#8 (Location) Carson College
(This will be in Polly's POV)
"I can't believe that you are not going to be at Riverdale High this year." You turn around to look at your sister whom was sitting on your bed.
"Hey I'm not leaving Riverdale at least." You smiled gently. "I'm not even leaving home. Mom and Dad agree to hire someone to help with the twins when I need to be at school. Sides Carson College is just a thirty minute drive from here."
Betty's eyes lifted her eyes. "It just won't be the same without you Pol." She worried her bottom lip.
You sat down close to your only sister. Wrapping your left arm around her waist. "Hey Bets. This isn't like when they first learned of my pregnancy. I will be home every night."
Betty sighed as she lowered her eyes. "It was hard without you in the beginning last year Pol. Not knowing the full story on why you left." She leaned into your warmth. "Just knowing that they lied to me. That they lied about what physical condition you truly were."
You sighed as you thought about the year before. "A lot has changed B. Mom and Dad do regret reacting that way."
Betty's head lifted, and she stared into your eyes with such raw anger. "They said you were mentally unstable."
You sighed. "I haven't forgiven them for that Betty. At least not yet." You looked towards your closed bedroom door. "But I'm not willing to kick them out of my life over this." Looking back into your sister's eyes. "The twins need their grandparents in their lives. I mean if Mom and Dad can't be there for them ... then that just leaves the Blossom's."
Betty shivered.
"At least Jason was willing to leave all that behind him." You turn your eyes back to your mirror where you left your favorite picture of you and Jason. "He was willing to fight for the life he wanted with me ... and the twins." A lone tear rolled down your cheek.
"You truly loved him didn't you?" Betty softly questioned.
Turning back to face your sister. "With my entire soul."
