A little lie

chapter 4

Bret gets out of the car. I just sit there and stare. Dad walks towards us, his tramp in tow. "Brent! Addie! My kids! I thought i would stop by!" I get out he car and avoid his and my brothers stare off and head to my room.dads being here makes me VERY uncomfortable.i dint explain exactly why he left.....you see...not only did he leave my mom for a tramp. But....he abused my mom and me. And my brother being away at boarding school for two years after his horrible grades freshmen year, only just found out last summer when he came home. He saw what my dad had been doing...and well...lets just say him beating his ass doesnt begin to cover it . And the only reason,ever, that my dad comes around is either for money, or to harrass us. I hide away in my closet...."NO no no no....not here! This cant happen here" i sobbed.i wipe my eyes and look at the comotion outside. My dad was backing away from my brother...almost catiously. My brother was talking to him, telling him to "get lost" my dad then turned and took off in his car. My brother comes into my room, "hey" i sit there and refuse to break my gaze from the window. "Look,i know we both hate our dad. But, he said something about wanting to be apart of our lives." I look at him, in a state of shock. "Listen...." he sighs and i pick up where he left off. " what he is trying to worm his way back into our lives? So he can...so he can..." i break off and start sobbing again. My brother pulls me into a hug and pats down my hair. He pulls away and wipes my tears. " look, why dont we go out for ice cream? Starbucks?" I nod my head at starbucks. "Great! Why dont you call that girl you were walking with today? Invite her, you look like good enough friends." He tells me to meet him outside in ten minutes. I freshen up. Put on my vans and head out. "Hey brent before we get to starbucks we have to pick up C." We get to her house and she hops in. " hi you must be brent" she winks at me and says, "my names candice. But everyone calls me C." We pull in and walk inside. As soon as we step in, i see a girl wave us over.we walk to her and she and brent hug. I look at C and she cast an evil look to the girl. " hi my names candice." She says with a totally fake smile and an out stretched hand. The girl shakes her hand and introduces herself to us. "Hi im sadi" she looks me over and says nothing.we order and take our seats. "well," my brother starts off. "My friend invited me to a party. he and his brother are throwing this 'back to school' party and i was wandering if you'd go with me?" This was obviously pointed at sadi.C and i look at her, she says okay then kisses him. *what a fuckin slut* C text me.i reply an * lol* she drinks her coffee and replys to the silence, " well addie got invited by johnathan in first period. So she and i will as well be going." She glares at sadi and smiles to brent. "EXCELLENT! we can all go together" say brent. "Not at all related to the fact that we are getting together fiday, my mom will be out saturday-sunday. She wont get back until mondat night." Brent looks at sadi then at me. Before brent can even ask her to come over, i involve myself. " YEAH! Hey C we can have a sleep over!" She grins at me and says "totally! We can pop popcorn, paint toenails, and golly addie! We can watch horror movies!" I ignore her sarcastic remark. "Great! Ill tell my mom and its settled!" Brent looks at me and knows instantly what im up to. "HEY! We can all watch those movies together! SADI YOU SHOULD COME TO!" Sadi smiles and says, "sounds great". We part ways with sadi and drop off C. "Well shit addie." "What?" I reply unamused. " you know damn well what you did. You tryed to run sadi off. What i dont know is why." I look at him " because shes a slut brent." He looks at me and drops the subject.we pull into the driveway for the second time today and this time, no dirtbag and no tramp.i head inside and run upstairs and put on pajamas. Me and my brother, having a very close relationship,have a movie night every monday. I sit down next to him and dig into the popcorn. We decided on watching the conjuring.after the movie we just talk. Mostly about how the first day of school went for each of us. Then when our eyes could not stay open any longer, we both decided to head up to our bedrooms. We said good night and that was that.
