One mate and a Rejection

PART 1 Chapter 20 — 01
Sleep has been beyond absurd.

It was almost silly to have expected a night full of peace and rest.

Listening to the endless choked sobbing of my mother as she pleads my dad to return,only to have the voicemail limit cut short.

It hurt me that she was in this much pain,and it hurt even more knowing I couldn't do anything about it.

The everlasting times my mother has called my dad,only to receive no progress tells me that he won't pick up even if I call.

Jason is gone,careless to whatever is going on here,while being captured by Amanda's hypnotizing allure.

Although the shattering pieces of my mother's heart imprisoned my every thought,my worry for Blade lay fresh at the side of my mind.

I still wondered what happened at the meeting.

Are they running Blade's pack to a different territory? Maybe his pack is our look—out now,acting as our protectors as punishment.

Surely keeping the enemy safe would be torture enough for them.

I listened to the last words that left my mother's lips before she fell into yet another tearful mess.

A voice mail later,a possible bottle of wine and two or more hiccups every couple of seconds.

The stress was constant in my mind.

The morning rolled around as slowly as possible and for the first time I had witnessed everything that happened outside in process.

The moon went up,then it went down.

The sun went up,and lit the whole sky.

Simple as that yet more slowly than anything.
