The secret

Chapter 15

Joel's POV

Zabdiel: She said she doesn't want to talk to you so let her go! -Zabdiel said stopping me from running after Liz-

Joel: I just want to let her know how sorry I am! -I replied-

Zabdiel: No bro! What happened thought? I was really routing for you and you just ended up giving my sis more pain that what she was already in. Do you have any idea how much she has gone through in the past few months? The depression and having to hear her cry at night! You're such an ass! -He said with more of a disappointed face than angry-

Joel: Yes I know! Look I know I am! You don't have to remind me ok! I am an ass! I just want to apologize.

Zabdiel: Really? That's it? Just apologize? You stood her up at a coffee shop for an hour and a half without even a text or a call to go out on a date with another girl! Do you not know how selfish and messed up that sounds?! You better have a good danm explanation for that! Like... you know what! I don't want to know. I don't want to hear it. Just leave my sis alone! - He said a he walked away-

I could feel tears coming but I holded it in. No one knew my sensitive side except Liz, Chris and Yoyo. I think I should just keep it that way.

I walked to class and looked around the room for Liz. She was sitting in her desk writing on her journal. And no it wasn't like a diary. It's a notebook she carries around the school where she writes stories and she is a good danm writer as well. She has let me read one before and it was just amazing! As I was walking towards her someone stopped me and stood in my way. It was Veronica.

Veronica: Don't you even dare! -She gave me a stare that I've only seen before once in 6th grade when I accidentally hit her in the noice with a football. It was death stare- Look you better have a good ass explanations! Please tell me you do or else I will kick your ass! And you know that I can.

Joel: Veronica! Just let me talk to her! Please! I actually have an explanation! It's not a good one but I have one!

Veronica: Look Joel... I love you and you're my best friend but not now. Just leave her alone just for today. Maybe you can talk to her tomorrow and she'll forgive you. I will tell you one thing though, I won't forgive you until she does because that was some shitty stuff that you did!

Joel: Yea I know. Alright I won't!

I went to my seat and got my stuff ready for class. The rest of the day went by slow and it was time for lunch. I was hoping to see Liz because with just looking at her, my whole day changes. She makes me so happy! I went to my lunch table and she wasn't there. Everyone was. Zabdiel was sort of ignoring and so were the girls so I asked Richard where Liz was and he told me he didn't know. After I ate I decided to go look for her. Maybe I can apologize, I know I told Veronica that I will wait till tomorrow to make this right but I just can't! I need her to know that I am so truly sorry! So I started to look around the school. I even looked outside and she was no where to be found. There was one place that I didn't check though and it was the library. I walked in and started to look around for her and I spotted her sitting down against a bookshelf, writing on her journal. I was gonna go up to her but I just couldn't. She looked so peaceful writing and I knew my presence would make her upset so I just couldn't. I turned around and walked back to the lunch room.

The day was finally over and it was probably the longest day ever. I got home and I threw my myself to the bed. A few minutes later I heard someone knock. It was my mom.

Mom: Hi baby! Are you ok? Gabo me dijo que te vio un poco triste. What's wrong?

Joel: I did have a date last night mom! I did and thanks to my stupid broken phone I messed up everything! She was the girl mom, THE girl! - I said with a really upset tone-

Mom: What? Ayy mijo- she said putting her hand on her mouth- I'm sorry! I didn't know! I though it was just some excuse to not go out with Brianna.

Joel: Mom it's alright! I should've done more to make sure she knew I wasn't gonna be there! Soy un idiota! -I said as I hit my head and lowered it in shame-

Mom: JOEL PIMENTEL, NO QUIERO VOLVERTE A ESCUCHAR DECIR ESO! You made a mistake! Everyone does it. You're human and you learned something from this. Now if that girl really likes you then she will forgive you! But you also have to do whatever you can to let her know how sorry you are! Alright, mijo?

Joel: Yes, tienes razón! Thanks for the advise mom! I think I have an idea. -I gave her a kiss on the cheek and headed out the door.

I wanted to let her know how sorry I was. I had something in mind that she can't resist and will hopefully help me win her back. I drove to the store and picked up a few things. Then I drove to her house. I got out of the car and knocked on her door. A few seconds later she opened it and there I was standing outside her door with some roses, a Hawaiian pizza, her favorite ice cream and a few Hershey bars. Everything that he loves and can't resist.
