Layla opened the doors. She looked calm at that point. I could only see half of Layla's face and Tylers back.
"Did they fell for it?" she asked and he nodded. Fell for what? Who? Us? What?
"Every single one of them. They are sure I am in love with you." he said and she nodded. Wait what? They have some kind of a plan? What the fuck?
"Great. Anything else?" she asked.
"Yes. I'm here for less then two weeks. And you chose me to tell me your secret. Why are you hiding it from all of them? They seem like they would be open to that." he said and I froze. What the fuck is going on?!
"Because... I did something that they would never forgive or forget about." I was getting really confused at that point.
"Alright, we are all gonna sit down and you are going to tell me everything." I said as I walked up to them.
"H-Helia, what are you do..." she started talking but I stopped her.
"Oh,save it. I want to know what were you talking about just now. And I'm not giving up until you tell me everything."
"Helia, please." she said and looked at me. She looked annoyed, scared... but why?
"No please. If you tell me this, I can promise you it will stay between us."
"Well, since you got me in your lies, I think I should know about it too." Tyler said and Layla sighed.
"Alright, get in." she said and opened the doors so we could enter. We both sat down on the bed and she sat on the floor, right in front of us.
"So once again, what I tell you now, you keep it to your selves. Alright?" we both nodded.
"Well, um... I'm a lesbian." What? ... What?
"You can at least try to hide the fact that you are disgusted." she said as she rolled her eyes.
"I'm not disgusted, Layla, I'm just surprised." I said and she made a 'yeah sure' face.
"No really, I'm not. But... why didn't you tell us? Why was it so important for everyone not to know about it? You know we would be open to it." She nodded.
"I know. But the problem is, If everyone knew this, they would eventually find out that.. um..." she stopped for a moment.
"That I'm with my shrink." she finished. What the actual fuck is going on in this place?
"I did not expect that." Tyler said as he grinned again.
"You think I did? As soon as I got here, she figured it out and told me I can tell her anything about it since she is a lesbian too. So I figured, hey, maybe I have a chance with her. And I liked her a lot. I mean, she is beautiful."
"... Okay, well, keeping this quiet makes sense then." I said and she looked to the floor.
"That's not all. Believe it or not." she said and sighed, then continued.
"She told me she would break up with me because someone figured out what was happening between us... and, that someone was Jenessa. She hates Jennifer, my shrink, and Jennifer knew that it was only the matter of time before Jenessa spills to everyone what is going on... I wasn't ready to break up with Jennifer, so I asked her what can I do to stay with her... and..." she stopped again.
"We're listening." Tyler said and she nodded.
"... and she said I need to get Jenessa fired."
"...Wait... so, all the wrong meds Jenessa was giving to Tecna..."
"Yeah, that was me. And I know that It was bad, for Jenessa and for Tecna, but... I just love Jennifer too much to lose her." I stood up at that point.
"Look. I get it. But I just cant believe you would get a innocent woman fired just because of that. And even worse, almost kill your friend for it." I said and she started crying.
"I know, and that is why I didn't tell anyone. I knew I would be judged." she started crying. It was the first time I saw her cry. I wasn't in a good mood, so I just got out of there. Tyler followed me.
"What are we going to do now?" he asked.
"We need to get Jennifer fired." I said and he nodded.
"But If we tell anyone about Layla and Jennifer, Layla will be in trouble too."
"I know. And that's why we are going to say something else that is for sure going to get her ass out of here." Tyler grinned, again, as we walked up to Ethans office.
"You're an hour late,and you bring some friends along on a private meeting? Great." Ethan said as we walked in.
"I'm sorry,but we are not here for a meeting." I said and Ethan raised his eyebrow.
"Then why are you here?"
"It's about Layla and her shrink, Jennifer." I said and Ethan nodded.
"What about them?" he asked and I sighed. I knew It was not my job to do this,but I had to. For Tecna, for Jenessa... even for Layla.
"Jennifer... had been giving Layla drugs." I said and Ethan opened his eyes wide.
"What?" he asked with a surprised tone in his voice.
"It's true. I've seen her high, walking around hallways. Ethan is here to support my story." I said and looked at him.
"He told the truth." he said and Ethan sighed.
"We need more than just a story from two teens in a crazy house to get a woman fired, or even in jail."
"Call the cops. Layla should do a drug test, and they should look in the Jennifers office for some. If they don't find anything, I will give up on the story." I said and Ethan nodded. He picked up the phone and called the police, while I walked out of there with Tyler.
"Now, tell me, Is the story real?" he asked and I nodded.
"I'm not sure did she gave her the drugs though, but she sure had some."
"And what if it was not Jennifer who gave her the drugs?" he asked and I stopped walking.
"Let's just hope it is."
