We remember like yesterday. We came in mom was grouching as normal. Then dad come in and the fight was on. "alton!" "What is it?" "why are you dirty?" Dad was fithly from head to toe. "i had to wrestle this criminal." "you didnt call!" "yes I did you didnt anwser."
And from that moment the fight was on. We was doing our homework for the summer. Then at dinner they were still at it at the dinner table. they stopped long enough to say grace. then she started again. Dad looked at us we were used to it by now and he knew it and hated it. Then he started. Jess and i just got up cleaned our plates and went to our room . At bed time they were still fighting we herd more of mom than dad.
"what is she goin on about!" Jess heading to our door. "Jess!" "What!" "I dont think dad will like us getting involved in this.." "Jen she yelling at him like he did something." "i know I hate it only dad dont want us to know about it." "Thats going easy..." Then dad cameing. "dont think about it Jess." he said leading her to the bed. "but daddy!" She protested.
"jessy baby I got this alright?" "But why are you and Mom fight for dad?" I asked. "sweety its adult thing dont worry about it ok?" "ok daddy." he tucked us in a walked our cutting off the light as he walked out. our night light came on and we both went to sleep.
Next thing we were awoke by a car outside of our house and yelling by our mom. We ran down stairs to see what happen. All we seen was our dad standing in the door way with a note and our mom driving away in a taxi. "Dad?" I asked. He looked down at the floor and said sadly "Shes-Your mother is...Shes left." "What do you mean dad...if she just left why are you so upset?" asked Jess. "Jess hunny...shes not comeing back."
"What do you mean dad?" I asked. "Jen she not comeing back shes left us here just like that! Jess snapped. She ran up into our room and i just looked at dad. "w-_w why did she dad.." He didnt say anything. I ran up after jess. "Jenny now what do we do?" "what do you mean jessie?" "our friends arnt gonna understand." "I dunna think if they dont there not our true friends...or atleast thats what daddy told me. a while back ." We sat in silence fofr a while then dad entered. He tried to smile but couldnt."girls it is going to be alright." Dad always used proper engilish.
Our grandfather zander arrow jr was owner of aero clothes. It was a huge company but our mom`s family was poor as all get out. Thats why still today our grandparents had nohting to do with us or our dad. They disowned him after he went and married our mother. They didnt think it was proper for a rich young man to marry and common girl. They had never met us and probably never will... its wasnt our grandma as much as grandpa. I had been told by many he was a jerk. But still... "Jen." Jess interupted my thoughts. "yea?" "we need jobs." "what?" "yea you herd me. jobs." "why do you want a job now?" I said that because it wasnt to long ago i tried this conversation with Jess and it didnt get me anywhere.
"Well were 17 and i mean collage is right around the corner." "ok...where do you have in mind jess?" "i dunno but when i find something ill let you know." *sigh* "alright jess" Ireached over and turned off the light.
I woke up to the sound of the phone in our room ringing. I looked at the clock and seen it was 9 am. "Saturday..." i mumered to my self. i knew it was probably Alli and/or alice or Amleia. she left every saturday with Doppler and the kids. sometime we were in tow. But I geuss she decided to let us sleep today. I picked up the phone..
" Hello?" "Jenna?" yep it was alli and Alice. "Its just jen." I never went by jenna. "what ever Jenna is Jessa up?" I looked over she wasnt awake she was laying in bed side ways her feet over on my side." no shes not why?" "well get her up and met us at the Benbow inn." "why?" "Just come." "Wait tha benbow?" "Yea!" then they hung up.
The benbow was on poor part of montresser we had been there but I was shocked there dad was letting them go. They also lived with a single father whos wife had died with yellow fever when they were just babies. "Jess. get up I said writing a note to tell where we were. she just mumbled at me. "Jess!" i said only this time I threw a pillow hitting her in the head and almost knocking her off.
"what jen you dont have to yell." I rolled my eyes " get up were met in Alli and Alice at the Benbow." "Alli and Alice ,Benbow?you mean tha one across town?" "Yep that the one. " We got up and put on our dresses which is what every girl one on our was a burnt orange/red looking and long with quarter length sleeves and a cream colored tie on belt . Jess`s was long also quarter length but hers was a blue/gray color with a purple sash tie around. We were pretty ihad to admit.
when we left for the benbow Charity was there. No surprise there. She was dressed in her normal white and dark green dress but hers was long sleeved.
