I say this with sensitivity. I don’t talk down to her or belittle her—ever. The man who is my father did enough of that. “But Carter! I see them! Can you not see them? ” She’s desperately scratching at her skin now. I sigh and try to take her drunken body into my arms. If I can get her to the couch and turn on some trashy talk show, she’ll calm down. “Don’t touch me! ” she screams. I stand very still and play the game. “All right. I promise I won’t touch you. What can I do to help? ” I want to scream.
But if I close my eyes…and focus only on the singing swing and the chirping crickets…I live in paradise. I breathe in, I breathe out, and I open my eyes. My heart feels lighter because I know Carter will be here soon. He’ll come walking over, sit down next to me, and make my day feel good. My time on the porch swing with Carter every night is the only way I get any sleep. I see him leave his house sneakily. His mom doesn’t care if he’s out too late, or gone altogether. But she’s probably passed out on the couch and Carter’s careful not to wake her.
Her face falls and I don’t feel bad for her. Whitney sighs dramatically. “It’s been five weeks. Five weeks! ” Here’s the thing about Whitney: I don’t like her. Whitney Morris is popular for all the wrong reasons, and happens to be mildly attractive, so people overlook the fact that she’s obnoxious. Not me, though. Sophomore year, Whitney sat behind me in History and literally talked about her pet mouse (that’s right, she has a pet mouse—named Minnie) everyday. EVERYDAY. Minnie sleeps on a silk pillow.
