Skylar stood in the living room with mariana by her side “don’t tell
me your gay” she eyed her mother “please just listen for once and I want you
not to be upset” mariana looked at her and she nodded. She pulled out the baggy
with some of the coke left in it and placed it on the table “MARIANA how dare
you!” she smiled and skylar sat down “mom…….” She looked to her “no” she nodded
“I cant even begin how to explain this” she looked to her father “BUT YOU WILL
explain this” she nodded “im disgusted” she looked at her “Mom please” she
looked at her father “dad” he was looking at the ground as her brother walked
in “BRETT GO TO YOUR ROOM!” he saw the baggy and walked up stairs. “mariana”
she sighed “don’t blame her” she looked at her “I would like you to leave
please this is a family matter” she nodded “I understand’ she sighed and walked
to the front door and outside. “Ill be calling your mother” she looked at
skylar as the front door shut. “I CANT BELIEVE YOU!” mariana grabbed her bag
off the porch and ran.
“SKYLAR!” she looked at her dad “please don’t yell at me” he
lauyghed “you don’t think im not ashamed
of myself” he looked away “EVERY MORNING!” her mother looked up “I look in the
mirror and wonder when ill be able to stop……….i swear to myself EVERYDAY that
it will be the last time I wont do it anymore!” she laughed tears streaming
down her face “I HATE MYSELF…………….I HATE! MYSELF!”she looked over at her mother
“you think I dont find my own self disgusting as you said!” she smiled “I do
mom……………..every time I look in the mirror and every time I use it………I think how
would my mother feel if she knew I was doing this………..how would my brother feel
how would my dad feel…………HOW WOULD I FEEL IF I COULD SEE MYSELF DOING THIS!”
her father reached out to touch her “DON’T!” she laughed “you know how many
times ive tried to stop and it failed?” she laughed “27 times over the last TWO
YEARS!” her mother gasped crying. “I cant stop……………..you know how many attempts
ive made………….suicide” her mother started crying more. “I CANT STOP!” she laughed
crying more “I……CANT STOP!” she screamed more “im a drug addict” she laughed “and
I NEEEEED help!” she fell onto the couch and covered her face. “I need help…………”
she cried more.
She felt a hand on her shoulder and looked up seeing her brother
sitting beside her crying and putting his arms around her. Her mother turned to
her “you wont be getting any of my help……..i don’t know who you are anymore”
she walked from the room and her father just sat down in the chair across from
them. Finally he looked up “maybe um” he sighed “I cant do this you should…….go
stay with grandma for a while” she laughed “thanks dad” she got up and walked
up the stairs and slammed her door.
