She's such a bitch.

Her brown hair was cropped to shoulder length. She was dressed in a preppy outfit as usual, like she just come back from a horse ranch. Black riding boots clicking across the floor, she strutted over to me, arms crossed.

"What are you doing here?"

"Excuse me?" I huffed, "This is my parents' house, too!"

"You-They said you left."

She uncrossed her arms and hung them by her sides.

"Who did?"

"Mom and dad."

Why would they say that! I was just in the hospital for almost a week.

Where are they anyway?

Anger grew inside of me, my head spinning with questions.

"Where are they?"

She opened her mouth to speak but paused instead.

"They told me they were going somewhere for about a week to get away from everything."

My eyebrows shot skyward.

"What do you mean they went to get away from everything?"

Jocelyn shrugged.

"It was just getting to stressful for them. So they left us here with the little one-"

I scoffed in disbelief.

"Little one?" He graduates in a few months!"

"He's still a minor." She glanced me over. "It was a well deserved trip."

So "everything" was just me.

Nice to know they care.

"That's nice. Where did they run off to?"

"Probably somewhere isolated. I don't know and I really don't care." She spit

"What do you meant you don't care?"

"They are adults. They can handle themselves, unlike this one." She pointed towards Spencer

He rolled his eyes, mimicking her movements.

Fenmore slapped him upside the back of his head.

Without turning around to see what happened, she remarked, "Exactly."

"He is almost in college and you guys seem to be making yourselves comfortable in this house for awhile. What are you doing here anyway? I thought-"

"Leave it!" She stormed out of he room, slamming her bedroom door behind her.

"Someone just something stuck up her-"

Fen shot me a look.

What the hell? I'm an adult!

I flicked him off, returning the favor. He stormed away after Jocelyn.

"Well that's my que!"

Spencer dipped out of the room, leaving me alone.

All the sudden my butt started to vibrate. I slipped my phone out of my pocket.

I held it up to my ear after pressing the answer button.

"Hello?"

"Is this Kensington?"

Should I say yes? I have no idea who this person is.

"Yes?"

"Oh. Uh... This is Harry?"

Oh my gosh! Harry!
