The Missing Piece: My Other Half (A Twin Story)

Getting Marley Help

Marley's Pov:

A few hours later I wake up to hearing voices downstairs coming from a Vent in my Bedroom it sounded like Taylor and our Mom talking. I got up and quickly showered and changed into more cleaner clothes. I put on leggings and a nice Top that had different shades of Aqua Blue on and made my way downstairs towards the Kitchen.

It smelled like Taylor was starting to Cook something was it her famous Cinnamon Rolls? Because those were to die for! Taylor loved to Bake things. They had been talking but immediately stopped when I entered the Kitchen Area. Taylor looked up at me with concern written on her face. But that Concern was quickly replaced by a warm smile and he gestured for me to join them and into having some Cinnamon Rolls. She asked how did I sleep and I told her I had slept good.

We sat at the Kitchen Table I could sense that Taylor and Mom wanted to talk to me about something but wasn't sure how to bring it up. "So, um Mom told me earlier that Tree did something to make you uncomfortable and that's why you left the conversation early. Mars, what's going on between you and Tree? You can tell me everything, I promise you we will not Judge you or mock you in anyway".promised Taylor she pulled me into a hug.

They had the right to know everything that had happened at the Priemiere and while the Tour is happening. Marley bit her lip and sighed nervous about telling them things because they had known Tree longer than they had known her.What if they didn't believe her? She bit her lip nervously before speaking she hated ratting someone out even if they are in the wrong. Marley began speaking up "It all had started back at the Movie Priemiere last October. I had been so excited about attending it and meeting Taylor's Fans. I got to see the Concert Film without any problems going to the Bathroom afterwards was when I ran into problems with Tree".

Taylor listened to her Sister and kept encouraging her to continue and go on telling them. They're expressions remained serious but careing. Marley continued more "I went to the Restroom to go use it and quickly meet up with you and Mom and Dad afterwards, when I went to go use it, I overheard Tree talking bad about me to some of Taylor's Crew and Dancers. She said really bad things to me to some of the Dancers and Crew Members in the Bathroom. " I looked at Taylor who was still listening I could tell that she is very pissed at Tree because she had that Tight Lipped expression.

Marley continued on "Tree said all kinds of bad things about me. She said that I didn't matter to Taylor that I was just a Publicity Stunt and a Distraction. She also had said that I had gained some weight and that Taylor couldn't have a Fat Backup Singer. I'm not fat. I gained some weight over Christmas but it's nothing that I can't lose if I work out more. She said that I was going to become nothing but a constant problem to Taylor and she thinks I will only drag Taylor down a Dark path".

Taylor exchanged a look with they're Mom. Both Taylor and her Mom are pissed at Tree and and you could tell it in they're face. Taylor's other hand grew a tight fist when Marley would tell her everything Tree had said in the Bathroom. She was schocked that her long time Publicist would do this even more schocked that some of her Crew and Dancers were involved to she would have to Fire them as well. "Marley, if you remember who all was in the Bathroom and talking bad about you can you tell me they're names? Because I want to Fire them just like I did with Tree. Everyone who works with me knows by watching Miss Americana that I don't stand for any Bullying".

Marley thinks back to that Night and recalls the names.She gives the names to Taylor "I feel terrible for ratting them out. But I don't want this to happen to anyone else. And I know that you would do something about it. And I am sorry I didn't come forward sooner I just didn't want to bother you that Night with my problems and be a Burden. You looked so happy and you were having a great time and I didn't want to ruin that".

Taylor listened to her Sister and hugged her even tighter "Your never a Burden to me so don't say that okay? I would drop everything to help you Mars. Your Family and Family is always going to come first no matter what".she then added " What they did is very wrong and shouldn't have happened. Anyone who works for me knows good and well that I don't tolerate any Bullying. I want everyone to get along and work together as a Team. I will fix this so that you won't have this problem ever again". Taylor looks at her Sister Marley looked so exhausted and stressed out by all of this.

Marley had even told her how Tree had acted while they were on Tour doing things to purposely sabotage her job as a Background Singer and making her mess up on purpose. She also mentioned that Tree had said if she kept getting any Fatter she was going to have to get a Plus Sized Wardrobe for Marley to fit in. Taylor wasn't happy at all about Tree's behavior. In fact her hand kept turning into a Fist which indicated she wanted to hit something. The Oven's Timer went off signalling that the Cinnamon Rolls is done. Taylor briefly went to go take the Cinnamon Rolls out and put them on the Counter top to Cool down before she added Icing to them then went back over to Marley after cutting the Stove off.

"I know what else Tree did to you Mars. She did so much more than just Bullying you. She triggered your Anorexia into coming back and I know the signs of it because I used to suffer from the same problem. I to had to get help for it. "

"What am I going to? I don't want to be sent away somewhere and not see any of you for Months.Im scared of what I might have to go through and I don't want to go through it alone". Said Marley.

Taylor gave her Sister another hug "We definitely aren't sending you away to anywhere where you won't see us. You can get Treatment for Anorexia right here and while being on Tour with me. We do have a Family Dr that can tell you what you need to do. Most likely you'll need to go to Therapy a couple times during the Week, and take Medicine for Anorexia. Then we'll need to get you at a healthy weight. This is not something you get over in just one Night or in a Month it takes time. "

Marley nodded "I don't want this getting around Social Media or outside of our Family and Friends. It's already embarrassing enough having this problem. If anyone else found out they would think less of me".

Andrea tried her best comforting her Daughter "We understand Marley. Taylor too kept this private until she felt comfortable talking about it in a Documentary.  You can talk about it on your own terms. And nobody will think less of you if they do then they don't need to be a part of your life".

After we talked we had some Cinnamon Rolls afterwards and switched to a better conversation Topic about what Taylor was planning for her Secret Session coming up.
