Love Thy Sister (Lesbian Story): Chapter 13

Crystal 9:45pm

Dear Journal,

Why does all this shit have to happen to me? I mean honestly how does a day go from amazing and perfect to overall bad and fucked up? Okay, let me start from the beginning. You know how I said I had been meaning to hang out with Savanna? Well after school she texted me and she told me that she really wanted me to see her parents’ gallery. Abbey wanted to hang out with her friends anyway and I had been dying to see her parents’ gallery since she told me about it. I remember when I was younger I used to visit art galleries all the time. I loved taking in all the glorious masterpieces. Each artist has his or her own style and I adore it. Well anyway I took the bus downtown and I met her at the art gallery. I must say she did look stunning. She had on this really beautiful flowing green top and this tannish skirt. Her hair was tied up in this loose bun and she had this gorgeous wooden necklace on. I love Savanna’s look it’s so natural and fresh. So anyway the gallery was absolutely exquisite. They had very eccentric art there, it wasn’t your usual cookie cutter masterpieces it was completely different.

                The thing I liked the most about the night though was meeting Savanna’s parents. They must be the most perfect parents of all time. Ok that’s over exaggeratory, but her parents are so cool. They both have that artistic chic kind of vibe going on and you can just tell that they’re not faking it either. They are genuinely just down to earth and really caring. Their love story is probably the cutest one I’ve ever heard, well considering that I don’t know many love stories. Well Savanna’s parents met when they were both in art school together. Since Savanna’s mother was stressed with all the responsibilities that come with college she decided to take it out with well art. It’s funny because she randomly took paint and started painting on one of the walls in the school. Luckily she wasn’t caught because the school saw that it as a crime and threatened to kick out the “criminal.” Since Savanna’s dad was a rebel he decided to get in on the chaos and add to the painting. Soon the whole wall was covered with this insane intricate art. Finally they met and the rest is history.

                So like I said how could such an amazing day go downhill so fast? My parents decided to one of their famous drop ins. I came home and they were sitting in the dining room just waiting. Ugh they send shivers down my spine. How can someone be so evil and despicable? I always hated Mom’s glare. She has this brown hair that’s abnormally straight and shiny. I mean it’s too straight and shiny. She has these brown eyes that always seem so hardened and her lips are always stained in thick blood red. Mother only dresses in the top designer clothes and wears heels that could kill a roach on the corner. Dad is burly and wears this greasy comb over. He just screams sneaky and slimy.

                My first instinct was just to go to my room and hide, but I knew that wasn’t an option with them. So I just stood there staring at them like a deer caught in the headlights. Mother stared at me so intensely I thought she was trying to peer into my soul. Of course she started off with the usual questions like where was I, who was I with, do I do this every time we’re gone, do you want to be sent away to boarding school. I just stood there and lied and said I had been to the library. Of course mom had to sniff me for traces of alcohol and dad went through my bag to make sure that I wasn’t stashing anything. They found nothing of course then they made me sit downstairs with them and wait until Abbey got home.

                When Abbey arrived she had done the exact same thing that I did. She stood there like a dear in the headlights not knowing what to say or do. Mom and Dad interrogated her and then went into the other room. I hated having to hide how I felt about Abbey when our parents were home it killed me. I wanted to just snuggle with her and just help her to forget about it all but I already knew that wasn’t about to happen. They came back in the room and announced that they would be spending a lot more time at home. I swear I could have died right then and there in an instant everything had been completely turned around.

So right now Abbey is over in her own bed just staring at the ceiling and I’m in the corner writing. Neither of us knows what to say and neither of us knows what to expect. All we know is that we love each other and love is all you need right?

Abbey 11:17pm

Dear Journal,

They’re home. I’ve been crying ever since Crystal went to sleep. I hate when they’re home it scares me and I can’t sleep or relax at all. I don’t even know why they’re home to be honest they have no reason at all to be here. I know for sure that they’re staying long because they’re sleeping here tonight. They only sleep here when they plan to stay for a while. How long they’ll stay is a complete mystery to me.

It feels like we can’t even breathe in the house when they’re here. They probably have cameras and microphones in our room to watch our every move. I wouldn’t put it past them, they’re despicable. Everything is going to be changed until they decided to leave again. There won’t be any more long cuddles at night, no more wandering the house just holding hands. All of that is just going to be gone. I mean we can still do it but we’ll have to hide and I hate hiding. The only place I felt like I never had to hide was in me and Crystal’s room. I never had to hide with Crystal.

Everything about today was good until I came home. I hung out with a couple of my friends and Matt just so happen to be there. He keeps hitting on me and to be honest it really just makes me feel uncomfortable. We were over my friend Shelly’s house just hanging out and he had to come up next to me and just start talking. We have virtually nothing in common but the fact that our parents work with each other. He mainly did most of the talking, I just listened. I’m more of a listener anyway, but he wouldn’t even let me get a word in. It was like listening to a long drawn out lecture that with no questions asked in between.

I really don’t even know why all the girls in school like him. He’s nothing special if you ask me, he just has nicer hair and more money than a lot of the other guys at school. I tried to end the conversation, but he just kept going for it until I lied and said I had to go home. He asked for my number and I stupidly gave it to him. He hasn’t texted me back yet though. Knowing Matt he’s probably trying to be cool and do the whole 3 day wait thing. I hate that rule, text or call when you want to text me. I am not a game there are no rules. See this is another reason why I can’t stand guys. Ugh, I did not expect this day to turn out like this. All I wanted to do is lay across the couch and cuddle with Crystal. I guess that won’t happen tonight, I guess that won’t happen for a couple nights…good night journal good night.
