Life Of An American Girl....

OMG

I walked in Jimm's and when I saw my brother I just jumped at him.I really missed him.

"So kiddo,anything interesting happened while I was gone?"he asked me.

"Not really,I just wish you never left.Mom and I have had so many fights that I don't even count anymore."

"Everything will be fine,trust me,you will graduate and come live with me in NY and you WILL go to Juilliard.Nothing is gonna stop you." he said to me.

This is why he is the best brother ever.He would do anything for me.He is so different from our parents.Don't get me wrong they are good parents (sometimes) it's just that I'm stubborn and they never like anything that I do or say.

So we sat there for 3 hours and just talked and enjoyed each others comapany and then I drove home to get ready for dinner at Carly's.

What will I wear.I mean her brother is coming back and there are gonna be a lot of people there and I don't want to wear something that says I'm a bad influence on Carly.

Finally I decided what I was going to wear and I finished my hair and makeup and went downstairs.My mom and brian were eating.

"So anything happened today at school?" my mom asked me.

"No it was just another boring day.So I'm gonna go to Carly's for dinner,don't wait up for me but don't worry I'll come on time." I told them.

"Before you go ,where were you today you came really late." Brian asked me.

"I was with Drew." I said quietly not wanting another fight,but I guess I wasn't quiet enough.

"What did I tell you about hanging out with him.Why can't you just listen for once.Your dad is not gonna be happy with this." mom yelled at me.

"Mom are you serious,he doesn't need to know,because even if you tell him it will not stop me from hanging out with MY BROTHER!!!" I yelled back.

"Don't you yell at me young lady,why can't you just listen to us when we tell you,we just want the best for you."

"I don't have time for another one of your parenting speeches,I need to go." I said slamming the door.

I can't believe her,she wants the best for me.The best for me is having my brother around.I hope this dinner will keep my mind of all this,I just can't handle it any longer.

I was walking to Carly's house,I didn't want to drive.I don't really like to drive when I'm upset.She was about 20 minutes away from my place.

I finally reached her house and I stood for 2 minutes infront of her door.Trying to relaxe is so hard.Then suddenly someone opens the door.It was her mom.

"It's so nice to see you Christina,you haven't been here in a while,come in,Carly's in the backyard,we all are."she told me.

I walked to the backyard and saw Carly.

"Hey,I made it."I told her.

"omg Christina there is something really important that happened,I don't know if I should tell you."she told me.

"OK tell me ,what happened?" I asked her.

"I saw your dad today.........with this woman and....there were leaving the hospital,she was holding something and they looked very happy.And then they kissed."she told me.

She must have seen him with Steph,she is his girlfriend.They've been dating for 4 months now.Why were they in a hospital.I haven't told anyone that my dad has a girlfriend,or that my parents don't comunicate with my brother,or that I always argue with them.Oh I haven't told anyone that I got accepted to Juilliard,you see I sometimes feel that no one will understand so I don't tell anyone what is going on in my life,and I act like everything is fine.

While I was thinking something happened.This is definately something I did not expect.
