Just a quick one shot after Kate finds out Carla's her sister. It's not very good but I felt like doing something different. Please feel free to review and tell me what I can do to improve :)
Sister? No way. She can't be! I can't believe it's true... but it has to be! Why else would she be saying it? And why is my dad...I mean our dad looking so guilty? Am I hurt? Yes! Am I angry? I'm not sure! Not really! Well at least I wasn't angry until he told us about Mum. Actually correction Liz told us about Mum. He killed her...in one way or another he killed her.
I can't believe this is actually happening. Our dad killed our Mum? I can't stop the tears from escaping my eyes. Aidan is angry at our dad and I can't blame him. He knew Mum better than I did and they were close from what I hear.
I always wanted a big sister...but not like this. No never! I can't begin to imagine what Carla went through as a child. She could've grown up with me and Aidan and our dad...but instead she grew up in an awful estate with her drug dealing and alcoholic mum.
It's a bit awkward and strange. Really strange. It's just me, Aidan, Carla and dad now. The others all left to give us privacy. It's strange because we're family...we're all related by blood. We have a new sister but she's older than us? I'm still trying to get used to this, to the fact that Carla's now part of our immediate family.
They're saying stuff but I can't hear. My body feels numb, apart from my hands which are being held by Carla. My sister. Our dad said something about love. The funny this is; I feel anything but loved right now.
Pain. Anger. Hurt. Guilt. Confused. Tired. Shocked. They're just the few emotions I'm feeling right now and loved certainly isn't one!
"Yeah she's my sister!" It just slipped out! I didn't know if I should've said anything but word would of got around anyway. They're all staring at me and Carla like we're freaks. They all looked shocked and I can't blame them. I bet they're all talking about us right now!
It's just me and her. Me and my sister on her couch. We have a mug of coffee in our hands to warm us up...but I still feel cold. We're talking like we've never met before. She's awkwardly offering a bed so I don't have to go back and face our dad. I'm awkwardly accepting the offer. We're smiling at each other...and it's so awkward.
I'm drowning my sorrows in my sisters wine. It's 1 in the morning and I can't sleep. I hope she doesn't mind too much as this is my second bottle...and it looks quite expensive. I'm suddenly blinded by tears that have crept up on me. The tears of sadness and hurt are quickly replaced with tears of anger.
'CRASH' I hope they don't like that glass too much as it's now smashed. Oh shit! It's left a mark but I'm too angry to care. I can hear them but it feels like they're in another world. I can't stop smashing up things and it's not even my house.
Suddenly my arms are being stopped and my eyes lock with my sisters. I was expecting anger, annoyance but all I saw is her worried green eyes looking into my angry chocolate ones. But the anger is now replaced by sadness and tears start flowing.
"I-I-I'm-m s-sor-r-y." That's all I could say as Carla's leading me over to the couch. She says nothing, just tucks a piece of hair behind my ear and before I know it she's pulling me close. "Shh it's ok. I love you." Are the only words I can hear coming from her mouth as I fall asleep.
