Not Enough Tears
chapter two..

My Aunt Miranda and I went home from my dad's funeral silently. I wasn't really the social type, but my aunt is. This is the first time in a very, very long time that she actually stopped. I was trying to organize things in my mind. Did he know he was going to die? What if somebody threatened him! Now that I really thought hard about it, the day before he disappeared, he was being so nice to me and hugging my lots and lots of times. If only he told me, I would've spent that whole day with him and bonding with him. I started to tear up, but I swallowed them back like always. We arrived at my Aunt's cute little ranch. She made me a grilled cheese (just like Daddy) and we watched a couple of episodes of Project Runway. I went into my room and texted my best friend Ashley.
 ME: Hey Ash. The funeral's over, wanna come over now?
ASH: Yeah! Be over in 5.
I'm not usually the type to make friends. Ashley is pretty much my only friend. We met at a school program for kids who have had a parent or close person in their life pass away. I was there because I kind of figured my father had died. Ash's big brother died in a car crash 4 years ago. I felt so bad... But together, we are two of the happiest teenage girls around.
She always knows how to brighten my day.
