Nikki's Diary

In her shadow

God is this life for me? Is this really what you had in vision for me. To be in her shadow. To just sit back and watch her become everything I ever wanted to be.This was all supposed to be my dream. She takes everything away from me. And I just can't stand it anymore. Sometime I just want to scream. Everyone so crazy about her. But I don't see what's so great about her. She gets on my everlasting nerve. But one day everyone will see her for the bitch she really is.

The bodyguard

Bill has hired Rachel a bodyguard. I will admit he's kind of handsome. And I think Rachel likes him. But I don't think she's his type. He seems like he likes the quiet type like me. Not her loud mouth brat ass. Oh the pleasure of will bring me when I see her disappointed face. She doesn't stand a chance for once I'm going to have something that she can't have. And she won't be able to take him away like she did Larry's unfaithful ass.

A father figure

Today Rachel was staring at Frank and Fletcher outside the window. She said no one has ever care to spend time with Fletcher like he does. I told her it's because he's a very good man. She said nothing she just stared out the window. So I suggested we go down were they was. Rachel was hesitant at first. She said Frank doesn't wanna spend time with me. I told her so we can say we are there for Fletcher. Come on... We walked to the back yard where Frank and Fletcher was building Legos. I should have knew better it wasn't long until they all for got I was even there.

Rachel thinks back to that day.

Fletcher: Wow Frank it's starting to come together now.

Frank: Yeah it is buddy...

Nikki: Well lookey here Rachel. You guys sure look like you have been busy. (She said coming closer with Rachel behind her quietly. She had threw on some sunglasses and was very quiet.)

Fletcher: Look what me and Frank did mom.

Rachel: I see you really didn't have to do this.

Frank: I don't mind.

Fletcher: Yeah mom Frank's so cool and you know my boat that was broke. He fixed it for me now is good as new!

Rachel: Well thank you.

Frank: No problem you wanna help us finish this thing?

Rachel: Umm okay

Frank: But first you gotta take those shades off! (He said snatching them off her face and putting them on top of his head playfully)

Rachel: I know you didn't (she jumped up and tried to get them back but Frank threw them over to Fletcher)

Fletcher: I got them for you mom

Rachel: Oh thank you sweetie (she walked over to Fletcher but instead of him giving them back he threw them back to Frank)

Rachel: This is not funny (she said well slightly laughing herself as they continue to play)

Nikki: (irritated) WELL DON'T YOU LOOK LIKE A HAPPY FAMILY!

Frank: What?

Fletcher: (Not paying any attention to his aunt) Hey there's this new movie I want to watch maybe all of us can watch it together.

Rachel: I'm all yours baby for the rest of the night.

Fletcher: Yay what about you Frank?

Frank: Well yeah if your mom is free I guess I'm free too.

Fletcher: Great come on (he said grabbing both of them by the hand and leading them both back into the house. Leaving Nikki outside alone.

So frustrated

So this morning Rachel comes in my room. With her tightest running outfit on. She said she's going to ask Frank out on a date. She said he saved her from a bad crowd at the club last night. And then helped her get into bed. She said he undressed her and helped her into her night clothes. I can't believe this mess! She says he was a perfect gentleman and didn't try anything with her but she knows he likes her she said she can tell by the way he was looking at her. How could he possibly like her she's such a bitch to him! I have to try and stop her!!

(Back To The Present)

Rachel was in disbelief of what she was reading how could her sister feel this way about her. Rachel started to think back to the day when she asked Frank out. Nikki did try to interrupt them by telling Rachel she had a phone call.

Rachel's Memory

Rachel: I mean what if he wants to take me back to his place afterwards. Are you going to come too? So the only thing I can figure.. is for you to take me out. That's what I was wondering you know what do you think? But only if you want to. Only if you want too.

Nikki: (yelling from the balcony) RACHEL

Rachel: This is so embarrassing. You decide okay? (Turning her attention to her sister) Yeah?

Nikki: SANDY HARRIS IS ON THE PHONE!

Rachel: Tell her I'll call her back sweetie (she turned back to Frank) I'm getting fixed up here! (Nikki stared at them for a moment then walked back in the house) Come on your still walking with me right?

Frank: Yeah, so if we were to go out where would you want to go?

Rachel: I don't care as long as we go out.

Frank: I would have to take you somewhere no one knows you.

Rachel: Okay, so is that a yes?

Jumping to Nikki's room

Rachel busted in the door

Rachel: NIKKI HE SAID YES!!!!!

Nikki: WHAT!

Rachel: We are going out tonight!! You have to help me pick out a outfit. Nothing to flashy I need to blend in with the regular people.

Nikki: Rachel are you sure you wanna go?

Rachel: Yes and you don't have to wait up because I asked if we could go back to his place after and he said yes.

Nikki: Why the hell would you wanna do that?

Rachel: You know why! (Rachel laughed) God I'm just so excited!

Back to present time

The phone rang

Rachel: Hello

Keyshia: I was just checking on you I'm sorry

Rachel: No I'm reading Nikki's diary now I'm skipping through the pages. But I just read that she didn't want me and Frank to go out.

Keyshia: No she didn't I was with her that night she was so pissed.

Rachel: Tell me what happened!

Date night

Frank is down stairs waiting on Rachel to come down for their date. Keyshia is coming out the bathroom when she hears Nikki confront Frank.

