Legacy

Chapter 32

At school Emily walks past Miss Ranyon's class room at lunch to get to the library and as if they knew Emily was avoiding them, Miss Ranyon and Miss Holmes both walked out of the classroom. 

"Emily, can I talk to you for a second?" Miss Ranyon said as Emily sighed and put on a fake smile and walked over to them. 

"What would you like?" Emily asked innocently knowing full well they would be asking where her sisters are. 

"Where are your sisters today none of them are in today?" 

"Well... they have... the... flu." Emily thought of fast.

"The flu? All of them?" Miss Holmes questioned.

"Yeah, well Addy got it and um, Stacie was with her last night when she was vomiting, so she picked it up and Beca did... too." Emily wasn't completely lying. Addy was throwing up at some point.

"Well, I hope they get well soon." 

"Me too." Emily mumbled as they walked off. She knew that they didn't believe her but at this point she doesn't care. 

-----------------------------------------

At the end of the day Emily climbed into Stacie's car and said nothing the whole journey. Emily was praying that Stacie would say something to her. Or even look at her but the whole journey was just awkward. When they arrived at home Stacie remained silent as she got out of the car and walked upstairs and into her own bedroom. 

Emily hated this. Normally she would at least be able hold a conversation with Stacie but it seemed like Stacie couldn't hold a conversation with anyone. 

"Hey Addy would are you doing?" Emily said when she got to Addy room. 

"Emily, Knock next time Jeez!" Addy said and turning back to her painting and dancing to her music she had playing.

"I was just wondering if you were okay?" 

"No! But what would you know! You weren't there so you will never know. Can you just go away! And stop quizzing me!" Addy finished trying out her knew attitude on Emily and kind of liked the kick she got out of it. 

"Woah. I was just asking. Fine if you don't want to talk don't just don't have a go at me about it." Emily left. She left like an idiot her went into own room and screamed into her pillow. She hated being the strong one. 

She had problems too but what does her family care. She is always left out and Emily is getting fed up of it. If she made a plan to make herself noticed she knows she wouldn't go through with it as she knows that without her, her family would actually full apart but of course they don't know that. Because if they didn't use her as a punching bag then who else would they yell at. If they found out that she had problems then the problems would be thrown to the side anyway and called inferior. One day they will hear her, they will hear her scream.
