Okay guys I ADDED!! I'm so proud of my self!! Sorry for the shortness of it though.
Explanation as to why I haven't added in almost a month: English and the flu. I got the flu. It sucked. My English teacher gave us a paper to write over a poet. Me and poetry don't mix so well, despite what my previous teacher said about mine being so deep and wonderful. Apparently she was looking into what I was writing more than I was. But on with it--and now I'm on Spring break. And my lovely teacher has given us a project, of course. It consists of: reading a book, writing a 3-page-minimum-paper, and answering about 50 questions each which take up about a half a page at least to even anwer the bloody things. But that is my reasoning. Plus I shall be without internet from Friday to Monday. So I won't be able to add then. I'm going down to Mississippi to visit family. The drive is 6 hours one-way, so I should definately get some writing done. So hopefully an add next Tuesday.
Here are the songs from the titles of the last 2 chapters and this one:
Chapter 8: The Heart Never Lies / McFly
Chapter 9: Floods / Fightstar
Chapter 10: Walk In the Sun / McFly
Chapter 9
When she got down to the kitchen she noticed that small would be a major understatement to describe how huge this lunch was.
"Do you guys always eat this much for lunch?" Jenah asked trying to not make it sound rude, she was just curious.
"Not usually dear," Denise replied.
"It's Easter," Nick said with a look of annoyance on his face.
So much for trying to not make it sound rude.
"It is?" she asked confused.
"Yeah it is. Don't you celebrate Easter at your house?" Kevin asked.
"Not since my mom died, no," Jenah replied looking at the ground.
"Ah well come on, sit down," said Kevin Sr.
Jenah took the only seat that wasn't occupied—between Joe and Kevin. After sitting they all went to hold hands again to say the blessing. She tried to avoid it like the night before but both boys grabbed her hands.
"You don't have to say it for it to be heard, Jen," Kevin whispered in her ear after seeing the confused look on her face.
Yeah right.
She said nothing nor did she bow her head or close her eyes. Faith was something that was hard for her to believe in after all that had happened to her. Then a realization donned on her—her father's funeral was tomorrow. She remained silent inside her thought—which right now was a very scary and unsafe place to be.
"Aren't you going to eat something?"
"Um…sorry what did you say?" Jenah questioned.
"I said aren't you going to eat anything, dear?" Denise questioned with a caring look on her face. A look that Jenah wished hadn't been present.
"Oh, yeah."
After breakfast was done, Jenah helped to clear all of the plates and clean the kitchen. Once that was done she dismissed herself back to her room. Of all weekends for her father's funeral to be after it hadto be Easter weekend. The very exact weekend that her mother's funeral was after, and also the weekend that her father had met the horrible Meagan a year later. This weekend which she hated because bad things always followed it for her. A knock at the door tore her from her thoughts.
"Hey," he said softly.
"Hi."
"I was wondering if you were okay. You were all happy before we went downstairs for breakfast, and then once we got down there you became all sad again."
"I'm fine. I just realized that my dad's funeral is tomorrow."
"Oh, I'm sorry," he made the move to hug her, but she backed away.
"Sorry," she responded.
"It's okay. Um…so what do you say to a day out?"
"What exactly includes this day out?"
"Oh…now that, my lady, if for me to know and for you to find out once we come upon it," he said trying his best to pull off a posh British accent.
