I stayed at Nate's for the night. I let to let off some steam, so I ran and listened to my angry music.
And regardless of what Casey said, I'm still waiting her drown in court. I'm outside the courtroom as we speak...
Danielle didn't expect Casey to come home at around eleven at night. She turned around and saw her sister in tears.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Why do you care?"
"I care because my sister is home crying" Danielle replied "What's going on, Case?"
"I'm being brought against the BAR because of the case."
"Oh well, you get what you deserve..."
"Shut up Danielle!" Casey yelled as she continued crying "You were right, okay? I shouldn't have done what I did. You were looking out for me, and I didn't care."
"Because you wanted to win the case so badly..."
"Because that's what I do" Casey snapped "I rarely lose a case."
Casey threw her work bag at the kitchen wall.
"Guess I won't need my work bag anymore."Casey said quietly as she walked over to Danielle.
"When are you going in front of the BAR?"
"May 22nd" Casey said.
"Did someone say what the possible consequences are?" Danielle asked.
"Censure, possible suspension of a year or more..."
"Hmm...I'm not sure I know what Censure means..."Danielle said.
"They pretty much criticize me for my actions in court..."
"Like I have for the past 3 days?"
"I love how you think this is funny" Casey snapped "Tell me, Ms. I know everything, how the hell are we going to pay for this apartment if I'm suspended? It's 550 a month..."
"I do have a job, you know" Danielle said.
"Yeah, but you don't even make that much in a month."
"Well at least I'll have a job..."
"One more comment like that, and I'm throwing you out! Casey screamed as she took off her shoes and threw them at Danielle. One of them hit Danielle in the arm, and the other one just barely missed her head. Casey marched to her room and slammed the bedroom door behind her.

Let me mention how horrible the past week has been...
First of all, I guess Casey refuses to work (since she can until her hearing) and all she does is mope around the house. What the hell? At least if I was getting suspension, I'd work until I had to.
I also found out that Casey hasn't been taking her medication for the past two weeks. I have a feeling that: she thought she was cured and stopped taking her medication. But everyone knows that people with this mental illness need to take their meds! I believe that people with depression can slowly get better without medication, but I did my research: people with bipolar disorder are stuck with their illness for the rest of their life. Casey should have known that before she was ill;she prosecuted a sixteen year old who killed a young girl because she wasn't taking her meds for her bipolar disorder(I went to part of the trial since I was living with Casey at the time)!
Casey without her medication is not a good site to see, especially when she's in a manic state. On Wednesday, she decided to start a fight about "Danielle not replacing the shampoo in the shower". It turned into a full blown fight, and I had to defend myself until the police decided to knock on the door. I opened the door and saw that my face was covered with cuts. They were about to arrest Casey, but I told them that she had bipolar disorder, and that I was trying to take her to Bellview. So the police left, and I did try to bring Casey there, but she only screamed "Screw you!" and locked herself in her room.
Does this sound familiar to anyone? It's the Charlie and Casey story again, except I'm Casey and my sister is Charlie.
I honestly wish this would end…
"Are you going to your sister's hearing?"
Nate and Danielle was sitting on the couch. Danielle ran out of her apartment because the fighting started up again. Tomorrow was Casey's hearing; Danielle knew that the right thing to do was to support her sister. Except she didn't care, and Casey already told her not to bother going because "obviously Danielle doesn't give a shit."
"No."
"Why?"
"Nate, why the hell do you think I've been coming here almost every night?" Danielle snapped "She's driving me insane, and I'm not even the insane one!"
"And I think she's hurting you more than you think..."
"What do you mean?" Danielle asked.
"Look at you!" Nate shouted "Look at all of the cuts and bruises on your face! Look at yourself, Danielle! You look like someone wants to kill you!
"At least I'm defending myself" Danielle said in an angry tone.
"And yet you still look like you're being abused by your older sister" Nate said "Casey needs to go to a mental hospital or needs to be forced to take her meds! You know that!"
"Do you really think that's going to matter? She doesn't even care!"
"Jesus, now I think you're acting like your sister. You don't care about anything!"
"I do care!" Danielle yelled as she grabbed her backpack "You try being in the same situation! Until then, I don't want to talk to you!"
