Ch 4
Moments to remember
The day had slowly progressed into the afternoon, and finally she had been released. Paper work was signed and she was free to go and do...do what? She had nothing to do. Everything was done infact, she had phoned a close relative. An aunt at around 23 who had already been on her way. Kate had clambered into the car not wanting to start another conversation. She sighed, and Amber (the aunt) drove off in silence. There was nothing she could do for her neice except remain silent.
She tried starting something, "I talked to your parents," She said turning to her on a redlight, "They still want you to proceed in graduating." The thought left Kate speechless, how did they expect that much from her. Why? Why would thaey do that. Graduating right now felt like a big step closer to college. The college of her dreams, the college they had planned to go to together. Looks like another dream turned to crap. She gulped down, knowing it was the only thing she had to do. "Guess so," She mumbled looking out the windows with tears on her face. Her head rested against the window and she watched the passing cars. For a split second, just a split second she swore she had seen Jesses flowing black hair riding in the front of the Camaro she had owned. It was Jess, Markus, Sage and Drake sitting there and Kate was in the front with a smile. The memories, those were the days., When they were loud, obnoxious and fun. Those days were over
Well, those days were finished for her. They were finished for all them, except Kate. Yet that lingering feeling kept her on edge.
