"Hey Maya! Hop in!" Katie says as I climb into her small, beat up, old fashioned buggy. It was rusty and used to be a maroon color, but now it is chipped and the engine fails a lot. I guess her brother fixed it, but who knows how much of a handy man he is.
"Thanks Kat," I smile at her. "I got you a blended white chocolate mocha from Starbucks. One pump of raspberry and whipped cream," I say as I hand her her favorite drink.
"Omigosh, I love you," she says while taking a sip. I also take a sip of my Caramel Brulé Latte. One of my favorites.
"Hashtag white girls!" she laughs while nudging me with her elbow.
I can't help but burst out laughing. What is up with her? She is never this happy.
"You are sure in a cheery mood," I smile at her.
"I broke up with Kiefer," she blurts with the biggest smile I have ever seen.
"Finally," I exhale in relief. "Good for you! I am glad you did it! How did he respond?"
"Ummmm," she stutters while pulling her sleeves up with shakey hands.
There is a huge bruise along with red splotches along both arms. She then lifts up her hair and reveals the back of her neck that is severely bruised. I am mortified.
"Kat!" I say in a sympathetic tone. I lightly turn her arms over to reveal more bumps and bruises.
"He wasn't very happy," she says with a sad smile.
"Kat you need to call the police on him! And if you don't I will," I state while looking her deep in the eyes.
"The neighbors already did when they heard him yelling and me screaming. The cops arrested him and he was in possession on cocaine and heroin at the moment. He has to spend a lot of jail time," she says with an exhale of relief.
"Finally," I say. Now that weight is gone, but there are so many more I barely notice it lifting.
"I know. I am so happy I am finally free of him," she smiles happily.
"Ryan cheated on me," I croak.
"What?" she says with wide eyes and her jaw to the floor.
I tell Katie the whole story as she drives to Carrie's house. She throws in 'Omigosh!' and 'No he didn't!' every now and then. I also told her about Jake and our fight. I also mentioned Sam and the girl Jake was with in the house.
...
When we arrive at Carrie's house, I walk up to the door and take a deep breath. I have to go and confront the girl. I can't just leave her passed out on the floor, and she is probably awake by now. Thank goodness George is at someone else's house. Kat is standing right by my side as I open the door and step inside.
The house is deep silent. I don't hear anything at all. Katie and I begin to walk upstairs to my room, when we hear a voice froms Jake's room.
"Hello?" says a perfect, silky female voice.
"Hey," I say awkwardly as I lift a small hand to wave at the girl who is sitting on Jake's messy bed.
"Hi," Kat says as she wiggles her fingers to the girl.
"Um, do you know where Jake is?" she asks while rubbing her head.
She has bleach blonde hair with brown tips that is down to her belly button. She also has piercing green eyes and tanned skin. She is gorgeous. I hate her. She is wearing a crop-top tee that says Good Vibes on it. It lands just above her pierced belly button ring. She is wearing denim short shorts with a brown belt. She also is wearing brown combat boots with a small brown leather bag slung over her shoulder.
