My Invisible Friends (Imaginary But Real)

That Joseph's Just Awful.

May 12

This morning Brienna freaked out over a text from Portia when she asked Portia where Sheyenne was. Portia said, "I thought she was with you". So Brienna called Joseph and Ms. Dolly heard her talking to him on the phone and it sounded like he wouldn't tell her where Shy was and Ms. Dolly shot right out of bed and went to get Sheyenne, even though Dolly was in her pajamas! When she came back, she was crying.

Sheyenne was with her but she looked completely and utterly humiliated and had a red scratch on her cheek. She wouldn't talk and we didn't know what to say to her, and she sat on the couch with Lynn comforting her, and then she laid down on the couch. I had no clue what to say to her, and I asked Lynn what I should say to her. Lynn said I should just leave Shy alone for a while. So I did, and Ms. Dolly still tried to talk to her. Sheyenne just wouldn't speak at all.

Brienna and I tried to talk to Shy in the bedroom and tell her she should still do her dance with Caileigh to Bulletproof, to show everyone that she was bulletproof even after what Joseph did to her. Then when Ms. Dolly came in, Ms. Dolly held Sheyenne and Lynn and I decided to let Dolly talk to her. So we left the room and I talked to Lynn about how Sheyenne really should do the dance competition because she would really wish she had if she didn't. Ms. Dolly came in there with us and she said Sheyenne shouldn't be dancing this time. But when Ms. Scarletissa came, I talked to her out on the porch about it before she even came in. She was so shocked about Joseph having Shy at his house, and I told her to try and convince Shy to keep dancing. Sheyenne needs to show everyone she's bulletproof.

Then Ms. Scarletissa went in the house and I took Shy out on the porch and asked her who she wanted to talk to her about what happened, because she had to talk to someone. She didn't say a thing. She and I went to get the mail and came back to the porch where Ms. Dolly was now standing. I told Shy to just type on Notes on her phone what she wanted, and she typed this big long thing about how she hated Ms. Dolly because Dolly was even with Joseph in the first place. I guess this wouldn't have happened if Dolly hadn't stayed with Joseph back in the fall, and he wouldn't have even done anything to Shy. Sheyenne said it was obvious Dolly still liked Joseph (which I don't think is true because of how much she loves Brad) because when Dolly walked in on Joseph doing that to Shy this morning, she hadn't looked as mad as Sheyenne expected her to. But I think she looked hurt though, and she took Sheyenne home. I wish I could tell Sheyenne that Dolly does not like Joseph at all, but she wouldn't believe me. She thinks Ms. Dolly still thinks Joseph is a good guy and wouldn't believe anything Shy said even though she saw it with her bare eyes. But I know Ms. Dolly loves Sheyenne and would protect her from that wicked Joseph. Sheyenne just wasn't making any sense. Then she said (or typed) that she wanted Lynn to talk to her, and I let Dolly come in and Lynn came out. While I was playing the song Bulletproof, trying to motivate Shy, Sheyenne wanted to go in and so we all went inside, and then while the song was still playing, Shy did a wonderful thing. She started dancing! She was brilliant! She still didn't talk, but she still is dancing I think!

Ms. Scarletissa went over more dance moves to Easy with me, Lynn, Bri, and Caitlyn after Caitlyn had come in. Ms. Dolly and Brad watched for a bit and then left on their late lunch date. Then Ms. Scarletissa left. Later, when Dolly and Brad got back, everyone left for showers except me and Karilee. I took a shower with her and then we got out. The others weren't back yet. When they did come back, Ms. Scarletissa and Caitlyn came, too. Then the Dazzling Divas and Marybeth (the birthday girl) came over. But there wasn't a point to them coming over because the channel for Dance Moms wasn't working. So they just had to stay in the bedroom and wait for us while we danced, with Ms. Scarletissa teaching us new moves and getting mad when we didn't get them right.

Soon, Ms. Dolly and Brad started to argue. Brad was telling Dolly she couldn't go to a party tonight, and she was arguing back, because she just wanted to go to a party and have fun. But Brad was worried about her getting drunk and hooking up with other guys, and she was about to argue that she wouldn't be doing that when he started to leave. He said she could hook up with anyone she wanted if he left. But she loves him...I guess he just worried about that because she's done it before, but that was when she was still single!! Lynn and I had to let Dolly go to the party after Brad left. Dolly got dressed and walked right out the door. What's worse is Brienna said Joseph was apparently going to the party and Lynn freaked out and texted Ms. Dolly because Dolly needs to stay away from him.
