Our Furious Life

Chapter 25

I went into my room and blasted my music into my headphones. My dad knocked on my door. Leave me alone! Melody open the door please. I sighed and got up from my bed, unlocking my door. He opened the door and closed it. Tess does not hate you. Why would you think that? Because! She's always on Ariana's side. She's never on my side. Every time Ariana does something she'll do it. But if I do something she won't. If Ariana says something about me, like say my outfit. She'll say it's ugly and Tess will laugh with her. But whenever I do something like that she'll say I'm mean and being rude and kiss up to Ariana. I'm done with it I said, scrolling down Instagram. Dad sat next to me. Well you put your phone down please. He said quietly. I put my phone on my lap and gave him a sad look. Why don't you just talk to her about it then? Dad, I have! So many times. She doesn't care. All she cares about is her and Ariana's relationship. So I might as well just stop trying. Dad looked at me. Don't say that. We're familia. Remember? I looked up at the ceiling. Yes! Dad. I know. I looked down at my lap. She should be the one having this talk. There was a long silence. Can I be alone now? He crossed his arms. What made you guys fight tonight he said agitated. I sighed. Yesterday I told her about Sean and I. She told me that we shouldn't be together and that he wasn't good enough for me. My dad looked confused. And? And, I said. Tonight when Ariana said that she liked Dylan she said they would be Great together and that they would last forever basically. My dad laughed a little. I gave him a confused look. What? Well, he said. I don't see what she's doing wrong. She's just giving her opinion. Are you kidding me. Your taking her side, oh my-, he cut me off. Sweetie I don't see why your so mad. Dad she never agrees with me! Ever. If I said I wanted pop corn she'd say "ohh no I don't want any pop corn" BUT, if five minutes later Ariana said she wanted pop corn she'd be like "yeah let's get some!". Its pissing me off it truly is. Dad sighed. Ok. I get your point now. I think you guys just need to talk things out. Ok? There was a long pause. Ok? He said stretching the K. I scoffed. I guess. It's not gonna work I whispered, while messing with my hands. Yes it will he said while getting up from my bed and kissing the top of my head.
