*2 days Later (Friday)*

"So when are you going back to school?"

"Tuesday"

"Lucky…"

"I know right" I laughed.

It was Friday night and as usual I had started off the day with my therapy session and was now with Michaela. We were currently at Falafel Phil casually chatting.

"You seem to be in a good mood for a girl who got suspended" Michaela looked at me suspiciously.

"Whatever do you mean?" I asked innocently.

"Oh nothing…nothing at all" Michaela stared at me vigilantly not breaking her stare.

"So I suppose you thought I wouldn't have found out….."

I returned Michaela's stare knowing full well what she was talking about still I tried to play it as I didn't hoping she would soon drop her case.

"Michaela….are you okay? You look a little tired"

"Uh…nuh nuh nooo, don't try to change the subject…" Michaela said. She seemed some what mental.

"So rumor has it that you had a little thing with Jack Anderson" "Is it true?" she questioned.

I didn't answer.

"Oh thanks for telling me" she said bitterly

"Michaela it's not that big of a deal"

Michaela rolled her eyes.

"I know! But it's the principle….we're supposed to be like this"

Michaela crossed her fingers symbolizing unity.

"You know how I am….I don't like to talk about stuff like that"

Michaela nodded.

"I guess….I mean we've just been BFLS since the middle of 9th grade….It hasn't even been a full year yet so I suppose I see why you with held this information"

That really wasn't the case. Honestly as much as I cared for Michaela and how close we had gotten I still couldn't ignore her reputation as the school gossip. She told me in the past that she can keep a secret and knowing her I didn't believe it, If she had told me about others what's to stop her from telling others about me.

I feel bad for thinking this way but these feelings of distrust are undeniable.

"Anyways what happended?"

"Well basically for the past two days I've being researching genetics and a bit of DNA mutation"

"Good for you but I'm talking about Jack"

I hesitated and after seconds of thinking I came to the decision that it wasn't a big deal due to the fact that nothing significant occurred.

"Wait how did you find out In the first place" Michaela looked at me wide eyed.

"I have sources"

"What?"

"Heather told me that Leila told her that Joan heard from Victoria that Kelsey saw you and Jack.

I found rumors to be pointless and more that often not true, because of this I tried to avoid people who were constantly involved with rumors but somehow I ended up with Michaela and before I knew it I was too close to her to let her go.

"Anyways do tell" Michaela smiled brightly obviously excited to hear something new.

"Well as I said it wasn't a big deal….I just saw Jack and we talked a bit….that was it…"

Michaela looked disappointed.

"That's not what I heard"

I looked at her quizzically. I was some what interested in hearing her story.

"What exactly did you hear….not that I care…but"

"Ok so…..You and Jack are walking to class when he tells you about his new girlfriend Shea…because you're so in love with him you become furious and start babbling even to the point of calling Shea a no good b*tch, when you attempt to leave Jack tries to stop you not wanting your friendship to be ruined you do some more yelling and in the heat of the moment he grabs you and kisses you pationatly, You slap him in the face and run off leaving Jack awed"

I tried to compute what I had just heard. Did people honestly believe this story?

I soon broke out in laughter.

"What's so funny?"

"Everything !"

"Jack isn't dating Shea, we didn't kiss and I didn't slap him" I continued as I laughed.

"Bummer….the rumor is way better…." Michaela then said.

"I guess it is…..and FYI I am not in love with Jack"

"Sure you aren't" Michaela grinned.

"I'm not!" I shouted.

"Everybody knows….don't deny it"

"Whatever….."

*Flashback*

"Are you sure someone's on the phone for me?" I questioned.

"Maybe you're looking for Kimberly Craig or Kimberly Smith" I continued.

The lady looked at me impatiently.

"Yes I am positive, Please answer the phone in the main area, the caller is on hold"

"Yeah….yeah sure….."

The lady started to walk out leaving me on my bed.

I remember that I was quite excited that day, wondering who it was or if it was just a simple mix up.

"Kimberly are you coming" The lady asked from my door way.

"Yes Ma'am"

"It's Miss Mitchell" She said flatly.

I followed her into the main area.

Approaching the phone I felt nervous. To ease this I started to breathe slowly but as expected that didn't help. I slowly picked up the phone.

"Hello….."

"Kimberly?"

"Mommy?"

Realizing it was my mother a rush of emotions occurred inside.

" Is this really you?"

"Yes honey it's me" My mother said.

"Mommy, I miss you so much"

"I miss you too sweety"

It's hard to think that me and my mother were ever close, at one point we were but after that day my feelings for her changed.

