"Callie! Callie! Callie come back here! Please! Don't run away! At least not forever!" "Please Callie! I still need you!" Ugh. Brianna. How could she not tell me? Just because you're two minutes older than me doesn't mean you know all the growup before me! I mean c'mon! We both eleven both have blue eyes and curly blonde hair we're both in 5th grade! And yet my mom told her and not me that every child she had ever given birth to was worthless in her life.
Worthless. And yet Brianna still didn't tell me for two weeks after until she accidentally said it. I was worthless to my dad, my brothers and sisters and even my own mother! Except Brianna I think I'm worthless to everyone in the world. And if Brianna wasn't my twin I think she'd think I was worthless too.
I mean I guess I can see why my mom can't spend time with me because she's looking after 80 other kids while pregnant but saying I'm worthless? I mean I feel sorry for the baby she is carrying right now. Is he or she going to be worthless too? Probably. After every baby is born she doesn't give a second thought to it and goes and gets pregnant again.
Right now I'm running from my house into the woods to clear my head of all that's happened today and just think. I am now starting to feel bad for Brianna. I should probably head back now. Oh yea and wanna know how this whole thing got started? Well my mom's ex husband dared her to beat a world record and go so far over the old record that it would be kept for a lifetime.
Let's just say mom's had it rough from the start. Having her father abandon her and her mother when she was born then her mom never having a chance to see her from working all the time and then doing whatever she wanted. Which got her into all sorts of trouble like smoking her first cigarette at ten and getting addicted. She's now over it. It's a miracle she still gave birth to healthy babies. Having her first non medication drugs at twelve and having her first sip of alcohol at her thirteenth birthday. Plus she broke the law and got married and had a baby at thirteen. So yea her life was messed up from the start.
I turned back to Brianna after hearing the desperation in her voice. She doesn't deserve this. I thought and turned back around and ran back.
