I Knew You Would
Chapter 23
Annie's POV
Tears escape my eyes. One after another.
"Harry! How could you keep this from me?" I put my head in my hands. My parents died. I can't believe it. My parents died! "How did it happen. WHEN did it happen?"
"Annie, there's on more thing I have to tell you."
Oh god! How could it get any worse than this? My parents died! DIED! Gone, as in forever! There's no way I can ever see them again! I know what Harry had to say was going to be bad. But honestly, I think I can take it. It can't possibly be worse than my parents death.
"Annie...that night of the wreck... I told you that I over-corrected the car. But I didn't."
"Oh please, Harry. I DON'T CARE HOW WE GOT IN THE WRECK! NOTHING CAN BE WORSE THAN MY PARENTS DYING! TELL ME HOW DO YOU THINK IT COULD BE WORSE?"
He looks down at his hands. "We ran into another car."
"WELL WOOPDIE-FUCKIN-DOO I DON'T CARE! WHY DOES IT EVEN MATTER?"
"Because-"
"NO. Don't tell me."
"But-" I interrupt again.
"I SAID-"
"GODDAMMIT ANNIE! LET ME SPEAK!"
Once again, I was silenced by his yelling. All the anger from everything he's told me has just made me overreact. But this can't be overreacting. It's normal for someone to be mad about their parents death.
"Okay," I say after a long moment of silence. "Please tell me why running into another car is so important of my knowing."
He takes a deep breath. Maybe too long. Like he doesn't want to tell me. And honestly, I have no idea what to expect.
"Because Annie," he starts.
"Your parents were in that car."
