Chapter 4
The rest of the day flew by. I got calls and visits from people welcoming me home. There wasn't a single thing wrong with the day. Except for Miranda acting weird on the phone. What was with her? Just be careful, her words echoed in my mind over and over again. Just be careful. Be careful of what? I tried to put it out of my mind but couldn't. So there I was lying in my bed wondering what she was talking about.

"Miranda, over here!" I called. It was the next day at the movie theater. She walked over with the popcorn and sodas to the seats I had been saving. I was only saving two in stead of three because Lizzie couldn't come.
"Ok, I got your coke, my sprite, and a large extra-butter popcorn," she said sitting down next to me.
"Good, I am so hungry." As we settled in Miranda gasped.
"Oh my gosh!"
"What? What is it Miranda?"
"Nothing, nothing at all."
"Miranda! What's with all the pretending that there's nothing going on when there really is. I mean, yesterday on the phone you started to tell me something and then didn't, which by the way kept me up until eleven o'clock last night trying to figure out what it was. And now today, you are obviously surprised by something and refuse to tell me."
"Believe me Gordo, you don't want to know."
"Yes I do!"
"Ok, just remember the saying, don't kill the messenger."
"Where are you going with this?" I said impatiently. "Hey hold on, isn't that Lizzie?" I said confused. "Oh my gosh! It is!!! And isn't that, isn't that ^Ronnie^?!" Suddenly, the realization of what Miranda was trying to tell me, sunk in. Lizzie, was…
"Gordo, please don't make a big scene. Let's just get over it for now, and after we can talk to Lizzie. You know after you calm down. Because at the moment you look like you are ready to rip off his head."
"Really, I was actually thinking more along the lines of tearing him limb from limb ^then^ ripping off his head."
"Gordo, remember, you are in a public place, Lizzie would probably never speak to you again if you did that, and they have security here!"
"Your right. I should calm down before I do anything. My parents have this one client who beat up on his girlfriends new boyfriend, went to jail, then was forced to take counseling. Sounds like my future if I go over there right now."
"Good I talked some sense into you," Miranda said breathing a sigh of relief.
"I'm going home. You can stay if you want…"
"No, I'm coming with you. You shouldn't be alone right now. You need someone to talk to. And you also want an explanation about now of what went on while you were gone."
