Aryn's POV
7 Years Later-
Crushing the small pill with the glass cup I had, I split it into two lines. Not wanting to get too high before going out for dinner but getting high enough that I could just function.
Not the best way to cope with trauma but the only way I could do so at the moment.
Snorting the line, I scoop the rest of the line onto a dollar bill to save for later before exiting the bathroom and putting on some light brown Chelsea boots.
"Aryn, we are going to be late!" My mom yells as she fixes her blonde hair in the mirror.
"Please be nice to her, I know you're not a big fan of her but please."
"She left because you adopted me mom and now you expect me to be okay with her being in our lives? Okay! Let's go meet up with my future other mommy!" I say with sarcasm laced in my voice.
"Watch the attitude Aryn!" She snaps with pure annoyance written on her face.
"You know what, just stay here if you're going to be like this!" She yells causing me to flinch at her voice.
"Whatever. You always choose Ali over me since she came back into our lives." I tell my mom before heading upstairs.
"That's not true! You're just putting stuff into your own mind!"
"When was the last time you went to one of my soccer games? How about my baseball games or my concerts or recitals or my gallery showings? What the hell more do I have to do to get your attention!" I scream at her as she looks taken back, knowing well she hadn't been to none of my school events in over a year.
"Oh yeah, you kind of forgot about me since the incident right? Sometimes I wish she would of just killed me." I mumble.
"Aryn Santana Harris!" I stop and take a deep breath, closing my eyes while I stand on the stairs.
"What mom? You're sorry? Well guess what. Actions speak louder than words!" I snap, tired of feeling this way with my mom. It's been a rough few years and we are both to blame actually.
I push past her as she tries to reach out for me.
