How life goes on

My dad and papá are panicking. I'm not surprised I mean wouldn't you? My dad is going to the grocery store so I ask “May I come with you? I need some fresh air.” He responds with “of course you can!” “Thank you dad.” I say “Adiós cariño” my papa says (Bye honey) “adios papa” I say waving my papa goodbye I quickly grab my sketchbook and leave. On the way from walking back I check my phone for any emails on school but instead I get zoom invites and google meets. Most are from the teachers to have a meeting with my dads. Then out of nowhere my dad says “Aspen watch out!” Then I bump into someone and our foreheads hit each other and I say “I am so sorry are you hurt?” They looked up and our eyes met. I felt like some kind of spark. I don't know how else to explain what happened. We were paralized there was this silence. “Are you guys okay?” my dad says I snap out of my gaze “Yes. thank you dad” I look over and the boy is picking up my sketchbook looking into the opened pages. He closes the book and hands it to me. “Nice sketches” he said “I like them” I say “thanks” My dad jumps in “Can we go home now?” “Oh yeah” I said I quickly grab a phone off the ground and run all the way home with my dad being a slow poke the entire time. I get home and flop on my bed thinking of the boys' hazel green eyes as they stare into mine. Red spreads across my face as my brother walks in and asks “Whatcha thinkin about?” “Nothing” I say he looks down to where my phone is and says “Did you get a new case?” “No” I said confused “Well that's not your phone case.” he said as I looked down at the phone. It is not my phone. “Ah shoot!” I say “I must have picked up that guy's phone by mistake.” My brother walks out not caring that I might need a new phone “Bring” “Bring” the phone rings ‘Should I answer it?’ I ask myself, I look at the caller ID “That's my phone number. He must have realized I took the wrong phone.” I answer and say “Hello?” “Hi” the boy says he seems calm and his voice is not as deep as before. I snap out of my hallucination. “Hey i think i took your phone” I said “Yeah you did” he giggled it wasn't a full laugh just a small giggle “Sorry about that” I say “If you want it back right now i'll be happy to meet you somewhere” “Okay where is best for you?” he asked “Do you know where Lincoln park is?” I asked “Yeah it's pretty close to me.” he says “So your name is Aspen?” “Yeah how did you know?” I asked “Your dad yelled it” he said “Well I didn't get your name.” I say “August call me Auggie please” “Well I better get going” I say trying to end the conversation “Kay see you at the park” He said “Okay bye!” I say