Even though I was happy I had a terrible feeling that there was something wrong. I mean why else would she call?

"Is there something wrong?" I questioned.

"I mean….I haven't heard from or seen you since the day I was brought here….."

"Why call now?" I continued.

My mother gave no answer much to my disappointment, I couldn't say I was surprised.

"I'm sorry I haven't called Kimberly it's just that my work scheduale is hectic, Khloe's gone mental and your father and I have been having problems"

I continued to listen to my mother's excuses.

I sighed then rolled my eyes.

"Sure mom" I said.

"So Kimberly anything new with you….hobbies…..art….something?" My mother asked.

From the sound of her voice I could tell she wasn't truly interested in what I had to say.

"Mom…I'm in Juvi….." I said flatly.

Our conversation had gone from excited to forced.

"Oh yeah that's right…"

I furred my brows. To how my mother was acting it seemed like she felt I was on some extended vacation.

Soon she stopped talking and her attention was now focused on someone else I n the room she was. I tried not to think about it.

"Khloe go do your homework" My mother shouted

"Not in the mood mother" I heard Khloe's low voice in the background.

My mother couldn't even have a conversation with me on the phone without interruptions.

"Oh sorry Kimberly that was your sister….you know how she is" My mom said casually.

"Yeah I do know how she is…." I said irritated.

"Everybody knows how Khloe is" I continued

"Kimberly don't start this again" My mother pleaded.

"Believe me I wont…..I'm the bad one….I'm the crazy chick who burned down Alex Cooper's house and Khloe is the little angel who told the cops about me"

At this point I knew that my mother was aware of my recent change in feelings for Khloe…hate, disgust, anger….the list goes on.

"You know I can't believe I missed you…people like you never change" I said bitterly.

"Kimberly listen….."

"No mom you listen! I'm tired of being 2nd….I'm tired of you pretending that you care about me when I know you don't and dad isn't too fond of me either"

"Kimberly" My mom restarted.

"Mother" I interrupted

"I'm innocent!" I yelled.

My mother became silent.

"Kimberly what do you want me to do?" My mother asked angrily.

"Believe me…."

"Kimberly you have to understand the situation I'm in, I can't just pick one of my daughters"

"You don't know how hard this has been on me" She continued to say.

That was the moment that I had lost all interest in my mom. For years I had distant feelings that she didn't care but deep down I prayed they weren't true but it was on that day that I finally realized how selfish she was.

"Hard on you"

"Hard on you" I continuously rambled.

"You know what Mother, I don't need you! You go live your life with your perfect husband and your perfect daughter in your perfect home….."

"Kimberly…"

"You are nothing but a conceited, narcissistic, selfish train wreck"

"I wish you weren't my mother" I continued to say.

"You don't mean that" She then said.

"Oh I do…..I hate you mother! I'll never forgive you for treating me this way"

I meant every word I said. I felt no guilt for telling her how I felt. She deserved it.

"Kimberly…."

"Good bye mother"

*End Flashback*

"Why does everyone assume I have a thing for Jack?"
"Have you seen Jack…." Michaela said dreamily.

"He is a 10…..why wouldn't you like him" Michaela continued.

I rolled my eyes. Of course I thought Jack was good looking but I really didn't just like him for his looks he was genuinely a good person.

"Wait you like Jack too? Aren't you into Ivan?" I questioned.

"No I just think he's good looking... and FYI Ivan is so last week…"

I expected the breakup as I say time and time again Michaela simply can't keep a boyfriend.

"What happened?"

"Well turns out Grace was right I really was Ivan's rebound…I caught him making out with her in study hall"

"Are you okay"

"I'm over it Ivan is a douche and Grace is the queen of Ho bags….well 2nd to Donna Tobin"

I nodded.

"You were right I shouldn't have gone out with him…..he wasn't even that into me he just thought I was hot and it would be easy to get Grace back if she was jealous"

"I'm sorry" I then said.

"It's cool I have other options….." Michaela said smiling.

"Any one specific?"

"Not yet"

"You'r so boy crazed" I said laughing.

"Not really my health teacher says it's perfectly normal to be harmonal..."

"Eww" I said I continued to laugh.

Michaela elbowed me.

"I didn't mean it like that" she then said.

"Whatever...I got to go" I zipped up my sweater and stood up.

"To see your husband "

I rolled my eyes but secretly smiled.

"Ha ha very funny...I'll see you at school tuesday"

"Get home safe"

"I will!"

With that I left.
