I have been running for a while now, I didn't know where I was and it was getting really dark and I definitely can't go back home.
I was also stranded I had no money on me. I heard a vibrating sound coming from my Jean pocket.
"Oh my gosh my phone" I sighed with relief
I checked my phone and saw a Text from an unknown number
Hey, it's me Angelina I was wondering if you would like to hangout tomorrow I really need a friend to talk to,Please call me when you see this text Bye.
I have never been so happy over a text message before. I dialed her number quickly and she answered immediately.
"Hey limah" Angelina said cheerfully.
"Hey, I really need your help" I said nervously
"Sure what's up"
"I really need a place to stay even if it's just for tonight" I replied quietly
"Of course limah, anytime"
"Just send me the address of were you are I would come pick you up"
"Thank you so much this really means alot to me"
"Bye see you soon" she said before hanging up.
I quickly checked the location of where I was on my phone, and texted it to her.
"Hey hey"
"Over here" i heard someone shout from the other side of the road
I looked across and saw an elderly looking man waving for me to come over. I didn't even give it a second thought I quickly crossed over.
"Hey" I said to the man
"Are you lost or something" he asked me giving me a weird look.
"Not really just waiting for a friend"
"This place is really dangerous to be here alone"
"Especially at night like this" he added
"I have never been here before" I said to the man truthfully.
"Whatever you better get out of here before you regret it" he said before walking off.
Could my day get any worst I thought to myself.
Thirty minutes later a flashy red car stopping right in front of me.
"Hey limah" Angelina waved at me giving me a sweet smile
"Common hop in" she added opening the car door for me from the inside
I entered quickly and gave her a tight hug.
"Hey you okay" she asked looking at me with a worried expression on her face.
"No I'm not" I whispered truthfully.
"Hey it's okay"
"We will talk about it when we get home okay" she added giving me a tight squeeze before releasing herself from my tight grip.
"Sure" I replied giving her a small smile.
"Don't forget your seat belt" Angelina said while starting the car.
An hour later she drove into the most beautiful house I have ever seen
"Welcome home mi lady" she said in the most dramatic vioce ever, while opening the car door for me.
"Thanks" I said laughing for the first time today.
"Wooooow you live here?" I asked her taking a proper look at the big mansion in front of me.
"Yes I live here alone, my parents are hardly home" she replied with sadness in her eyes.
"The house help only comes twice a week for cleaning, so I'm mostly here alone"
"But I'm use to being lonely" she added laughing awkwardly.
I didn't know what to say I just gave her a small smile.
"Common let's get you inside" she said holding my hands while walking towards the door.
The inside was extremely beautiful I guess her parents are very rich I thought to myself.
"You know limah you can stay as long as you wish" Angelina told me with pleading eyes.
I only smiled in return.
"Oh my God my bad do you need anything"
"We could make pancakes"
"My pancakes are the best" she added dragging me to the kitchen.
"You really excited" I said to her smiling.
"Yes"
"This is my first time having a friend over, so I'm super excited".
"We are friends right" she asked me looking at me with hopeful eyes.
"Yes of course" I said to her giving her a really tight hug for the second time today again.
**********
We were currently in Angelina's room now, she wasn't wrong when she said she makes the best pancakes ever.
"You sure you satisfied limah" she shouted from the bathroom.
"Of course I'm so full" I said honestly.
Few minutes later she came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her.
"It's all yours" Angelina said pointing to the bathroom.
I muttered a quick thank you, when I entered the bathroom, i stared at my reflection in the mirror I looked tired and broken.
And with just that one glance at myself, the tears started coming no matter how I tried to control them, they kept coming.
I thought coming to a new city would make everything better but it just got worst.
I don't even know who I am, I barely remember anything about myself my mom or my dad.
I only remember few events of when I was younger but nothing else. My head is only filled with the things my dad made me believe.
And I feel like I don't know him anymore, he just changed all of a sudden. And I keep having weird bad dreams about him hurting me.
"Limah are you okay in there" I heard Angelina asked from behind the door.
And that brought me back to reality.
"I'm okay"
"I would be out in a minute" I added quickly.
"Alright I left a pair of pajamas for you on the bed okay" she replied.
"Alright thanks".
When I got out from the bathroom Angelina wasn't in the room anymore, I quickly got dress and decided to check my phone.
I got no single phone call from my dad. I don't know if I'm still allowed to call him that. I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't even noticed when Angelina Came in .
"Hey" she said slightly while sitting beside me at the edge of the bed.
"Hi" I replied trying to force a smile. But tears came out instead.
And she immediately pulled me into a hug. She kept whispering reassuring words into my ears telling me it was gonna be okay. That she would always be here for me.
I told her everything about my dad, the way he's been acting and she said I was welcome to stay as long as I wanted to.
I didn't tell her anything concerning xavier or zion, and I also don't think I was ready to talk about that with anyone.
She would probably think I'm insane if I told her I'm helplessly inlove with a ghost boy who everyone thinks he is dead.
And I really hope zion was alright.
"Hey limah" your phone is ringing, Angelina said pointing at the phone beside me
I checked my phone to see it was an unknown number.
"Who's calling" Angelina asked
"I don't know" I said showing her my phone
"It could be something really important just pick the call" she whispered.
And I did
"Hey limah is sage, just calling to let you know that Zion had a car accident"
"And he is really in a critical Condition" he added in a sad voice.
"I would send you the address of the hospital okay"
With that he ended the call
I was completely stunned and speechless.
"Limah are you okay" I heard Angelina ask
"What happened" she added shaking me slightly.
"Zion" was all I could say.
