Chapter 26: Healing -->

I call Kade at lunch, just like I did between every period this morning. He’s home alone while my parents are at work, and somehow is moving around the house without barfing all over our nice carpet. He said he’s only gotten up once to get more Ginger ale. He doesn’t keep going to the bathroom to puke – he has a trash can and bowl by his bed. (A little too much information for me.)

“Hey, how are you doing?” I ask him when he picks up on the third ring.

“Becca, Lindsey is home now. You don’t have to keep calling,” he says from the other line. He doesn’t sound so out of breath now, which is a good sign.

“Yeah I do,” I respond quietly.

“Why?”

“Because I’m worried about you,” I respond again, wanting to take back what I just said. I worry about him so much. Cynthia left him here and I’m in charge of taking care of him now. I just can’t get too close to him or else I will never let him go.

“What happened that morning you were screaming?”

“I can’t tell you.” Why did he bring this up now? Did he really have to? He basically just ruined the rest of my day.

“Why not?” He pushes me more. I don’t like to be pushed. Never.

I hang up.
