My mind was racing a million thoughts an hour. Why would Dana commit suicide? "Oh my god!" I screamed. Everyone in the room looked at me. "Are the police here?" i demanded.
"No." said George. I felt like punching something. "THAN WHY DON'T YOU CALL THEM BITCH?"
"Calm down Jana! Do not raise your voice to me!" I took a deep breath and said, "Why don't you call them? They have to know!" "The ambulance already have her body so don't worry." I quickly hung up on him. I was so confused. Zayn came up to me to ask what was wrong but I just ignored him and ran outside. I saw him run out after me but that didn't stop me. as I made my way inside my house I looked around, the whole kitchen was bloody.
"Where is she?" I demanded.
"I already told you. Now hurry up, clean this mess up before any one sees. Then go back to Zayn's or something. Just get out of here for the rest of the day." Before any one sees? Was this man crazy? His wife had just committed suicide and he wanted me to go to a friend's house and forget about it all? Without saying a word I cleaned up the gross blood and instead of going back to Zayn's I ran to my room and cried. This was all happening to fast.
Just then Zayn called, "What happened Jana? Are you OK? Are you crying?" I couldn't speak, Then when I got my breath I said.
"Dana committed suicide."
There was silence at the other end of the line then quietly Zayn replied. "I'll be right over."
Zayn was here the whole time comforting me. George never came out of his room the whole day either. That was fine with me because I didn't want to see his face ever again. Zayn held me as I flooded his T-Shirt with tears. "Jana, it'll be ok. Please stop crying." Said Zayn, "You know I hate seeing you cry!"
I swallowed hard and stopped tearing and said, "But why Zayn, why?" I asked. "Why would she leave me like this?" Zayn was speechless. I had an idea but couldn't share it, what if she committed suicide because I forgot her birthday? What if it was because George never let her go? My head started to ache so I let Zayn go home, then layed in bed the rest of the day.
The next morning I was thinking about skipping school but I couldn't. Today was Zayn's soccer game and I had promised him last year that if he gets in the team, I wouldn't miss a game for any reason. I know he would have made an exception at a time like this, but I didn't want to stay at home and be miserable the rest of my life. Besides, I had to keep my mind off things. I decided to skip school and meet Zayn at lunch for his game. I slowly made my way downstairs and saw George on the couch.
"Go to Safeway and buy the grocery. This summer you need to go get a job and pay for us." My eyes narrowed. George was the sickest bastard i have ever seen in my life. If i was the one who was going to pay for this house now, I might as well as kick him out. "And don't think about kicking me out." He warned as if he read my mind. "I raised you, and gave you a home in the first place! If it wasn't for me you'd be a lonely 16 year old living in an orphanage!" I scolded at him then grabbed the keys and drove to the store in Dana's Range Rover. When I gathered all my groceries I made my way to the check-out line. Just then I crashed into someone and my basket fell. I looked up and saw a brown haired beauty. My heart pounded so hard I was sure it'd just rip threw my chest.
"I'm sorry" I said embarrassed.
"No," He smiled. "My fault. I should have looked where I was going." The sound of his words just made me want to faint. He helped me pick up my groceries as I just stared at him. He had a super fit body, along with the most charming dark eyes. "I'm Liam." He said as he shook my hands. It took me a while to snap back to reality and reply.
"Oh" I said like an idiot. "I'm Janette. But you can call me Jana." "Jana." He repeated. "That's cute." and he was gone. Just like that. Leaving me thinking of him the rest of the week.
