Lives Of Two Stranger's Who Became The Best Of Friends

Shawnee Quinn

Hey, my name is Shawnee Quinn. Some people call me an emo girl, emotional girl who is trying to get attention, or emotionally unstable. I really don't care what people think about me. I have 2 brothers and 3 sisters. I am the second child of 6. My older brother Tyler 19, out of high school, working and trying to get into a college has a girlfriend of 4 years, Me 17 Junior in high school, gets into lots of fights, not thinking about college, goes to parties every weekend, not looking for a relationship, Damon 16 Sophomore in high school, talks about being like me which I hate, he has been in a relationship of 3 months, Taylor 14, just like me, turning out to be an emo non-sociable, doesn't want or needs a relationship, Kayla 10 going into 5th grade, better not have a boyfriend, but is a really smart girl, and then little Bonnie who just turned 2 last year. We all really don't get along with each other, but once something happens in our family we all stick together. We are the children of a very rich and abusive mother and a very hard working yet loving step-father. Our dad left us for another woman. My mother is a drunk and is very abusive towards my younger siblings, she comes home drunk with random guys. Tyler and I do everything for our younger siblings. Damon really doesn't do anything but invite his girlfriend over to have dinner with us every night. Which is starting to be annoying cause she disrepects me and my older brother.
I never asked for life, I never asked to be born, or even asked to have sibling, but i guess its not your choice to make at all. Is it? This is my story about what I go through everyday. Its also about how I thought i would never become best friends with my brothers girlfriend.
