my Missing Piece

Chapter 2

Apparently nothing came of the situation with the police, my
mom told them I got into a fight with someone and it was my
fault. She then headed to work which gave me a perfect
opportunity to get the rest of my things that I didn’t actually
think of packing. School books, note books, sketch books and
my electronics, my laptop and power banks and stuff.
The doorbell rang so I headed downstairs to be met by
crystal she was holding the suitcase I was going to be
borrowing for the trip to New York. I packed a bunch of
hoodies and sweats and jeans and baggy tops and shoes and
underwear and even a towel .I was uncertain of what our
living conditions were going to be and I’ve also never been
overseas or on an actual holiday so I really didn’t know much,
but I packed what I thought was necessary and yes I maybe I
did get help from Google.
What every girl needs when goings to boarding school!
Quite useful, I question why I needed cutlery and kitchen
things. For obvious reasons I didn’t pack it, I didn’t want to
get stopped at an airport because of a butter knife and all
this on my first time flying. I’ve seen a lot of movies okay.
We’re the millers being one of them.
I sat stood in front of my moms’ home office door
questioning where I should leave the note I’ve written or not.
I’ve decided to do it, as mean as she was, she at least deserves to know where I am, not like she’d actually care and
stuff. When I entered I questioned whether I want to take
the Wi-Fi with me or not, it’s fully paid for, for this month at
least. I ended up take the sim card only and left the note on
her desk right by her keyboard impossible not to see.
“Left to New York, might not come back or maybe I will who
knows. I’m glad that you get what you wanted for the next
three months .no Amelia Samuels to look after .PS: I took the
Wi-Fi sim card”
I grabbed my bags and left the front door locking behind me,
where I found crystal laying like a starfish on the grass
looking at the cloudless sky.
“Beautiful isn’t?” she asked as if we were looking at the same
thing or on the same page mentally. So naturally I asked
what?
“The cloudless sky, I don’t think it ever gets looked at when
no clouds are around. It basically reminds me of a lady. We
believe-” she was now army crawling to me on the side walk
She continued “that without makeup aka clouds we not
beautiful and will go unnoticed so we cover up” she gets up
in front of me and shrugs and proceeds to walk down the side walk with one of my bags leaving me in my tracks
looking at where she was once army crawling questioning my
life and how exactly we were friends.
“You coming?” she snapped me out of my thoughts she was
now further away the arse didn’t wait for me. I ran with the
suitcase catching up. We spoke about what we want to do
when we get there. I wanted to see the big ben she didn’t
want to seem like a tourist so the first thing she wanted to do
was crash her moms’ trailer and steal the very expensive
food. Which honestly sounded like a plan, I don’t usually eat
much. I believe it might be an eating disorder and I’m
genuinely trying.
We were met with jade that basically lives two doors away
from crystal. She looks like a hot mess. Like an actual mess,
but super-hot.
“Sup mama, you look horrible, hot but horrible. Horribly hot”
crystal spoke and again I question how we friends but I’m
snapped out of my thoughts when I get embraced in a tight
hug. When we pulled away jade was the first to speak…
“I’m going to miss you fools. You two might just be the
biggest idiots alive, but y'all were my idiots and now I need to
find new idiots to sit with at school”
“Aww baby, you’ll find people. Like what about June. We like
June. You could join her. Or you can finally stop making excuses and sit with your drama club. You’ll be fine well call,
and its only three months” I told her, giving her another hug.
Crystal made the beautiful moment awkward
“you guys look like creeps standing in the middle of a road
just hugging and lets not talk about be just standing her on
the side watching you guys and smiling with tears in my
eyes.”
We then pulled her in our hug too. We pulled away and then
made our way to crystals house. It was currently Friday so
jade decided she’s going to stay over so that we can have a
little girls’ day before we head out.
Now usually crystals mom would be out and about going to
clubs getting drunk and having a good time and we would
have the house to ourselves the entire weekend.well not
Sundays it was samanthas sober day. Or her day to get sober.
Today, however she decided to stay home get everything
packed and ready to go even though we only leaving at 3pm
tomorrow afternoon. Ive never seen her this organised or
stressed. Probably because its her first big abroad project.
She wouldn’t tell us what it is. Point is , her matureness was
freaking us out so we headed to jades house.Well now jades parents are always on business trips and it
was once herself, her grandma and her older brother max.
Now its just her and max.
Grandma Julie was the best. We just called her gran. She
would bake us all sorts of things and tell us stories, she
taught me how to knit and design and how to work a sewing
machine. She listened to all of our problems and gave great
advice. If it was about a boy it would always be the same
answer “fuck them” . Gran was ready the best and is truly
missed . she passed away two years ago as for jades brother
max…
His 18 and disgusting, he fully believes that his bieber haircut
is the coolest. Atleast his fit .well he should be he plays rugby
for his school. He is the worst always bullying us calling us
terrible nicknames and hugging us when his all sweaty and
just got back from the gym… but I guess that what you’ll get
when you grow up with the fool.
When we got there, he wasn’t there. Apparently he had a
game tonight. Which was good because that meant he’ll be
busy until 10 and then probably go to an after party and then
show up her at 12 or 1 in the morning if we lucky.
We ordered a plain cheese pizza with extra cheese and got
snacks from what crystal and I like to call the walk in closet
for snacks. Like the snack store room was twice the size of
my cupboard.We decided to watch our marvel comfort movie… guardians
of the galaxy. Well you see… it’s difficult to wrap our heads
around the fact that these movies are based on true events,
so we’d rather watch a movie that happens off our planet
than one that happened on it.
The night was well spent , we ate pizza and had snacks and
decided to call it a night.
So I let sleep consume me wondering what New York would
be like…..

wanted to be BUT im getting there so bear with me please.
