Jade West
I never felt this tiredness before, but in reality, I'm always in pain.
Not only in physically but also emotionally. I know Cat will never understand that, but that's why l act so tough on the outside.
I don't want people to know I have a weakness because I don't want to lose to them.
I don't want people who pushes me to the limit just because they can.
Because they don't know what I've been through with my whole life....
It's like living in a nightmare all over again....
Somebody...
Someone....
Go away...

After I drop Cat in her apartment, she still unconscious and I have to carry her in her apartment.
I'll just have to deal with her tomorrow. I have matter to discuss anyway. She can't just keep fainting.
Then I remember that tomorrow, I'm supposed to be with my mom. It's in the custody because after they divorce, I was moved to my father because my mom don't have a regular job to raise me.
And I have to be with my mom every friday, saturday, and sunday. I shouldn't careless but it's kind a like a break from my father.
Which means I can go whenever I want. They don't seem cared about me. They have their own lives now. My father had his own family and got a job, again. I don't hate my mom that much.
Sometimes I wonder if any of them really do care for me. Or maybe because I'm just overreacting much.
Why do I even bother.
When I'm already at my father's house to get my stuff when I see my little brother watching the T.V.
"What you watching?" I ask in an eerie voice. In his surprise he almost spill his soft drink. I stiffle a laugh.
"What now? I'm busy watching." he whined.
"Should you be packing up for tomorrow?" He ask.
"Yeah."
"Good." He sight. I was just going to my room when he called me.
"What is it this time?" I nearly shout. Thank god my father and his wife are out.
"Aren't you tired from all of this?"
"What do you mean by that?" that was weird for him to ask that.
"Going to Mom's house and we always come back here." he reply.
"What on earth come to your senses and ask me that question?" I demand.
"Just saying, I'll just go the room." he reply before leaving me standing, thinking about what he just said to me.
Still don't know how we're related to each other other than the fact that he always the scaredy one.
Some part of me is afraid that he's growing up so fast. The good part is that I don't have to worry about it.
Then I hear the garage door opening
Great! My father and his wife is here! What ever shall i do?
"Jade, your home early. Want to stay for dinner before you guys leave?" his wife ask.
"No thanks, I'm not that hungry anyway."
"Are you sure? Maybe you should just eat for a while."
"Maybe they should be get going. Your mother is apparently waiting for them." My father suggest.
"But dear...."
"Well, I better start packing then." I said smilingly as I leave them in a hurry to my room.
My father really doesn't want me around his house. Not my fault if I'm stuck in this nightmare house.
Especially when Dinner, I always never ever enjoyed it. I always ruined it says my father.
Can't blame me for being me is what I reply to him. He values his family, though its already not a happy one. He keep losing job and pretend that he can find a better one.
For every job he gets fired at.
I especially hate when his wife gets in my nerves. Acting so nice and delicate like she can be that all she wants to.
"I'm all pack up!" shouted my brother.
Perfect timing.
"Okay! I'm done packing too! We're leaving now!" I shouted as my brother protested.
"But I'm hungry." he whined.
"We'll just eat at Mom's place." I suggested as I start the engine and drive as far away from this place.

Make a wish, a wish that you want.
Even if its just a myth, keep hold of it.

Thank god I'm out on that twisted house.
Well, I'm always glad to be out of there even if its just for three days.
I can't literally wait till I'm 18 so I can live on my own. Forever.
As expected, She's waiting for us outside her house. As always I guess.
"Hmm? Nobody inform me that you guys are early today?" she ask frankly. My brother hurriedly hug her and went to his room.
"We skip dinner with them." I reply as I get my stuff.
"Why? Jade, are you getting stress lately."
"That's have to do with skipping dinner?"
"But you are going to eat here, right?" She smiled. I nodded and we headed inside.
Up until now, I never understand how my parents just fall in love with each other at the same time getting divorce when I was only ten years old and my brother only was months old.
I was the witness when the two of them are in love and how they fall apart. But I guess feelings never last.
***
I'm not good with people, and I don't want to interact them. And yet, I'm very concerned about what others think of me.
Moments later in my room, Cat just texted me.
Jade! I have to tell you something!!!!
Amateur.
Just spill it! I texted back.
I forgot... Can you text back? She reply.
You're kidding me?! I always wonder why I befriended her.
Oh well, back in the dwell world I go before the weekend is over and I have to memorize that stupid script.
