Zelena walked home... late, mainly because she got high from the stuff that she got from Ashtray earlier and wanted to blow off her high before coming home, but since she hadn't checked in with her brother all day, she knew she was going to be in some shit when she walked in the house.
She knew her brother gave up nearly everything to come back and be her guardian. He could've let her get put in the system, but he didn't. He stepped up and took care of her. Zelena always used to wish that Benjamin was closer to her age, but when their parents died, she was happy for their five-year age gap because if he were closer to her age, they probably would've gotten separated in the system.
"Fuck..." Zelena mumbled to herself as she paced outside the open garage, trying to calm herself down before she walked inside to face her brother, who she knew would be pissed. "Okay." She said, taking a deep breath before stepping inside the house by the door near the kitchen.
She entered the kitchen where her brother sat on the island. "Where were you?" Benjamin asked as soon as she walked in the door.
"I went to eat with Rue." She lied. She was with Rue, so that part wasn't a lie, but they didn't eat, and Benjamin scoffed. Knowing that Rue was also an addict, he believed they were together, but he didn't believe they just went to eat.
"What do you mean you went to eat?" Benjamin asked.
"What do I mean? I mean that Rue and I went and got food, and we ate it; that's what going to eat means." Zelena said before she tried to walk off to her room.
"What? Don't walk away from me." Benjamin said, standing up from the island as Zelena continued to walk to her room. "You know what, Zelena? I don't trust you." Benjamin said, making his way to the hallway to follow his sister to her room.
"I don't know what you want me to say, Ben." She said.
"I want you to tell me where you were," Benjamin said.
"I just said I went to fucking eat!" Zelena snapped, raising her voice.
"Don't you talk to me like that, Zee! You know what? I'm going to drug test you." Benjamin said as Zelena got to her room and slammed the door behind her right as Benjamin got to the outside of it. "What are you slamming your door for?" He asked.
"It was an accident," Zelena said.
"I don't care. You're not leaving this house until you take a drug test." Benjamin said.
"I just peed!" Zelena exclaimed. Zelena heard her brother scoff before walking away from her door, and she took a deep breath, knowing that if she took a drug test, she wouldn't pass. "Shit." She mumbled to herself.
Now, there are a few ways to beat a drug test. The first is simple. Stop doing drugs. But, if you're in a bind and totally fucked like me and Zelena are, option one: niacin. It's a B vitamin that, like, breaks down fat and chemicals or whatever, and if you take a lot of it, like 2,000 milligrams, then chug a few gallons of water, you can flush your system in two to three days.
