The Spoken Truth

Chapter 15

"Marley. Girl what's up?" A voice said behind me. I turned around to see Kitty and Ryder.

"Hey guys what are you guys doing here?" I asked looking at them.

"I asked you first. And who are these people?" Kitty asked pointing to Austin, Lucy, and my father Ryan. I looked at them to her.

"Promise me you will tell no one." I asked them.

"Girl you are asking me. I keep your secret. I don't know about this one." Kitty said pointing to Ryder.

"I promise." Ryder said.

"Okay. Well this is my father Ryan, half-brother Austin, and step-mother Lucy." I told them.

"Nice to meet you." Kitty said shaking all of their hands.

"And who are these two?" Ryan asked.

"You guys are Kitty Wilde and Ryder Lynn." Austin said.

"How do you know that?" Kitty asked.

"I like to know the competition." Austin said looking at them.

"You guys are from the Walders." Ryder said.

"Yes we are." Ryan said.

"You didn't answer my question. What are you guys doing here?" I asked looking at them.

"Oh. Uhm." Ryder said looking at Kitty.

"We had practice and I was hungry. So he said lets go to breadsticks." Kitty said.

"Oh really." I said.

"Yeah. We will see you on Monday Marley." Kitty said.

"Okay. Text me later girly. Bye Ryder." I said to them.

"Fine. Bye." She said walking away with Ryder.

"That was weird." I said to my mother.

"What do you mean?" Austin asked.

"Them two. I know when Kitty has practice and she didn't have practice today." I said looking at my mother again.

"I don't know honey. Maybe they had a last minute practice or a surprise practice." My mother said.

"Maybe. I will ask her later." I said. I talked and eat our food. We were at breadsticks for a good hour. We said our good-byes and left. I think that went really good. My mom was driving. I pulled out my phone and started to text Kitty.

Hey Kitty

Hey girly

Yeah. How was that lunch thing with your father, half-brother, step-mother?

It went good. My mom has Lucy's number so they could talk.

What is up with you and Ryder?

Nothing we r just friends

Kitty. Come on u didn't have practice today did you

I did

Kitty. Come on don't you trust me

Yes I trust you. Hold on someone is calling me.

Okay

I put my phone on my lap and looked out the window. My mom looked at me.

"What?" I asked her.

"What is wrong?" She asked me.

"I think Kitty is hiding something from me. I just don't know what." I told her.

"She is your friend. You just need to trust her. When she is ready to talk about whatever it is. I bet you will be one of the first to know." She said. I smiled at her.

"You are right." I said. Then my phone went off. It was a text from Kitty. I looked at it.

I smiled and shook my head. I wonder what she is going though that she is not ready to tell no one except Ryder. I don't know. But what I do know is that I do trust her. I know whatever it is she will talk about it when she is ready.

So the rest of the weekend went by fast and it is Monday. I woke up and got ready. I walked into school early little always because my mother has to get breakfast for the students. I head to my locker until I stop and saw......
