Thursday
"Really, Marissa," my mom whined at me, "I don't know why you insist on acting like this."
"Like what?" I snapped back.
"Like this, why can'tyou be more helpful around here? Now I asked you which paint do you think wold look the best in the master bedroom?"
"Mom, ya know what? I could give a shit waht color paint si in your room! I'm so miserable here."
"You're the one who wanted to live here. If you don't like it then leave."
"No, mom that's what I had to tell you."
"What?" she asked me annoyed and confused.
"Caleb told me he would go back on his business deal with Dad and Sandy if I didn't agree to live here."
"Marissa...." My mom looked shocked,"I can't beleive you would say such a thing about Caleb. Ya know what. If you're gonna act like that in this house and try to sabotage my marriage I want you out of here. Go stay at Summer's or something. I want you out by tomorrow night. Are we clear?"
"Mom?," I asked.
"What?" she sneered.
"Fuck you."
And with that I walked up to my room and stayed there all night. I packed most of my things into my suitcases and loaded it into my car once everyone was asleep. I went back in the house and took my mom's wallet out of her purse. I took one of her many Visas and about $1,000 in cash out of her wallet, plus her bank card. I grabbed my car keys, took one last look at the house and left.
I drove to a nearby hotel and checked into a room. I drifted off to sleep wathcing a random TV movie. All my thoughts were of Ryan and how good it would be to be in his arms again.
