"mom!" i groaned, "what do you expect me to do? i can't force them to give me the job." i fell into the couch, burying my face in my hands.

"your sister, emily, always knew what to do at times like this!" my mother shouted, inches away from me.

i stood up from where i was sitting and went over the dining room, pushing pass her.

"don't you dare walk away from me aurora rose," she got a hold of my arm and turned me around.

"mom, i honestly do not know what else to do," i sighed. "i'm sorry i'm not perfect like emily. i'm sorry, okay?"

"sorry isn't going to change the fact that you lost your goddamn apartment and job. and mind you, your fucking internship!"

"please don't yell at me."

"no, i'm going to yell at you. you're twenty years old, act like it, damn it. you have to learn to be a productive and responsible citizen! emily, at age twenty, was a nurse. and now at age twenty-two, she's the most paid, female doctor in california. why can't you be more like her? huh?"

my bottom lip quivered, and my brown eyes became glossy.

"oh you're going to cry now? no surprise, you damn cry baby."

a warm tear slowly ran down my freckled cheek. "thanks for being the mother i have always dreamed of having," i whispered. i quickly grabbed my purse from the kitchen counter and slipped on a pair of nike shoes. i pushed the door open and shut it tight.

when i leaned against the door i could hear my mother, faintly, speaking to herself.

"absolutely worthless."

i sighed, wiping the loose tear drops. i walked out and through the white fence to my car, getting in as fast as i can. it felt like i was staying in fucking, alaska. it was massively cold. i zipped up my coat, and put the key in the ignition. right as the car roared, i put the heater on to full blast.

i drove all by myself, with ed sheeran's, multiply album playing to maximum volume. drunk was currently playing. it was my favorite song, along with grade 8.

i drove until i saw the big house. i parked my car next to the side walk and got out. the cold wind immediately hitting my face, i walked, fast to the front door.

sunsen sorority house. girls only!

the sign read, along with signatures of all the girls in the house. nicoleee! was written in big messy handwriting. i missed her so much.

i knocked three times, waiting for someone to answer. a tall blond opened the door, dressed in only panties and a crop top. she was smiling widely, her hair messy and a pillow in her left hand. i could hear laughter and people running.

i raised my eyebrow before asking, "is nicole here?"

"u-um yeah, hold on- nicole!" she shouted, looking behind her. "there's a midget sized girl at the door for you!"

i'm literally 5'3, in a half.

"aurora?"
