Changing Bobby novel Chapter 2

"Cindy how are you?". the lady asked.

"I'm okay Marissa, how have Bobby been doing?". grandma asked.

"He's not doing good, he just ran upstairs when the doorbell rang". the woman frown.

"Oh am sorry to hear that, he'll be okay soon". The lady smiled and nod before turning to me.

"And you must be ashy". the woman smiled at me.

"Ashton", I corrected. "nice to meet you".

"I'm Marissa nice to meet you too come in you too, dinners ready".

She walk off and we followed, looking around the house as I go. Yep this place is rich we came to the dinning room and a old man looked up and smiled at us.

"Hey Cindy, how's it going?"the man said shifting in the chair.

"Am okay Ted, how are you?". my grandma asked.

"Am getting older everyday". the man said and cracked his back. I snickered.

"And who's this rebel looking kid?". he asked.

"Oh this is Ashton, my grandson".

Grandma said.

"Hi". i said.

"Have a seat you two, time to eat".

Marissa came over placing food on the large diamond table.

"Isn't Bobby joining us". grandma asked again.

"No, he's still in his own little world". Ted whispered.

"Oh". my grandma said as we started to eat. The three of them got into a deep conversation. We finish eating about half and hour later and I just watch in amuse as they talked. I could hear noise coming from up the stairs. I think its the Bobby kid. Ted said he was still in his own little world. I wonder what that meant.

After about a hour I got bored.

"Can I use your restroom?". I asked, interrupting their conversation.

"Well of course ". Marissa smiled at me. I smiled back and stood up.

I went up the stairs inspecting the house as I go along. I forgot to ask Marissa where the bathroom is. If I go through every door that will take too long. I heard noise coming from a door down the hall, maybe it was Bobby. I can ask him where the bathroom is and I could meet Bobby.

Bobby's P. O. V

I was still watching TV, the guest was still downstairs. I could hear them I wanted an apple but I wasn't coming out until I know they were gone.

I got up to use the bathroom, as soon as I got up there was a knock at the door. I jumped and stop in places, it has to be my grandma or grandpa.

"Come in". I said and the door handle turn and a guy walked in smiling.

Fear zapped through my body. I let out a scream. He jumped back.

I nod and she close it. I soon calm down and my grandpa let go of me and stood up.

"Are you okay now Bobby?". he asked.

I nod he walked out and I got up fast and close the door, locking it. I backed up to my bed and sat down. I brought my knees to my chest and rock my self back and forth. I wasn't ready to go back to school, I just wasn't. I haven't been so frighten since the last time I left this house and that was a long time. I haven't left the house in two months, summer and my old house I haven't left since the incident happened.

People just scare me. My mind went back to a few minutes ago. I was so scared I felt like peeing myself. The guy Ashton, his voice sounded so welcoming but he scared me, everyone does.

I woke up from a loud knock on my door.

"Bobby wake up".

I groan and went to the door, I opened it and my grandma step in.

"Did you sleep last night hun?". she ask and sat on my bed.

"Yea, I slept right through".

"Oh that's good, you know you don't have to go to school now. You can start in September, from what I saw yesterday you're not ready to go back in public you're still scared". she pulled me down beside her.

She was right I was still very afraid, I couldn't last a day out there. I know I have to be brave because I haven't gone to school since my old house. All I had to do was stay far away from people as possible and if I feel like I was gonna freak out or something just take a deep breath.

"Yea I still wanna go".

Did, I just said that?oh my gosh they are going to kill me out there.

"Ok great so the school is about five minutes from here, do you want to walk and enjoy the outdoors or take your car?".
