'Shut up Johnny' I scream attacking him with the mop.
So, me and Johnny had been made to clean the kitchen after earlier actions. I wasn't happy in the slightest. I was in a foul mood and Johnny's stupid comments were not helping in the slighest.
'Tee, go tell Mike' Johnny whined as his little sister Tee wondered into the kitchen.
'Grass' I commented. Whacking him again with the mop. Amusing myself.
Tee looked at me and then back at Johnny before shaking her head and strolling back out.
'HAH, your sister doesn't like you' I screamed. Throwing plates into the sink,
'Shut up... At least I know my sister' He laughed in my face.
I grabbed the brush and started sweeping the floor...'Wait what?' I questioned. What did he mean at least I know my sister? I glared at him. What did he know that I didn't?
He shrugged his shoulders before wondering away from me. I grab his arm gripping onto it tightly. 'What do you know' I demand squeezing his arm. He yelped in pain, I didn't care I was getting to the end of this.
'Nothing' He cried whacking my arm. I let go, sighing. Chucking the brush down and storming out.
'Where are you going? We've not finished yet!' Johnny shouts after me. I carry on, why was I cleaning anyway they can stuff it none tells me what to do. I storm past Gus who had a burning question for me. 'What's your favourite colour?' My favourite colour? SERIOUSLY. 'RED' I say bluntly.
'Who's in the office?' I questioned Gus as he scribbled his latest information down in his notebook.
'Mike, Gina, Tracy and a girl and there was another woman she went to the toliet' He says nodding. This boy doesn't miss anything!
'A girl...?' I ask. 'She's in the kitchen' I hear Mike say as he slips out of the office spotting me. I turn to him, what was going on. Was Johnny telling the truth was this girl my sister? She couldn't be she didn't look anything like me no surely. 'What's going on?' I ask puzzled.
'Why aren't you in the kitchen?' Tracy pipes up.
'Who's she?' I demand. Hating never being told the truth in these places, always kept in the dark. Having to figure out things for yourself.
'I'm your sister, Nicole' The girl told me.
WHAAAAAAAAAAT. No way, she couldn't be I was an only child. Who was she why was she lying, how did Johnny know.
'You can't be!' I scream back at this girl a few years younger than myself. Her eyes brimming with tears. Another strange woman appeared behind the girl. 'Right who's this?' I sigh.
'I'm Nicole's mum' she annouces proudly.
'She's not my sister then is she?' I shriek. 'My mum and dad are both dead. Buried in the ground' I say coldly. The girl who's apparently my sister in floods of tears.
'Shall we talk in the office?' Mike suggests as the other kids start to listen in, a crowd gathering.
'Hi, Scarlett' the weird woman with long dark brown hair smiled at me.
'Scarlett, this is your sister Nicole and her mum Louise' Mike tells me calmly.
I laugh. 'Can't be' I refuse. I think I would have noticed If I had a sister?
Louise leaned forward in her chair and looked at me. I hated the way she looked at me like she felt sorry for me, well she shouldn't.
'When you were a baby, me and your dad were seeing each over' she told me hand on my knee. I shrugged it off quickly.
'So, you were shagging my dad behind my mums back...' I asked, telling it like it was.
'Scarlett please' Mike added in.
'It wasn't like that'
'So what, Nicole is my dad's child?' I roared.
'Yes. I was pregnant with Nicole when your mum and dad died. He never knew I was pregnant'
'My dad wouldn't...' I shake my head. My dad was a good man I know that him and mum where very much in love. He wouldn't, he couldn't.
'I'm so happy I've finally met you' Nicole, smiled. I glanced at her; she looked so normal brown hair green eyes... A normal top, normal trousers, normal everything. She couldn't be related to me she couldn't.
'What do you want then?' I ask. 'I don't need a sister' I shoot back. Nicole's mouth opening her tears brimming. For the first time in a long time, I feel bad. I've never thought about anyone else's feelings. This was all new to me, how was I meant to react by a random girl being my sister. I didn't know her I didn't want to get to know her and for her mum she was...
I stand up my head spinning. Everything blurring.
It all coming back to me. 'The reason for Mr and Mrs Rose's car crash was never identified, their was no other cars involved. It was believed Mr Rose was distracted as him and his wife were arguing'
My palms becoming clammy, my head throbbing. My vision fading. What if my mum found out, what if it was this woman's fault why my mum and dad died. This was too much to deal with. What if...? The walls moving around me. Felt like I was being viscously thrown around on a rollercoaster. It felt like the floor was becoming closer and closer. 'Scarlett' 'Sca...rlett'
'Scarlett!'
Silence.
