Chapter one,
You know your the unwanted child out of yourself and your siblings if no matter what you do i.e. graduate highschool early, full ride scholarships for college, metals for karate and kickboxing not to mention all the science metals and math competition metals that accumulated over the years, that your sibling will always come first. In this case my sister, born first, perfect, can do no wrong Isabella.
If you couldn't tell the resentment may have settled in a little to much lately, not that she has positive feelings about me either. I mean she got her way about me no longer living with her and Renee once I graduated so at 12 Renee shipped me off to my grandparents house, well Charlie's parents to be more precise. I would get in her way and make her feel bad because she was still in school and I graduated and I didn't want to help her with her school work or do it for her anyway.
So off the the grandparents house I went, which was a good thing for me because I loved them and they actually showed affection towards me. The time I got to spend with them til they passed when I was 16 was wonderful and full of love and I deeply miss them, but it was their time.
Since they passed I was named the beneficiary of their will, much to Renee's ire, so I didn't really have to worry about how I'm going to pay my bills while having just finished college.
Moving through the house to start another day I quickly switched on the coffee pot and began making me some toast and eggs for breakfast. Just as the eggs were finished my phone began to ring onto the counter. Quickly switching off the stove I moved to click the answer button on the phone not looking at the screen to see who it was. Bringing it to my ear I answered with my normal " Eli Swan speaking?" And waited a moment to here who called.
"Eli?"
" Dad? Is everything alright?" I asked concerned. He never calls me. To be honest the last time I got a call from any of them was when Bella ran off to phoenix after a supposed fight between her and her boyfriend Edwin or whatever.
" Bella's in a bad way. Edward left her a few days after her birthday and she hasn't been the same and I wouldn't ask this of you if I didn't have any other choice but-" I cut him off.
" You want me to come and help with her right?" I questioned annoyed.
" Yes I don't know what to do." I could hear the song in his voice and that decided it for me he may not have been the best dad in the world but he atleast tried to care for me when I was with him, more than Renee did to say the least.
" Alright let me see what I can do and I'll be there as soon as I can." We said our goodbyes and hung up. I leaned against the counter head in my hands breakfast forgotten and cold as I contemplated my next course of action. Would I try the soft approach and try to coax her out of whatever state she's in or rip her out of it as quick as I can even though it may turn ugly if I were to go that route.
" Well looks like I get to go to forks for a bit. Ready or not bella I'm coming and your not gonna like it brat." I said as I dug into my cold eggs and toast; least the coffees still hot.
