No One's POV
Brian walked through the door of Blackhawk Middle School in Fort Wayne, Indiana. He wondered how he was going to raise this girl, his sister. She is 14 and in 8th grade. Her name is Kaliah. She has been in juvi a few times before. From what he heard she was gonna be hell to raise. He didn't really know anything about her. She was his half-sister and they hadn't met before. She knew he was coming, but she didn't know what to expect. All she knew was he was an ex-cop who lived in LA.
Her mom and his dad where married. They got divorced like when he was 10. She moved to Indiana and got remarried to an abusive asshole. He wasn't that way at first. He didn't start acting like that until she was 9. He would get drunk and pissed. He would start to hit her and her mom. They threatened to tell about it, but he said if they did that he would kill them. He started to rape her when she was 12. Her mom took off a year ago, when she was 13. The beatings got worse. Her dad blamed her mom leaving on her. That's why she started drinking and doing drugs. She had gotten into a few fights and caught drunk and high, that's why she went to juvi. Every time she got out, he would beat her til she almost died, then he would clean her up and make her take a few days off school. Her father had just got locked up for drug trafficking. She had never told anyone about the abuse. She cut herself to feel instead of having to deal with it.
"Kaliah Peterson, please come to the office." The secretary said over the intercom. A few kids around her oooo'd. Everyone one in the school had heard about her dad's run-in with the law. They all knew about hers to. "Shut the hell up." She said with a scowl on her face. "That will be a detention" The teacher said. Oh well Kaliah thought to herself.
Kaliah's POV
I walked down the stairs and hallway to the office. When I got there I saw a blonde surfer looking guy. I hope that's not him I don't do preps, I thought. I walked up to the desk, "Yeah?"
"Ms. Peterson where are your manners? This is Brian O'Connor your brother." The secretary told me.
"Ok," I turned to Brian "Hey I'm Kaliah." I said not very enthusiastically or friendly. I don't trust a lot of people especially not ex-cops.
"Brian, let me sign you out and we can go get lunch and talk." He looked nervous. It couldn't possibly be the fact that he now has to raise a 14 year old pain in the ass now could it? I thought sarcastically to myself.
"OK thanks, can't wait to get out of this place." I told him.
"Don't you have to get your homework and stuff from your locker?"
"No I don't do homework."
" Well, go get it because you are doing it tonight."
"What the hell, you aren't my father, thank god for that, but still you can't tell me what to do!"
"I can I have custody of you now, and you will obey me, and watch your language you're a 14 year old girl you don't need to be talking like that." He said calmly, but I could tell he was getting pissed.
"Yes young lady, watch your language your are on school grounds that is a detention." The Vice Principal said.
"Whatever, I already have another one, let's go Brian"
We walked out to the car. I couldn't believe it, a Skyline R-34! It was amazing a custom paint job and everything. I wonder what's under the hood. He wouldn't have NOS though would he? I mean he's an ex-cop.
"Oh my god is that a skyline?!"
"Yeah, how'd you know that?"
"I love cars have for a long time ever since I saw the Fast and The Furious movies. Me and my friend Brooke are planning on moving to LA when we graduate."
"Well then you'll fit in with the team even though you are the youngest."
"The team? What's that?"
"It's a group of people I live with and work with. We all love cars. You'll get to meet them when we leave."
"Wait, leave I can't leave here all my friends are here what am I supposed to do in a place where I don't know anybody?" I can't move and leave Brooke here, she's my best friend even though I've only known here for a year.
"Well your going to have to because my job and everything is in LA, and I can't just quit my job and uproot my life to move here."
"You can't uproot your life but you can uproot my life how does that work?!!! I can take care of myself I have been for the past week. Just let me live here and when the parole officers come by I will just tell them that you had business to do and it couldn't wait."
"You have to come with me or you go into foster care and I don't think you want that." He was seriously getting pissed I wonder where he learned the whole I'm so pissed I'm calm thing at. I know it but that's me and I needed to know that in juvi.
"Fine, lets go get lunch." It was useless arguing anymore I would but I don't know how he is going to react and I don't want a repeat of my dad.
"Ok where is good around here?"
"You like Chinese? There is a Chinese place on Crescent street."
"How do you get there?"
"go down State and take a left by IPFW, and go down and take a right on Crescent its called Chung King Express."
