SWEET RELIEF

~(Chapter eighteen )~

Steph

For as long as I can remember, Stella and I have always done things together and the same way. She's the only sister I've ever and will ever know, so it hurts when she starts avoiding me.

We have the same black knotless braids for god's sake. We have almost matching everything and have even same earrings. That's weird but we are twins.

The whole weekend after the party, she's been quiet, rarely talks to me and this week as well. I tried talking to her on Wednesday but she blew me off. She's been avoiding the whole group even her boyfriend.

Karan has been trying to get her attention whatever means possible but to no avail. She's been distant even when they have assignments together.

"Okay, I'm done with this, why don't you tell us why you have been avoiding us?" I tell Stella as she ate. She looked at me for a split second then went back to eating. It was really getting on my nerves.

"Stop being a bitch sis, just talk cause one way or another it will find its way to your mouth." When she raised her head, I wanted to bury myself. Her glare was one of them that I feared.

"Don't talk to me and never call me a bitch you lunatic," with that she took her lunch and went to another table. I'm guessing it her friend cause she smiled once she sat down.

"Okay what's happening with you guys?"asked Anna," she can't seriously be mad at all you three. Must have fucked up real bad if she ignores you."

"By the way your braids look stunning," Anna exclaimed. "I wish I had nice hair to pull off both ways, I mean girl tell me the secret."

I laughed," it's just natural and it was Stella idea to braid. She wanted to try something new and well I did too."

She didn't speak to me even when we were in the salon. Damn, might have pissed her off more than I realized it. I'll have to talk to her this evening.

               ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I'm not to blame for that, I never wanted that for  myself Karan. You have crazy ex's who just want to make my life difficult, one of them has almost been successful. I'm tired."

"Are you saying that I put them up to that? You think I don't defend you, I speak up when you get insulted and I'm ready to fight. I'm just not sure you are willing to fight for us."

They were screaming at each other when I got home. I would have helped or tried to intervene but I knew my sister's temper. I excused myself and went to the kitchen. They however got louder.

"Fight for us, I kicked you stupid ex cause of grabbing my hair. Ooh please just cause you shut some people up during the party. The rumors were there for longer, it's like I am a rebound. You get tired of one then go to another. Karan I'm not a second option."

"You're not okay. Please believe me babe, I want you and only you."

"I think we need some distance for a while Karan. Please don't text or call me tonight. Good night," Stella went up the stairs their screaming party coming to an end.

"Fuck," I heard Karan shout.

"Just give her some time she'll come around," I tell Karan," just be patient with her."

He seemed surprised to see me,"ooh hi Steph, yeah I'll do that. I just don't know why she won't see that I don't want them, I want her. It's frustrating."

"I know my sister and I can tell you that she likes you. Just give her time, I mean you have crazy ex's, she'll be okay."

Seeing the way he was fighting for my sister, it made me wonder why Nick wouldn't fight for us. I just wanted some who wants me and values me.

"She's one lucky girl, she has someone willing to fight. I'm glad that your together." Karan just left the house looking sad, and I was very ready to reprimand my sister for making him sad.

Sometimes it's sad cause we can't always have what we want but I'll have to help her see that Karan was meant for  her. They deserved each other.

Sometimes we just needed a little push.
