Chapter 30

I texted Asher saying that I wasn't feeling well and that I needed to cancel our date before I left school.

My mom picked me up from school and held me while I cried in her arms.

She's usually traveling, so the fact that she was here and is willing to stay a few days because of me makes me feel happy.

She immediately took me home without any words and placed me in my room.

"What's wrong, pumpkin?" She asks me as she hands me another carton of Ben and Jerry's ice cream

I accept the carton and start to eat out of it as I look at the blank wall and continue to play the conversation in my mind of the argument

The face he made before I walked away is currently haunting me.

I feel bad.

Even though he hurt me I feel like I was being a brat when I put all of the blame on him.

"It's nothing that ice cream won't fix" I say with a weak smile as my heart continues to hurt with every beat that it takes
