Oh god! I hate my life

BFF-1(V)

"Mom, dad I'm going to school, byeeee." I told them in the sing song voice.

"But honey, you didn't even have breakfast."

"And there is still 2 hours till the school starts."

Mom and dad said respectively with a frown on their face.

"Chloe called, need to go to hers." I said casually because they know half of the week I stay at her house and another half she stays at mine.

"Ok, be careful." Mom said.

"Aren't I always?" I smirked at mom.

"Elsa, don't forget that time in middle sch-"
Mom was saying but dad interrupted her,"El, you're getting late."

Thank you, dad.

After he said that I rushed out without hearing what mom was trying to say. She was telling something about safety and it's being too early.

Hah, who cares.

***********************

"Hello people."

I said while sliding in from the front door towards the living room of Chloe's house.

"Hello to you too, darling" Chloe's mom replied with a sweet smile sipping the coffee probably. I must say this woman can't function a day without coffee, it's like her lifeline.

"Why are you standing there? Come sit here with me, its been long time since I saw you."
She said pointing towards the couch she was sitting on.

"Anita, I saw you two days ago. Anyways I am here for something else." I said looking toward the stairs.

"Obviously, you are here for something else, no one cares about the little old woman sitt-" She stopped herself when she see the look I was giving her.

"Wait did something happen?"

"Ye-"

She cut me and again started speaking or shall I say ranting.

"For sure something happened. You are here early in the morning not that you'd not be other days but you two probably couldn't have fought, that's rare and even if you had you'd have made up with each other. Then did she had some problems with her-"

I thought it'll be better to ignore her and just climbed the stairs because I know her and she could talk the whole day if someone was listening to her. And she was saying something along the lines that 'no one tells her anything in her own house'.

Anita Stafford was a single mother because of that she is sensitive of anything that could happen to her children. She thinks being single mom will hinder the growth of her children both mentally and socially. She becomes little too emotional and possessive sometimes.I mean being left on the street with a 3 year old and a six months old child with only $590 can have a toll on a person.

God, only knows what she had to go through all those years. Andrew ( Chole's elder brother) says he only remembers vividly, doesn't have much memories before they came to this town.
Whenever me and Chole try to ask her about it she says she will tell us the story when we will be worth hearing it. I don't know when we will be worth that but Chole says we need to be pregnant and have a baby for that since Anita had the same case scenario. I already said Chole's logic board works differently; weirdly to be more precise.

Till now all we know is, that woman was brave and strong enough to make a safe haven for her children withstanding whatever difficulties the world might have thrown towards her.

I was so engrossed in my thoughts that I didn't realise that I was already in front of Chloe's room.

And yes I could still faintly hear Anita rambling somewhere down there.

I pushed to open the door like I usually do.
But like usually I wasn't welcomed to her room as I could still see the door.

So I did something I have never in my life done in this house.

I knocked the door.

Knock

Knock

No sound.

Knock

"Umm...Chloe"

No sound.

Then, I heard something at the back of the room.

"Chole, Chole open up. It's me, Elsa." I said while knocking.

After some seconds I heard some muffled sound from inside.

Then my over imaginative and over creative mind start to work at the speed of 120 m/s. I remembered every case scenarios of American Crime Stories and Castle.

I started to bang the door,"Who ever is inside open up and I won't call-"

I was interrupted. ( I have been interrupted quite a few times today and I have interrupted others too many times then I usually do and the day has just began.)

"Hold your tits, woman. Why are you shouting and who will be in my room other than me?"
There she was standing on the door with a towel wrapped around her and with her eyebrows raised.

I checked her for any injuries and the looked inside her room seeing no one I sighed and pushed Chloe out of my way and just fell down on her bed.

"Will you mind answering my questions?"

"I don't feel like it."

"Ok....Answer My Question, BITC-" Chole was about to shout.

"Why was your room locked, anyway?" I asked ignoring what she just said. That kinda happened a lot between us.

"You know mom. She was asking me about my date yesterday and why I came home so fast. When I said because date finished fast she won't stop questioning me so my room is locked since yesterday and I'm really hungry now." She said with a sigh at the end.

"As you oh so mentioned about the date, which I must add I haven't heard about and didn't you broke up with Shane yesterday after school. And I can't see the usual drama after break up."

I mean normal people don't go to date right after their breakup and don't have a happy look on their face.

And here I thought I will entertain myself with some breakup drama early in the morning.

None of you is saying I said that to Chole. I solely came here to give moral support to my best friend after her breakup.

Chloe looked at me sheepishly.

"Well, its long story...."

Thank the heavens, I came two hours early.

-----------------------

This was the first time I have written this long chapter, it is 1038 words not as long as other writers but I am proud of myself.😁

So how many of you walk inside the house of your best friend like you own the place? And have been practically living there as it's your second home. Please do comment, I'd love to hear from you and I may share about myself too.

So from today I'm going to update in a systematic way. That there will at least be an update per week and if I'm not feeling lazy as I usually do there may be more then one update.

So that's all for today.

Love you all ♥️
