Chapter 2: Anger

Haley sat in a chair next to her tea party table, holding one of her dolls. Right now her dollies couldn't amuse her; all she could do is hold them in her hand, as she stared out her door.

Eventually, it was 9:00, no sign of Jake yet. She was getting impatient waiting for her big brother to show. For all she knew, he could be in trouble and need of help. But those kind of thoughts didn't go through the nine year old's mind; her anger just kept telling her that Jake ditched her, and that he never explained his reasons why.

Finally 9:30, a glow of blue light flashed into Jake's room. Haley knew that her brother was in there, and that they needed to talk.

Jake held on to the railing of the window, as his sister entered into the room. He gave out a little smirk, but it was soon wiped off as Haley charged right at him. "Where were you!!?" She yelled.

"Chill Haley, I had some…Amdrag business." Jake walked away from the window over by his head.

"You have Amdrag business from 2 in the afternoon to 9 o' clock at night?" Yeah, that was a load of…poop.

Jake crossed his arms; he didn't know where she was going on this. "Okay so I went to the movies with Trixie and Spud after, what's the big deal!?"

"Why didn't you tell me!!?" She yelled.

Finally, the message was clear to him, he forgot about the dragon practice he promised to do. But now that they were arguing, he couldn't just flat out say sorry. "Not my fault mom and dad didn't give you a cell phone."

Haley was furious now! That was not what she wanted to hear as an answer. "You could have swung by anytime and told me, instead of making me wait TWO HOURS in the pouring rain waiting for you!!!" She screamed at him.

Jake chuckled a bit. "You waited two hours in the rain?" How dumb could her little sister get?

She could feel the blood through her veins boiling even higher. "You know, you should be lucky. I covered for you for mom and dad twice!"

"No one told you to do that…" Jake defended himself.

"I thought I could do something nice for my brother! But I guess you can't do the same for me!" She stomped off, angry as hell.

She continued to stomp her feet through the hallway, and back into her room. She grabbed one of her dolls, and started to strangle it, trying to relieve the anger. But hurting her dolls wasn't going to get her anywhere. She gently put down her doll, and hopped onto her bed. She figured to settle down the steam, she should go to bed early tonight.

"One day he's going to need my help," She whispered to herself. "And when he needs it, I will forget about him just as he does to me." Eventually her eyes started to get heavy, and she found herself totally exhausted. "He'll see." She spoke her last words, and drifted off into slumber.


Seems like things are heating up between Jake and Haley. Let's hope, that tomorrow, things turn out... better. xDDDD
