Katherine
That little bitch, Katherine seethed in silence, Celine had slid out of the room, though not before shooting one final dirty smirk in Katherine's path, she was left to face the scrutiny of her mother. "I know you were at the party...but the way Celine said…..you weren't involved, were you Kathy?" Katherine felt as though her heart was pumping out of her chest, of all the nights she as kept up, haunted by her near fatal endeavour…. As much as the good in her urged confession, Katherine couldn't bring herself to imagine being on the other side of her mother's look if she did.
"How could you even think that?!" The liar in her won out, and Katherine feigned ignorance, "You think I'm some drug dealer?" To add to the performance, she got up flung her arms up in the air, and if what Penny was suggesting really was preposterous.
"No, baby no…I…I'm sorry, but Celine-"
"Celine is a liar." Katherine's face darkened, "Celine is trying to paint me as the bad guy, yeah sure, I was at the party…but Emily? She's like a sister to me." That seemed to convince Penny, and Katherine felt victory rest deep within her twisting stomach, she knew she'd triumphed when Penny hugged her, I guess I've got the acting genes after all.
She slipped in Celine's rom when Penny began dinner, she slid in close to her, and Celine could feel Kathy's grin against her ears, "Clever little stunt you pulled there, baby sister, too bad mom didn't believe a word of it, you see, I'm far too smart for that." She pulled back and left, relishing her victory.
