On Saturday, Mrs Turner invited me to her and Ella's Girl day, or that's what they called it. Spa and shopping. Im invited but it didnt feel right to me. I just met Ella, and shes being so nice.
Alex kept ignoring me. He never talks to me or say anything whenever I am around. I didnt know why, but im not gonna ask Ella. But I didnt care the fact that he's ignoring me. All I cared was my friendship with Ella.
"So, what about a nice manicure?" Mrs Turner or I called her Meg as she insisted said to me. She was being really nice to me. She treated me like her daughter.
"It's okay, you and Ella can do it together, I dont really have money to-"
"No, no, no, I pay for you" she smile "My treat"
I said I didnt want her too pay because its too much but she insisted.
Ella whiper in my ears "You can never say no to mom, its not that she dislike it, but its who she is, she's always like that"
I smiled. If only I have a mom like that.
We did manicures. I had a pink with polkadots and Ella had pink leopard prints. We went to a place called Forever 21. Ella picked a lot of skirts, shirts and dresses. I just stood there and watch her.
"Do you want anything?" Mrs Turner asked
I shooked my head "Mrs Tur- I mean, Meg, its okay"
She insisted and well, you couldnt say no. I saw a nice cardigan but its too expensive and I already have the one Rosalie gave. I couldnt betray the one that I had. So I picked a jeans. Mine were worn out and I had my jeans that im wearing now since I was 12.
Mrs Turner paid for it and we headed back to Ella's house.
We went upstairs to Ella's room after she and Alex shared a hug. He still ignores me. Pretended that im not standing there waiting for Ella to finish her time with him.
After that, we were upstairs. I took a deep breath. Its time for me to tell her about my parents. Mrs Turner always ask about my parents and wanting to meet them. I cant keep a secret from Ella. She tells me everything. Ive been wanting to tell her since the first day ive been to her house, but I didnt know when's the right time. And now, this is the right time to tell her.
"Ella?"
"Yeap, Jessie?"
I took a deep breath. "There's something I have to tell you"
She sat there and nod slowly. I told her my story starting from my parents car crash, then what the Vegas' did to me and I found out that I had an aunt Rosalie. I even told her that my parents married secretly. I told her I was sorry and I should told her this earlier. I cried, She did not laugh at me or cry. She just sat there nodding. Then, she hugged me.
"Hey, hey, its okay to cry" she hugged me and whisper in my ears. "Im not mad that you didnt tell me this sooner, im sorry" then tears started too stream down her face."But,Thank you for telling me this"
We cried.
"Ive never tell anyone" I sobbed."But im gonna tell your mom"
She gave me a sad smile, "Youre now my bff, Jessie, you can tell me anything, I trust you"
Her trust was what ive always wanted.

Mrs Turner insisted to send me back to Rosalie's. I haven't tell her yet about everything I told Ella. Now it's the time. She's been so nice to me and treated me like I'm her daughter.
Before I want to speak, Mrs Turner told me, "You know, Ella did told you about Stacey right? Well I trust you that you're not like her, at all"
"Thank you, Meg, for everything, I really need Ella, I'm not using her" I spoke softly.
She smiled at me "Ella's different, she may be confident, but in the inside, she's insecure and it's really hard for her to find a friend she can rely on"
I nod.
"So what's you're mom, like?" she asked me. "Does she embarrass you? Alex and Ella says I always embarrass them"
"I don't have a mother and father" I whispered. She look at me sadly and hugged me. I cried and told her my story.
"You're a brave girl, Jessica" she smiled sadly. "I like it that you're strong, you'll be a good friend for Ella"
She pulled up in front of Rosalie's or now I'm calling it home. We exchanged goodbyes and Mrs Turner told me to be strong.
I've finally told Ella and Mrs Turner my secret.
