Legacy

Chapter 17

Their mother entered the room and Addy's heart was racing and she kept her eyes down.
"Good evening, girls." Their mother said coldly.
"Good evening, mother" the daughters replied in unison. The was a cold silence as their mother walked around to sit at the head of the table.
"Where is Rebecca, Stacie?"
"Um... I don't know... exactly." Stacie mumbled.
"Stacie speak up!" Her mother snapped.
"I don't know but she said she will be here when we left school."
"Yes, that poor public school of yours, filled with pathetic low life's." The silence creeped in again as they were stood waiting for Beca.
"Well, we can't start without her. So, I guess will shall just stay here." Suddenly everyone was praying that Beca would turn up so this could be over.
"Stacie! That dress is way too short for you and your make up is too thick are you trying to look like a slut. If you are, you succeeding for once at something. The dress is just all wrong for you in general. I thought I taught you better than to be a slut." Stacie tried to pull down her dress.
"Sorry mother." Stacie apologised feeling very insecure.

The front door opened and Beca walked in.
"Rebecca get in here this instant!" Beca rolled her eyes and entered, she knew she wasn't going to get out of it but she just didn't for once want to get into a dress, which she hates wearing just to impress someone she didn't care about.

"What?" Beca send with her normal attitude which made Stacie glare at Beca she could imagine the lazors coming out of her eyes and incinerating Beca, her mother and the whole dinner party. Addy couldn't contain the snicker.

"What so you find so funny? Shut up! There is nothing to be laughing at you insolent little brat." This made Addy shut up and look at the floor as her mother continued, "Why are you late and dressed like that?!?"

"I'm not that late and it's not a necessity that i am home to play happy families with you! and what do you mean dressed like this? You don't think we really walk around dressed like that all the time, do you?" Beca questioned.

"Rebecca sit down now!" Beca reluctantly sat down, she said some of what she wanted to say but sat down as she wasn't comfortable saying it all in front of her  younger sisters. As Beca sat down so did everyone else for the first time.

"Well, we haven't even eaten and tonight has been a disaster. Between the brat at the end and the slut next to her and you coming in dressed like a dyke i don't know what to do with you lot. Mary bring in the food." Everyone shut up for the first since Beca had walked in. Everyone was hurt, even Emily and nothing had been said about her. Emily moved her hand to Beca's and gave her hand a squeeze she knew Beca was far more hurt then she would ever say.  

Mary brought the food in slightly as everyone picked at there meals without eating much.

"To add to my list of things to be mad at I heard about the situation that went on yesterday. It was the first day of school and you already managed to to get yourself in trouble." No one said anything in response.

"Adelaide go upstairs and get your IPad. Now! If you refuse to eat your dinner and are just going to pick at your meal." Her mother said putting her knife and fork down. 

"Why?"

"Don't answer me back Adelaide! While your up there get rid of that brat you are acting like!" Addy got up from the table and went up stairs and got her IPad, took a breath and returned down stairs. 

"Rebecca get your laptop and IPad. Then Stacie get your phone, IPad and laptop. If you won't listen to me when I talk to you, you ungrateful little shits, then I will take away your crap until you get it." 

After everyone had returned, the silence grew as we were all thinking we wish we were Emily right now.

"Adelaide and Emily you are excused for the rest of the evening. Goodnight! Rebecca and Stacie please stay why we have a nice little chat." As Addy and Emily stand up and walk towards the door their mother follows and closes the door as they leave. 

Addy and Emily walk upstairs without saying anything and walked into their rooms. Addy and Emily both got dressed out of their evening wear. Emily put headphones on and began revising as a small tear ran down her face as her hand moved up to wipe it off. While Addy got on to her bed and put her headphones into and put the music on full blast and feel asleep blocking out any emotion her body was trying to make her feel.
