Chapter Seventy-Four – Project destroyed.
My wish was somehow granted and the weekend fast forwarded to Monday.
I was happy to breathe in the fresh breeze of a Monday morning. I still hated Monday mornings.
My school preparations routine went quickly and I hopped in Charles' car to drive me to school.
I faced the other side avoiding Charles gaze.
“Don’t you listen, this girl? I said I’m sorry” he repeated. I rolled my eyes. He always used demeaning words on me.
Perhaps it was cos I was always sorting his attention when we were kids. Or cos I still depend on him now a lot.
But I knew I could help myself. If I just stop lazing around a bit.
“Thanks for dropping me off” I said and proceeded to opening the car door. It didn’t budge. I glared at Charles.
“You’re welcome. But we should settle first. I got angry at you for being careless. I’m sorry if I used hurtful words. Am I forgiven?” he asked.
