Cali's POV
"What do you mean I can't use the phone?? You let everyone use the phone once a month, I'm not any different!" I argued with one of the idiotic receptionists, Mrs. Marta.
She used her 'I'm a cheap hooker' voice on me. It was very degrading and rough. And annoying as fuck. "Sweetie, I'm sorry but it says right here that you aren't allowed the normal privileges because of your... issues"
Issues? Lady. Really. "Um its not like I'm going to kill myself over the phone. "
She pursed her lips at me, "Now I don't appreciate that tone!"
I don't appreciate the fact that you won't let me talk to my fucking sister. "Listen Ma'am. My little sister is stuck in fostercare and I need to take care of her. It's almost impossible without a phone call."
"Sorry." She said sarcastically.
Bitch.
I walked back to Esme and Joey, grumpily. "The lady at the counter is such a bitch."
"Yep." Joey answered.
"Yep." Esme mimicked.
"Hey Cal, can I talk to you for a sec?" A voice I knew so well asked. I turned around to see Layla, looking like shit.
My eyes were so wide, "...Did someone hit you with a bus??" I asked.
She groaned and glared at Esme, "Do I really have to do this?" She asked her, folding her arms. Esme gave her a thumbs up in reply.
Layla mouthed a 'fuck you' to Esme then turned back to me, "Listen Cali, I was a bitch. I know. But i wasn't wrong. You gave up on yourself a long time ago, you can't be surprised that everyone else is beginning to give up on you too. Sorry. I'm only being honest. I might've been a little too hard on you, and I apologize for that, but you know I was right."
...Well, that might have been the shittiest apology I've ever gotten.
"Layla! You said that you would be sincere!!" Esme said sternly.
Layla shrugged, "I was sincere. Sincerely truthful."
Esme sighed and I laughed. I kinda missed Layla and her attitude. "You are a huge bitch but I will deal with you for the time being because I don't want to upset the pregnant woman." I answered, patting Layla softly on the shoulder.
Esme scoffed at me, "Pregnant woman? I'm only 17, I don't think that I count as a woman."
"Oh my god Esme. You really need me to explain this to you???" I asked, and she nodded. I rolled my eyes, "When your body starts to change and you start developing----" I started, then she interrupted me.
"CALI DON'T NEED THE PERIOD TALK! I'M PREGNANT, I THINK I KNOW WHAT A PERIOD IS!!" She yelled, blushing bright red. I smirked at her and blew her a kiss.
Joey looked extremely uncomfortable, "Guys can we change the subject...?"
I smiled at Esme and Layla, and I knew they were thinking the same thing.
"BLOOD." Layla yelled.
"CRAMPS." Esme yelled, giggling.
"EMOTIONAL BREAKDOWNS EVERY 2 SECONDS!" I answered. When we saw his face, we all fell on the floor and we couldn't stop laughing. The nurses had to physically drag us all to our rooms to shut us up. But, of course, that didn't work.
