Novel & Cerita Sad Eyes From On My Block

Every time she blinked, she saw his face—the calm, taunting smile, and the way his words had dug under her skin. “You’re exactly like her.” She didn’t know who he meant. She didn’t know why it rattled her so badly. But she did know this: she couldn’t let Leo see the way her mind was unraveling. Not now. Leo stood a few steps away, phone pressed to his ear, his voice sharp as he relayed clipped instructions. Backup, extraction points, and a sweep of the surrounding blocks. He looked unshakable, the very definition of control. And yet, when he finally hung up and turned toward her, his eyes softened.

I couldn't stop myself from heading to the person who didn't care for me and whose only sentiments for me were pure flesh calls. I blocked his phone numbers. I don't have to wait any longer since I've already seen the truth with my own eyes. I locked the door so no one could see me weeping. Instead of focusing on my work, I was preoccupied with sobbing. I let the large grains of tears fall since I knew they'd be gone soon. I'm going to be OK. With my eyelids so fatigued, I just let myself sleep till I woke up without losing the weight of pain.

I yell at Adriana. She laughs, not understanding how badly I wanted to look good for her dad. “I tried. You were out of it, Sadie, like dead to the world. Your hours are going to be so fucked up,” she says with another laugh.

I just kept smiling, feeling strangely victorious. Suddenly, Sade’s phone rang, and for the briefest moment, fear flickered in her eyes at the caller ID. “I guess you should get that,” Oliver said gently. “Is it your mom?” the brunette asked. Sade nodded, her confidence wavering. “You’d better answer,” I said softly. “It might be important.” ****

Sadie’s POV, “Are you crazy?” My mother hollered. “Why do you want to do this to yourself again? Or to us for that matter. Sadie, you have to use your brain. Do you like that boy?” She asked me and I nodded at her. She just shook her head. “Then if you like him. You need to stay away from him. Before you hurt him.” I could feel myself losing control. I got up and started to walk. My hands went to fist at my sides. “Sadie, calm down.” I heard my mother say. All of a sudden, BAM! All the things on my walls and in the hallway slammed to the ground. “Sadie!” My mother yelled out. My father came running into the room and went for my arms. I turned to him and mentally threw him into the wall. I di

After watching the door for a while, dumfounded, I walked back to the dining table slowly, looking devastated. My sweet bread and peanut butter lay on a dish, half eaten, but that was probably how far it would be touched. I wasn’t in the mood to eat anymore. My appetite had suffered a knife to the heart. I walked up to my room, and stared up into space for a long while before Sadie came in later that same morning. “Have you seen my pink boots?” She asked, looking around. “What’s wrong?” “Nothing.” “Spill it.” She said, looking irritated.

‘Anywhere but here, for now. He didn’t want to be in the same space as me….he wanted to be as far away from me as possible. Just then, I felt the slow trickle of tears from my right eye, before the dam finally broke. A pained, ugly sob tore from my lips, the sound muffled because I’d buried my face into the pillow. My chest tightened painfully, stripping me of air until I got dizzy.

Those women were beyond their influence and standing. They were mere insects compared to those two. The heavens themselves were the obstacles they'd have to cross just to see them. Evan said again, "Is this enough to cull your fantasy? I didn't say yes to them, either. What made you think I'd say yes to Roxanne?" His voice thundered in their minds. "No, I…" Sadie wanted to say something, but Thaddeus roared, "You've embarrassed us enough already! Let's go!"

★One Year Ago★ Jade sat on the floor, sobbing loudly and scratching her arms, trying to get rid of the feel of her harasser's skin against hers. She kept replaying the last few hours in her mind. She could still feel his body against hers and it made her feel worthless and dirty. And like a thousand bugs were crawling through her skin, eating her up.
