No poor soul

The next day

Jamie's POV

I didn't pick up Angelica's calls because I didn't want to tell her what happened, I couldn't go to classes because I couldn't bare looking at him.

I just cried, there was nothing I could do, he wouldn't just forget and move on, he thinks I'm a disgusting përverţ.

he hates me and he'll never think about being with me or seeing me the way I see him.

My ringtone echoed from the background. I picked it up, "mom" it read.

I picked up the phone.

"Jamie, Angelica said you didn't pick her calls or answer her texts, what's wrong?"

" I'm sick"

" You really think I'll believe that Bullshiț" she said with a dark laugh at the end.

She asked me what was wrong again, but I didn't budge.

" Okay then, if you're gonna be stubborn you got two choices, either you come here or I drag you here"

"But-" the call ended.

I had no choice but to do what she said.

At Jamie's house.

I took a deep breath as I knocked on the wooden door of my cozy little home, usually there would be sounds of clattering and footsteps all around but the fact they weren't any meant that my dad and sister weren't here, and someone, not me, had pissed my mom off.

the door unlocked itself and I walked in shutting it behind me.

the room ahead was empty and the house didn't seem as warm as it used to be.

I walked up stairs and as I got closer to the end I saw a darkness creeping out of the abyss which was my parents room.

I walked in and saw my mom balled up in a corner, the darkness around her getting bigger.

" Mom ?" I called as I walked closer.

I reached my hand but she stood up and turned around while looking at me.

She looked like she had been crying, her eyes looked teary and her lips shook ever so slightly, she slumped back down with her knees up to her chest while continuing with her tears.

I sat next to her and looked around the room, darkness invaded every corner.

" What happened ?" I asked while shooting her a quick glance, she didn't look up and you couldn't see her face because her hair covered her face and drape over her knees which she cried in.

" It's that FŲCKING BĮTCH!, she thinks she can come here and do whatever the fuck she wants !" she yelled, looking exhausted with every word.

" What did she do this time ?" I asked.

"She-she t-took your sister, and I'm not sure if she'll bring her ba-ack" her cries intensified, her words shaky.

I wanted to ask when it happened but stopped myself, being a nosy detective wasn't my job today, I hugged her and let her cry in my shoulder for a while.

After a few minutes the darkness seemed to retreat back a bit, it was only surrounding us, she looked up and met my eyes, her's were puffy and sore from crying you could barely see the pink in them.

She got up from my shoulder and wiped her eyes rapidly, the last of the darkness disappearing as she smiled.

" So why were you sad earlier today ?" her voice was still weak.

I looked down, smiling as tears made their ways through.

"you remember Damien" I moved closer to her and we both just stared, she nodded.

"I messed up... he hates me now" she placed a hand on my shoulder and let me cry.

" I guess were both sad today" she said making me laugh even if I was in the middle of crying.

After a good amount of crying we realized we were hungry and went down to the living room, the last of the darkness left long ago.

As we talked about me and Damien for a while in the kitchen the door opened, it revealed my dad holding a sleeping Jasmine.

My mom ran to the door and moved Jasmine away from my dad's arms.

She fell on the floor and broke into crying again, but this time darkness didn't come.

" Where did you find her ?" mom asked.

my dad crouched down to her level and whispered something to her, in an instant the darkness appeared beneath her.

"That biţch"

My dad stood next to me and leaned against the wall.

"I don't think she's worth it" my mom calmed down, she stood up and gave Jasmine back to my dad, he took her upstairs.

" Where did she take her ?" I asked of curiosity.

my mom shook her head and sniffed," a place I wouldn't any poor soul to experience"

" Then why did she take Jasmine there ?"

" The less you know the better for all of us" I nodded, my mind still etched with curiosity.

" I think you should go" I didn't put up a fight and made my way to the door.

I turned the door knob and prepared myself to exit my warm house into the cold. It was October after all.

" Wait!" mom called out and I stopped.

"I know you're sad about Damien, but maybe he just wasn't the one" I didn't move or reply.

" I just want you to know, you can tell me stuff"

"Yeah"

At the dorms

I walked into my room and found Angelica sitting there with her legs crossed.

"You better have a goddamn good reason why you've been ignoring me" she said looking pissed.

"Nothing..."

"Nothing!, you locked yourself in your room for, nothing !. Oh, you are lucky that I have the spare key to your dorm" she stopped yelling when her phone on my nightstand beeped with a message, from scarlet.

She quickly grabbed her phone and loudly whispered the message to herself. 'It's Damien'.

She looked at me her expression completely changed.

" I'm so sorry" she said and gave me a hug, I returned it because I really needed another one.

She cupped my face in her hands," I know you won't listen, but, pls leave it"

" You won't either" we both laughed

She got her stuff and started to leave.

"Now go get some sleep, we have a competing to prepare for" she said as she left.

I fell asleep hoping I'd dream of him tonight.
