Be Careful When You Bite Me

Chapter 27

I tried to hide the sudden feeling of anxiety that arose within me. I wondered if she could somehow tell that I was hiding something,” it was alright, I seen myself on the news as a missing person, that was hard to watch.”

Asia’s expression turned sad,” I can’t imagine what your parents are going through right now.”

“Me neither, I wish I could call them, just to reassure them that I’m ok.”

Asia looked hesitant before setting her chopsticks down and grabbing her cellphone,” make it quick.”

I looked at her with an expression of uncertainty,” are you sure?”

She nodded,” don’t tell Damon.”

I grabbed the phone and got off the stool, I punched in my mothers phone number and looked up at Asia who gave me a reassuring smile. I gulped back my nerves and hit dial.

I felt my heart drop to the deepest pit of my stomach as I heard the phone ringing and finally, the purest voice of all, my mothers.

“Hello.”

She sounded normal. That was my first thought was that she sounded normal. I took a deep breath and tried to get my words together.

“Hello,” I replied,” mom, it’s me.”

“Holly,” I could always hear it in my mothers voice when she was getting ready to cry and I could tell that it was coming,” Holly, where are you!”

“Mom, I’m okay, I’m not far from home.”

“Where have you been all this time, I thought you were dead somewhere!”

“I’m in New York mom.”

“What the hell are you doing in New York!”

I could hear the anger and the frustration through the crying but I could also hear the relief.

“I’ve been at a friends house here, I’m going to stay a little longer but I’ll be back soon.”

“Which friend? I didn’t even know that you knew anybody in up there.”
