Chapter Six
Lizzie rang Gordo's doorbell. She knew Miranda was over there, because they'd planned to go to the movies all together.
"Hey, Lizzie." Gordo opened the door. "Uh . I don't mean to be rude, but why is your mom here? Are you going through another one of those "mother-daughter friendship" phases again? And . why are you crying?"
Miranda walked to the door.
"Hola, Lizzie. What's wrong?" She said, pausing to stare at her.
Lizzie's sobs broke her sentence into pieces, but it was understandabe to her best friends. "Gordo, Miranda * sob * I . my therapy * sob * didn't * sob * work. I . they . they're sending me to a boarding school." She sustained her tears, then started crying uncontrolably into her hands.
"For how long?" Miranda asked, her jaw dropping.
"Until she's cured. It could be from two months to two years." Her mother responded. "It's necessary."
Miranda hugged Lizzie, tears now falling from her eyes, too. Gordo was shocked. His eyes turned red and watery, but he made sure not a tear dropped. He stepped forward, and started to say something, but could find no words. He hugged Lizzie.
The three hugged and said goodbye for a whole hour, and Miranda and Gordo promised to write every day. Rules at the new school said Lizzie could only write twice a week, but she promised she'd take advantage of the time.
An hour later, in Lizzie's car
Lizzie looked out the window as salty drops left marks on her cheeks. Goodbye, Hilldridge. She looked at the photo in her hand. It was a picture of her, Miranda, Gordo, Matt, and her parents that had been taken when they'd eaten dinner together at the McGuire house. Beneath it was the class picture of eight grade. She looked at it, smiling slightly. Lizzie had kissed Gordo for the picture. Her mind laughed to remember that day, but nothing could make her laugh on such a horrid day.
The boarding school was an hour away. When they got there, Matt said goodbye to her first. Then Sam, then Jo. The last words she heard from her parents were "be strong."
