Chapter 7
Zoey felt very happy that she was able to find out more information on her boyfriend's condition, because she was looking through the book with Mike in the school's library, after school. Mike was very thankful to Zoey for everything that's she's doing for him; he just hopes that everything will go according to plan.
"I still can't thank you enough for this. This is one of the kindest things that you've done for me Zoey, thank you…really." Zoey smiles and gives Mike a quick peck on the cheek.
"No problem Mike," She opens the book again and heads to the chapter that talks about M.P.D.
"Hmmm, it says here that mostly two or three times of over-powering your other personalities should do the trick Mike. Why don't you try a third time and let's see what happened." Mike looks at her with a kind of down look.
"I-I…I can't…"
"What do you mean 'I can't'?"
"It's not that simple Zoey…I need to think of something more powerful that my other personalities."
"Then think of something that's stronger to you than anything else. And don't say Vito, because that guy is-"
"Annoying,"
"Yeah…annoying." They laugh a little, but push on with what they were doing.
"How about we head back to your or my house Mike? That way…we'll be able to do things without people seeing or disturbing, deal?" Mike nods and they collect their things and start walking to Mike's car.
"By the way, great thinking about riding in my car instead of the bus Zoey." Mike says as they approach his car.
"Not a problem Mike; I knew things were going to get pretty bad if we keep riding that bus of hell." They get in Mike's car, he starts the engine, and they were off.
They were now in Zoey's back yard, sitting under a nice, shady tree while reading the book.
"Ok Mike…think of something…anything." Mike struggles to think of something, but fails.
"I can't…I don't know why…but I can't." Zoey flips through the pages of the chapter that she was on, and thought she'd found a solution.
"Hmmm, how about acting out your other personalities Mike? That way, you'll be able to think of something powerful AND…take them down at once." Mike thinks for a moment; he hates his personalities…but if this is what his girlfriend thinks it'll help him…he just had to give it a go at it anyway.
"Oh…what the heck, I'll do it." And so, he stands up.
"Try and turn into…Chester." Zoey points out. Mike sighs and tries.
"I can't…usually he comes when-" Mike trips on a small hill in the grass and falls down; Zoey gasp and puts the book down and runs up to help him.
"Oh God Mike…are you ok?" Mike gasp again and Chester came.
"I don't need assistants! Back in my day we didn't bother helping, we just helped ourselves." Mike gasps and turns back into himself.
"I'm so sorry about what I said Zoey, it's just…Chester." Zoey kisses him.
"It's ok Mike. Well…at least we've gotten Vito and Chester; now all's that's left is…Svetlana." Mike moans with disappointment.
"Oh…how I hate her…"
"I know Mike, but just please be positive about this…it's going to help." He knew that she was right about this, and tries to get Svetlana to show up.
"Hmmm…I need something challenging to do. That's how she shows up most of the time." Zoey nods and gets out her trampling out of the shed.
"You guys have a trampling?"
"Yeah…we've had it since I've turned six; it still work…but I think you shouldn't go to crazy on it while you're Svetlana." Mike nods and gasps.
"Ha-ha, Svetlana will now perform her triple flip jump!" Svetlana jumps onto the trampling and does do a triple flip in the air; Mike then lands back onto the grass and gaps again.
"Ok…great, now we can start working on getting rid of my personalities." Mike says happily about this; Zoey smiles and walks towards him.
"Yep…and I believe in you Mike. Remember…you've got to believe in yourself to do that." He nods again and tries to over-power them…but once again…fails to do so.
"Ohhh…I'll never get them to disappear…never!" Mike cries with disappointment; Zoey places her hand on his shoulder and rest her head on it as well.
"I'm so sorry Mike…but I do promise that I'll not stop helping you through this. But for now," Mike starts to look at her again.
"I think that we should probably wait for a while."
"Why?"
"Well for one…winter is on the way and me and my family needs to get Christmas stuff together; and we still need to get the rest of the school stuff done before Christmas break." Mike nods and they head back inside the house.
Mike heads back home after a few hours at Zoey's house; he was now sitting at the kitchen table with his family, having dinner.
"So Mike, how was today?" Jack has asked as he passes the potatoes over towards him.
"It was ok…Zoey had tried to help me with my condition,"
"Well that was really nice of her." Jessie exclaims.
"Yeah it was…but it failed…"
"What do you mean?" Mike looks at his father.
"No matter what we try…I'm always stuck with my stupid personalities. I mean, why was I even born with it, why do I have it, and why must I suffer from M.P.D every single day, hour, minute, and year!" Mike then puts his head in his hands, elbows on the table, and starts to cry a little. Jack and Jessie could tell that their son was really hurt; they've wished they can help their son through his tuff times…but can't. Mike looks up from his hands, tears were in his eyes.
"And another thing is…you guys weren't even there for me when I needed you guys, you guys didn't even tell me about me having M.P.D until I was in fifth grade…fifth grade!" Jack and Jessie looked at Mike with disbelieve...how can he even say that.
"That's not true Mike," Jessie says with disbelieve.
"We love you Mike, no matter what. The reason we never told you about your condition was because that we didn't know about it until then, that…and we didn't know how to tell you about it." Mike puts his head down again and cries a little more. But before Jack or Jessie could say anything else to him…Mike got out of his seat was slowly walks upstairs, into his room.
"Why can't I just be normal?" Mike mumbles to himself and he closes his bedroom door behind him.
He then takes his clothes off and gets ready for bed; he flops himself onto his bed and underneath the covers…crying…himself to sleep.
Awwwwww...poor Mike. :(
