Great, what was he doing here? Getting thrown out wasn’t good enough the first time I guess.
"Macy what the hell? I ran into Trevor down the road and he was talking about how worried he was about you and I get home and you didn't answer while I was calling for you. Do you have any idea how worried I was?! Do you even care?"
I glared at Trevor practically shooting daggers at him and he hung his head. "Halley can I talk to you privately, please?" I tapped my foot impatiently and she followed me. "I'm sorry." I shut the door and she just stared.
"What the hell happened with Trevor? He looks so upset."
"We had lunch." She was now gawking at me; I remembered that I never told her we were having lunch. "And I was having fun but it's all a mistake nothing can happen with us. I left and he followed me like a crazy person and I made him leave."
She opened her mouth to speak then stopped. She stared into my eyes. "I understand Macy but you have to open up eventually. How often do we have to have this talk? He looks crushed out there. What happened to you isn't fair to him. He really likes you."
" He doesn’t know me Halley. All he sees is my face, he doesn’t see anything else. Do you know what it's like, huh do you?" I glared at her daring her to tell me she understood because she knew as well as I did that she had no idea what it was like to have someone take everything from you.
"No I don't but you can't let it keep consuming your life."
Huffing and puffing, I glared at her, "Look if I talk to him will you leave me alone?"
"Yes, get dressed and then he can come in here and talk with you. I'm not saying tell him all your life's problems but just talk to him. Obviously you two have something brewing that you can't just leave alone."
We hugged then she walked out and before I could even get my robe off my eyes caught Trevor's. I motioned him in and said, "Please sit down."
Cautiously he sat and just looked at me. I owed him an apology and so much more. I never should have treated him like I did earlier and he actually came back. I opened my mouth to speak and my phone rang. Great, who was it and what did they want? My mom's name lit up the screen and I immediately hit ignore. A minute later it rang again, she was never this persistent but she was soon going to figure out that I didn't want to speak to her. Hell, she’d gone six months without talking to me, a few more minutes wasn't going to kill her. Not even two minutes later a text came through from my uncle that stated: “Answer her call please kiddo." I told myself I would only answer because Uncle Gary asked me to. Not even a few seconds later the phone rang again. What was the deal today?
Trevor looked at my phone then at me, “You going to get that?"
"Uh, yeah, uh sure hold on please, I'm so sorry." I stammered and fumbled to hit the talk button. My mom and I didn't talk much since I left. There was nothing to say. There was the occasional call here and there which most of them were ignored. She took her husband’s side over mine and refused to believe what he did. I had removed her from my life that day. She should have taken my side but instead she left me hurting inside, I honestly had nothing at all to say to her. "Hello,” I answered in a rather flat tone.
"Hey baby. How are you I miss you." She actually sounded sincere but I kept my guard up though. I couldn't fall for anything she said, I refused to. She was attempting a conversation with me as if nothing ever happened.
"I'm ok. Why do you keep calling?" I answered flatly. This conversation needed to end so I could handle the Trevor situation.
"Macy, baby, I know you've been hurting ,” she started sniffling and then continued, "I'm so sorry I never believed you before. I wanted to let you know that I left him. I never knew he was sneaking in your room all that time and I wish I had listened to you and stopped him before I lost you. I know it's probably too late to come back into your life and I
