Being Catherine Bowmen (On Hold Until Further Notice)

BCB - The Background Of Everything

Chapter 1 - 

"Bitch !" My 'oh-so-loving' mother have called me. She hit me again with a rotten stick. I couldn't stop her, there is no way I could. I was never good enough for my own mother. I tried everything to satisfy her. I studied hard, I even earn myself a full scholarship in my dream university without have to pay anything. "You are useless, get out !" I took all my necessary stuff and walk out of my house. 

I'm not rich, I'm also not poor, I'm average. I'm not part of the loner, I'm popular enough. I have enough friends and all the things I need. I went inside my car and drive to a motel. It was nice though that my mom kick me out of my house, I wouldn't have to deal with her anymore. I pay for my room for a whole 1 week first, who knows maybe a friend would allow me to stay in their house till I'm 18. 

After taking a shower, I went straight to bed, knowing I have school tomorrow. Just when I was about to fall asleep my phone vibrated. I open my phone to see a text from Mel. 

From Mel : 

I went to your house and you weren't there, where are you ? WHERE THE HECK ARE YOU ! I'M COMING AFTER YOU, You are going to sleep in my house ! 

ps. I don't take no as an answer.

I let out a smile knowing my best friend panic about me not in my house. Yeap that is Mel to you. Melissa Simpson, she is known as the best drama queen a.k.a bitch in school, she would bully other people but not to me. We have been bestfriend from 3rd grade. Mel's parents is rich and well mine is average. How did we end up being best of friends ? Before she become the bitch, she use to be bullied and I saved her ass and well we've been best friend ever since. I don't really mind if she is the school's bitch or whatever, she is still my best friend, so did I to her. My phone vibrated to her. 

From Mel : 

Cat you better answer my text or you wish you never born.

I sigh and answer her text.

To Mel : 

Jesus Christ Mel. I'm in the nearest motel near my house, my mom kicked me out. 

From Mel : 

 Come to my house, you can sleep here. NOW !

I chuckle and gather all my stuff. Good thing about this motel is that I could ask for my money back and just pay for this one night. I smile to the dude in the cashier and get to my car. I blasted on some songs and drive to Mel's house. Mel's place is like 30 minutes away from mines, so its kind of a long drive.

*Ding Dong* 

I keep on pressing their doorbell and nobody answers them. I decided to leave, I was about to step on the stairs. The door opened, and there revealed Chase Simpson. Who is Chase Simpson, I'll explain later. "I know you'll come," he said with a raspy voice. 

"Mel, being a panic person she is, ask, wait no, scratch that, she force me to stay with you guys, until I found a place," I told him, he nod and welcome me to his house. 

"Well, you've been here quite awhile, you know the way right ?" I nod and make my way to Mel's room. While going there, I checked my phone. Whoa it's 2:30 a.m. already, I knocked on Mel's bedroom door. She opens it immediately, her eyes narrowed me. 

"Erm... Hi ?" I said. 

"Don't you 'hi' me, young lady," Mel snapped at me. I suddenly feel guilty for not updating to her. Her face is furious, I gave her an apologentical look.
