Chapter 27: Car Wash

Ashley started driving the car.

"Can you turn on the radio?" I asked.

"Sure," Ashley grumbled. She turned on the radio.

The song 'Car Radio' by twenty one pilots was playing on the radio.

"So... when we get home you'll do your things and I'll wash the car." I said.

"I guess. I'm going over to a friends house." Ashley mumbled. "I'll drop you off at our house and I'll drive to a friends house." 

Me and Ashley were silent the whole way. Except the car radio was playing 'Car Radio'. Ashley drove to our house.

"Here you go." Ashley said.

I got out of the car. "Bye." I waved.

Ashley waved back and drove off.

Dad's car was standing in the driveway. It started snowing a little bit. I got to work. First I grabbed the hose and soap. I started  spraying Dad's car with water. Dad came out.

"Good job." Dad praised. "Where's your sister?"

"Ashley? Oh, she's at a friends house." I answered.

"She's supposed to be in her room doing her math homework!" Dad exclaimed, starting to get mad.

He walked back to our house. Mom was standing there.

"Don't be so harsh on Vanessa." I heard her say. "She did nothing wrong" Mom said.

Dad didn't say anything back. He just walked right into the house. I got back to work, spraying the car and washing it with a sponge.

I shivered. Just then my phone rang. I didn't answer it. I wasn't in the mood right now. All I wanted to do was get this car cleaned up.

I scrubbed the car with a sponge. Harder. Harder. I was a little furious at Dad when he screamed at me and Ashley. But I guess there is nothing I can do about it. I think Ashley is pretty furious too.

I was done washing and cleaning the car when I heard a ping! I bet that was the person who called me. I didn't put the hose or sponge away. I walked inside the house, cold. I ran to my room. 

I couldn't take it anymore. Dad screaming at me and Ashley. I decided to take a nap. I fell on my bed and took a nap with my coat still on me.
