Chapter 2

Rosella sat in class listening to the Skinny man in an oversized suit talking about the Biology topic boldly written on the white board. Her attention is taken by two birds flying in the sky before her mind wonders off to a previous memory that has been hunting her for years.

"I really wish you'd stop making this a big deal Susan!!!" Rosella yells at her sister whose pale skin is red with anger, her black hair packed in a messy bun and her brown eyes trying to concentrate on the road as she drives with the headlights of the car as her only source of light.

"making it a big deal? you snuck out of the house at this ungodly hour to go to a college party, you didn't only put yourself in danger but you had me worried sick!!! Just look at what you are wearing!!!. Susan screams at Rosella, occasionally looking at her direction and back at the road

Rosella flips her brown hair, rolls her eyes and folds her skinny arms across her chest which raises her skimpy black dress higher above her thighs. "you are not my mother" she murmurs.

Furious, Susan pulls the car to a stop in the middle of the road, not caring where she was and looks at Rosella. "I'm obviously not your mother Rose! I am your sister, with a good number of years between us and we are meant to stand by each other, we are meant to support each other but I guess you don't want that, I guess you want to turn me to the enemy here" She yells with irritation and disdain.

"You turned yourself into the enemy! You abandoned us, you left me, no words." Rosella responds with rage "That wasn't my fault and you know it, mother disowned me" Susan replies calmly.

"she disowned you but she never deleted my number from your phone, she never said you can't see me, you left and forgot me!" Rosella responds "it was your choice! yours alone so do not feed me that crap! if you want a better sister, find a time machine and go back 2 years ago because you are literally dead to me" was the last thing Rosella said before a speeding truck horn distracts both of them. Susan struggles to turn on the car which refuses to start, they look at each other for a split second before...

"Miss King!!" the teacher says trying to get Rosella's attention, "Miss Rosella King!!!" he tries again obviously irritated because of the number of time he has tried. Rosella finally snaps out of her trance and looks his way "yes sir?".

The teacher sighs from exhaustion "I asked you a question". Looking around her to see laughing faces watching her "oh, ummm sorry, what question was that?" the whole class erupts into laugher. The teacher shakes his head "it was, are you paying attention Miss King"

"Well, I am now" Rosella replies with a smile. The teacher shakes his head and continues with the class, Rosella sighs and tries to concentrate on what he is teaching
