DEMI
"Can you drop me at Sam's"
She does not even turn my way before saying,
"No"
"Why", I ask feeling extremely confused.
"I'm busy".
"But you are going out", I say.
Didn't she know how much I liked Sam? Didn't she know that we don't cancel on each other, ever?.
"So"?
"Georgina, you are being unreasonable now. I just asked for a ride"
"Why can't Sam come and get you"?
Was she dumb? Sam's fourteen.
"Sam can't drive".
"See, you both are too young to date", she says.
I was getting very very annoyed. This was not like Georgina. What was wrong with her today?.
"That's none of your business".
"I don't want it to be, but it's coming in my way and disturbing me", she rolls her eyes.
"I don't know what your problem is. You just have to drop me on the way. You don't even have to take a different road or something. So technically, in not coming in your way or disturbing you", I shrug my shoulders.
"I don't care, I'm not taking you".
"Why do you have to act like a bitch"?
"Shut up".
I make a face at her. After ten minutes I start again.
"Can you please take me there"?
"Well, I said no two seconds ago, didn't I?"
"But I don't get it".
"Which part of I'm not taking you do you not understand?"
"All of it?"
"Ugh God, why are you so annoying"?
"Why are you so mean"?
"Atleast I don't pretend to be miss-im so innocent-my soul is so pure"
I was so close to losing my temper, so close that it was taking all of me to not say something I would regret later. Or break her nose, for that matter.
"Could you atleast try and reason out why you don't want to take me. Something reasonable please, so that I could at least try to understand", I say at last.
"Fine, I don't want to take you because I'm going out with my friends and I don't want them to see you because I'm embarrassed of you. There you go, something completely valid and reasonable"
I just stand there for a second not understanding the gravity of her words until it punched me in the gut.
How could she? How could she say that to me?
The fact that she was calm and absolutely not mad made me shiver because it was not impulsive.
She wasn't lying.
My sister was embarrassed of me.
"Fuck you, Georgina", I say before walking out of the room and slamming the door with all my strength.
