This little "story" has been bothering me for a while. Soooo I decided to type it up and see what you all think! Of course I still don't have a beta so all mistakes are mine! Love you all bunches... enjoy! (Remember: Love me... I'm delicate.)
My Sister's Keeper:
Chad:
I let myself into the house, that I shared with my best friend Troy and baby sister Taylor, tired and worn out. I had a day full of classes and a basketball game to coach. Hard work wasn't something that was new to me. I'd been working hard all of my life. I didn't have a choice. My dad died when we were younger and our mother died right along with him. Or so you could say... She took to drugs because she wasn't able to cope with the grief and in the process lost us to the system. Being older than Tay I promised her the day that I aged out of the system that I would be back for her, that when she became legal that I would be there to bring her home.
Those years I went to school, worked, and tutored saving up every check, dollar, and penny to keep my promise. And I did, when she walked crossed the stage to get her high school diploma I was there cheering her on and ready to take her home to the three bedroom home that I was sharing with Troy. Meeting Troy was a blessing for me. We'd instantly became friends and he understood my situation without pitying me. His parents were supportive and were actually the ones that came up with the idea of me and Troy sharing an apartment so that I wouldn't have to carry the load of caring for Taylor alone. I wouldn't dream of being such a burden, but they wouldn't hear of it, and I was eternally grateful because it helped me in keeping my promise to Tay Tay. After all I was my sister's keeper...
With a shake of my head I brought myself out of the past and to the present. The house was quiet so I went to Taylor's room to see if she'd made it in from classes. As I got closer I started to hear moans... I cringed at the thought of my sister having sex, and as I was getting ready to walk away I heard the unmistakable sound of my best friend's voice... coming from my sister's room.
My blood started to boil and temper started to rage. Kicking in my sister's door I was greeted by the sight of my best friend on and in my sister. The need for blood was great. Rushing over to the bed I knocked Troy off and over the bed with a tackle. Pulling back I landed blow after blow. I could feel Taylor trying to pull me off of Troy but I kept on. I didn't care about her screams or the fact that blood was pouring out from his nose. The son of a bitch deserved it...
"Chad please! STOP!"
Taking a deep breath I stepped away from Troy and stood up shaking my head trying to rid myself of the image...
"Chad..." Troy managed to croak.
"SHUT UP... Shut the fuck up! She's the only thing I have left in this world and I asked you not to go there. I told you she was off-limits, but I guess it didn't matter... I guess... I gotta get out of here... I got to go..."
I started to walk out of the room. Taylor reached out for me and I jerked out of her reach.
"Chad?"
Shaking my head ... I left without another word.
