Hoofdstuk 25

‘Why did you actually went to Great Britain?’, Eleanor asks
‘I wanna meet Liam’, Rowen answered
‘But why did you never returned?’
‘My parents lied to me about my real family. Even about my birthday. I’m mad at them now, and I like it here. That’s why I stay here’. After two hours talking and laughing, Harry and Louis return, but they brought Zayn, Niall and Liam with them, and Perrie and Daniëlle were there to? First they talk and Rowen and Liam stand separate from the group
‘So how was your day with Eleanor?’, Liam asks
‘Good, it was really fun! So how was your call with Loni?’, Rowen asks
‘Good, it was really fun! She’s a nice girl’
‘That’s why she’s my DBFF’
‘And that is…?’
‘My Directioner Best Friend Forever’
‘Ok, original. Should we go back to the others?’
‘Ok’, and they walk to the rest. They sit spread in four coaches who stand in front of each other. On the left side of Rowen sits Eleanor and on her right sits Harry. Right in front of her sits Liam and next to him Daniëlle and Niall. In the left coach sits Louis and in the right on, Zayn and Perrie. They talk and suddenly Liam says to Rowen: ‘Shouldn’t you better go home once?’
‘I am home’, Rowen answers
‘But I mean: go back to your adoption parents’
‘Do you want me to leave?’, Rowen asks unbelievable
‘No, of course we don’t want you to go’, Eleanor says, ‘but you just can’t live like this way. You can’t hate them forever. Maybe you don’t miss them, but they miss you’. It was only Eleanor who was talking? The other girls were just… looking at her like another girlfriend of theirs boyfriend’s friend. Daniëlle and Perrie were quite close, but none of the girls were so close as Rowen Eleanor. For Rowen it was the first time she saw Perrie and Daniëlle in real
‘I don’t care if they hate me or not. They’ve lied to me, my whole life long!’
‘Maybe you should call them’, Liam proposes
‘I’ll get a phone’, Louis says and he jumps out of the coach to get a phone. When he gives it to Rowen, she sights
‘You can do this’, Harry says and he takes her hand. She types in ‘+3259 26 7…’, than she stops and says: ‘I’ll call them when you aren’t looking at me like that’, and she lies the phone on the table in front of her. Liam takes the phone and gives it to her, but she doesn’t take it
‘Otherwise you’ll never call’. She sights and takes the phone. She types in the rest of the number and waits
‘How should I call her?’, Rowen asks
‘With the phone you have in your hand’, Louis says
‘No, I mean how should I name her?’
‘Just say “mom” like you are used to’, Perrie says
‘But she isn’t my mom’, Rowen says, ‘she’s my adoption mom’
‘Than name her like that’, Perrie says
‘But that is so long’
‘Just call her “woman”’, Louis says. Everybody looks strange at him
‘What?’, he asks
‘name her by her first name’, Liam says
Rowen presses on the green phone. It calls. She is quite nervous. Will her mo… adoption mother be mad at her because she left, o will she be happy to hear her voice again? Rowen is so nervous and she pinches in Harry’s hand. He smiles and strokes over her hear. Then she hears a voice saying ‘Hallo, met Claire. Wie is dit?’