Nikki: I can't believe your really going along with this.

Frank: (confused) Huh? Rachel just wants to get out the house so I'm taken her out. Besides she's probably going to have an awful time with me we'll be back before you know it.

Nikki: If you think you're going to have a awful time why are you taking her out then!?

Frank: What's this all about Nikki?

Nikki: Just forget it! (She said walking into the next room)

Keyshia: Um Hay Rachel's about to come down.

Frank: okay

Within a few seconds Rachel finally appeared. And she looked as beautiful as ever.

Frank: Wow you look beautiful.

Rachel: (smiling) Thanks you look handsome too.

Keyshia: Alright you two have fun.

Rachel: Oh I wanted to say goodnight to Nikki before I left.

Nikki: (appeared in the doorway) Have fun

Rachel: (she ran over and gave her a hug) Okay (she whispered and Nikki's ear) remember don't wait up. (She giggles has she let's Nikki go)

Soon Frank and Rachel was on their way as Keyshia and Nikki stayed on the porch watching them drive off.

Keyshia: They are going to make a cute couple.

Nikki: Whatever (she said walking back in the house)

Keyshia: Okay something's wrong with you spill it?

Nikki: I just thought he liked me.

Keyshia: Oh what gave you that impression?

Nikki: I don't know I just thought...

Keyshia: Because I can't lie those two have been pushing each others buttons for the longest. All because they like each other. Shit the other day when I was doing Rachel's hair we saw him watching her music videos from her room. (Nikki looked sad) But you know there are plenty of guys that would love to date you.

Nikki: Sure they are just lining up for me. (She said being sarcastic)

Keyshia: Come on Nikki you can let Rachel have this one guy.

Nikki: Sure she can take him like she has taken everything else! (She said storming off to her room)

Back to present time

Rachel: I didn't even know she liked Frank.

Keyshia: I don't think she really did she just wanted him because you liked him.

Rachel: I just can't believe this.

Keyshia: I'm really sorry I just thought you should know. Nikki had some real issues Rachel. Frank wanted to keep all this from you but I just felt like you needed to know.

Rachel said nothing as she started reading another page.

Trip

I don't understand them Rachel came home from Miami. Talking about Frank is taken all us away like on a vacation. I thought she hated him now she's running around hanging on his arm again. And he's not stopping her. I know they are sleeping together again I just know it.

The cabin

Well it was a long and nauseating drive but we finally made it to Frank's dad house. Rachel made me sick this whole ride all she did was joke and play with Frank the whole way. Plus now they are drinking after each other. Rachel told Frank she was thirsty and he gave her some of his drink. What the hell! Now we are here and they are still playing around with each other. I had planned on sitting next to Frank at dinner but he sat Rachel's plate next to his so that they would be sitting together. Then Frank walked her to her room. She was tugging on his shirt from the back and still he allows her. What happen to all that keeping it professional mess.They make me so freaking sick. I can't wait until my plan is fully executed.

He rejected me

I saw the opportunity and I took it. But the joke was on me. I kissed him thinking like any other man he would jump at the opportunity to be with me. But boy was I wrong he didn't feel anything and he didn't kiss me back he just stood there. He told me I was very lovely woman. But it was obvious he didn't want me. He wanted Rachel. I feel so stupid so angry. I HATE HER I CANT WAIT UNTIL THAT BITCH IS ...

Back to present time

Keyshia: RACHEL RACHEL ARE YOU STILL THERE

Rachel: Yeah I gotta go bye.

She hung up the phone and instantly started crying. How could her own sister feel that way about her. The person she would do anything in the world for. Her heart was breaking and she didn't know what to do about it. Soon she heard the gate open as Frank and Fletcher was returning home. She tried her best to pull herself back together. As she hides Nikki's diary. Fletcher runs in there room to tell his mom all about the movie then he tells her goodnight. Shortly after he made sure everything was locked up Frank came up to Rachel's room.

Frank: Hay baby (he walked over to her side of the bed to give her a kiss but she clearly wasn't into it)

Rachel: Hi

Frank: Are you okay?

Rachel: Yes

Frank: Okay have you had dinner?

Rachel: I'm not really hungry.

Frank: Oh well I brought you some tacos in case you change your mind. Are you sure your okay?

Rachel: GOD FRANK YES I'M OKAY DAMN IT!

Frank: Um okay well goodnight

Rachel didn't say a word she just laid with her back to him. Frank laid there for a moment trying to understand what could possibly be going on with her but then he thought it was just her hormones. So he tried to wrap his arms around her. But it only pissed her off more.

Rachel: JESUS FRANK GET OFF OF ME!

Frank: WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM!

Rachel: YOU!!! LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!

Frank: (completely thrown off by her response) Okay (Frank got dressed)

Rachel: What are you doing?

Frank: Leaving you alone... (He said walking out the room with his car keys)

Rachel: FRANK!! (she got out the bed and followed him to the stairs) DON'T YOU DARE LEAVE THIS HOUSE FRANK!

Frank: I will be back when you lose that bitch attitude!

Rachel: OH FUCK YOU FRANK!

Frank said nothing he just walked out and left. Rachel hated herself for the way she just treated Frank. But tonight she just wanted to be alone.
