Chapter Two - Empty Heart ((this is gonna be a really short chapter))
"Miss Allende?" I jerked my head up when I heard my name being called. I grimaced when I saw it was Mr. Falworth. I had been dozing off, not able to concentrate at all that morning, and just scribbling absentmindedly on my homework.
"Yes?" I asked groggily. I rubbed my forehead and closed my eyes for a few seconds.
"Miss Allende," Mr. Falworth repeated. I hated when he did that. "You are just not with us today. This is twice in only two weeks. What has gotten into you? I dare say you are bored? I will have to ask you to leave, Miss Allende."
I glared at him. I hated him so much, I loathed him. Sighing, I gathered my books and walked out of the classroom, fully aware of everyone's eyes on me.
I wasn't going to the principal's office. Not today. I couldn't' concentrate today. I wandered out into the courtyard and took a seat on a vacant bench. First period had just started, so I wasn't worried about being disturbed.
My mother was gone when I woke up this morning, before school. That's why I couldn't concentrate. She always did this: she would disappear for days, then show up as if nothing was wrong. Some people wondered if I even had a mother; she never showed up at parent-teacher conferences.
I was ashamed. My mother was so beautiful, I wanted to be just like her. She was a little taller than me, with long unnaturally straight hair with a beautiful frosting. She was thin, and currently eight months pregnant with my little sister. But it's funny, because I don't have a father that I know of, and my mother doesn't have a boyfriend. So I wonder where she could get pregnant? I felt my eyes welled up in tears as I thought my mother a tramp.
I didn't even know my own mother. She was so mysterious, so different. My mother was an artist, and always got lost in her paintings or sculptures or murals. Our house was full of empty paint bottles, canvases, exotic sculptures. No wonder I didn't have a friend; they thought my mother was a wierdo.
I found myself crying silently on the bench in the courtyard. I was so hurt from my mother not being in my life, I was lost. I didn't have anyone to talk to, anyone to share my feelings with. It hurt so bad, to not be able to talk to my own mother.
I felt a presence and looked up into the eyes of Chris. I was so startled, I couldn't speak. I quickly wiped away my tears from my face, and felt embarrassed.
"Are you okay?" he asked me, sitting down beside me. Why would he want to know?
"You should be in class," I informed him, not knowing what else to say. "Falworth is gonna be pissed at you."
He shrugged. "I don't care. I saw how hurt you looked, and felt bad."
I looked at him and blinked. This was just too strange. I knew this guy all my life, and not once did he offer anything toward me, and now, all of a sudden?
"Why do you care all of a sudden?" I heard myself say, getting really annoyed.
Chris looked taken aback. "Whaddya mean?"
I shook my head. "Never mind." I was in a bad mood already and I didn't want it to get worse.
"So," he said. "Whatcha doing today?"
I looked away, up to the sky. "Nothing." My mother was gone, and I wanted to be home when she finally arrived. I needed to be there, so she didn't become worried. That's funny, I don't think she would care, but she was my mother, and regardless, I loved her.
"You wanna come with me and Gordie? We know this really cool place, where around sunset it looks so cool."
I grinned at him. What the hell? Why not? Fuck my mother.
"Sure."
He grinned back at me. "Be ready at like six."
I nodded. The bell rang for second period, and I walked away.
