UNTIL I MET YOU : CHAPTER 11 – 20
” You’re grounded more. You’re not leaving this house and you’re not eating for the next five days.”
” Mom , dad.”
” Shut up , you…” My ringing phone stopped mother from talking. She looked at the dialer and glared at me. God let it not be him.
” It’s her boyfriend , Gray.” Mom scowl. Dad snatch the phone away from mom as he picked up , putting my phone on loud speaker.
” Ariel..” I heard his voice on the phone.
” This isn’t Ariel but her father. Now listen to me mister Gray , leave my daughter Ariel alone.
Stay away from her and let her be. You can’t just go about deceiving her and getting her in your bed. Leave her alone , you stupid useless American street rat.” Oh God.
Why are they making things hard for me. Gray might be a weird stranger to me but the worth of his house might even be my father’s entire income.
That’s not even important , he has successfully humiliated me on the phone with Gray. I feel like a stupid teenager even if I’m not one.
” Lemme make myself clear to you..” mom said on the phone.” She’s not your type of girl.
Ariel’s supposed to be in nun school serving and not following less ambitionless men like you. Keep your dick in your pants and leave her alone.
She’s a Christian and not meant to be used by hopeless hoodlums like you. Stop calling her.” Mom spit and smashed my phone on the wall.
” Mom…”
” Another word and I’m beating the hell out of you. Now to your room.” I sniffle and run back upstairs.
My life’s stupid. Most times I don’t expect all this from my parents. I felt like maybe I’m adopted.
That crazy party caused almost half of this. How could Leslie show mom my phone ? Does she hate me ? I wipe my eyes with the back of my hand and sit up to swallow my pills.
I really didn’t want Gray but apparently he’s gonna see me as a dweeb. A controlled freak.
” You look down.” Leslie said at the side of my door.
” You’ll be fine, sweetheart.” She smirks sarcastically .
” You should leave. You’ve finally let mom insult me to Gray. Worst is i even got slapped because of you.
Do you enjoy seeing me hurt ?” She shrugs and cross her arm.
” So who’s this unfortunate Gray ? What’s so attractive about you that made him take you home ?” I blink my eyes at Leslie’s hate speech.
It’s not her fault.
I’m not classy. I don’t wear skimpy dresses and nice crop tops. My wardrobe is filled with jeans and hoodie’s and sweaters and t-shirts and some type of dresses that classy girls doesn’t wear.
I can’t afford their expensive hair extensions like Alexa. I’m not like Leslie either , she’s almost like these models with super sexy movement and always on social media.
If my parents would ever allow a carefree life , then Leslie would be at a magazine shoot posing naked for the covers. She pretends too much.
” I bet he’s ugly , hmm.” She tease and raise her brows in disgust. Yeah , I’m too low for Gray. I see the convoy he caused by just sitting across me on that club.
His cars are expensive compared to my truck. He smells wealthy including his house.
I saw people’s eyes when I left the club with him even in my drunk state. What would he want from me ? I’m just this naive Christian , like he calls me.
” It’s none of your business.” I state looking far away from her.
” Yeah. Of course not.” She scoff and turn to leave.
I just can’t wait to start college , at least I’ll be far away from them. The only time they’re possibly gonna see me is after class. My parents made sure we don’t stay in campus or even around campus.
So we’re stuck with them. Or maybe I’m stuck with them. I wish I can make my own decisions just like Leslie , but I’m stuck with being a naive and controlled person . Too scared.
