Love Distance - Chapter Two
A hard time for Logon and his family?
How will she ever forgive me now? I meant every little word I said to her, but how will she ever know? I can't knock on the boarding school door, I’ll get in trouble for being near the girls' area. I didn’t mean to stand Crystal up, that was not my intention. I would have done anything to see her, to meet her for probably the last time? I know all about her past, her life, and me not turning up must have made everything worse. I feel awful, more than awful, I now feel worthless.
I looked out of the window to see all the police cars surrounding my house. The neighborhood was being nosy, peeking out their windows, or standing by the doorway to see what was going on. The police didn’t look the least bit impressed, and neither did anyone inside my house.
"There’s no escaping now son, they're going to get you!" Cried mum as she broke down in tears. Her whole body was shaking, her eyes all big and watery, her face was red, and she looked so scared.
"Well done for bringing all this drama to our front door son," snapped dad, slapping me right across my face. I held my face and stood there. There was no point hitting him back, what I did was wrong and I knew it. "What did we ever do to deserve this!?" He shouted, kicking the table. Everything on the table fell on the floor, and dad went to let the police in.
My younger sister, Olivia, was standing by the stairs in complete disappointment. "Well done moron, I knew you were an idiot, but this, this is just ridiculous!" She looked at me up and down in complete disgrace.
"It took you quite some time to open the door," snapped the policeman as he walked in. "I suppose you were all putting together your story?" He asked, with a slight chuckle. Other police walked in after him, looking around the house, and surrounding me.
"You can lie all you like guys, but we already know what exactly went on." Said another policeman, with his notepad and pen in his hand.
"None of us are going to lie sir," said dad standing up. "We all are aware that our son has done something wrong." I looked at dad and put my head down.
"Well I’m glad you can all understand that," said one of the police. "Your son will be in jail for two years, it would have been longer, but the girl has paid a lot of money for no more chargers," I looked up and screwed my face. She didn’t want that? I thought she’d do anything to get me locked up for life after I did such an awful thing. So many things I need and must do before I get locked away, but I knew I hardly had the chance.
"When will my son be locked away?" Asked mum, her voice all dry with tears.
"He's already got sentenced in court, so we're here to collect him, and then he will be behind bars Mam." Ordered the police.
I looked at mum and tried to give a light smile. The police looked at their watches, and waited outside as I said my goodbyes. I walked over to my mum, holding my tears back. I hugged her tight, but she slapped me right across my face, and then held on to me. "I’ll miss you son." She whispered. "I can't believe what is happening, but let's hope these two years go quickly." She kissed my forehead and fell right back on the chair in tears. I walked over to dad, his face was like an angry man ready to kill me. I looked down to the ground and nodded my head. "I’ll miss you son," he finally said. "But don’t you think for a second I’m not livid with you." And with that he grabbed my face, right under the jaw, and slapped me. I walked over to my sister and she put her head down, walking back upstairs, not wanting to speak. I watched as she walked off, and then made my exist out the door.
Goodbye family, goodbye home, goodbye my entire life.
