Episode 4.

When I woke up I heard loud knocks on the window of the car door with the gentle pitter-patter of the rain. The window was quite quite foggy so I rubbed it to find dad with an umbrella. Mom was standing at the door with a worried face. I got down from the car and dad handed me another umbrella. I only asked him," Please help me with my bags,dad...."."Sure go in I get them out alone.".

My eyes were red, burning hot. It seemed my temperature had risen. I looked pale and gloomy. After all that mom and dad hit me with sudden questions. Quite alot... I still kept quiet though I was getting a bit irritated. I suddenly said,"Let's talk about this in the morning!" with an angry tone then I went to my room and shut the door locked. I know it wasn't the right thing to do but there were so many things going in my head.

I threw myself on the bed trying to sleep but suddenly..... the memories of Andrew came up. The happy times, the times he helped out of sorrow and at last..... the thought of him cheating on me. I started crying again. It went on for long but as we can say..... I cried myself to sleep.

Next morning I woke at around 11 am. My head was heavy. I went to the bathroom to freshen up. I looked up in the mirror then made a decision,

'New day,fresh start'.

Then I gave a small smile over the thought. I realized many people with come and go leaving a crack in our heart but we can always fix it. Let's forget the past.( I know it seems cheesy but its for the story!)

I told myself,I will have a man by my side who will love me with his life sooner or later. I just have to wait. Time is the the only thing that is between me and him. Then I came out of my room. I saw both mom and dad in the garden spending time but they seemed.....off..... Oh! I remembered I had to give a good explanation to them about last night.

I went in the garden then it all went....this way....

I started putting my dramatic face on (hopefully no one makes me laugh). In a sorrowful way," hey mom...hey dad.. I wanted to say sorry for last night....of I mean how I acted. I am sorry....". Mom replied,"Oh it's ok sweetie. We knew you were upset and needed some time alone.... Why don't you come sit here with us and we can talk about it."."mhm" I replied back. As I was going there to sit ,mom said," And you can cut off that fake act!We know your acting it out and you are feeling better."."uhhh ok?" I admit that went bad and I need to practice on my acting skills. Later we discussed on what happened between me and Andrew. But I told mom and dad I forgave him and had started getting over him."Hailey! your going to forgive him just like that?" dad asked swiftly."I guess I am. He realized he isn't the right one and there is someone still waiting for me out there" I replied calmly."Fine then....it's your choice.....But if you need me to beat him up I am always ready!" my dad said with a feeling of a proud overprotective father. Mother was fine with it. I felt satisfied letting it out sharing to my parents. I coudn't have asked for better parents.......
