The World Is Crashing Down- Part 22

Taylor’s P.O.V

 

          I was sitting in Calli’s room texting Georg and Gustav. It was about eight o’clock now. Calli was in the bathroom dying her hair back to her natural color, dark brown. I was just looking around being nosy as usual. Then Calli walked in. My eyes got big.

          “What do you think?” she asked as she walked up toward me. “Are you Calli or Emily?” I asked laughing. “Very funny Taylor.” “Well, now you and Emily look identical, again!” she just hit me with a pillow while I was laughing. “So, Calli, when are you going to tell Emily the truth?” I asked her as I put my phone on the charger. “Tomorrow I will.” She said as she sat down on her bed. “You better!” I said throwing the pillow back at her.

 

Calli’s P.O.V

 

          “Don’t worry! I’ll tell her.” I said ducking away from the pillow of doom. Maybe I should tell Emily about how our mom didn’t want to help her anymore. It was her right to know after all.

          “Taylor, can I tell you something?” I asked her as I sat down next to her on the floor. “What about?” “Okay. I know you may think that I am lying about this, but I’m not. The real reason why I am hiding it from Emily is that my mom didn’t want to help her anymore.

          Taylor’s eyes got big and her jaw dropped. “Are you serious Calli?” “Yeah, I am. My mom said that she was getting tired of helping Emily. She said it was a waste of time and her money. She said Emily would be fine on her own.”

 

Taylor’s P.O.V

 

          I could tell Calli wasn’t lying. Her mom has literally lost her mind now. She was never like that before. “Why is your mom being like this?” “I don’t know. I broke down crying when my mom went into her room.” Calli said looking at me with sadness in her eyes. “Does your dad know about all of this?” “No. I couldn’t get in touch with him.”

          I truly didn’t know what to say to Calli. I was speechless, and that hardly ever happens to me. “I say you keep trying to get in touch with him and tell him what is going on. You also need to show him the evidence.” I said holding the results up to Calli. She nodded and took them.

 

Calli’s P.O.V

 

          I nodded as I took the paper from taylor. She was right. My dad did need to know this. I still can’t see how my dad was with this witch! It was very surprising to me.

          I heard someone come up the stairs. I was pretty sure I knew who it was, my mother. She opened my door and called me out. “Calli, come here real quick.” She said as she walked into the hallway. I got up and followed her and shut my door. “Where are the results at?” “In my pocket, why?” “Look, can you please put them in my room before Emily finds them?” I nodded my head at her. “Okay, I’m going to be at the store. I have to go meet somebody. I will be back in a little.” She said as she kissed my forehead and left out the door. One minute she is like a wild bull. Then, the next she is lovable again. I couldn’t understand her.

          I walked into my mom’s room and looked for a place to stash the results. I was looking all over the place. It sucked that my mom’s room was gigantic. I was trying to find like a file cabinet or something where she keeps her paper work. I went to go around her bed, but in the process I knocked some papers off of her dresser on accident. I bent down and picked them up. I saw this one document that said either “adaptation” or “adoption.” I couldn’t make out the letters. I read it closely and I saw that it was adoption papers. I kept reading it and it mentioned Emily’s name and mine. Then it clicked in my mind. Emily and I were adopted! That was why my mother said that she didn’t want to help Emily with the cancer anymore. We weren’t her real kids.

          I had to tell Taylor. I was rushing to put everything back. I grabbed the adoption papers and ran out the room. I ran all the way upstairs to my room. I could not believe this was happening. It was like I was in a dream that I could not wake up from.
