Ghosting
“Bad: Twenty stitches and a foot I can’t walk on for a week.
No more Anil.
(His parents won’t let him see me, or any of us who were there that night.) My mother freaking out all over me, all the time.
At first I wanted her warm, comforting hugs, but by the second week, oh my god.
Reporters, especially the one with the flippy, fake blonde hair who asked if I felt guilty because I suggested ghosting in the first place.
Mom stepped in then and blasted her.
And one more thing: Nightmares.
Every nigh...t.
Good: Dad flew in from California.
Yeah, without his new little family.
That was a hug I’ll remember for a long time.
Teachers are a lot nicer.
Mr. Chandler even gave me an A I didn’t deserve on the first paper I wrote after ghosting.
Oh, and Josh called.MoreLess
