Locked out

Oliver

“Seems to me like you’re in need of a talk with our next door neighbor,” my mother said taking me out of my slumber. I looked up to her standing in the doorway. The hallway light was illuminating her from my dark room.

After my argument with Abby I called Damian, got my fix and came back home to an empty house.

“What time is it?” I asked with my eyes still adjusting to the light.

“Almost eight p.m.”

Great. So I managed to sleep all day. Damian Bushmans you’re a fucking genius.

“I’m hungry. Did you prepare anything for dinner?”

She narrowed her eyes at me. “There’s some left over roast-beef from yesterday in the fridge. You can make yourself a sandwich. We were supposed to have dinner with the Evens’ tonight. Remember?”

I racked my brain, trying to recall when I had agreed to have dinner at Abbygail’s house, but couldn’t figure it out.

“She wasn't up for it either. So don’t feel bad.”

“Trust me, I don’t.”

“Okay...” She frowned. “So now I’m really curious. What happened between the both of you today?”

“She found out I was leaving tomorrow.”

“Just now?” my mother shouted. Her harsh voice made me flinch, although it might also have been the fact that she was just very loud, and I wasn’t quite awake yet. “How could you keep information like this from your best friend, Oliver? What the hell is the matter with you?”

Nope, that was her being mad, after all.

“I kept it from everyone, not just her, and she found out yesterday. Today we just had a really bad fight about it.”

“I doubt an extra fifteen hours makes much of a difference in her opinion.” She crossed her arms over her chest and glared at me. “And honestly, I’m going to side with her on this one.”

I rose from my bed and flattened my disheveled hair by putting my Volcom cap on. “I don’t see what the problem is.”

“How about trying to reverse the roles, and stand in her shoes for a sec?”

Okay, let me rephrase: You don’t see what the problem is.

“How would you feel if your best friend upped and left within hours of notifying you?”

How would you feel if you needed to stand in front of your best friend, with whom you are also in love, and tell her that you want to change your entire life because you’re not worthy of her or anything else in life?

“You don’t get it.”

“You’re right. I don’t. She’s your best friend, Oliver. She’s our family.”

“Mom, I made this decision for myself. It was just better for me this way. If you wanted her to know before now, you should have just told her yourself two weeks ago, when you told me.”

“Trust me, I wanted to, but her mom and I agreed that the news should come from you, seeing as you’re the one who made the request to move in the first place.”

“I bet you were just hoping I’d change my mind.”

Her lips pursed and that’s when I understood why she’d planned my departure as quickly as she did.
