Welcome to my Life- [Pic of Jackie]

Picture of Jackie at the side. Enjoy! (:

Prologue:

Lets start off with the basics. My name is Marcela Evans. I am a 17 year old chick. Im a white girl with black hair and blue awesome eyes. I really love my eyes. I like to have fun and do crazy stuff. But im not the type to not care about a lot of things. Only things that are retarded. Useless, lame stuff are not worth my time. I need to live life my fullest before it ends which no one knows when.

I have an older pregnant twin sister, a dead mom, and a dad that is photographer/traveler. I think I used to have a dog too but im not so sure. Oh yeah! How could I forget? I have an awesome beyond awesomeness bestfriend. Her name is Nelly. I live with her and her mom. Sure my house is right next to her place but its so lonely and quiet there. Plus my dad and Heather, Nellys mom, wants me to.

Its only me in my house since my mom is dead, my dad is gone, and since my sister ran away before my mom died. Im not sad or depressed or anything. I try to be happy. Actually theres no use in using the word 'try'. I am happy. My quote in life is, "live life your fullest" and i have so far. Everything in the past makes me who I am now and Im not gonna regret lots of things cause they make me who I am. Hey! Lets go back in time, shall we.

**Flashback (4 months ago)**

Ma, Jackie, and I were sitting around the table eating dinner. Jackie was playing with her food and i was staring at her plate. I dont even know what we were eating but Ma said it was healthy and would help us with our figure.

"Start eating girls. I made this for a reason." Ma snapped at us with a slight accent. We started to dig in and an awkward silence filled the room.

Dad would be coming home in a few minutes. I hope he could get rid of this silence.

"Ma I need to tell you something." Jackie said after wiping her mouth with the napkin beside her.

"What is it sweetie?" she said, staring directly at her. I was doing the same. Jackie was fidgeting in her seat looking very uncomfortable.

"I think Im pregnant." I dropped my fork. Jackie's eyes snapped toward mine and I muttered an apology. Ma was just staring at her. Jackie and I were both waiting for her rage.

"Did you take a pregnancy test?" Jackie answered with a 'yes'. "How many did you take?" Ma asked again.

"Three." Jackie whispered.

"What did it say?" Ma asked. We were both surprised at how she was taking this so well. We were expecting her to be outraged, not calm.

"They were all positive." Jackie said, trembling. Then in a blink of an eye Ma slapped her. Spoke to soon.

I winced. It wasnt expected and the force was too much that Jackie fell off her chair and onto the floor. Ma was standing above her. I got up from my chair ready to take action if something worse happened.

"Your getting an abortion." You could literally see the fire in her hazel eyes.

"Its my child so its my decision." Jackie spat, caressing her cheek. Ma grabbed her face in between her thumb and fingers and the fire in her eyes grew. Jackie could see that too cause she froze but never broke contact. Ma was so close to her face that their noses were touching.

"I can never call you my daughter anymore. You are a filthy whore." my sisters eyes were watery now and so was mine. That was a low blow. Then Ma shoved Jackie's face away from hers and said, "Go to your room."

Jackcie stood up and ran up the stairs to our master bedroom. My mom sighed and sat down. I walked around the table and stood next to her. I was about to give her a hug but I stopped when she moved away from me.

"Get out of my face." Her voice was cold and she started to clean the table. I walked out of the kitchen and into the room I shared with Jackie. I walked in and shut the door softly.

Jackie was in the closet putting clothes in her backpack and other things. Right that moment I knew she was going away but what I didnt know was for how long. Jackie looked up when I whispered her name and gave me a smile. She was really beautiful even with a new bruise on her face. I know it sounds crazy and dumb but I wish I was just as beautiful as her.

She walked up to me and wrapped her arms around me and I did the same. We stood there for a while, not exchanging a word. There was no need. Our bond was really strong and we could just feel the love for each other. We broke apart when we heard the front door slam shut informing us that Pa was home. It was then that I realized I was crying.

She looked me in the eyes with a small smile and wiped my tears away. We could hear our parents talking in the kitchen. She then took a step back and put her hands on my shoulder.

"Hey, dont cry. I dont want my last image of you like this. I promise I'll come back for you but it might be a while when i'll come back." this made me cry more and she shed a few tears as well. I hugged her again, this time tighter.

"I love you, Marcela."

"Take care Jacks. I love you too." I watched her open our window and step on the rope ladder we would use to sneak out.

"Cover for me while I get a heads start." she then blew me a kiss and left.
