Chapter 7: Conversations kill (Skywriter's Point of View)
I keep thinking about what happened a couple hours ago when Kate came home. She wasn't happy at all when I told her about the man who came to visit her. Especially when she found out that I didn't get his name or number.
"What the hell Sky, couldn't you have at least got his name?" She yelled. I had only shrugged, not really knowing what the big deal was. Apparently he wasn't lying when he said he wasn't sleeping with her, because when I described him, she didn't have a clue to who he was. Or at least that's what she said. Though something in her eyes told me otherwise. Her voice too.
"God don't you know not to let people we don't know in our house!" She yelled.
"He said he knew you! You're the one who flew off down the street and stayed gone all night. Besides, like I said before, I didn't let him in. Danny did." I explained, a little irritated at the fact that this was all being blamed on me.
"What did you tell him Sky?" She asked seriously.
"Nothing. Honestly. I told him your name. I gave him our number." I told her.
"You gave him our number! Jesus Lexan! Are you insane?!" She yelled.
"Well, I'm sorry Kate, I thought he was a friend of yours or something. I don't know." I answered. I wasn't sure why she was so upset. She sighed heavily and sat down at the kitchen table.
"Well, did you tell him I was your sister?" She asked finally.
"No. The thought never even crossed my mind." I answered. She looked strangely relieved.
Dally's Point of View
"Did you talk to him?" I ask her anxious.
"Yeah I did." She answers, sounding somewhat relaxed. I'm so nervous I want to reach through the phone and shake everything out of her.
"And?" I ask impatiently.
"And, he said he didn't give him his name or his number." She answers.
"Jesus Kate! Did he tell him anything I need to be worried about?!" I scream.
"Dallas, chill out! No, he didn't tell him anything. He didn't tell him I was his sister." She answers. I let go of the breath I've been holding.
"And he doesn't know-" I start.
"No." She answers, cutting me off. "He doesn't know that you're my brother."
