CANILLE SCARLETT is just your average teenager if I may assume, straight A's, quiet, shy but still known by everyone
But what happens when your perfect geek starts to see the world differently
And things begin to change,the question now is "how wi...
10......20.....30.......40..... 40 seconds..... that's how long it took a mother to fish out a sheep who couldn't find its way in the midst of wolves, and that sheep had been my best friend " I said who is here?!" yelled my mum..... but I couldn't say anything I watch as my mother marched around my room searching for something or someone that didn't belong.....the moment she got close to my bed, I shriek gulping down saliva "mum.... mum calm down maybe you're just hallucinating " I say she smirks at me,at that moment she had forgotten that she wanted to get a thermometer for her sick child some seconds ago "Hallucinating?....you think I'm hallucinating......no... we both heard a phone ring and I seized your damn phone, canille ray Scarlett" my mum says....i knew she was serious because she called my middle name
I just watch now, she opens my closet, my bathroom and under my duvet and she realized there was only one place that she hadn't checked.....she squats as she checks under my bed..... She shoots me a glance and starts smiling profusely "so you brought a friend?"
"I can explain mum" I say.. why was she smiling....she looked like a real psychopath "go on, explain" mum says as Kaycee slowly comes out from her hiding spot "I know you said I was grounded.....I'm sorry it was all my fault" I say..... Kaycee just looks down at her feet, she couldn't bear to watch me take the blame for her mistakes
"so you went against my order and brought a stranger?"she says "she is not a stranger.....she's my best friend! "I yell..... my mum might have been 24 years older than me but I knew when to stand up for what I thought was right
"you brought a stranger to my house and you're calling her your best friend!?" she yells burying her smile In no minute it turned into a straight up scolding "I said she's not a stranger!, and I can do what I want to....besides I own my life....you can't tell me what to do!" I scream at her..... I've felt this feeling of awesomeness before....it happened when I stood up to Madison....mum licks her lips "what did you just say to me? " she asks, I look at her "I said you can't tell me what to do" saying it the second time made me feel weak "I can't tell you what to do?...did you know what I went through giving birth to you and your sister!" she starts crying and her voice broke "why does it matter.....she's dead now! " I say and mum falls to the ground "what's gotten into you?.... Is she the problem.....tell me is she the bad influence....what did she fill your mind with.....what did she tell you? " her tears dripped on the floor, I watch as she points at Kaycee.... I watch as she called Kaycee a bad influence
"she didn't tell me anything, she's not an influence.....you didn't even get to know her.... why judge a book by its cover? " I say.... mum looks at me as if she had something to say "it was my fault, Mrs Scarlett" a voice says and we both look at Kaycee who had been quiet....we were arguing about her, yet she just stood there "don't blame Cana.....please it was my fault....i snuck in here and even though cana told me to get out...i didn't listen...please don't yell at her" Kaycee says...mum couldn't believe her ears....so she had yelled at me for nothing "what?... what do you mean?" mum says, Kaycee heard everything about her being a bad influence and I don't think she'll ever want to meet my family....ever.
"it's okay....if that's how you feel about me....then I would leave your daughter alone...you don't have to worry about me, I won't bother her again " Kaycee says...she grabs her phone and waves "bye" she says looking sadly at me did I just loose my 40 hours best friend?.... Mum sighs "wait" she says and Kaycee stops "I'm sorry for everything I said about you.... you aren't an influence....the truth is....i had never seen canille stand up for anyone before not even herself....and if you taught her to do so.... then you can stay"mum says and Kaycee starts smiling "thanks Mrs S....I'm Kaycee"
