"How you're hiding Polly at the Pembrooke?"Betty's mum said, looking at the three of us like we are criminals. "Better than in an insane asylum," Betty whispered. "Actually, Mrs.Cooper, that's on me. I was the one who suggested that Polly stay with Veronica and her family," I said, feeling guilty. "She's trying to help. Unlike you and Dad, who want Polly to give the baby up for adoption.". "Betty, it's what's best for Polly and the baby.". "Mom, that's not your choice. Your choice is whether or not you want to be a part of Polly's life. Veronica and her mom have offered to host a baby shower," Betty says, smiling at us but her mum rolled her eyes at the idea. "Well, that is hardly appropriate!". "Really? Because I think it's an amazing idea. You want to be loving and supportive like a normal grandmother? Then, great. Otherwise, stay away," Betty then drags out back to the gang but I can't believe she's finally standing up for herself. I'm proud. "You are definitely my wcw!" I said as we bumped hips and went to our boyfriends who clearly missed us because they almost jumped in our arms as we arrived. I went to my dad's cafe after school to check up on him and maybe steal some cookies. "Hey, dad! I want my cookies!". I screamed but I saw him nod on the phone and it looked serious. "Hey sweetheart, your mother wants to talk to you. I took the phone but I just couldn't speak so I just listened. "Lila. You and even your sister Anna mean a lot to me, more than you will ever know. I know how much you love Riverdale but you loved experiencing what the world has to offer more than anything. It's hard to have a family when you have only just started to discover everything. I never want you to feel like you have to stay in Riverdale because of small things like your father or possibly love because love will come and go but your dreams are there with you forever. You are free to come visit me anytime or even join me for a night during my show because I want you to do what you love and always put yourself first. I will always love you and Anna, I could never forget about you,". "It seems like you already have and if Anna was here, she'd tell me to never forgive you because you are just abandoning this family for yourself. And don't you ever speak of Anna. You lost that right the day you didn't even show up to the funeral," I said and hung up the phone and started crying in my father's arms. I really loved Anna, she was my best friend and older sister. She was so smart and always loved to prove that but I don't know, one day she just switched into this person that no one recognized and my mum just wanted her out of the house. I tried to help her but she said things and I said things that we couldn't take back and I've always had to live with the fact that she hates me. It was my fault she died.
