The Wrong Side of the Track Ch.4

Katie and I went to my house to my non-surprise my parents weren’t home. After a half a gallon of ice cream hours of degrassi and little talking Katie got frustrated.

"This isn’t how its suppose to be your suppose to pour your heart out about tony right now" she yelled
"I told you I’m not upset over him"
"Well I thought you’d be a little upset but you’ve been cherry since we got here"
"Katie can I tell you something"
"Yes! That’s what were here for"
"I have a date on Saturday"
"With tony ya’ll worked thing out today"
"No"
"Then with who?"
"Marcus"
"Who the hell is Marcus"
"The guy who helped me up yesterday he goes to our school now"
"The drug dealer"
"You don’t know that he’s a drug dealer"
"Do you know that he’s not"
"No but I’m sure I’ll find out on Saturday"
"Saturday that’s two days away you just broke up with prince charming yesterday"
"Will you stop calling him that he was no prince charming and defiantly not Mr. Perfect "
"He’s better that that drug dealer"
"Oh my gosh Katie your racist"
"Am not I’m just saying he looks like a drug dealer"
"Why cause he’s black you know whatever Katie no matter what you say I’m going on Saturday"

Katie went on for about a hour or so trying to convince me not to go but I didn’t listen to her. She probably would have gone on for longer if her mom hadn’t called hysterical because she couldn’t find their prize winning terrier. Katie tried to assure her that she was probably under a bed or something but her mother insisted she rush home. I laid on the couch in my living room and reflected on the horror that was 5th period. I may have sounded like I wasn’t scared when tony was grabbing me but I was he probably would hit me he’s done it before. Tony use to hit me all the time but he would always apologize and gave me a gift. I always forgave him always assuring myself he would never do it again. To say I was naïve would be a understatement but hey what’s a girl in love to do. Memories of Tony’s kiss, his hugs the way he use to look at me flooded into my mind causing me to cry. It hurt so bad I couldn’t believe it was over just like that he gave me no reason. Maybe I wasn’t over tony maybe I just really wanted to be I grabbed my tub of ice cream and cried myself to sleep.
