Life

So after I wrote, Mom got up from her nap, and nagged me for all she was worth. Sunny went with her friend Julia for her birthday. I was moping, a little because Kathleen and Sarah skipped out of school "sick"-- much like I did yesterday. (I went to work with my mom.) At nine, I lost hope of David calling, and mom nagged until I burst into tears, and didn't even let up after that. So there I was-- locked in my room, feeling sorry for myself, when the phone rings. Me-- stupid romantic who refuses to give up her ray of hope, goes bolting out of the door to pick it up. Sunny blocked Mom's way downstairs, and I reached the telephone first.
"Hello?" I ask.
"Happy Birthday, beautiful." David's voice says.
Then my mom got on and griped at me for being on the phone at 9:30. I had to hang up... that part sucked...
But he came through!! My knight in shining armor!!! I found out yesterday, that his sister (he has three siblings) ((and I thought Sunny was bad ^^)) was on the phone all night, and--even though he knew he'd get yelled at-- he decided he would be a horrible person if he didn't call anyway. After I got off the phone, I started crying again-- tears of joy at his gesture. I tried to tell him that I wasn't typical-- I didn't break up with people for not calling on my birthday, or hold grudges... but he said it was the right thing to do anyway-- after apologizing three or four times for getting me yelled at. (he only stopped apologizing after I told him that him calling was the onl thing that made my afternoon okay)
