"All right, thanks
for making me feel better, now I'm calling them."
She took her phone and a
deep breath and dialed her home number. I wondered why they didn't
call her but let her call. She had said they they would call Alex if
she didn't call. Why bother going through him when she had a phone
too and they could get to her directly? There was Alex's words on one
hand and I knew it was hard for him too even if he seemed to have it
a lot easier than Amy. They were competing for their parents love and
that was pretty awful because no of them was ever going to win.
The phone seemed to ring
for ever before someone picked up on the other side.
"Alex said you
wanted to talk to me," Amy said going as straight to the point
as Tucker. No hello, no how are you, that made me slightly
uncomfortable. I think I would at least have tried to be polite. I
made a move to leave but she grabbed my hand and held it tight. On
the other side of the line, one of her parents was going on and on
and on and Amy was clenching her jaws and closing her eyes and she
held unto me as if she needed all my energy.
