twenty-two. anger

real life !
july twenty-fifth 2023

Kylie West woke up at 9:15 in the morning, the first thing she went to do was check her phone, but she noticed it had been taken off the charger and died overnight... weird.

she shrugged it off, assuming it was pebbles playing with the wire again and accidentally unplugging it.

after she plugged it back in she walked to the bathroom, waking herself up by washing her face, choosing to brush her teeth after she ate

when she came back from the bathroom, her phone had turned back on and was at 7 percent. while keeping it on the charger, kylie sat on the edge of her bed to check her phone

the first thing she did was check her texts, specifically checking if nelson texted her... which he didnt, that was odd.

kylie decided to click on his name anyway, and was met with a conversation she never remembered happening.

her heart pounded in rage and sadness, her lip quivering as she read over his last text repeatedly. 'fine kylie, i love you, we're over, goodbye.'

it wasnt only the 'we're over' part of the sentence that broke her heart, it was also the 'i love you' part. they had only been together a week, so they'd never shared those three words with each other

a tear spilled from her eye, prompting many more to follow. though she didnt feel much sadness anymore, she just felt anger

someone had to have done this, kylie knew for a fact that at 2:42am she was knocked out cold.

it was jake. it had to have been. gosh, kylie should have known that he wasnt cool with them dating.

kylie left her phone on the charger upstairs, storming downstairs where she knew jake would be.

"are you fucking kidding me, jake ?! you are such a dick !" she screamed as she entered the living room where all of her family sat

jake furrowed his brows, extremely confused by why she was screaming at him, sure they argued yesterday but nothing happened after that.

he tried to think of something he couldve done, but nothing came to mind. "what are you talking about, kylie ?" he asked her

she huffed in anger, now he was playing dumb ?! how stupid did he think she was ?

"im talking about how you took my phone in the middle of the night and told nelson i wanted to break up with him ?! now we're over and he blocked me !" kylie screamed

shannon joined into the conversation upon hearing those words, "im sorry, jake, you did what ?" she raised her eyebrows at her son

he raised his hands in surrender, "i dont know what shes talking about, mom ! i was asleep, we can ask rosie when she comes back from the bathroom" 

kylie scoffed at the name. "and you're such a fucking hypocrite, you can date rosalie while she was my bestfriend but i cant date nelson ?!"

luke stood up, knowing kylie was at her breaking point, if she didnt stop yelling she would break down and cry.

"kitty, go upstairs, please. i need you to go to your room and breathe, just relax. we will deal with all of this later, okay ?" luke spoke to her in a calm voice

her lip quivered, now that she was silent and the anger began to fade, now came the sadness and realization that she and nelson were no longer together

as kylie turned around to go back to her room and calm down, rosalie walked out with a smirk, making kylies anger bubble back up
