1 The day-to-day Today

"It's just.. What the actual fuck right?! They just gave me their money and expected me to keep it for them, like, they didn't even asked how I felt about everything. They just left it with me and gave me all of this unwanted tension and..."

This unwanted tension is gonna keep growing if you don't keep your fucking mouth shut.

"Mi, are you even listening to me?!"

Oh no, I think my smile was too fake. Gotta recompose, gotta recompose.

"Hmm? Ah, sorry, Perce. I just had things on my mind, but hey, girl let me tell you something..."

Heeeey, there's that stupid desperate face that wants to hear what I have to say. Mi is back in the game.

"The only reason they're leaving you their most valuable assets is because of one and one thing only, it's because they trust you."

She seems confused, bitch probably doesn't know what an asset is.

"You really think so?"

"Honey, I know so."

Damn that smile. I can never get used to it.

"Aw, thanks Mi, you really do know what to say!"

Yep, that's me, the best person to talk to in this house.

"Like, You're so wise and shit!"

Mmhmm. You're really outdoing yourself with the compliments there Perce.

"Maybe because your head is so big."

"Te voy a quemar las cejas."

(I will burn your eyebrows off)

"Hmm? What was that sweetie?"

"It means, Thanks for the compliment in spanish honey."

"Love ya girl!"

There she goes again, off in her own little world. Honestly I wouldn't even try interacting with her if she wasn't so amusing from time to time. It didn't help that the twins were out for work, Phil was getting himself cleaned downstairs , Palm was always asleep during the day, and I was the go-to friend whenever it comes to these emotional, crappy, problems.

Yes, that's me. The appointed therapist for these unstable, problematic fucks, only because people, "Can see themselves in me" or that "I can see them for who they really are" without having any biases, and let me say this, that it is true. I've had the ability to really see people for who they are no matter how thick their walls are, but is this what I asked for? No. I was forced into it. I don't have anywhere else to go, and showing off my real persona is only gonna make living here a lot more hell than it already is.

"Mi...?Mi!"

"Huh?What?! My head isn't that big!"

Ah shit. I said it, is this gonna blow my cover? If it is then I'm gonna have to find a way to move my ass to another room, or worse, another house.

"Hmm."

God fuck Perce, now you keep your mouth shut?! Say something for the love of Christ! Like what the actual fuck, you're gonna leave me hanging with that!? Are you really gonna leave me with all this unwanted tension and... Oh.

"So that's what it is..."

What it is?! Come one Perce you're dumber than that, you couldn't have figured out everything in that bit of context right?

"What?"

Right?

"Oh nothing, I just found out a little bit about yourself is all."

Shit.

"And what about myself did you find out?"

Compose yourself, your a fucking actress aren't you? A pretty damn good one as well.

"Wouldn't you like to know?"

Oh come on Perce, stop it with your fucking games. I'm getting pretty sick of your shit and that hasn't accounted for all the years we've been living together. Don't you dare make me fucking lash out at you.

"Well I would like to know, very much so in fact. If you don't tell me then maybe you aren't as trustworthy as I sought you out to be."

How about that honey? You gonna take that, or are you gonna lash out on me? Come on, show me your demons.

"That's not going to work on me a-anymore.... it might have before but... it won't... now."

It definitely did based on the sniffles in between the sentence.

"A-anyways! I'm not telling you! It's the first thing I've figured out about you and I won't let you take that away from me!"

And the crying ensues. Where was I at again? Shock, Denial, Anger, uh... Bargaining! Yeah, I can try that.

"Look. Sweetie. I don't need to know what you figured out about me ok? I just need you to promise me that you'll keep this between us."

"No, no you're right."

I am? I mean, of course I am. I always am, but she admitted it?

"I'll tell you not just because you've been there for me but because you're my friend."

Holy shit that worked. I'm shocked to be honest, I thought she was just a self-centered bitch that couldn't discern what it means to be a decent person. I guess she has her own meri-

"It's about your big head isn't it?"

And it's gone. Haha, and I was worried about nothing, that's a relief.

"I mean it looked like you were so deep in thought about it and, I didn't want to disturb you. I'm sorry!"

"No, don't be, and you know, I'm just a l'il insecure about it haha."

She really is stupid. They probably all are.

"Well. We all have something we're all insecure about ain't that right girl?"

I hate her, with all of my passion.

"Yep, that's right!"

I

"And you know..."

Will never

"If there's something still bothering you..."

Be as pathetic and as disgusting

"You can always talk to me alright? I'll always be available for you."

As her.

"Yeah, of course honey. After all, we are besties!"

I'll get out of this hell hole sooner or later. In fact I can probably get out of here now since I'm so sick of this charade. I could have just waltzed my way out of here a long time ago.

"Yeah we are! The best of the best!"

If only I wasn't a mirror.
