Phone calls from parents

Clara Clarice Martin Wilson

the last few day i spent with rose or with Charles actually, he is really nice and sweet and not like i thought he would be

i was with Charles having lunch when my phone goes off, i looked at the ID and saw it was my dad and i disclinde it

Charles saw i disclinde my dad and looked at me confused

"why didn't you pick up?" he asked me

"because then i have to go home and they are mad that i'm here" i say "actually i have to be in Canada at law school that i hate and being bored" i added and he nod

"why do you hate it so much?" he asked me, we didn't went into the personally questions so i was first a little confused

"my parents are both good- very good and successfully lawyers and they want me to be like them, they already planed my whole future for me sinds i was like born" i say

"what do you wanne do? if you could choose?" he asked and i look at him

"something with art, i like painting and drawing sinds i was young and i really like it, but my parents saw it always as a hobby for me and where like 'you cant make money out of this and you will never be successful' like that" i say my phone went off again and this time it was my mom and i disclinde again 'its rude i know but if i pick up they forse me to come home' i think in my head

Charles gives me a weak smile like he feels for me

"lets not think about your parents and your life lets have fun and don't think about that" Charles says and i smile

"sound like a great plan" i say and he smiles

We walk over the beach together until Charles picks me up and spins me around and I laugh

"Charles!" I say and I laugh and he put me down and I look him in the eyes

"I really like spending time with you" he says and I smile

"I really like spending time with you too" I say we stare at each other for a few minutes

Charles took a step little closer to me and he started a little to learn in and looked at my lips and back in my eyes

I did the same and we both learn in our lips almost where almost touching when my phone went off and I groaned when I saw it where my parents again

"You really have to pick up ones" Charles says and he looks at me

"Yea maybe that is better" I say and he taps on the green button on my phone and I mouth to him 'Charles why' and I hear my dads voice

"Hi dad" I say

"Clara where are you? Your not home not on school not with your friends where are you we are mad and sick worried about you" I hear him saying trying to not get mad

"I'm in Greece the Mykonos" I say

"Your where?! Clara come home why would you go there? You don't know how mad we are at you right now" he says and I just got tired of feeling the 15 year old

"And you don't know how it feels like feeling like a 15 year old while I'm
Actually 21, dad I'm an adult and I don't want to be controlled by you guys anymore" I say and my dad says for a few seconds nothing , I never talked to them again and I don't know how I got the courage to talk to them like that knowing my mom is also with him

"You know what we talk when you come back have a nice vacation Clara" he says mad and hangs up

'Wel that was a good phone call' I say sarcastic in my head and I walk to Charles who gave me a little privacy while I called with my dad

"And?" He asked me

"They are mad but they talk with me when I come back" I say

I saw at Clara that it wasn't really a phone call that she liked

For the rest of the day we sat on the beach and in the evening we wanted to go to a club but we where both not really in the mood so we ended up watching a movie at her hotel where I also stayed at, Pierre did went to the club and called me late in the evening drunk and me and Clara both laughed our asses off because of how tiny that was

We didn't talk about the almost kiss what happened today
