SHE

Six

After I left home I didn't go to Molly's, that would be the first place they check.

I stayed at Betty's.

She was one of my friends from middle school and she was kind enough to let me stay for as long as I wanted .

I wasn't planning to stay long, I just wanted to see if dad cares for me.

Just two days at Betty's was killing me, then I came up with an idea to make both Kate and Dad regret watching me leave.

I asked Betty to injure my leg, not just any injury the kind that will make those two regret till they die.

She wasn't into it so I dropped myself down the stairs, I might have been unconscious the next thing I remember I was in the hospital with a fractured leg, bruises on my shoulder and cheek.
Not what I was going for, but it also worked.

Dad paid for the bill and we went home, he made me dinner and we ate together, Kate didn't even show up in my room or near it .

I WONDER WHY.

The following few days I didn't go to school as I was injured.

Molly visited daily, we took a walk in the park, then one day Jesse joined us. Molly gave us privacy.

"Don't ever disappear on me like that", he said ever do sweat.

I turned to him, "I think dad and Kate are getting a divorce".

I don't know why but when I'm with Jesse I feel like I can be free, I always open up to him.

"And will that make you happy ?".

"Yah. Have you been listening to me all this time, I hate Kate I want her gone".I told him.

"What about your father will he be happy, and Leo, he's still young he needs both his parents around, will you be able to live knowing you ruined your father and brother's lives".

I haven't thought about it, actually I haven't thought about anyone but myself.

I've been thinking about my happiness and no one else's.

"Is this what you really want, to destroy your brother's life?,"

"Half brother" I corrected him.

"He's still your brother", then he's phone rang it was Amanda, he quickly hang up.

I sighed and looked at him.

"First it was your brother now it's you, if you guys really like this girl, why can't you just go for her and stop playing with my feelings".

(still not jealous).

I got up unable to stand properly as he rose up holding my arm to balance me.

"It's not that", he said "I have to confess something". (OKAY), "At your birthday party after you left I kind of had too much to drink and kissed Amanda".

I looked at him, "I stopped it as soon as I realized who it was, I'm really sorry Amy".

It's official I'm evil.

I sat down slowly full of regrets, "I have something to say too".

he sat down facing my direction, "I slept with Jay", he moved back looking at me with deadly piercing eyes, "It was an accident".

"When?". He asked.

"At my birthday party". He stood up that second, I stood up too, "I'm sorry Jesse".

"I will call Molly to come pick you up", he said walking away.

"And where are you going?", I shouted but he kept on watching away till he got into he's car and drove off.
