Chapter 6, Part 1: Half Siblings' Quarrel

Monday

Jessica Caulfield 

     "Oh God, Gabrielle! Hurry the fuck up! We're gonna be late!" Agh, jeez. I swear to God I'm gonna leave this girl here in the boy's bathroom alone. "Is it done already?!"

     "Just wait for a second! The marker's acting a bitch right now. It's all blurry!" she said frustratedly while inside the cubicle.

     "Well, first of all. It's not my fuckin' idea to vandalize your crush's favorite cubicle saying that Uhh Joshua I love you so muchh will you be my prom date? xoxo from the girl sitting behind you at the fucking computer lab huh? Right girl?" I mocked.

     "Just...shut up okay? It's my only chance! And we can't do this later since the boys are coming in here at break." she said and she sounds like she's pissed "It's either to do the move or nothing moves." she then said sarcastically.

     "Oh woah, okay so you - literally invited me to go with you...skip the quiz we're currently having...just to vandalize in the boys' bathroom for your freaking crush, and tell me to shut up... Ugh for fuck's sake, Gabrielle! Like oh my God, I literally cannot stand you right now...just finish it already!"

     "Okaaay, it's all done." she said then went out "Oh God, I'm all sweaty as hell. Come on, let's go," she said while wiping herself with her face towel.

     "Ugh - thank God," I said then we already went out.

     As we walked out of the boys' bathroom, a nerd just suddenly bumped into us and he's probably going to the bathroom. He's so confused as he saw us walk out from there like he literally looked at us back and forth a couple of times.

     We're walking back to class, hoping that we still have time. Ugh, I swear to God I'm gonna kick this girl's ass when I failed this one. My dad will kill me for sure.

     "Ohh, Ms. Caulfield, and Ms. Alexander. What took the both of you so long?" Mrs. Bathory asked as we walked inside.

     I hate her.

     "Uhhh - yeah. Gabrielle just had some serious uhmm - personal issues...you know." I murmured, trying to reason out this girl's filthy deeds.

     "Okay? Go back to your proper seats and do the quiz before the time is up," she said then sat down on her chair.

     "Thank you, Ma'am." Gabrielle and I said in unison.

     Duhh.

     Then we already went back to our seats and started to do the quiz. As if I enjoy solving this shitty calculus.

     And finally, the bell rang. Ahhh frick, I swear I already wanna go out, it feels like hell in here. I don't even understand anything. We got out of the classroom already and ahhh...freedom it is.

     "Do you have any plans for later?" Gabby asked while we're walking in the hall.

     "I don't think so. My head hurts because of that stupid math shit. I'll just go straight to bed already and that's all it is." I said while on my phone. We went to the bathroom to go fix ourselves up.

     "Wow, you've changed huh. It's kind of funny because before your mom died; you go out and party with us all night without her knowing. And now that she's gone, and you're literally and absolutely free, you just suddenly changed like what the hell. You were also the one that invites us to go party back then, even though your parents treat you like a freaking princess or more like a damn rapunzel and shit." Gabrielle said while retouching her lips. And I just went inside a cubicle to go pee.

     I sat on the toilet "Well, obviously Gabrielle, I just lost my mom though and I kinda felt bad about what I did before. And yeah, I'm tired of all that shit so, nope. And don't even put that as a good thing, cuz it's not." I said then went out of the cubicle and washed my hands.

     "Yeah, so - we'll see you soon? Or you're seriously gonna act like a "good girl" now?" she said sarcastically and finished doing her makeup.

     This freaking girl has so much makeup on, jeez.

     "Well, duhh? I'm gonna go now Gabrielle, it's getting late. My dad will kill me." I said then went out of the bathroom already and left her in there alone. "Bye girl!" I shouted outside. And now I'm already heading to my car in the parking lot.

     I just saw my half brother's car from a distance and is heading towards me. He drove closer to me and stopped in front of me. He rolled down his car windows and asked

     "Where the hell are you going? It's getting late, dad will worry about you."

