Carlin House
Ashley's POV
Spencer led me down the stairs and I was confused until I saw what she had set up.
Ashley: "Aw, Spence. Thank you! You're sweet."
Spencer: "You're welcome. I know it's not much but-"
Ashley: "It's perfect. Honestly."
We end up mixing a few different kinds of cereal together. It tasted awesome. We were almost done eating when I heard the front door open. I look back and see Glen and Clay come through the door. Clay walks up stairs and Glen walks into the kitchen. He starts to say something but I hear my phone ring upstairs. I get up and run up the stairs into Spencer's room to get it.
Ashley: "Hello?"
Caller: "Hello Ashley."
Ashley: "Mom, what do you want?"
Ashley's Mom: "Don't give me attitude, dear."
Ashley: "Mom! I got arrested because of you!"
I hear footsteps coming up the stairs and down the hall, along with commotion coming from Glen. I tell my mother to hold on and I walk outside to the bench in the Carlin's front yard. I sit down and start talking again into the phone.
Ashley: "Okay, what do you want?"
Ashley's Mom: "Well, I just heard from your father's manager..."
Beep.
Ashley: "Hold on, someone's beeping in."
I look down at my cellphone and I don't recognize the number but I take the call anyway.
Ashley: "Hello?"
Caller: "Is this Ashley Davies?"
Ashley: "Yes. Who is this?"
Caller: "Ashley, this is Don. I'm your dad's manager."
Ashley: "Oh. Uhm, hi Don."
Don: "Uh, yeah. I don't have a lot of time. I suppose I'm responsible for telling you that your father's viewing is today. And if you plan to attend we will arrange transportation."
Ashley: "What time does it start?"
Don: "Oh. An hour ago."
Ashley: "WHAT?!"
Don: "So-"
Ashley: "My dad's viewing started an hour ago and you just now call to tell me?!"
Don: "Miss-"
Ashley: "What in the HELL is wrong with you?!"
