A Chapter by SiskaSands<3

‘Do we have to move? Again!’ I sighed, staring into the bright evening of the California sun. I’m anti-social and I wish I could change that, but some things in life have to stay the same, right? I couldn’t take back the memories, so I have to live with them every day. ‘Darlin y’all alright there?’ I looked at her eyes, hazel-green, I missed her, missed her so much, my step-loser Alex ruined everything by moving in, he’s alright, most of the time, but the problem is they’re suck ups, making sure everything is perfect, when I say that I mean, everything, just to impress those work mates and his ‘boss’. I wish my old dad was here, then it would have been great but a divorce is a divorce, what more can you say? ‘Hello, earth to Cassidy, y’all alright?’ Again that stupid accent of hers, her voice was a true Australians until we moved here, now she sounds like a hill billy with a bad case of a sore throat,(ugh.) just to impress her new soul mate for her brand new life, Alex. Oh and when I say they’re suck ups means his awful brat daughter, Mel. I sighed ‘I’m fine, it’s just that we have to move, again, to a place that no one’s heard of and I was kinda liking it here in California, plus my grades are great so why do we have to move?’ I stared at her, again, waiting for her to respond, but nothing. She slowly walked out of the door. I knew why we were moving but I still was blocking it out of my head. I paced back and forth in my almost empty bedroom, still remembering when I jumped to high on my bed and accidentally bumped my head on the wall, which left a little blood stain, it made me wince and I felt the scar it left me just above my temple, I got used to it, I guess, but it still made my flawless face now almost flawless, I stared into the mirror, I liked what I saw but my face, I wouldn’t say I was the skinniest of girls I was an average size so that my body would still look hot in a bikini, if I dared to wear one, I scanned my body, brown longish curly hair, dark brown eyes, a white toothy smile which then led to the singlet, jacket, tights with my one and only Gucci and a pair of ballet flats. ‘Mum, I’m ready, lets go.”

The car ride was a big bust, I ended up at the back with little miss perfect Mel in her tight pink mini dress which flashed way to much leg (gross!). It turns out just as I imagined it: boring and worthless, but look on the bright side its not likely for me to make friends, but I do feel a tad sorry for Mel, she had heaps of friends and she’s probably dumped the most guys in the world, but who actually cares, not me. Mel is one of those girls who has a rich daddy to come running to (and my step-loser by the way) , so practically all her troubles will be gone with a ‘please daddy’ and a ‘but I have to daddy’ then all he does is dial his assistant and wallah, all her problems are gone..Unlike me, I will always have the burden of me never seeing my proper dad again. Even though the car was a smooth white BMW, it still made me feel sick, I’ve always had a bad case of car sickness, but the gentle bump every now and then made it worse. The place we were moving to was a small suburban town in the country side with a high school but no primary school, what a stupid idea, a high school without a primary? My mum told me that it had a grocer that supplied you with all you need, a little dine in or take away café, and last but not least a petrol station….some town. The truth is I put up with all of this just to make my mum happy, is it worth it? Most people would probably ask. No. Is it good for me? Yes. So that I can avoid talking to people, then that brings on another story but we’ll save that for later. ‘Y’all look at that stunnin house, and guess who’s it is!’ my mum shrieked, I know that Mel and I definitely don’t get along but on this occasion we could agree on , it was amazing. ‘WOW’ Mel and I mimicked at the same time, are house was the only flash house here so what could possibly go wrong? Oh, was I in for a shock.
