As I'm rushing down the stairs with all my stuff from the bathroom; going into the kitchen, I decide to pull out my phone to see if I have any messages. I notice one from my Twitter account, so here's what it said:
"Oh shit!!! I'm freaking out right now!!! #AlexFromTarget followed my twitter, mom!!!" I scream so both my parents will hear me.
Then another message comes in. Here's what it said:
@AlexLeeWorld: Send me your pic. Love ya, Jamie! :) <3
I stand there and talk to myself, then my dad walks in. He is the type of person who doesn't care about me or my mother; so he just pushes me aside stomping into the kitchen.
"Ya know Jamie, ya really need to stop being a crazy fucking piece of shit. Ya got me!!!" My dad starts and then I grab my stuff and head out the door so I won't have to hear my parents argue.
"Hey!!! Don't walk out of here-" continues my dad; Michael Morelock; as I shut the door on his thought and locking it behind me then walking to my car.
I finally reply to Alex's message with my photo captioning it as:
It's my final month of High School. I can't wait! Love ya more then anythin'!!! <3
I start up my car then drive off to school. That's when I hear my phone buzzing again; I ignore this time and continue driving into the school parking lot.
Once I find a place to park, I take the keys out of the ignition and slide them in my pocket. Then I answer the message, it read:
@AlexLeeWorld: Ya look so beautiful Jamie. Thank u for the pic. :)
I slide my phone back into my pocket and head into the school to walk to my 1st period. When I get there, I notice that everyone is looking at me; I'm standing there wondering 'what's up with everybody'.
A girl comes over to me and asks me to pull out my phone so I could show her the message I sent to Alex. Then she asks me if I'm really texting the real #AlexFromTarget that someone got a selfie of and got it going viral. I reply with a simple 'yes' and then smile, then walk to my seat.
As I sit in my office waiting to start my shift at Target, I can't stop thinking about Jamie Morelock's picture she texted me. I pull it up again and then start to save it onto my phone so I could tweet to the world.
Alex Lee @AlexLeeWorld: . @jmorelock_37 is a lovely person I've ever met on the interwebs. I wish we could meet sometime over the summer. Love ya baby! :) <3
The time is finally 8:30AM, I walk into the main store and go into check-out aisle 7. As I'm starting to wait for customers to purchase, I get a little off-track and daze about my future wife: Jamie; I already know she is definitely the one.
I think to myself: "how can I love someone as much as I love 18-year old Jamie?"
As I'm just finishing my school hours of my final day before graduation. My teacher; Mrs. Lawrence; explains to all seniors that we were allowed to exit the class first. I decide to DM Alex and say that I'm graduating, here's what I said:
Mrs Lawrence just pointed to all seniors that we were gonna leave school before the younger class men does. That means Imma graduatin' tomorrow, Alex!!! I can't wait to drive down to Texas and see you!!! Love ya. <3 :@jmorelock_37
Then I notice his tweet mentioning me:
. @jmorelock_37 is a lovely person I've ever met on the interwebs. I wish we could meet sometime over the summer. Love ya baby! :) <3
I suddenly put my retweet on it then reply to it saying:
Paper or plastic | Jamie Morelock @jmorelock_37:
Bet on it Alex!!! Love ya too. <3
I slide my phone back into my pocket and then see other seniors walking out the classroom doors, so I decide to follow them out (I'm a senior as well). My teacher; Mrs. Lawrence; shakes our hands as soon as we pass her, and I also give her a hug for a great year.
As I'm walking out of the school doors at 3:05PM, I get to my car and wonder what will I'm gonna be doing with the rest of my life after I graduate; and wondering if my future will see me graduate, but I have this thought:
"How can he? He has to work, he can't make time to come visit me. Anyway, I'll be up in Texas the next day to meet him."
I start up my car and drive myself home hoping to not walk in on arguing about who-knows-what. As I get home, I notice my mom; Kayla Morelock; is standing at the doorway waiting to congratulate me.
We both hug and then I got find my father to give him a hug as well, but I can't find him anywhere. I look all around the house, but still no trace of him. I think to myself:
"Maybe he went out and got a huge pint. And then got killed in an accident on the way home. How am I supposed to get through my speech tomorrow?"
I walk up to my room and shut the door, then start crying on my bed. As I awake, I think of all the good times me and my dad had together when he was sober from abuse and alcohol; as I'm scrolling through my photos of those moments.
"I can't believe I woke up without eating anything last night. Well today's the day, today's the day life changes completely." I tell myself as I start getting dressed for graduation then grab my cap and gown.
I walk out to my car once again, and then drive to my graduation ceremony. I finally get there and notice there's a huge line of students from class of 2015 waiting to enter the stands.
I pull into a parking space and get out then check my phone for messages; there's one from Alex, but I don't answer it this time. Instead, I wait til the end of the ceremony.
Once everyone is up and sitting in their seats ready to graduate, I start getting a little nervous that I might forget what I was gonna say during my speech. The principle finally calls me down after the music to receive my diploma.
I walk down those white steps and take it from his hands, then he tells me to stand in front of the mic and give my senior speech. The speech lasts for a few minutes since I've been thanking my family and paying tribute to my --- possibly --- dead father and then getting to the part where I reminisce on my years of school.
As I finish my speech, I step to the left side of the podium and take my final graduate bow and everyone gets up out of their seats giving me a standing O. I walk off the stage and head out to my car, then drive home and pack my bags to move into Texas where Alex is probably waiting for our official meet up.
