Ridgewood High

Chapter 10

"You can't tell anyone you saw me here", she said whispering.

"Why are you whispering?, I asked. You do know we're in the ladies bathroom right?"

"Yes, but he has ears everywhere", kiara replied while washing her hands.

"Who's he? Are you talking about that guy I saw you with?", I questioned.

"Yes ! And I want you to stay away from him, I need both of you to".

She looked scared and lost. I wanted to help so I invited her to lunch.

~~~~~~~~

After I met with kiara, I had to find out who this guy is.

Meeting up with Rudy outside the hotel to go shopping, we talked about the whole situation and how our lives turned upside down.

Waking up this morning he asked what's on my mind lately. This was the time to ask him anything. I asked, "Do you have a twin brother?". He started laughing historically and asked if this was about last night 'thinking' that I saw a guy that looked just like him.

I said yes, telling the truth and he said not that he knows of, no, he doesn't have a twin. I said okay as we continued shopping.

It was getting close for us to go to college and I needed my own apartment with Rudy so I needed a job.

A jobs easy to find around here so I know I wouldn't have any trouble really.
~~~~~~~

A week later, we got back home seeing my dad still here. I was surprised.

There was so much going on at just this one moment.

The last 3 days we spent at Trump's hotel, I never saw kiara again and to come home finding my dad and mom actually talking for once is a miracle really.

"If they got back together, I really don't even wanna think about that", I thought.

Idk if I would refet to that as a horrible or good thing.
......

Helping packing our things inside, I brought my mom aside to talk to her. I told her that I need my birth certificate for applying for this job.

She said she'd give it to me but it took awhile to get it from her because of many confusions.

Seeing her showing me where it was, she had taken out two. I was the only child so I was confused why she had two birth certificates. She said one was my 'backup'.

Why would anyone need a backup BC?

But anyways as she hands be the BC, it looked funny to me like their was something missing from it. Like the gov. signature or something, or a code number.

But I took it anyways because I couldn't apply for this job without it.

~~~~~~~~~~
When I went to apply for the job interview, they checked if my B.C was real. Giving me back the B.C they told me they would call the police. I told them my own mother gave it to me and they told me I could go to jail for fraud. I took the B.C and rushed out the office mad as hell.

I immediately called Rudy and told him to meet me home.

What the hell is giooing on?
How can this be happening to me?
Why now?..?

All those thoughts were jammed in my head. I abrutly slammed the house door open and called my mother. I haven't seen her in months but we still stay in contact..

Meanwhile, explaining to Rudy what happened I started to calm down. He walked up to me, looked me in the eyes, and said, "I'm here". I stayed in his arms for awhile until I was off the phone with my "mother".

After, he asked, "What happened?".

I replied to him saying that she was not my real mother. Most of my life was a lie. I told him that I'm sick of it all and all the lies. I wanted a change for once.

He then replied to me by telling me that we should go on vacation and chear our heads for awhile.

I agreed then later in the night, we video chatted his sister then went to bed.
