So hereÕs the next chapter. Hope you enjoy it. By the way just to clear some confusion. This story is about the gangsÕ experiences in high school.
Ross absentmindedly discarded is heavy backpack on the center desk in the living room and hastily made his way to the kitchen.
He had skipped golf practice today do to the sudden illness in his stomach. Well not actually skipped. He had told the coach.
He tugged open the large refrigerator and popped open a can of orange soda, greedily gulping it down to a hollow can.
Upon closing the fridge, he noticed a yellow sticky note placed awkwardly on the door. Ripping it off, he read it:
I AM GOING TO HAVE A LONG NIGHT TONIGHT. HEREÕS 20 BUCKS FOR PIZZA. HAVE A GOOD NIGHT. LOVE YOU. MOM.
This had been a usual occurrence as of late. Judy had just received a promotion in advertising sells and it initialed long nights in the city.
Ross rolled his eyes at the sticky note and tossed it in the trash.
She doesnÕt have to keep leaving these notes, he thought. It had become almost a convenience for him. Since Jack was always out of town on business and his mom working long nights in the city, it gave him the freedom to think and pass the hours with studying and college scholarships.
But most of all it gave him some peace.
Pushing up his prescription glasses, he rubbed the bridge of his nose soothingly. Feeling exhaustion once again take over his body, he retired to his room.
Beep, beep, beep.
His alarm blared, getting increasingly louder with each beep.
He had set his alarm for 4:30 so he could pick up Monica and Rachel at cheer leading practice.
He was debating not going and leaving her there.
That would teach her.
But he knew she would tell Mom and Dad. And then he would be in deep trouble.
Plus he knew he could never let his sister hanging. He would always be connected to her and that meant a lot.
Even though he sometimes felt like she was the most annoying and bossy person in the world. Deep down, he loved her more than anyone in the world.
And he always would. No matter what.
He would find out this love would be tested in the near future.
To Be Continued.
I will leave you there. This is going to turn into a romance, suspense, thriller story. I hope you like it.
