived close to me, for some reason he decided to make a sudden stop in front of me which of course took me by surprise. He smiles and wink at me before riding off, I stand there for a few seconds asking myself  what the hell just happened before continuing to walk home.

"Mom, am back!" I shouted closing the door behind me. My house wasn't one of those houses you fall head over heels for but it's good enough to make you feel at home. The living room floor is covered with toys while the twin's run around chasing each other.

"Where's my hugs?" I asked holding out my arms which made them stop then run to me laughing and hugging me tightly.

"Where is mommy?" I asked them smiling.

"I, I, I dunno she's gone." Kimmy says shaking her head making her curly hair bounce from side to side. They're just the cutest twin girl and boy I've ever laid eyes on. Kimmy had shoulder length black curly hair and big brown eyes while Kyle had slightly shorter hair but just as curly as kimmy's with the same big brown eyes and the same bright smile.

"I'm hungry." Kyle complains. I chuckled at their response leading them to the kitchen.

"Don't worry she'll be back soon, in the meantime I'll make dinner." I say walking to the kitchen with them tailing behind me. I see their dad sitting around the counter as I walk in, as much as I wanted to turn and leave I couldn't, kyle is hungry. Faking a smile, I greeted him with a "hello."

"Good, your home, I'll leave them to you I've places to be. Oh and your mother went to the supermarket she'll be back soon." He says rushing out.

"As usual" I murmur to myself. We don't really get along well, not because I don't like him....well I actually don't....but that's not the point let's just say he's not really a husband nor a father figure, yet my mother just can't see it.

Finally the twin's are in bed after eating and taking a bath, I can now relax while reading a book until mom gets home. It's around 9PM when she does, hearing the door open and close I head downstairs.

"Hey mom, where were you?" By looking at her I could tell she had a rough day.

"Oh hey chrissy, I went to the supermarket then had to run a few more errands. Where is your dad?"

"What do you mean where is my dad? He's at the cemetery where he's been for the past eight years mom, remember!" I scolded at her.

"I was talking about james!....chrissy honey, james and I have been married for four years now, can't you just accept him? What's so hard in calling him dad are just seeing him as your step dad he's...."

"Mom!" I shouted cutting her off "he's not my dad nor will I ever see him as a father not to mention calling him dad! So just stop please! Am going to take a walk ok?" I shouted slamming the front door behind me.
