just then my cell phone rang. "is it him, is it joe can i talk to him?" i gave her a look. "no you canno talk to him! i've had enough i am going home!!" i screamed. and ran out the door in tears. i picked up the phone through sobs "what!?" "Maggie, no no Maggie, whats wronge?" it was him."er uhm its nothing." i pushed the door to my house open. "oh Maggie hi sweetie, so i was thinking we could maybe go shopping or something." "cant you see im on the phone!!" i yelled at her. "joe its nothing i'll be ok i promise." "uhm you just yelled at somebody, you dont sound ok and you were crying." "no i wasnt i was sneezing, im fine. look i gotta go my dads calling me for dinner." "ok, call me later please?" "i'll try." "Maggie please?" "i said i'll try. talk to you later. "bye." My dad appeared in the doorway to the kitchen where i had been standing. "we need to talk. casey give us a minute please." "sure." said casey. me and my dad went to my room.
"sweet heart i dont know what is wronge but this isnt like you to yell." "dad, i dont like casey." "you dont even know casey." "she looks about 35 dad your robbing the cradle." "well she takes care of her self shes 42" "oh, but still." "its no exscuse." "i know." "whats really wronge." "uh well this guy likes me, and nothing will ever come of it." "and you know this how?" "hes in a band, and he tours with his brothers." "hes in a band?" he asked his voice rising "with his brothers, there kind of christian pop dad its ok. hes a good guy." "a good guy, then why wont you give him a chance?" "i told you dad he will be leaving." "look, if you give up on this guy b/c your to lazy to keep a long distance relationship then your only hurting your self hes probably a really nice guy and he at least deserves a chance." "yeah i guess your right." "and besides, some relationships fail thats the risk you have to take when dating, and if it dosent work you can always break up with him, or if the stress of not seeing him gets you down." "i guess your right, thanks dad" i got up and gave him a hug. "no problem sweetheart and about casey." "dad i am not hanging out with your new girlfriend tell her that for me and i'll try to be nice." " deal so where is this boy shouldnt you go and set things straight." "uhm i guess, i'll have to call him. to see where hes staying" "oh great invite him for dinner." "no no thats ok dad, hes probably busy." "i'm going to have to meet him sometime you know." "ok just not today please?" "ok, go, call me and let me know when you'll be back." "k dad, see you."
i called Joe and got the directions to his hotel. he met me outside "your not going to yell at me to are you?" "what? OH no, of course not, i could never yell at you." "hey sometimes you yell at the people you care about." "oh no." "what?" "Andy, i totally yelled at her." "why? isnt she your best friend?" "yeah she just kept bugging me about letting her meet nick." "maybe we should just let her." "i guess, and it would make up for yelling at her." "of course, so whats up?" "well, i leaned against the wall., i talked to my dad, and he kind of made me see that maybe things could work out long distance, and maybe you really arent like most guys." "and to prove it to you, wait right here." he opened the door to his room and came back out with a peice of paper. " so you'll always have me with you." he had drawn a picture of him. "aw Joe its adorable i love it!" "and these are for you." he pulled some beautiful red roses out from behind his back. "oh my gosh!" my face lit up. "Joe there so pretty, thank you so much. how did you know?" "know what?" "that i would come to my senses?" "i didnt but i was sure hoping you would, and on the off chance you didnt i was still going to give them to you." "oh thank you so much. i gave him a hug. your already a better boy fr...uhm guy the guys at school.
