Smile pov.
"Have you seen Emma?". I asked, "yeah, she'll meet us at the car". Dylan replied, school is over, and I have a mixed feeling, should I go home, or should go out with my friends, today has just been complicated, I want to know what is going on with Emma and Summer, even my coach is part of all this, sigh, "what is wrong dude?". Dylan asked, "everything". I replied, "what are you talking about?". He asked, "David feels Summer is off, and Emma has been acting weird, even our coach, he acted like he cared about my feelings today, and he called me a boy, the last time I checked, he thinks my name makes me look weak, that's why he calls me Melchet, how is calling me a boy better?, Yeah, something is definitely wrong, he even let us skip practice today". I could finally breathe normally, I've been keeping this to myself for a long time.
"Relax Smile, David is just jealous, and Emma is probably still recovering, don't you think? And as for our coach, its probably about his daughter".  Dylan replied, I never thought  Emma would be recovering from that event, I was thinking too much, but I never knew this man had a daughter, "coach has a daughter? Since when?". I asked, "she's not our age, she could be six, or seven, and he is a single father". He replied,   "he is really happy he got his daughter back". He added, "I'm so confused right now Dylan, could be more understanding?". I said, "he got a divorce before he became our coach, and his wife got custody of his daughter, leaving him alone, and according to Benny, he hangs out with his daughter alot, and they were really close, but now his wife is dead, and he got his daughter back, and that's his only joy". He said, ok, that explains the reason for his hard heart, and it also explains why he has changed. But why is Benny oart of this conversation?, "Did you get this information from Benny?", I asked, "yeah, Benny told me". He replied, "how does he know about to this?". I asked, "I don't know, I think he is related to him". He replied, ok I'm done asking questions,
"Hey guys". It was Emma, and like always, she didn't look at me, "sup". Dylan replied, I guess. "So...., Where are we going?". She asked, then my phone tinged, meaning I have a message, I took it out, and saw David text, I don't remember giving him my number, he gave me his number, and how is his name saved to my phone?. Anyways, he said, "meet us in your house, we'll get our answer there". Ok, "we're going to my house ".
