School Days to Green Day, chapter 2
I was totally dreading the next day. I didn't get that much sleep as well. Why you may ask? Because that thought of me and Mike! Kissing.... ugh. I wondered if he told Billie yet...
"Packed yet?" My dad asked.
"Yes." I replied, not even looking at his face.
"Look, I'm sorry for what I did. I mean, she was drunk, she DID go out with some punk rocker 5 years younger than her!" Dad said, "You've just gotta accept that me and your mom is over!"
"Hmph." I grumbled.
"Now you're like your mom. Getting all punked up! If only you be like your big sis, popular with lots of mates! But noooo, you're with two idiots..."
"They're not two idots, they're my best friends!"
"You wouldn't even have any friends, you're so... ugh!" Michelle mumbled.
Thump.
Michelle fell to the ground after I pushed her and started to kick her. I ran out of the room and out of the house. I decided to see if Rod's Hickory Pit was open. It took me five minutes to go get there by running.
"Closed" said the sign. There was my doom, my fate, my... Mike? I saw a lady in there, so I banged on the door so I could come in.
"ALL RIGHT, I'M COMING! NO NEED TO GET ALL PISSED OFF!!!" Shouted the lady and opened the door for me.
"Sorry for that..." I said.
"It's ok... now whadyawant?" She asked.
"Do you know anyone called Mike?"
"Sure, I know lots of them... surname please?"
"Mike... Mike Dirnt? I wondered if you know his address... I kinda lost it"
"He's my son's best mate! You must know Billie Joe then?"
"Yup. But can you please tell me his address?" I asked.
"If I had my son here, I could help. But sorry, no can do!" She replied.
"Well if you see Mike or Billie... tell them I've left." I said.
"Okie dokie. Now can you please go, it's one hour until opening time. Hey you look hungry, shall I make you a sandwhich for you to eat an to take on your travels?" She said, "Ollie's the name by the way."
"Thanks, but no thanks... nice meeting you." I said and left the restaurant. I guess thats the last of Rod's Hickory Pit.
As soon as I got back to my house... I didn't get much of a welcome...
"WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU?! WE WERE WORRIED SICK!" Dad shouted.
"Maybe she went to Rod's Dickory Pit..." Michelle mumbled, "My nails are in a mess..."
"Rod's Hickory Pit... yes I did go there. Got a problem with that?"
"God... I can't stand any of this any more. We're leaving," He said "MICHELLE GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE!!!"
Out of the door we go, and into the car, then a journey to London for a stupid meeting that I don't even know about. Halfway through the car journey I saw a boy... someone that I recognised.
Mike.
"Stop the car!" I said to my dad.
"No."
"I said, STOP THE FUCKING CAR!"
"No."
I opened the window and shouted really loudy..
"MIKE!!!!!" And I smiled... with a little wave.
He was holding some flowers and a box of... something. He dropped the gifts and then ran after the car.
"Step on it dad!" Said Michelle, "Thank you soooo much Mad for getting a hooligan on our trail!"
"My pleasure." I replied in a sarcastic way.
Mike stopped running... he stood in the middle of the road staring at the car. I stared at him, slowly drifting away from me until nothing was there. The hot tears came rolling down my cheeks again. If only Mike was there to kiss me and everything will be alright, but no. In the middle of the Highway, I received a surprise... a bad one.
"Oh yeah... when you were out at the stupid place, I received a phone call. Change of plan, we're going to Africa!" Dad said.
How the hell am I going to contact Mike now. They don't have the fancy things like phones or computers! I guess my promise to Mike was broken. I feel like... killing myself...
"Packed yet?" My dad asked.
"Yes." I replied, not even looking at his face.
