Chapter 20
Anger? No, I wasn't angry. Anger was something I didn't feel. What was with her? I drove to the house again. I wanted to ask Jake. But he was shocked as well. I stopped the car. Didn't move. Instead I looked at Jake.
" do you have any idea why she did that?". I looked him in the eyes. A part of me wanted to hear a yes, but mostly I wanted a no. " I don't know". He said as he took both of his hands up. I sighed.
" I saw her the other day. At the supermarket. You know where I work". He said as he looked at me. " continue". I said in a calm voice. " the supermarket is not that big as you know. She seemed to know everyone". He started to smile but he stopped. " what?". I said. " they didn't give me a uniform cause I was new there". Where was he going? " she saw me walk out with food. I was running after an old lady. She forgot some candy. Your grandma was standing outside so she is now thinking I am a thief". I laughed.
I had no idea it was like that. I was relieved. I thought she knew him from others here. Maybe he was a bad boy. I wasn't sure about the thing we had. It was too good to be true.
" let's get inside. It's too hot in here". I said as I opened the door. " you are too hot". He said as he went out of the car. I blushed. He was sweet. But I wasn't sure if that was a game.
We walked inside and I suddenly was hungry. I opened the fridge and found food. I heated up meatballs and made spaghetti with that.
Jake was upstairs and I say in the kitchen when the phone rang. My grandma disliked me for being with a " thief" she misunderstood it all.
