I’m back home since the party, my mother as usual has gone nuts saying words and stuff at me. Apparently she was so worried about me; her crap doesn’t bother me anymore. I’m done feeling bad and doing messed up things. I’ve made my mind up; I’ll finish college, go and live with my dad. I’ll get my life ahead, get into a good university and become a fashion journalist. Have a good work in vogue or big fashion magazine.
Right now I was just doing my English homework. My mother went to work, and I don’t have a clue where anyone else is. Noah has been avoiding me; it’s been really awkward with Cole. These past few days I’ve been staying indoors so I barely go out. I don’t care about anybody, I just want to get my life straight and make things right.
“Hey, you ok” Imogen said walking into my room.
It’s weird but we haven’t spoken since she came back except saying hi to each other. “Hmm yeah I’m great and you?”
“Why are you being so formal?”
“I’m not”
“Anyway, do you want to do anything? I’m really bored”
“Oh well anything that doesn’t involve leaving this house”
“Sure, I’ll order Chinese”
“I want Singapore rice”
“Ok”
She left my room to go and order; I took my magazine, phone and went downstairs. I sat on the couch with Imogen next to me.
“So?” we both said at the same time and giggled.
“You know, rehab really changed me. Even though I never said this but thank you”
“What for?”
“Because you tried to help me out of it, I'm probably sure if I wasn’t doing drugs with Ben, maybe he wouldn’t have been dead. I know this may sound bad but, his death and the whole rehab thing made me realise life’s short”
“Oh wow. I’m really proud of you. Rehab did help you. Don’t you worry, you’ll have another amazing boyfriend that isn’t a bad influence” I gave her a big hug; I can’t believe we’re both tearing up. Girls are so emotional. The doorbell rang, I guess our food’s here. She brought the food we sat down and eat. It was cute, like getting back with my twin. I really did miss her that's a fact. We talked for hours till we got tired and we both went to bed. It was like catching up with an old friend.
The next day we both went shopping. I had a grey jumper on, skinny jeans, black boots and jacket on while Imogen had a white top on with a camouflage jacket on, jeans and boot.
“I love this dress, go and try it on” I told Imogen to try on a blue dress. The dress is so pretty it had spikes by the side of it.
“Yeah ok, you try that dress. It would look nice on you.”
“No, pink is not my colour”
“Such a drama queen”
I sat outside waiting for her, even though we’re twins were both not allowed to be in the same changing room. She walked out of the changing room and did a twirl.
“No, the dress is horrible. Next” I gave her another dress to go and change. This went on and on
We both went to a lot of stores. We bought a lot of clothes, we saw few cute guys. Imogen gave numbers out; I didn’t because obviously I’m in a relationship with Noah, this really sucks. We got home around six thirty. The whole day gone spent on shopping. Luckily my mother wasn’t in so I could still bond with Imogen without having to argue.
I decided to go and see Noah, he can’t ignore me forever. I walked to his house and knocked on the door. Noah lives with his mum, his dad lives in Paris comes home sometimes; Noah has two younger sisters making Noah the first child. Just the guy I wanted to see, Noah opened the door and he didn’t look happy to see me either.
“Hey, what are you doing here?”
“Wow, nice to see you too. That’s such a good way to talk to your girlfriend that you’ve been ignoring.” I said with sarcasm dripping from my tone of voice
“Sorry, come in” we both walked in to his bedroom and I sat on his bed
“So, tell me. What’s wrong, why have you been avoiding me?”
“Nothing, I just have too much going on with me right now”
“Liar” I shouted at him jumping from his bed “Don’t you dare lie to me, there’s something wrong with you and I. I see you with Markus all the time”
“Err…it’s different with him”
“How is it?”
“It’s just is. Let’s drop this please”
“No, I’m not dropping it. You have to tell me the reason why you’re ignoring me”
“I SAID I’M NOT IGNORING YOU. I’VE GOT PERSONAL ISSUES ALI, THINGS THAT ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOU. ALRIGHT JUST STOP ASKING QUESTIONS LIKE YOU CARE BECAUSE YOU DON’T CARE.”
“What?”
“YEAH, YOU DON’T CARE ABOUT WHAT’S GOING ON BECAUSE IF YOU DID YOU WOULDN’T BE ACTING LIKE EVERYTHING’S PERFECT. GOING OUT WITH YOUR RANGE ROVER FRIEND AND BRADLEY, I’M NOT DUMB YOU KNOW. I KNOW THERE’S SOMETHING GOING ON BETWEEN YOU GUYS, AND I’M FED UP. I CAN’T HAVE A GIRLFRIEND THAT’S A CHEATER, WE’RE DONE AALIYAH. DONE”
“Calm down, I don’t see the reason for you shouting”
“WELL I DO, I’M SO ANGRY AT YOU, YOU DON’T EVEN UNDERSTAND”
“Oh”
“Anyway it doesn’t matter, just leave.”
“So, we’re done?”
“Obviously, I don’t go out with cheaters”
“Your pathetic Noah, I actually changed for you.”
“I’m done believing your lies”
“Lies, you’re pathetic and I hate you”
“Just leave please”
“Can’t we talk about this please, I really like you Noah. I really do, I’ve changed” I can’t believe I’m begging him. Tears started leaking out of my eyes, I really liked Noah plus I’ve only cheated on him once.
“There’s nothing to talk about Ali” he seems to have made up his mind about his decision, this is bad. I lost the best thing that happened to me, I bet he hates me now, I’m a real bitch.
“Please” I felt so vulnerably with my voice shaking when talking to him.
“Just go ok, I’ll call you later or something”
“O-okay” I said running out of his house to my house.
I can’t believe that just happened, Noah broke up with me and I also cried in front of him. I ran home, when I got home I saw Sam and Imogen talking. Oh what the hell not now please? I remembered I was crying and I quickly wiped away my tears.
“What you doing here?”
“Just came to see you. After the other day you never replied my texts or called me.”
“Liyah, what’s wrong. Why are you crying?”
“Oh alright, I’m not crying my eyes are just really itchy”
“You’re lying. What happened with Noah?”
“Just the usual really, ok then Sam. As you can see I’m safe so you can leave now”
“Alright then, see you later girls. Call me if you need me Ali” I felt tears coming up, all I had to do was blink and the tears would spill. He called me Ali, Noah calls me that too.
“Don’t call me Ali, the name is Aaliyah”
“Oh sorry, see you later Aaliyah”
“I’m sorry for her outburst”
“Don’t worry about it, teenagers.”
