A Problem

Twenty-two

KIKI

"Kiki?" Skye croaked out through the other end of the phone. I rubbed my eyes and sat up, it was three am in the morning. I looked to my right and saw Diana fast asleep.

We hadn't made up yet or talked. It had been a week since I have gotten back.

"Skye, it's three am! This better be good." I grumbled over the phone. I was half awake and barely conscious right now. I still was sore from the accident and most bruises were fading, but I still had the scar on my face.

It's not like I didn't have multiple scars.

I have had them from the car accident, from multiple times I have gotten hurt, and more.

"My mom, something's not right. She doesn't remember anything that happened until last week. She thinks you are still coming home from the hospital. My brothers are at college and my sister isn't here, neither is my dad." Skye spoke, as she sobbed through the phone.

I immediately woke up, trying to find something to wear.

"I'm coming there with my mom now!" I told her.

"I-I c-c-called Cruz also, he might help too. Please hurry!" She said, as she hung up. I turned on the lights and started getting dressed.

I put on some Adidas shorts with a shirt that said my soccer team on it. I still play, but I'm going to stop when I go to college because I want to focus on becoming a physical therapist.

I put my hair into a messy bun and grabbed my phone as I shut off the lights.

I quickly, but quietly sprinted to mom's room.

"Mom?" I said to her, as I quietly shook her awake. She groaned and rolled over to look at me. Once she saw I was dressed, she looked at me confused.

"Kiki, what time is it? It's three in the morning, you better have a good excuse-"

"Skye just called and her mom is acting weird. She doesn't remember anything, only things from last week. Skye is alone and I told her we would go and help her because she doesn't know what to do!" I explained to mom.

"Alright, give me five minutes to get ready and explain to your father what is going on!" Mom said as I waited for her by the front door.

I was texting Skye that I would be there soon with mom.

"Kiki?" A voice spoke.

Diana

"Why are you up? It's three in the morning, and you woke me up!" Diana exclaimed. I rolled my eyes as I put on some random pair of flip flops.

"I don't care Diana, I don't have time for your bullshit right now. I need to go somewhere and it's very important," I told her. Her face changed from annoyed to hurt. I didn't car right now, I had to go help my best friend.

"But I just came to say that-"

"Tell me later because I'm going somewhere, and it's not some stupid party like you always go to," I said to her. Her face changed again, this time her eyes changed from hurt to a mixture of angry and hurt.

"Fine, I was going to apologize but you don't wanna hear it. You know what- I don't care!mGo do whatever you need to do!" Diana exclaimed to me loudly, before storming off to her room.

I sighed knowing I messed up my chance of being good with my sister again.

Mom then came down to the front door.

"Let's go."

"Skye?" I called her as Cruz opened the door.

"She's in the living room with her mom!" Cruz said as I walked into the living room. Immediately, I saw a panicked Skye next to her mother who had no idea what was going on.

"Kiki? Did you get picked up early from the hospital?" She questioned me.

"I don't know what to do, she hasn't been her usual self. I didn't want to tell you guys because you all have been so overwhelmed with your problems." Skye told us. She immediately brushed into tears as Cruz comforted her.

"Skye, you can always tell me your problems. I don't care if I'm crippled like a burnt tortia chip, or if I'm hurt. You are my best friend!" I said as she gave me a hug.

"Thanks Kiki!" She spoke.

We ended up taking her mom to the hospital. Her dad and sister arrived there, and her brothers flew in from New York and London since they were at college.

I stayed for a few hours but mom made me leave.

It was a few days later, when Skye texted me.

Skye- They found out what it was

Me- it better not be some weird paranormal shit

Skye- Kiki this is no time for jokes

Me- sorry

Skye- it's Alzheimer's  (sorry if the spelling is wrong)

Me- Oh Skye, how far along is she?

Skye- she's in the middle stages right now

Me- If there is anything you need Skye you can come to my house

Skye- nah, it's alright. I have Cruz here with me

Me- the offers still up if you need it

Skye- thanks goat

Goat was a nickname I had gotten from Skye and my squad.

After texting Skye, I got a snapchat from one of my friends Jamie on my phone. Since I had broken my previous phone, I had gotten a new one and kept a private snapchat on my current phone. My old phone was used for my YouTube snapchat, Kiki.Butler.

I opened up snapchat and saw the many streaks I had. Even though Diana and I were mad at each other, we still had our streak of 289. I had a streak of 134 with Sophia, a streak with Charles at 104, a streak with Skye at 287, and other streaks with some of my friends and cousins, including Jamie.

Currently, our streak was at 95.

I opened up the snapchat and saw Jamie had snapchated me a picture of her holding a tequila bottle. The caption was:

Litt🔥❤️ (Kiki come and drink some)

I rolled my eyes at the caption and the picture. First off, I am Mormon and don't drunk and don't smoke anymore than I did those few times. I have learned my ways and realized alcohol doesn't help things with my family.

I took a picture of my room and typed:

I'm Mormon, remember?

After a few minutes she sent a picture back that said:

Oops, sorry.

Rolling my eyes, I shut off my phone and decided to go make a YouTube video for my channel. All the kids who were old enough had separate channels.

Since people were wondering what happened about me, even though mom and dad posted what happened, I guess I would make a short vlog.

"Hey guys! So today, I'm going to be talking about my accident and what happened to me." I spoke, looking directly at the camera. I took a deep breath and continued.

"So as all of you, or most of you may know, I was in a accident." I told the camera. I continued to explain what happened, leaving the parts about us cursing out because mom and dad might see the video.

After I was finished, I upload it and titled it: My accident (the full story). Once I editied it and uploaded it, I decided to take a small nap.
