The Mysterious Guy, chapter 18
"Thanks for dropping me home Mike." I said to Mike as I stepped out of the car.
"Bye Tre, dream about your Chinese strippers." I told Tre.
"YAY sssssssssssssure, beeeeess" Said Tre from the back of the car, drunk still.
"Take care Joey." Said Mike as I closed the door.
I walked to the entrance of my house I unlocked the door and walked in, I turned around and waved to Mike, he waved back, Tre stuck his tongue to the window of the car and then Mike drove away.
I closed the door and walked to the kitchen to get something to eat.
As I walked into the dark kitchen I stepped into something that make me almost fell off.
"Oh my fucking god." I said as I turned on the light. There I saw my sister lying in the cold kitchen floor; she was with her face down to the floor. I kneeled quickly beside her and I turned her around so I could see her face.
She got a purple eye and she had a bit of blood coming down from her mouth, she also got a scratch in her cheek.
"Sister?" I said to her. But no answer
I pressed my ear against her chest, her heart was beating, she was still breathing, I checked her pulse, everything alright, she was just passed out.
I went for a glass of water and gave it to her to wake up.
And she woke up, she opened her eyes wide open and she looked around, she saw me and immediately she hugged me.
"What's wrong?" I asked her.
She moved apart and took a deep breath, she looked scared, she combed her hair with her hands and then she looked at me and smile.
"Nothing I just slipped and fell down and I hit my head against the floor." She said, I looked at her disappointed.
"Ok... and how do you explain that?" I said pointing to her purple eye.
"What?" she said as she stood up. She took a spoon and looked at her eye.
"Aaah, that... I... I hit myself in gym class." She told me.
"Ok... "
"Yeah, we were practicing boxing and I was shaking my fist and I hit my eye with those big and heavy globes boxer guys use." she said, ten she washed her face.
"Well... "
"Well... did you just arrive?" she asked changing subjects.
"Yeah."
"What were you doing outside so late?"
"I was at a friend's house." I told her as I opened the fridge.
"Suuuure. You were at Billie's, weren't you?" she asked. I didn't answer, I closed the fridge door and opened the dispense looking for cookies.
"OH MY GOD!" she screamed.
"What?" I said scared.
"YOUR HANDS! WHAT HAPPENED?" she said as she took my hands that were covered by the bands Billie put around them, the bands where dark red because of the blood.
"Ah, this, nah, nothing."
"Joey listen." Said my sister as she put her hands in my shoulder and turned me around.
"You are my sister, you can trust in me, you can tell me anything, Like why were you crying a whole week some weeks ago, or why are you arriving so late, and why your hands are bleeding, or anything, I want to help you because you are my sister, and I love you." She told me.
I looked at her and I thought: "Wow actually my sister cares about me."
"Why won't you tell me why that was first?" I said pointing to her purple eye.
"Joey If I don't tell you is because you don't need to know... yet."
"A?" I looked at her disappointed.
"I mean, it's not necessary to know yet, in fact its better for you not to know, trust me." She told me.
I looked at her eyes for a few minutes.
"Ok... " I said finally.
"Nice now, do you want to tell my why are you so depressed lately?" she asked me warmly.
I looked at her, my eyes started to drop tears.
She immediately hugged me, I cried in her shoulder.
"My little Joey." She said as she hugged me. "What's wrong?"
"Everything." I told her.
"Love?" she asked softly.
"Love is everything"
"Aw Joey, cry, its ok, take all the pain away." She told me.
"It feels that it's never going away."
"Aw love, listen, I'll make you a cup of hot chocolate, then we'll go upstairs to your room and you can tell me everything that is happening to you and I'll try to help you out ok?" she asked
I shacked my head up and down saying yes.
"Nice." She said then she took out everything to make hot chocolate.
It took her 5 minutes to have it ready, then we walked upstairs to my room, she took out my PJ's of my closet and she gave it to me to change clothes, then she took back the shits of my bed, then I lay in my bed and she covered my with the shits, then she sat beside me.
"Here you are." He said as she handled me the hot chocolate. "Now, what's wrong?"
I told her everything, since we took our flight till what happened few hours ago.
"Holy... "
"Fuck." I finished her sentence.
"Yes, oh my god Joey, you've been through to much stuff." She said
"Yeah... "
"Wow, I'm shocked really, I'm so sorry, but if Billie does loves you he will find a way out so you to can be together.
"I'll die what ever he does, if he doesn't marry Adie, she'll kill me, and if he marries her I'll die of love. The fact of not being with him five minutes are years in death." I said, and then I drink a sip of hot chocolate.
"I'm sure he'll find a way to survive. But that Adie, she's ... Mad, crazy, fucked up, really."
"Yeah... she's not the same that the one they met at the concert... "
"Hmhm yeah... " she yawned. "Well sister, I'm tired, so you, so I'll go to sleep, ok?" she said then she stood up and kissed me. "Night."
"Wait." I said as the opened my bedroom door, she turned around. "I'm scared, of those guys." I said. She smiled and walked back to me.
"You want me to stay with you tonight?" she asked me.
"Like when we were child, do you remember?"
She smiled even more. "Yeah, ok, I'll stay with you tonight." She said and the covered lay beside me and covered herself and me with the shits.
I looked at her. "I love you my sister."
"Me too darling, good night." She said and she kissed my front.
A sudden ringing from my cell phone woke me up.
"Ello?" I answered the phone.
"Joey! This is Mike."
"Hi Mike, what's up?" I asked sleepy
"Listen, do you remember the stuff we told you last night about Adie? About the concert and that her hair was weird and that she wasn't the same?" he told me exited.
"Yeah... what's with that?"
"Well, I just entered to Adie bathroom, and I found a picture of Adie."
"Huh?"
"I mean, this Adie, the weird one, the one who is living with Billie, isn't really Ad—" suddenly mike stopped.
"Hello? Mike?" I asked
"Hmm!!!" I heard Mike saying, it seemed like someone was covering Mike's mouth so he wouldn't talk, then somebody hanged up the phone.
"What the... " I was too sleepy to think at that moment, so I lay back and fell asleep again.
Two hours later.
"HOLY SHIT!!! ADIE ISNT THE REAL ADIE, AND THE IMPOSTOR CATCHED MIKE TELLING ME! FUUCK." I said to myself, I ran downstairs and I took my coat, I ran outside to Mike's house.
"Bye Tre, dream about your Chinese strippers." I told Tre.
"YAY sssssssssssssure, beeeeess" Said Tre from the back of the car, drunk still.
"Take care Joey." Said Mike as I closed the door.
