Chapter 23

It was a nice sunday morning. I finally decided to go to church without my parents pushing me. I got ready in a really hot blue dress, that had a split at the side. My hair let loose( curls) but people, i finally looked like i was ready for church. I had on a blue high heels. Brianna just remained the hot chic that she was. Red dress ( knee length),  split at the side, red high heel shoes and loose hair( flat ironed). We looked damn hot. Mrs. Richards also came. I literally had to take my coffee with me , i just never get to finish my breakfast. Yesterday, we went to the beach together and a couple of other places shelly had in mind. But we really enjoyed ourselves. We took lots of pictures together. Just a family get to know activity. Now, back to church, we stepped out of the lemo following behind both moms and dad. Weird right. Anyways, we still followed them. And i' m telling you, church, wasn't church. All eyes were on us. I spotted Cody in a corner where the middle benches were. I quickly went and sat beside him smiling. Brianna followed me along with kate, Brian and Matthew. And so we sat. I didn't dare to look at Cody, because i knew he was busy staring at me already. The sermon started. " So, you' re the C", Brianna said looking at Cody and smiling. " Huh?", Cody asked. " Never mind her". I said. " why aren't you up there?", i asked. " It' s not youth Sunday today", he said whispering in my ears. I closed my eyes as his warm lips brushed against my ear. He smiled at me. I turned to him smiling. I found myself searching for trust in his eyes. Can i really trust him?. What if he ends up hurting me?. All those questions raced through my mind  a million times. I lookee away from him and turned my attention back to the altar. The sermon began. The preacher welcomed Brianna, Brian and their parents. He spoke about fear and how we can overcome it. Just read your bible, pray and talk to someone. After church, they gave us goodies. I was inside talking and laughing with Cody. " So, are those your family memebers ?"  he asked pointing outside at Brianna and Brian. I followed his gaze, looking back at him. " Yep", i said looking straight in his eyes. He cleared his throat looking at me. I looked at him confused. " Whag?", i asked. He kept on looking at me." What?", i asked more confused. " I know you have sonething to tell me, i' m just waiting", he said smiling. " What?, i don' t have anything to tell you", i said. " Look me in the eye and tell me don' t have something to tell me", he said smiling. Oh boy. " I can' t", i said turning away from him. His smile faded away. " I see", i heard someone say. I know it wasn't Cody. I looked up and saw a man and a woman. " Mom, dad?", Cody asked getting up. I turned my attention outside for a few seconds before getting up. And i swear i saw the devil; Cabello. I must be dreaming or something. What is he doing here?." This os Emily", Cody said. I turned my attention back to them, trying to remove the shock expression i had on my face. Cody noticed, and signalled to me if i was ok. I shook my head at him after which i told his parents it was nice to meet them. " um excuse me, i need to use the bathroom", i said walking out of the church. I looked back at Cody who seemed really upset. I guess he wanted me to get to know his parents, but i can' t do that right now. I have to find out why the devil is here?. Forgive me Lord for calling him that, but when a human being like Cabello is that bad in dealing with his actions, you just have to label him as the real devil.
