When he checked the caller ID, he instantly regretted picking up. It was impolite to not pick up, so he did. "Ian Kabra, I'm coming over this weekend. You are going to show me all of your friends. You will find me a bar and a place to stay. I prefer being in your house.", said Ian's mom. Before Ian had a chance to answer, she hung up.
His phone rang again. Ian swore to himself that, if it was his mom he would scream. It was Cara.
"Hey, Ian.", said Cara.
"Hey, Cara", said Ian.
"Ian, I'm sorry that I have to tell you this, but...", said Cara.
"What is it Car?", asked Ian.
"I have to leave. I can't come back until Christmas. Tomorrow is my last day", said Cara.
"Why do you have to leave?"
"Family emergency. I'm sorry Ian. I'll miss you guys", said Cara sadly.
Ian hung up. He couldn't live without Cara, could he?
~At The Wizard House~ Jonah, dear, called his mom.
Yes, mom? asked Jonah.
Your father and I have to discuss something with you, she said while sweating heavily.
Jonah, you have to get married, said his dad.
Wait. What! said, Jonah.
Honey, we think that you're old enough. You need to have a lover. You are famous and rich, but single. We want you to have someone for yourself, explained his mom.
There has to be some catch here, right? asked Jonah.
No honey. This isn't a joke. We want you to die a happy, married man, said his mom.
Mom, I'll be happy without a wife! said Jonah, desperate to get out of marriage.
Son, at least it's not an arranged marriage, said his father.
You're right, dad, said, Jonah.
When am I supposed to propose? asked Jonah.
We want you to propose on Christmas, said his mom.
Ok, said Jonah.
~At Amy's house~ Ding Dong, went the doorbell.
Who is it? asked Amy.
It's J, said Jonah.
Ok, Mr. J, said Amy teasingly. She unlocked the door, and let Jonah in.
Amy, I have some shocking news for you, said Jonah.
What is it, is everyone ok? Amy asked frantically.
You won't be in a second, said Jonah.
What happened Jonah? asked Amy.
It's more of a, what will happen, Jonah replied.
Now, you're just avoiding my question. What happened Jonah? asked Amy.
I'm proposing to someone, said Jonah.
You're at tad bit young but, congratulations to you and that person, said Amy happily.
And... That person is you, Jonah said while staring at the floor.
What!? asked Amy with a hint of surprise, in her voice.
I want to marry you, said Jonah.
Okay then, said Amy. Is this a proposal?
No, it's not, Jonah replied. I'm going to propose to you on Christmas.
Why are you telling me? asked Amy.
I just wanted to let you know that everything is fine, said Jonah.
Why are you proposing? asked Amy.
My parents said I have to marry. I chose you because you're my friend, said Jonah.
Okay, I understand, said Amy.
Thanks for choosing me, said Amy.
You're welcome Amy, said Jonah, while giving her a big embrace.
Wait do we have to kiss? asked Amy.
I guess so, but we can handle it, said Jonah.
~The next day (Thanksgiving)~ I am thankful for you guys, said Cara. You are my family. I will miss you more than anything. I love you all.
Suddenly her phone rang and she had to go on the porch.
Ian followed her to the porch, while everyone else started to eat.
"Cara, you have to come home. Your mother needs you.", said her dad.
"I'll come home as soon as possible", Cara said then hung up.
When she turned around she saw Ian.
Ian, did you hear any of that conversation? asked Cara.
Just the last part, said Ian.
Are you wondering what's happening? asked Cara.
I am, Ms. Cara. It's rude to keep people waiting, said Ian.
My mom, she's pregnant. She needs me at home said, Cara.
I have to leave. Cara ran into the house and said her goodbyes, while Ian was on the porch.
When she came back on the porch she said, I'll miss you most of all, Ian. You are my best friend. If I don't come back, I need to tell you this first. I love you, Ian Kabra and I always will. She kissed him on the lips and went to her car. She waved goodbye and drove away. Ian left too. He went to his apartment and pondered alone.
He picked up his book 'Fahrenheit 451 and read."
Well, that's Chapter 2 guys. I finished, finally. What will happen to Cara, in chapter 3? Christmas will come in chapter 4. Spoiler: Cara won't be back by Christmas or New Year's Eve. Where is she? That's my chapter. SINCE GOOGLE IS GLITCHING I PROBABLY WON'T BE ABLE TO UPLOAD THE CHAPTER WHEN I WANT TO. I haabe to do the start of chapter 3 today because I didn't yesterday. Bye!
