The. Text. I just kept staring at it. I couldn't believe what I was reading.
Unknown: Hey it's Sadie. I hope I got the number right!!!
What? Ms. Duece didn't want to pay a big bill so since I was the oldest she got me a phone. She didn't bother getting Sadie one, even after we basically begged her, because me and Sadie would always be together so she didn't see the need in getting her one.
Me: SAY?? IS IT REALLY YOU?
I had and instant replay.
Unknown: MY KATE!! YES IT IS ME!!
Okay now that I knew it was her I programmed her into my contacts.
Me: How did you find my number? How are you? Wait...how do you have a phone?
My Boooo: Skype...duh!! I'm alright. And Ms. Duece got me one since I'm now the oldest and since I leave the center a lot...if my chores are done.
Yes I put her name as my boo. It's an inside joke!!
Me: Awww..I'm happy for you!! And Skype?
My Boooo: Yeah...you put your number if you wanna sync your contacts to your Skype account. DUHHH!!! :)
Me: Oh yeah!! I forgot! I miss yeww sooo much!!!
My Boooo: I miss yeww too. You should come visit me!!
Me: I'm leaving for California some time tomorrow, but I'm almost finished packing so I will get dad to bring me over in a minute.
My Booo: Don't sweat it! You don't have to come. If you need to pack then pack we can talk another time.
Me: Nope I'm coming over soon. Love you!! I will text you when I'm on my way!!
I locked my phone and threw it on my bed. I ran to my bathroom and packed my curling iron and straightener. I closed my suitcase and ran to the living room where Connor is lounging on the couch on his phone.
"Hey daddy can you bring me back to the center?"
"What you wanna go back?" Connor was now standing in front of me with tears brimming his eyes.
"No no!! I just wanna go visit Sadie! I would never leave you and the boys!!" I said while wrapping Connor in a hug.
"Oh okay. Yeah I guess. You got everything packed?"
"Yup!!" I replied running to the door.
Connor clicked off the TV and we raced to the elevator. We pressed the button and soon arrived on the first floor where we raced again to the car. I won, of course, and we were off to the center. I pulled out my phone to text Sadie.
Me: I'm on my way be there in a few minutes!! :)
My Boooo: Alright see you in a few!!
The drive back to the center was LONGGGG....or so it felt. It was actually on like a 10 minute drive.
Connor pulled into the driveway.
"Okay. I'm gonna drop you off. Text me when you are ready for me to come get you. I'm gonna run to the mall and pick up some new clothes. Need anything?"
"Nope!! Thanks!!" I yelled to Connor because I was already on my way to the center's door.
Connor drove off and I ran up to the door. I went to go turn the doorknob but it was swinging open.
"KATE!!"
"SADIE!"
I wrapped my arms tight around her. I missed my other half.
"Come in!" She motioned for me to come in.
I walked in and Ms. Duece walked to us.
"Back already Kate?" Ms. Duece said with a smirk. It was kinda like 'I told you so'.
"No." I plainly stated. "I came to visit my sister." I said while I propped up one of my arms on Sadie's shoulders.
Ms. Duece nodded her head at me and turned to Sadie.
"Your chores finished?"
"Yes ma'am." Sadie said with kindness in her voice. I knew it was all for show. Sadie HATES her!! She is the one who came up with the nickname Ms. Douche.
"Alright then. Have fun girls." After that she turned and her heels clicked along the floor. All of a sudden, I was basically jumped on by kids.
"I missed you Katie!!"
"How's your new life?"
"Does your new daddy love you?"
"I hope he hasn't hurt you!"
"I miss you so much Katie!!"
"I love you!!"
I just laughed at all of the questions.
"I missed you too. My new life is wonderful. I'm pretty sure he loves me. He hasn't hurt me. I missed you sooo much too. And I love you too!" I said to all of the kids surrounding me. They were all smiley and happy.
"GET TO WORK BRATS OR NO FOOD!!" Ms. Duece yelled to the kids.
"Bye Katie."
"Bye!"
"See ya."
"Love you!"
"Have fun!"
"I will miss you. Bye!!" The last one called and then they all disappeared to their work.
Sadie grabbed my hand and pulled me up the stairs. We went right to her room that used to be ours. She opened the door revealing my old side of the room...empty and hers all Tumblry and stuff.
I walked to my old bed and flopped down. She did the same but on her bed.
"So..she's being more of a douche than ever now huh?" I said with a smile while sitting up.
"You know it!!" She replied back with a finger snap. JUST LIKE RICKY DOES!!
We laughed for minutes. Finally we both calmed down.
"Wanna do our dance routine?" I ask hoping she would agree.
"OF COURSE!!" She yelled. She grabbed her ballet flats and I grabbed her back up pair.
I pulled out my phone and pulled up our song. Fifteen by Taylor Swift. Me and her then pull the beds off to the side like usual and push the desks to the corner. We slipped on our shoes and got in our places. The songs starts.
Take a deep breath as you walk through the doors it's the mornin' of your very first day
Say hi to your friends you ain't seen in a while
Try to stay out of everybody's way
We started off at our smoothe pace. The song doesn't really apply to us, but we both love it. Neither me or her have been to a real school before. We've only done online classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
It's freshman year and you're gonna be here for the next four years in this town.
We danced our little hearts out. The song was one of our first bonds when she came to the center. It brings me to my happy place. Kinda like Tumblr helps Connor, but it's this song for me.
I remember when we were 8 year old girls dancing around our bedroom in ballet flats. Laughing. Smiling. Singing at the tops of our lungs. I remember when life was that simple....
