So sorry for wait my computer has been acting up so I haven't been able to update lately. But as everyone knows I don't own RENT

Rebecca's POV

I hear my sister crying and I feel kind of sorry for her. I am still really mad at her but it must suck not seeing your parents for a long time just to find out you'll never be able to see them again. I want so much to go and hug her and have a "sister conversation" with her. How can we do that if I can't stand being in the same room with her? "Bumble bee?" My sister calls using the nickname she gave me when I was younger "can I come in we need to talk." Sure I reply unlocking my door

Maureen's POV

I go into the room and see my sister has already unpacked. "Can I sit down I ask her." Free country she replies. "Look I know you're upset with me not being there but we live together now so you're going to have to talk to me eventually."

Normal POV

For a long time both sisters sit next to each other not saying a word. "I'm sorry." Maureen whispers after a while "I should have been there for you even if I wasn't on the best terms with our parents."

"You hurt me a lot Maureen. I looked up to you and you just graduated high school than disappeared without any contact. You think because I was young I wouldn't remember? Our mom cried every night because of you; daddy was so mad at you for hurting her and me. Thanks to what you did I had to be the one all of there hopes and dreams went into. You're here having fun with your friends living with your girlfriend and you don't even want me here." The 12 year old finishes crying

"What makes you think I don't want you here?" The diva asks with a concerned look on her face



"You had your perfect life and left me with the burden of being the perfect child. Now that I'm here you can't runaway from everything like you do all the time. I'm the constant reminder our parents are dead and you never even came for holidays. You never got to say good-bye ….I NEVER GOT TO SAY GOOD-BYE!!" Rebecca yells throwing her pillow at the door

"It's not fair Maureen" The preteen confides hugging her sister

"I know sweetie" the diva says hugging her younger sister "I know"

W/ JOANNE HER POV

While Maureen is talking to her sister I try to get some work done. As I'm finishing up some paper work the phone rings

"Hello?'' I question

"Hello can I speak to Maureen please?" The voice on the other end asks

"She can't come to the phone right now" I answer not wanting to interrupt Maureen's time with her sister "can I take a message?''

"Can you please tell her this is her Aunt Emily and I'm calling with the funeral arrangements for her parents and to call me at 512-638-2470 don't forget it is very important….goodbye''

"Okay………I say taking the number down………..bye''

Rebecca's POV

I feel better now that I talked to my sister. I 'm not 100 trusting of her yet but I feel better being here, even though I miss my parents I guess I can stay here; just until I go to college. "Hey Maureen maybe I could meet the rest of your friends again. I didn't really make a good impression the first time."



"I'm sure they understand" Maureen answers

"Maybe you could tell me more about them" I suggest

"Okay "she responses cuddling up to me and stroking my hair the way my mom use to do

Joanne's POV

I knock on Rebecca's door and open it a little I see Maureen and Rebecca cuddled up asleep together

I'll tell her tomorrow and with that I close the door and heads to Maureen and my room

That's all for now. Again I'm soooooooo sorry about the amount of time it takes me to update

If you have any suggestions for me please include them as long as it's constructive and not for me to update faster because I have serious writers block
