Her World

Chapter Thirty-One

Chapter 31

It had been month and a few days since the shooting and Megan telling me what she did. To be honest I do blame her for this entire thing but at the same time I don’t. In a way she did help me to find out the truth but at the same time she lied and pretended to be someone else, it hurt to think that she just couldn’t come to me and tell me yet she played silly games with my head.

Also my ‘dad’ also known as Frank was pretty much sent straight to prison with attempted murder, he of course was found guilty. I was glad really, he may be my real father but he never lived up to it with me, I didn’t even know the man. Though I felt sorry for Kyle, he had now lost both his parents; I don’t even know where he is living.

He came to see me a few times in the hospital but since I had been out I hadn’t seen him but that’s probably because I was put to bed rest with either Melissa or Jake by my side while Noah guarded the door. It was pretty annoying but I was happy that I was finally getting on with my sister; she had changed and actually acted like an older sister instead of a bitch. Even she and Noah were finally getting nicely along and Noah told me that he was going to give it a go. 

I guess everybody can change, even my parents. Who might I add didn’t even come to see me while I was lying in a hospital practically on my death bed, well not death bed but I was shot! They didn’t even care; I never got to speak to them only Melissa did. They said that this holiday cost a lot so they couldn’t really afford to waste the money for their child who nearly died. To be honest I don’t want them to come back at all, I don’t need them anymore.

It was weird actually, even though my life has been pretty hectic these past few months and things had moved rather quickly between me and Jake, everything seemed to be better for once. I was happy, when I looked in the mirror; I had the light back into my eyes. That spark that was missing now sparkled and my hair had a natural bounce to it, but that’s because of all the healthy things I have been eating. Doctors orders and all that but I really didn’t mind. 

But today was February 14th 2013 and I was finally allowed to go back to school, Melissa wanted me to wait until next Monday but I was itching to go back. Something just felt different this time, and I felt different. I needed to catch up anyway; I had work sent home to me so I was far behind but still.

I walked over to my wardrobe and picked out some blue skinny jeans and a loose fitting white top that had a black collar around the top with silver metal circles on. I grabbed some clean underwear from my drawer before scurrying across the landing to the bathroom.

I did what I had to do then slipped on my clothes before heading back to my room. I shut my door behind me then made my way over to my cream curtains on the back wall, I pulled then open to let the rays from the morning warm sun light the room. Even though it was still winter, the weather had been a weird one. It was still a bit nippy out but it was warm at the same time. I love the sun; it changed your mood completely.

A small smile slipped on my face before turning around to my now bright room and grabbed my makeup bag then placed myself in front of the mirror.  I brushed the knots from my hair leaving it flowing down my back. My hair had gone a lighter shade of brown but had a nice shine to it, it was soft to touch and it had a light bounce. I clipped some hair at the front into a messy quiff, sweeping it off my face. My skin wasn’t too bad either, I hadn’t had any spots and it was smooth and clear. Melissa said it was from my diet though; everything was balanced to the fruit and the fats.

I applied some light foundation and some mascara, still didn’t like make up very much, plus Jake didn’t really like it. He always told me that I was beautiful just the way I am so didn’t need some cake my face in make-up.
