I can’t believe this shit he took her away he took her a fucking way! God I’m so angry snd pissed right now. How dare he! Who the fuck does he think he is? Oh right, her brother that’s who? Who gave him the right to come into our house and take her away? He has no fucking right.

Right now I’m fucking fuming how dare he take her away from me! How dare he take Hope away form me! We had a good thing going, yet she has no fucking idea why I was doing this to her. Sometimes I wondered why, then I look at her and hate her even more for coming into my life. Both of them coming into our lives other were perfect without them in it.

I can’t believe Caleb would let that prick take her away. I wasn’t finished with her, she’d be okay if her face and mouth didn’t ruin it. I’ve never I’m my whole life met a girl like her . She’s brash and she doesn’t give a shit when she opens her mouth, the words just flow through. She had no idea that makes me more furious. I was never like this before she come into my life I was more passive. Me and Caleb became friends through pure coincidence he caught the bullies for me something I was forever grateful for now here I am doing the exact same thing. Im a fucking coward . I should’ve just voiced out why I had her so fucking much, but instead I used my fists and my feet. I’m o ashamed of myself right now but I can’t help what I do she riles me my father had always told me never to hit a woman, but here I am beating my stepsister to a pulp through pure hatred. Yes I hate her for coming into our lives. I was fine not having anyone but dad around after mom up and left two years ago and I definitely didn’t need a mother figure in my life right now. And I definitely didn’t need a sister to go with it. But dad being dad had feel for her fucking mother and decided he was going to marry her. Fuck I hate me fucking life.

‘Hey what you thinking about?’ Caleb asked. I’m surprised he’s still talking to my pathetic ass.

‘Nought.’

‘She wouldn’t be there of it wasn’t for you you know that right?’

Yeah yeah. I’m sick of him telling me this shit over and over again I get it I fucked up what else was I supposed to say, but...’Whatever.’

‘It’s just a couple of month s Josh if I can handle it I’m sure you can.’

‘I’m glad she’s there at least I don’t have to see her sorry ass or hear her fucking voice for two months. I’m glad she’s not here.’

‘Whatever. But I’m glad to so you don’t have to take out your anger issues out on her and best her to a pulp just cause her mom married your dad.’ He looked at me. ‘Have you ever thought she may feel the same as you?’

I had, but that didn’t matter to me what mattered is how I felt. I didn’t care for her feelings in this just mine.

‘Not really no.’ I lied, truth is I didn’t really care.

‘It had to be hard on her to Josh she up and left her old life, her friends to move to some where she didn’t know to become part of a family she probably didn’t want to be part of, and you not making it easy for her made it ten times worse. Just think about it Josh you have two months to get your shit straight before she comes back.’

‘Sure whatever.’

‘I have to go. Just think about it.’

‘Whatever.’

He pulled himself up walked toward the door, opening it. ‘You need to do what’s right Josh. You need to put all this hate you have for her behind you and move on. Later.’

‘Yeah later.’

He closed the door. I don’t need him to decide I already know this situation will never change so there is no need in trying to change it I’ve already made my mind up she’ll regret returning to this house. Our parents asked where she had gone when they came home. I couldn’t tell them the truth so I lied. Then that prick of a bother rang telling her mother that she was doing an eight week course at the centre to toughen her up so she could take care of herself when the bullies tried to attack her again. Her mom gasped telling him she had no idea they were still bullying her seem as she had no new bruises. They talked for an hour then said their goodbyes.

As far as I’m aware he picked up her things a day later like I care. I can’t wait till these eight weeks srmeuo cause she won’t know what’s hit her.
