Phil's P.O.V.
Zoë had glared at me for a few minutes. I went inside to get some water and told her just a minute .If she insisted on glaring at me silently I might was well not get dehydrated while she does it. When I came back strangely the anger was gone as quick as it came. "Phil sorry -" She was cut off by Keely coming up, looking strange. She looked upset. She wasn't smiling like usual.
"Phil, I need to talk to you." Keely said quickly. " O.K. Zoë I'm sorry but I'll talk to you later- " " Phil! " Zoë cried out " We still need to talk! " " Zoë later O.K.? " I said firmly despite her tentatively saying " Phil are you sure? " I grabbed Keely's hand and pulled her and we walked to the tennis court. The place we always hung out and talked. And of course play tennis.
My thing when I'm mad is I smash walnuts, I think I might make Keely's thing is to play tennis it's got so many memories for us. She likes it so much and it can get energy out I think it's good for her so partly why I'm bringing her here.
" So Keely what happened?" I asked as we sat down on a bench." Phil if you have to go talk to Zoë talk to her. " She said. I looked at her and said quietly " Her and I have had our talking a while ago. Again I'm sorry I didn't tell you before about us but anyways..." "Phil it's O.K. you already apologized and you didn't even had to tell me that stuff. " She said.
"Why not? You're my friend Keely I had to let you know. I didn't want you to freak out thinking I'm going to leave you or something- " I said quickly " You might leave?" Keely cried in disbelief and any bit of happiness left in her gone. " I don't know Keel. I'm not sure. I know you don't need this now so you need to talk." I replied.
"Phil what I think I need is a good scream in a pillow a slight vent and some bonding time, so for the 1st could you wizard me up a pillow? " She asked waiting. " Well let's see ... " I said with a smile. "I think I can do better then that. "
I looked around to make sure no one was watching. I used my wizard to bring the replicated pillow She had been joking around with it in her room and had replicated her purple and green paisley pillow .It came in handy after all.After she had her scream she said she felt better and that it even SMELLED like her pillow so I guess that's a good sign. " That's weird. " I said sarcastically. " Hey it's comforting!" She retorted.
I smiled and grinned "Really?" I grabbed it and whiffed it and pretended to gag " Perfume overload... " I pretended to choke out. She grabbed the pillow laughing and whacked me with it and I took it back after a minute and I used the wizard on it again to get rid of it.
So then started the venting. " Well I just went to go home to grab something for homework I had forgotten and my dad was there. He talked to me said he was sorry for not being the best dad and wants to do better. I told him I had heard it before." Keely paused for a minute then went on
"And he said he had hoped that bringing Zoë here had proved he could do better or something and I got mad .I said I didn't think him bringing a strange girl here and not just leaving her here and going to take her back is much proof he'll do better. He would have continued but I told him to save it and left. "
"Wow Keely. That's hard I don't know what much to say, but I'm sorry." I said after an awkward pause. " Yeah. I just don't get the Zoë thing." Keely said with frustration in her voice. " Yeah." I replied and hugged her. "But you know what, your dad's missed out on having a great life with you and your mom. " I said quietly.
She smiled and hugged me back. After that we played tennis for a while having a lot of fun and when we were walking back I said, " You wanna stay for dinner Keely? " I asked hopefully. "No I need to finish my homework and I don't want mom to worry so. " Keely trailed off and smiled and continued, " I'll see you later Philly Willy! " She said playfully. " Keels... " I warned. She grinned and went to her house I smiled thinking about our day as I went to mine.
