Love in the wheat field 의 모든 챕터: 챕터 11 - 챕터 17

Jenna has been doing more around the house and I am super happy about that. We've gone to the spa together 3 times now and I am starting to connect with her. I kind of feel like I have a sister when I hang out with her. Caeleb is still teasing me at work by whispering things but I've learned to control my reactions. I do blush a little here and there but not as bad as before. I've been dreaming about him almost every night since he kissed me and the dreams just keep getting more intense. My birthday is in 3 weeks and I can't wait. I have almost enough saved to get a place and get all the utilities turned on with a little money left to pay another month or two in advance on rent. I've already called the owner of two of the places I found and they both told me as soon as I turn 18, I am welcome to come check out the rentals. I am so happy I will be moving out soon and will get to start spending time with Caeleb again without having to worry about Aaron. I also called our family lawyer a

It's been a week since I got into it with Aaron. He still hasn't given me the money that was left for me to get a car but that's ok. I will get it from the lawyer when I go in for my meeting with him. A little over a week and I will be free from my controlling brother. I will be free to do as I please and be with Caeleb without having to worry about Aaron firing Caeleb because of me. After I got dressed I headed into the kitchen to make myself something to eat before going to work and Jenna was sitting at the table. "Good morning, Jenna." "Morning, Skyla." "You ok, Jenna?" "Yeah, I'm okay just arguing with your brother again." "Let me guess. You two were arguing about me?" "Yeah. It was about you getting a car. I don't understand why he is being so pig-headed. He feels like if you get a car you are going to stay gone and he won't be able to keep an eye on you." "Keep an eye on what? Me going to work and coming home? I don't have friends and the only friend I had, I can'

I didn't hear Aaron's mouth after that. He knows I am right but doesn't want to give up his control over me. It didn't surprise me that he forgot my birthday. Since our parents died, I have had to remind him every year that it was my birthday. I was so frustrated with Aaron that I didn't want to be at the house at the moment. I walked out of my room and straight out the door. I didn't care if he was yelling at me asking where I was going. I am now an adult and I don't have to answer to him anymore. I walked down the road and when I got to the first red light coming into the town, I stopped. I looked around and tried to figure out somewhere to go. I decided to head to the little coffee shop down the street. I walked in and ordered a blueberry bagel and a coffee. When my order was ready, I went and sat down at a table and began eating. When I finished my bagel and coffee, I didn't know where else to go after I was ready to leave the coffee shop. I thought about going further into town a

I woke up to snoring and something heavy across me. My heart began to race and I was on the verge of freaking out when I realized I was in Caeleb' s bed. I lifted his arm and gently placed it on the bed as I got up. I went into the bathroom and did what I needed to do then washed my hands and face. Caeleb was still sound asleep when I exited the bathroom. I went into the living room area and grabbed my phone off the table. I had 3 text messages from Aaron and 1 missed call from him. I rolled my eyes and opened the text. * * Skyla, where are you? It's almost 2 A.M. * * * * Skyla, Hello? Where are you? * * * * If you aren't home or if I don't hear from you by noon, I am calling the police and reporting you as a missing person. * * I laughed at the last text he sent me. I don't get why he is so worried about me now. He has never been worried like this before. Thankfully it's only 7 A.M. so I still have time before he calls the police. That is if he really meant it. I put my phone
