Ok, this can be so not true! I mean, I was talking to Catherine, my best friend, yesterday. And she couldn't just stop talking about her boyfriend, Paul. He just admitted his love to her a few days ago, and now she is all like being an expert when it comes to love. Maybe it's because she read too much Cosmo magazines of Lucy.
So then Catherine finally stopped talking about how Paul eat potatoes (He likes to eat the skin of the potatoe first and then he uses his fork to eat it completely, not too fast or he will have burn his mouth). So I had the idea she finally woke up, or better to say, that I woke up, and asked me about how it's going between me and David. I know Catherine for almost my whole life. I can't just lie to her, can I? But she could tell it to people, people who are so called 'nice' being to her, hoping that she will tell my secrets to them as the first ones.
I didn't know what to say. I really did not know. If I would tell, she might tell it to others. Even if I told her not to tell anyone. But since she is my best friend, I can't lie to her.
So I just said; 'It's going okay between us.'
I mean, what else could I have said?? Besides, it wasn't even lied. It is going okay between us... right? I didn't have a choice! I mean, I did, but for my own sake, it didn't... I think.
So Catherine went on and asked if there has happened anything more, lately. Between me and David, I mean. So I think I said that I had to go to clean Manet droppings again. Since Theresa thinks it's my responsibility to take care of the dog.
Yuck, dog droppings. Such a strange way to put it. Theresa doesn't want to hear the word 'shit' in this house ever again. Well, it's not her house, but since she takes care of us when we were... young, I guess she has the right to that.
So I told Catherine about that and then we hung up. I'm so glad she didn't went on to ask more about me and David. She can make it pretty tough for me, so far I can tell.
The next day at school was like hell. I had to remind Lucy about it everytime she is going to turn the subject about me and David - It's probably one of those 'hottest subjects' whatever Lucy is talking about. But it is quite annoying having people around your locker all the time, trying to catch a glimp of the pictures of David that I don't have in my locker. Luckily Lucy's locker is next to mine and Jack is everytime there to 'help' her with the books. Even Jack had to ask me about it. About David and me I mean. Gosh, everytime I pass by some students at school, I have to bear hearing the name David coming out of their mouths.
So I just told Jack;'It is going fine between us, now excuse me, I need to get to my locker. You are standing right against it.' Jack gave me a strange look and he was probably confused, because I'm never like that. Probably because I mostly am likely to tell him about.. stuff. So he didn't move an inch. I got the idea, and told him I had a bad day and the last thing I need is to everyone to know it.
That was the most stupid thing I did that day. That was something I was not supposed to say! I should have shut up about it!
I was incredibly lucky that Lucy was standing right next to him, because he looked even more confused to me, and went like; 'Is there something that I... ' He couldn't finish his sentence because Lucy dragged him with her.
Phew. In those kind of times it is good to have a sister. I'm glad no body but Lucy could have heard our conversation. Or else I would have been dead. Oh yes, literally dead.
It has been horrible at school so far I can remember, it was even worse when I saved the President by having a bullet going through his skull. Catherine always walks with me to home from school, and we were talking, about Paul, no wait, SHE was talking about Paul. Like I have no life to live. Actually, I don't.
But when I came home, my parent's told me David left me flowers to say goodbye. He went to my house earlier, but he couldn't find me. I guess. There were 100 roses. A 100 ROSES!! Even Lucy never had that much roses if you would count all of them up. He also left a letter for me, it said:
Dear Sam,
I'll be leaving this evening, at 9pm.
I looked at the clock. It was still on 5pm.
If I won't see you before the time that I will leave, I wish you a lot of luck with your life, and hope that you will do great and be happy.
And he was talking about my life? Geesh.. he probably didn't know what was going on in my head.
It breaks my heart to tell you this, but I will stay in England till I have finished my college. So I probably will be staying there for at least 5 years, if I won't kicked out. I'll visit my family every Thanksgiving, Christmas and in the summer vacation. Ofcourse I will visit you then.
What?! 5 years without him?!
Well, there's nothing more that I desire to say, except that I do still care about you, and take care.
David.
Great. Now I'm gonna even miss him more. Why did he had to go to England to college? What's wrong to study here? So I just took the metro to the White House to see him. I'm glad everyone let me in without asking who I was. I guess they recognised me after all those 'But I am Samantha Madison!'
When I reached the front door, David opened the door, all dressed and well. I gave him a huge hug. And he kissed me on the cheek. Then we went to his room, I helped him with packing stuff, which didn't took long because he did the most of it yesterday. So we were like talking after that.
'Sam, did you got my flowers?' he aksed me nervously.
'Yeah, they are lovely. Thank you.'
Then we went completely silent. It is definitely hard to think of things to say when someone is about to leave in a couple of hours. Definitely when you both are crushing on each other. So after the moment of silent, he took me to the place were we ate our first burger together, and showed me where he gouged my name into the wood. So I just, had to cry of happiness. Because he didn't forgot about that too. And he asked me;'Want another burger?' so I shrugged and reponded; ' Yeah, sure'
This time thr burger tasted better than ever.
