Chapter One: Eyes and Lies

Trina Vega was sitting all alone, in her living room, rereading The Hunger Games. She had gotten home from school a while ago, and was pleased to have some downtime. where she could just be herself. Just as she got to the good part, the door burst open. The sudden sound surprised Trina, knocking her off the couch.

"Hey Tori, is your sister here?" Cat asked sweetly.

"Why would you even ask that, Cat?" Jade said. "You know she's irritating." Trina rolled her eyes from beneath the couch. Even though she knew she should have stood up and defend herself, she couldn't help but stay down to eavesdrop on their conversation.

"My sister is not that irritating!" Tori exclaimed.

"So you admit it," Jade said. "You admit that your sister is irritating."

"Are we going to waste time talking about my sister or are we going to set up the poker game before the guys get here?" Tori asked. Trina was fuming.

"Oh, so that's what you think?" Trina stood up. The three girls turned around, mouths open in shock.

"Trina, I'm sorry," Tori apologized meekly.

"Save it!" Trina yelled, throwing down her book. "We're family! I've kept your secrets, been a sister to you all these years, and this is how your repay me?"

"What's to pay for?" Tori screamed. "You're arrogant, and lazy, and UNTALENTED!"

"You know why I did that," Trina yelled. "We went to sister counseling together!"

"Sister counseling?" Jade snickered.

"SHUT UP JADE!" Trina and Tori said in unison. Jade shrugged.

"Please don't fight," Cat said. "You're sisters. I know you don't mean that, like my brother doesnt mean it when he hits me at night because he's sleepwalking."

"I'll leave," Trina said with tears shining in her eyes and her voice cracking. "Just play your stupid game."


Trina slammed the door of the bedroom and jumped onto the bed, crying. Even though her soft green pillows and cozy blue comforters had made her feel better before, the did not comfort her now. After what seemed like an hour's worth of tears, Trina dried her eyes and got off the bed. She rushed to the bathroom across the hall and took off her layers of makeup. Then, she reached for her mascra wand, but she stopped.

If they don't like me with makeup, then why bother putting it on? she thought. Trina left the bathroom, her face clear during the day for the first time in years. Then, she had a revelation.They never liked me at all! All those insults weren't playful, just insults. Trina thought. Then, she gave herself a challenge. If they don't like me, I'm not going to try to make them like me. Not makeup, no fake proudness to make myself seem confident. Not even to boost my self-esteem.

Then, she went downstairs to get some food. Tori's friends were all there, playing poker. They didn't notice her come downstairs. As she tiptoed to the fridge, Beck saw her. He motioned to his friends that Trina was there. Then, Trina had a revelation.

"Hey Vega," Jade said mock-sweetly Tori elbowed Jade. She elbowed Tori harder.

"Trina, look I'm sorry," Tori said. Trina could see the honesty in Tori's voice.

"I forgive you," Trina said curtly. "Then's she opened the fridge, grabbed a water bottle and left.


Everyone was shocked. Trina was looking and acting different from the arrogant Vega they knew.

Jade began to think that Trina might be the less disgusting Vega sister, then disgusted herself with that thought.

Beck and Andre were surprised that Trina was acting normal.

Robbie thought Trina seemed less materialistic.

Tori thought Trina seemed like a sister Tori would actually enjoy spending time around.
