Patrick came after me.
- Zoey please listen to me - he said
- Let me call my mom
- What? Are u going to leave? - he asked surprised
I looked at him.
We walked to his house in silence. I was trying not to cry but it was imposible. We arrived and I called with his house telephone.
My mom answered the call.
- Hello? - she said as an answer
- Mom, I'm Zoey - I told her - Can u come pick me up?
- Why? - she asked
- Um.... because I completely forgot I have an exam on Monday so I have to study - I lied
- Oh, Okay - she said - I'll be there in about an hour
- Okay, Bye - I hang up
Patrick was looking at me. I ignored him, packed up my things and went outside the house. He followed me.
- Zoey - he said - I'm sorry, I'm really sorry about everything
I turned to see him.
- U are sorry? - I said - Leave me alone Patrick
I left and went to wait my mom at the street.
Patrick's POV
I got in home and closed the door. I felt some tears were rolling down my cheeks, I had never cried for a girl before. I was an asshole.
Zoey's POV
My mom finally arrived. I got in the car.
- Zoey- she said - Are u crying?
I dried my tears.
- I'm sad because of leaving Patrick - I told her
She smiled.
- Don't worry, u'll see him next week - she said
"Yeah".
We went home. I was feeling so sad, so stupid.
- Zoey - she said - I have done something for u
I looked at her.
- What? - I asked
- I've got u a job as a waitress- she said
- Are u kidding me? - I said - When?
- Zoey! U have to start earning your own money - she said - U'll go there to talk about schedules
I rolled my eyes.
- Okay- I finally said
We arrived home. We got out of the car.
- Now, go to the bar - my mom said - I'll unpack your things
I nodded.
I started to walk to the bar. I arrived there. There was a girl in the bar counter, she smiled to me.
- Hi - she said - Can I help u with something?
I talked with her for a while.
- Okay, So u start on Monday - she smiled to me
I nodded and left. I went home.
- And at what time at u working? - mom asked while we were having dinner
- Mondays and Wednesdays on afternoons , and Saturdays all day - I explained
She smiled.
-I'm proud of you - she said
I smiled.
I went to sleep. I was so sad about What Patrick did that I can't not even explain it. I fell asleep.
11 am
I woke up. Nobody was home.
That day Emma and Olivia came home to spend the day with me.
- So now u are a waitress? - laughed Olivia
- Shut up! - I yelled to her
She laughed even harder.
- Zoey - said Emma - u were not supposed to spend the weekend with Patrick?
I looked down.
-What happens? - asked Olivia
- He cheated on me - I said
I started crying.
- HE DID WHAT? - yelled Olivia with her mouth full of food
- He ..... he cheated on me - I repeated with tears in my eyes
They hugged me.
- U'll find someone way better - told me Emma
- I won't - I said - He is the perfect one for me
8am
I woke up. I was sad, again. I had breakfast and walked to school.
Lunchtime
- How are u? - asked Olivia
I looked at her and tried to smile.
- I'm fine -I told her
Henry, Vic and Belch sat on our table.
- Hi girls! - said a really happy Henry
- Hi Henry - said Emma
I was looking down.
- Zoey - told me Henry while everyone else was talking - Are u Okay?
I looked at him.
- Yes - I said
The day ended and Henry was waiting for me.
- I can't stay with u - I said - I have to go to work
He looked at me.
- I accompany u - he said walking by my side
- Don't worry - I told him
- Zoey - he stopped and looked at me - Tell me what's wrong
Without wanting it, I started crying again.
I told him what happened.
- I heard something about it - he told me - but just....don't think too much about it
I arrived to the bar and started to work.
The months went passing by and the spring arrived. Patrick called me almost everyday, till he got tired. "I'm sure she has found another one" I thought. It was a rainy Saturday night, I was working in the bar.
Henry's POV
Patrick, Belch and I were laying on the sofa.
- I miss her - said Patrick - so much
I looked at him.
-Then go talk to her - I proposed
- But It's been two months- he said
- And? She miss u too - said Belch - she told me the other day that she miss u but she is still angry
- Of course she is still angry idiot - said Patrick - Where Can I found her? - he asked to me
- In the bar where she works - I said
I told him where the bar was and he headed there.
Patrick's POV
It was raining a lot, but I didn't care because the only thing I wanted was to see her. To hear her voice again, to see her smile again.
Zoey's POV
- Zoey - said Ava, my "boss" - Come here
I walked to where she was.
- U can leave - she told me - enough for today
- Really? - I said surprised
She smiled and nodded.
- Thank u - I smiled
I took off the bar clothes and dressed with my own ones. I called Emma form the bar's telephone to meet her and Olivia that night. I was about to leave when Sally stopped me.
- Have fun this night - she smiled
- Thanks - I smiled back - U too
She laughed.
- Oh, by the way- she said - I think there's someone who wants to see u
I looked across the bar and...... oh SHIT. That was unexpected at all. Patrick was standing there, with his wet hair and clothes.
- What is he doing here? - I asked to Sally
She shrugged.
I was not in the mood to talk with him. "No, not now" I thought.
I decided just to ignore him, so I started to walk to the bar door when he looked at me. He smiled. I didn't. I continued walking. When I was getting closer to him he started talking.
- Zoey - he said - I've missed u so....
He stopped when he saw I was not heading to him. I opened the door and left,
Patrick's POV
She completely ignored me.
