"I hope you choke on all the lies you told me."
~ Tawni ~
"Hey Mum, Dad." I smiled at them as I walked through the door, they were sitting down at the dining table. Mum looked like she had been crying, but she turned away when I walked in. "Whats going on?" I said as I walked further in,
"We need to speak to you."I sighed and then walked back into the dining area and sat down,
"What?" I muttered as I looked at my Mum. She still had her back turned to me, she was trying to hide the tears falling down her face, but I could tell by her shaking body that she was crying. I looked away from her, and at the window instead.
"We were told something today." My Dad said, I rolled my eyes,
"Can we get to the point already?" I was irritated by all this, I wanted to go upstairs and purge before the calories stayed inside me from before.
"Do you have an eating disorder?" Mum asked me as she finally stopped crying and turned back to me, I shook my head, trying to hide my shock at the sudden question.
"Do you make yourself throw up Tawni?" She cried, I shook my head,
"No! Who told you that." Sonny got out of hospital today, maybe she told them, I shook my head at the thought.
"Who?"
Mum just tutted "Does it matter who? What matters is if it's true or not?"
"No of course it is not true." I shouted as I stood up. I was going to kill Sonny if this was all her doing, I was not going to get caught right now. I was not going to let all my control break.
"I wouldn't Mum." I whispered,
"I tried it once.. When Sonny was around... She showed me how..." I said, wanting to turn my Mum against Sonny so she wouldn't believe anything she ever said again. She stared at my in disbelief and shook her head,
"She showed you how?" She looked at my Dad and I saw the anger in his eyes, I nodded and then looked down at the table, I didn't want her to figure out I was lying.
"I didn't like it.. I tried it and I couldn't do it and when something came up I felt horrible afterwards.. It didn't feel right." I shrugged,
"I have never tried it since." Mum closed her eyes,
"If Sonny told you this, you can't believe her Mum. When I went to see her, we had an argument. I told her she had to get better or I couldn't do this anymore. This is her way of getting back to me." I rushed out the lies, I wasn't going to let Sonny win. She wanted me to recover but I won't, I can't. Mum nodded,
"You promise?" I nodded at her and reached over to touch her hand,
"I wouldn't be able to Mum." She smiled through her tears and looked at my Dad. They seemed to believe me,
"I think you should stay away from Rikki from now on."
"With pleasure. I don't like people who spread lies because of a stupid argument." I smiled at them both and then went to grab something in the kitchen,
"Whats for tea?" I said, trying to sound as normal as possible. Mum looked like she was thinking for a moment,
"Takeaway?" I nodded, "Sure.. I think I can take one day off my diet for one night." I laughed and Mum smiled at me. She looked at Dad in relief and I smiled.
"I have an essay to do and then I will be down."
"Anything you need help with?" I shook my head,
"Its for History, I think it's going to be okay." I grinned and Dad nodded and smiled,
"I am glad you're okay Tawni." I nodded at him,
"I always am." I ran up the stairs and shut my bedroom door, sliding up against it as tears soared down my face. I can't believe what she has done. I can't believe she would break the trust after all this time. What did I do to her? I brought my knees to my chest and started to cry hard, I hate her so much. I thought she was my best friend, but she betrayed me. I hope she chokes on all those lies she told me, all those times she told me she wouldn't do this to me, all those times she told me she was my best friend and nothing was going to break us up.
She lied.. I hope she chokes on every single lie she told me.
