The third installment of my story!!! Jan 30th, 2004 3:40:33 am - Subscribe
When I got home after seening Zander, my parents had been worried sick over me.
"Where the HELL do you think you've been?!?!" Daddy exclaimed.

"I was at the park. I was thinking really hard and I guess time got away from me. Sorry." I really was, too. I didn't mean to stay out that late without telling my parents. I looked at the clock. It was 9:00 already! Time sure did fly. I don't think I was going to be able to go to the [park any time soon. Poopy.

"That's no excuse! You should have been home 5 hours ago!..." He went on blabbing for the next half hour but I just tuned out after a while. His little speech gets so boring anfter the third time hearing it! This had to be my 12th ot 13th time hearing it, I got it so often. I could probably recite it myself. I got it for being 5 minutes late, for God's sake!

I sighed and kept looking at him with a blank expression. "...And wipe that look off your face! You look like you're hearing this for the umpteenth time....." I thought to my self, I have heard this for the umpteenth time..... He continued on for the next hour, untill I finally spoke up.

"Can I go to bed now? I'm tired. And I still need to take my bath," I pleaded with him. I gave him my best puppy dog eyes.

He broke down. "Fine," he sighed. "Go take your bath. We'll discuss your grounding while your getting clean," and waved me away with his hand.

When I got out of the bathroom and climed into bed, Daddy came up. "We've come to the conclusion that you can't go to the park for the next month. All that dreaming will rot your brain!" He kissed me on top of my head, said goodnight, and turned out my lights.

As I snuggled into my covers, as it wasn't hot enough to sleep with just a sheet, but not cool enough to completely cover myself, I hought about Zander. What is it like living on the streets? Did he hate his parents? Could I live on the streets? Did he like like me? Did I like like him? Will I ever see him again? I kept thinking about him as I faded into dreamland.