Alli and alice were dressed in blue ones just alike. We all were kids of rich parents. Well rich grandparents in our case. charity lived with her mom only her dad went off to war and was killed. she had long red/orange hair that was curly and ice blue eyes. Alli and alice were perfectly identical they both had wavy blonde hair and green eyes. From behind us came up Matthew.
He had black hair (natural) and gray eyes, he was dressed in a brown button down shirt and his army green pants. He lived with his dad. His mom pasted away after a boating accident. That was our friends. "ok i bite why are we here?" asked looked over at her sister whom was doing the same. No reason, we just wanted to se what this side of town was like." anwsered Alli. "so im geussing your dad doesnt know you here?" Jess said looking over at me. I looked back at her..
"Well no... geuss not." "you geuss ? I said with a hint question. "I mean hes kinda busy and we are just wondering what this place is like.." "I dont think your dad would like this..." Said Charity. "well there dad let them come here." Ugh dont drag our dad into this hes not even like your dad!" I said. "Well true but... were already here." "Where does yuor dad think you are? "asked matthew "teaching some needy kids..." "wow i cant beleive YOU lied to your dad..."Jess said. "Oh its not a lie we did tech some needy kids." "oh course you did."
"what do you mean?" "she dont mean anything..." Matthew jumped in. "are they dateing?" Jess asked me. "I dunno." I anwsered. "Well lets go in.." Alice said smileing. But the two of them always was smileing. We walked in and its was a qutie place but we had been here when was really little with our mother.
It looked and smelled the same as it did then. I wondered if anyone here would know us. one the other side of town we were like celeberties. Everyone knew the Arrow twins.
But where we lived everyone knew everyone so that didnt much matter. "this place is wierd.." Said alli. They were 16 but were in all the honors classes and in all our grades things. "How so?" I asked. "wheres the waiter?" "umm i dont think thats what they do around here deary" "Well what do they do?" "I think you just sit.." Said jess. Her and i laughed. "whats funny?" "Oh nothing.." I said.
"Ummmm its ummmm."Jess started. "Inside joke?" Alli asked. "Yeah thats it." I said winking at Jess. we sat down and began to talk. "This is nice!" said Charity. "what?" Asked Matt. "we all dont ever hang out any more other than school." "Yea.." I said. "I mean we all used to be at one anothers houses when we was kids."
"That was before my dad and i moved here huh?" asked matthew. "yea sadly life just got more complicatied. " Jess said. Just then someone tapped both uf us on the sholder. we turned to look,and it was Jim! "whatda doing here? " "oh were with friends..." said jess. "oh i see... them?" he said pointing to Alli and alice who was try to figure out where to put the napkin. "All of them." i said. "what you doing here?" asked Jess. "My mom owns this place remember. "oh yea sorry." "thats ok." he laughed "wheres jake?" I asked.
"uh hes in the back today." "Oh alright." "yea hey would you guys come meet my mom?"
"huh?" "she wants to meet you guys... long story." oh ok." jess laughed. "umm Jenna, jessa?"said alli or alice i didnt see. "this is our friend Jim. he goes to our school." i explained. "and we will be right back." said jess. We got up and walk with him. "now may just add my moms a little...ummm." "embarresing?" jess asked. "um yea."
" dont worry remember we have a dad and were girls." "...right."
we walked into a room that had kitchen wrote above the door. There was only pne woman working. "okay we need two more powdered sphere-riodes and a black mocon." she was shouting.
"Mom..." She kept on working. "Mom!" "Jim? what is it?" "this is Jennifer and Jessica Arrow."
"Oh that ones who live with dilbert and his wife?" "Yes mom." "Hello." I said out streaching my hand to her. she shook my hand and said.
"Hi my name is Sarah Hawkins."
"Im Jennifer Arrow and this is my sister Jessica. " "I have herd alot about you two especally you Jessica."
"Please ma'am call me jess." She sounded very military at that moment. "and you Jennifer Jake speaks of quite abit.." I probably looked retarded but all I said was.."Please call me Jenn." "alright. Jess and Jenn."
"Yes." she looked like a woman version of was dressed in and all brown dress and white apron. with a white hat.
"Well if you`ll excuse me i need to get back to work it was nice meeting you two." "You two mam...a pleasure meeting you." i said. when it came to random people I talked more but some we knew it was Jess. Or some one we was really close to it was both of us. Dad would have to stop us sometime because we would over lap each other. He laughed when we said things simoutainiously. "thanks you guys." Jim said for the fourth time after meeting his mom.
"wow hes cute. Said Alice. "Yea..." said Jess thoughtful and we went back to our dinner..
