Her mum's diaries
Chapter 1
Betty's POV
"Can you believe it V, I have a brother?" I looked at Veronica and she said
"Out of everything that has happened since the summer in this town, this is something I can believe." I rolled my eyes at her and walked to the Blue and Gold office where I saw Jughead. I sat down at my desk and sighed heavily, I leaned my head on the table and closed my eyes and I then felt something or someone touch my arm. I opened my eyes and lifted my head where I saw Jughead. He looked at me concerned and said
"Everything okay Betts?" I stood up from my desk and said
"My mum kept Polly away from me, she even hid that I have a brother somewhere, she keeps comparing me to Polly, she keeps crying herself to sleep, Jason is still dead, my sister is still not in my life anymore and we haven't had any clues as to who killed Jason." Jughead then wrapped me in his arms and said
"It is going to be okay Betts, we will get through this together." I leaned into him and said
"I know." As I hugged him back, the bell rang signalling the end of the day. We pulled apart and walked to get our things to go home. As I walked inside after Jughead walked me home. As I started my homework, started the paper, and also went back to investigating the Jason Blossom murder, I kept becoming distracted with the thought of my brother. As I was distracted I didn't hear my mum walk in until she said
"Betty." I faced her and said
"What's up mum?" She placed a cup on the counter and said
"How was school?" I got up from my chair and said
"It was fine." Mum then closed the fridge and started to walk away. Just as she was about to leave the kitchen I said
"Hey mum." She turned and said
"Yes Betty." I took a deep breath and said
"I was wondering, maybe I could go see the brother I have never met." She looked at me and said
"Why so you can get him to run away?" I shook my head no and said
"It's not like that mum." She took a step towards me and said
"Betty, stay out of this one okay, I don't mind the Jason Blossom murder case, but please stay out of this one." When she walked away, I sat back down and worked on the school paper. I uploaded the paper and started my search for my brother, as I searched my mum's maiden last name I heard a car engine go on and drive away. I walked to my window and saw that my parents had gone. I walked out of my room and to my parent's bedroom and searched everywhere for clues to my brother. I was about to give up when I couldn't find anything until I saw my mum's closet. I pulled out my bobby pin and picked the lock. I opened the door and looked around and that's when I saw it. I saw a box. I lifted the lid and saw many books. I put the lid back on the box and picked it up and carried it out the closet, just as I closed the door, I heard my phone. I check the caller ID and saw that it was my mum and I answered my phone and I said
"Hey mum." As I said that she then said
"Hey Betty, I forgot to tell you that your father and I are going to visit your grandparents, we will be back in the morning." As she said she hung up. I looked at the box, and then realised that I didn't lock the closet door. I locked the door, picked up the box and walked up to my room where I opened the box again and saw the books. I picked up one, dusted it off and read
Ali's Diary
I stared at the name and wondered who Ali was, and then I thought back to one conversation that I eavesdropped on with Jughead's dad
Flashback
"FP, what are you doing here in this neighbourhood?"
"It just so happens Ali, that my son is in this neighbourhood dating your daughter."
End Flashback
I widened my eyes and realised
If my mum is Ali, then it means: I looked at the box full of books and I dusted off the dust and they each said
Ali's Diary
Except one, it read
Alice's Diary
I dropped it and I realised
I found my mum's diaries.