     "What do you care? And obviously, I'm just about to go home already but you're freaking here right now talking to me." I said and raised my eyebrows while shrugging then I opened my car door.

     " Also, get out of my way because how am I supposed to get out if you're blocking my car weirdo?" I added, then rolled my eyes and went inside my car.

     He then reversed his car. I already accelerated my car and was about to go out the campus already, I looked at my side mirror and saw him park his car at the exact same spot where I parked my car earlier. What the fuck? Wait, why is he here though, to begin with? He doesn't really go here nor pick me up to drive me home. Then he got out of the car and walked towards the school buildings. Seriously? Every time that I see him he's always wearing a suit and it's getting kinda cringy. I haven't seen him in civilian attire for years now.

     I parked outside of the campus and got out of my car and followed him but remained my distance. And he's not even looking back though. Then he went inside a classroom. I waited for a minute and peeked inside and I saw him talking to...Alissa? What the hell? This girl literally takes everything from me.

     "Awww, how cute," I said as I walked inside.

     We're the only ones in the classroom so it's perfect. They seemed shocked as they see me walked inside.

     "Awww. You should see your faces right now."

     I walked towards her and put both my arms on her desk. "You're literally taking every man in my life one by one huh? You filthy slut. First is Jason. Second, my half brother. Who's gonna be the third, honey? My dad? I'm so tired and sick of you, Alissa. You're ruining my life piece by piece, you piece of shit." I said in a loud and mocking tone and gestured every word I've said.

     "Cut it out, Jessica!" Elijah shouted at me.

     "Ah? Really? Bro? Are you seriously gonna choose that bitch over me? Over our family?" I said as I put my right hand on my chest.

     "It's not what you think it is!" he yelled then stood up.

     "Oh, clearly! It's literally not what I think, it's definitely what I see. Bro." then I air quoted

     "Well, fuck off. And yeah, I don't even treat you as my family. And what do you mean by family? We're not even a family. Ever since you came into our lives, you ruined everything! Dad's attention was all yours! Dad doesn't even care about me anymore! I literally lived by myself for years in a whole freaking house alone because you goddamn came into this fucking world! So don't even try to put that against me." he said and is walking towards me for every word he said, so I had moved back and he got me pinned against the wall.

     "Sue me for being a dick to a girl like you, but I don't give a shit. You're just my half-sister and that's all it is. I don't really care about you, honestly. So don't ever make me choose, because I'll never choose you." he said while moving his head closer to me.

     I pushed him "Okay fine, go ahead." then I waved him away. "I don't really care." I rolled my eyes then already walked towards the door then turned back for a second "And you, piece of shit. I just wanna say, congratulations! You got promoted bitch! From Mrs. McKenley to Mrs. Caulfield wannabe. Alissandra Cadence-Caulfield, awww... Is that what you wanna hear? Well, ew. It doesn't fit you, honey." then already walked out "Enjoy yourselves, sluts!" I shouted outside.

     Agh! They're really getting on my nerves! I'm so annoyed as frick. I just got back to my car and drove back home. A few moments later, I arrived at our street and shit - I just saw my dad standing in front of our yard. I'm so dead. I parked in front of our house and went out of my car and walked towards dad.

     "Where the hell have you been, Jessica?" he asked as I walked closer to him. He seems pretty pissed, his hands are on his waist while staring at me furiously.

     Ugh, think Jessica! Think!

     I just bowed my head, trying not to make eye contact so that I won't mess up "I'm sorry dad, I just - had to go get something from Gabrielle's house. Something important for our upcoming exam." I said while still looking down. That's the worst lie I've ever made. I just got home 30 minutes late and here I am. Gabrielle's right, I'm a goddamn princess in this house.

     He just sighed and scratched his head "Just go get inside, dinner's ready." he said and already walked inside first and he's still mad, then I also walked inside. And we ate dinner peacefully, I feel really bad because he even cooked my favorite food, Poutine. Then after that, I already went straight to bed. I just wanna end this shitty day that I had.
