"Mommy look!" a little girl said as she raised an award from school to show her mother, who was standing over the kitchen counter cutting carrots,
"What do you have there little now?" the mother asked as she smiled while taking the little girl's award. The warm smile the mother had suddenly fell as she looked at the award, Best writer in class was what the award said,
"What's this?" the mother asked looking down at the child, who was looking at her waiting for praise,
"I got this award from class! Everyone else got something to do with their behavior and their math skills but I was the only one to get a writing award," the little girl explained as her smile widened with every word, however, the mother's smile turned into a frown as the little girl spoke. As the mother was about to say something another person walked into the room and the little girl's attention turned to the person entering the room,
"Daddy!" the little girl sh

The little girl listened to her weeping mother and her father who hushed his wife as she cried, "Hunny, it will be ok, she will overcome this slight obsession with writing and understand that following the path we have laid for her brothers and her is the best path for her," the father spoke as he rubbed his wife's back, "But what if she doesn't? What if she continues to follow this path? We will lose money and our daughter will suffer from her horrible decisions," the mother wept, her body shaking from the force of her sobbing. The little girl held back her tears as she heard her parents speaking to one another, the little girl wondered what was so wrong with her love for writing and why her parents were forbidding it; the little girl walked up to her room to where she was safe to cry her heart out. **************************************************************************** "For years I listened to you two go back and forth about m

I woke up the next morning sore and reluctant to get up from bed, "Saph, we need to get up and go to school. We only have two days left before we graduate," Dime called from the hallway before peeking her head into my room, "Why aren't you out of bed yet?" Dime asked as she walked in and sat on my bed, "Everything hurts," I answered as Dime took the blanket off of me, "Well, let's get you some painkillers and then change your bandages," Dime said as she helped me out of bed, apologizing for every time I groaned in pain. Dime brought me to the kitchen where breakfast was waiting for me at the table, "Eat before you take your pills after you take your pills I'll change your bandages," Dime said as she pushed the eggs to me; I happily ate the eggs that Dime had made for me before forcing myself to swallow the pills Dime set in front of me, "Here is some water," Dime said as she brought a cup to me,

Dime and I rushed to our next class, trying to ignore all the looks we were getting as we ran to our second class. "We haven't even had lunch yet and we are already in the center of attention again," Dime said as I dragged her to our next class, "I wonder who did this to us?" I asked, sarcasm dripping off of my words as we rushed by the boys, who gave us worried looks and tried to talk to us but stopped as they saw our glares. Dime and I entered our second class, which basically had the same reaction as the first class, "Sapphire, Diamond, so nice to see you two. I hope the two of you are doing well after your run-in with the gang," our teacher said, he had the sense to keep the welcome speech short and to the point, "Thanks," Dime and I replied as we headed to our seats, "Ok, before we start the class, does anyone have any questions for Sapphire and Diamond?" our teacher asked, Dime and I looked at one another an

"Are you okay?" Dime asked as she scooted over to me and hugged me as I let my tears fall, "Why did I have to fall for him Dime?" I asked as I cried into her shoulder, "I don't know Saph, I ask myself that same question when I think about Tom," Dime replied as she hugged me tighter, "It's not fair that we had to fall for the people who caused us so much harm," I cried out, Dime held me tighter and let me cry my heart out while her own tears fell. By the time Dime and I were done crying the bell signaling lunch was over rang, "Ready for class?" Dime asked as she unwrapped her arms from me, "I guess," I responded, wiping my eyes of the leftover tears; Dime smiled and helped me stand up, "Let's just get through the rest of school and eat a lot of ice cream when we get home," Dime offered with a smile, I laughed and nodded in agreement, "Let's do that!" I shouted while laughing. Dime and I

Dime stumbled into the truck in time for me to throw the truck in reverse and watch the boys run and trip to get out of my way, knowing full well that I would hit them if they didn't move, "Saph, slow down," Dime begged as I sped out of the school parking lot, but I didn't slow down, I was so pissed with how today had gone that I let my anger fill me as I pushed the gas down further. "Saph," Dime said as she grabbed the door for support as the truck sped down the roads leading home, "Saph!" Dime shouted as we took a corner really fast, the truck seemed to have taken the corner on only two wheels, "What?!" I shouted back as I slammed on the breaks throwing Dime a look, "Don't yell at me! You were going to kill us! I understand that you are upset with how today went, but I would like to live to graduate high school," Dime growled out as she glared at me; I sent Dime an apologetic look as I realized how scared she looked a

The man in question glared at Dime and me as we laughed our asses off, "Excuse me, but who are you two?" the man asked, looking at his superior wondering why two girls were listening in to the conversation they were having, "We live in this apartment complex," I answered as my laughing calmed down, "And why are you here?" the man asked, "Because we live in apartment 8," Dime answered as she glared at the man who took the bribe from my parents, the man took a step back in surprise and looked back at his superior, "Sir?" the man asked as he looked from Dime and me to his superior, "Their apartment is trashed and the cameras pointing to their door shows two people breaking in and breaking their stuff while writing threatening messages. Do you have any idea how this could have happened?" the officer asked his worker, the man looked at us again and lied, "Sorry sir, but I have no idea how th

Trish and the officer followed Dime and me into our apartment, "Goodness, your parents really did make a mess in your place," Trish said as she looked at the mess around her, "Yeah, sorry, it's usually cleaner than this," I said sheepishly as I rubbed the back of my neck in embarrassment, Trish shook her head and turned to look at me "Oh honey, I believe you. I can't believe your parents would do this," Trish said as she looked at Dime and me apologetically, "How about I start making some food and you guys can talk," Dime offered as she pointed towards the destroyed TV room, "Sounds good to me," Trish and the officer said as they headed towards the room and started picking stuff up. Trish and the officer helped clean up our apartment as they listened to me explain more about my past and listening to what had been happening in the past few months, "Wow, I can't believe that all happened," Trish said as she handed

Dime and I woke up feeling excited and refreshed, "Ready for Graduation?" Dime shouted from her room as she got out of bed, "Totally, you?" I shouted back as I entered the bathroom before Dime, "Totally, I'm ready to get out of here," Dime admitted as she threw open the door to the bathroom and joined me in it as I brushed my teeth, "However, I'm not ready to face the boys again as well as our entire school," Dime said as she stepped into the shower, "I agree, it's going to be horrible in that sense," I nodded as I washed my face at the sink, "Do you think our parents will show up?" Dime asked as she peeked her head from behind the bathroom curtain, "I'm not sure, I hope they don't," I answered before walking out of the bathroom and back to my room. I shoved on a white crop top before pulling up some red dress pants "Wait, won't your parents be there because of your brothe
