So by now, you should've realized that I write relatively shitty journal entries, but that's just me. I want to go over to Isaac's, but I feel that I'd be greatly intruding his privacy during his time of being really pissed and sad. I'm pissed too. I mean, it's like, how would you feel if the person you loved died? I'll tell you from firsthand experience that it really sucks.
My phone has been ringing constantly but I haven't checked who this mysterious caller is. It's ringing again. Obviously this person has absolutely no patience.
Me: Who is this and why must you incessantly call me?
Mom: Hazel! Come eat your lunch!
Me: I'm on the phone mom!
Caller: It's Isaac, you officially have my permission to come over to my place and play some more blind-person games, if you'd like.
Me: Sure, I'm coming over like right now. Mom, I'm going over to see Isaac! Bye Isaac.
I hang up the phone and go downstairs. It's really hot, so I've decided to go without a jacket. The hunger, oh, the hunger. I guess I'll just bring, like, an apple or something. Or there's always the much better-tasting option of a chocolate bar. I'm dying anyway, who's expecting my health to be perfect, anyway? I kiss my mom on the cheek before leaving. Good. Time to see my blind (and now best) friend. I literally have 2 friends. Literally. Like, more literal than support group being in the literal heart of Jesus. Yeah, it's that literal.
I get in the car, trying to get Phillip's wires to stop tangling themselves up so that I can successfully drive. Phillip is my fellow oxygen tank, also my only other friend besides Isaac. Sad, I know. Not even Kaitlyn or Bluie hang out with me anymore. Oh, teenagers, they can be so fickle sometimes. I turn my head towards the passenger seat and open my mouth to ask imaginary Augustus if he's buckled in, but that's weird, right? I guess when your significant other dies, they're never really dead to you. Ugh, my phone again. I barely even get halfway to Isaac's before its ring starts up.
Me: Yes, mom?
Mom: Your dad never got to say goodbye to you before you left, so I'm going to put him on the phone for you.
Dad: Hey honey, I just got home from work. How are things? You're not texting and driving, are you?
Me: Hi, dad. I'm alright, I guess. I don't have any friends to text, so that's a no. I have to go to Isaac's house now, so bye. Love you both.
I quickly shut my phone because my parents have recently become very overbearing. Cancer perk, right? Nope. It's never fun to constantly be checked in on by some creepy guy in a white hospital coat, or to be watched over by your parents practically 24/7.
Finally, I arrive at Isaac's house. I ring the doorbell a few times until he makes his way to the door and lets me in.
"Hey, I actually wanted to talk to you about something, so can the games wait?" Isaac asks immediately.
"Yeah, what's up?" I reply
"Well, um, I like, I um, I really don't know how to say this but…"
A/N: Hahaha I know I'm evil but at least I didn't kill anyone like some people (hint hint: Veronica Roth and John Green). Sorry about the cliffhanger but I try to update everyday so yay!
