Welcome to the Jungle
part 13.
Haley's POV still
i know this is very sad.. but.. it explains Haley's Story..

i walked out of English fast and walked to lunch. i was looking down holding my 5 Subject notebook against my stomach like i was holding on to it for dear life.. which i was. i arrived in lunch and quietly sat the book down then my bag next to me on the bench then sat down.
"you look like your about to break down.. do.. you need anything.. we can go to the bathroom or something.." Susie said worried.
"im. ill get over it.. its ok." i said quietly.. she just nodded nervously..
"Haley.. you walked out of English so fast i didn't even have time to get out of my chair.. are you alright.." Carly asked.
"ill get over it.." i sighed. im guessing ill be saying this a lot today.
"what happened.." Susie asked. i nodded towards Carly.
"i.. have no clue. but in English we watched footage of the 9/11 attack.. like.. real footage.. and stuff. and our assignment tonight is to write about it. and how it makes us feel. and our views of it." Carly said. hearing it again felt like a kick in the gut.
"oh.. wh.. Haley.. did.. someone.. die..." Susie said slowly.. i just nodded once..
"oh my god.." Carly said very quietly and covered her mouth. i just sat on my hands and looked out the window to my right. and saw some kids walking around the parking lot and walking towards the lunch room.
"Hey.." Castro said sitting with us. his friends following. i just moved against the window.
"is she ok... are you ok.. wait.. why are you all upset.." Max asked looking at the three of us..
"shes not ok.. im not ok.. were all not ok.." Carly said through her hands
"why. what happened.." Max asked clueless. i just nodded once to Carly.
"Haley.. lost. a family member.. at ground zero.. and.. we just.. feel her pain.." Carly said slowly
"oh man.." Castro sighed shocked
"who.." Max asked gently
"my mom." i said and looked down
"and my brother.. who was visiting my mom.." i added
"but... wait.. you have.. i mean.. had.. two brothers?" Max asked
"yeah.. Jeff's twin Sammy.." i said. a tear rolled down my face.. i whipped it away
"awh.." Susie said
"if you don't mind me asking.. wheres.. your dad." Castro asked.. the common question after i explain this story.
"after my mom and brother died.. he got into a alcohol addiction so now hes in some part of Up State New York at a rehab center. and Jeff went into Therapy after Sammy. this year is gunna be his 6th year.." i said
"and.. what about you.." Susie asked quietly..
"me. well.. i just had a cutting problem.. but.. its gone now.. its been done for three years.." i said. lie.
"where's your uncle.. i mean.. you only live with your Aunt, and Jeff.." Carly asked
"well.. my mom was his daughter.. his only daughter.. his only child.. and.. the death of her.. hit her the hardest.. and.. he.. committed suicide.. during his job.." i said looking in my lap..
"oh my god!" Susie said shocked and covered her mouth. the guys were just looking at me with tons of sympathy in there eyes. Carlys head is on the table. and Susie is looking at me with wide watery eyes and her hands covering her mouth. the bell rang what felt like extremely faster then usual. the day continued also faster then normal. i walked home alone.. no reason.. i just left before Susie and Carly and went a different way home. when i got home i sat my books upstairs. todays Wednesday. i have Thursday and Friday off for the Jewish holiday then the weekend. i looked on one of my many cork boards. this one im looking at is the tribute board to Mom, Sammy and Uncle Reggie. i starred at it for 10 minutes.. my eyes jumping from picture to picture. then i looked at one of my mom's many angel statues that she had in our old house that i took with me the day me and Jeff were told to move in with our god mother. and significantly in-graved on the base of the statue is "i'll be there." on a gold plate. more tears started coming down.. more then i could tame so i got in the shower and just stood there letting the cold water run on my hot teary face.. and stood there till i got goose-bumps. then switched to the hot water and took a normal shower. before i turned it off i just stood there in front of the water again letting the water run down on my face until i felt calm again.
