(this is going to be a long chapter, just so you know!)
I grew up into a sweaty teenager.
And my father was worrying for his wrinkles.
And Theodor and Sierra was together almost every day.
Even Skype had found a girl, Sally (?).
But I was so jealous! You remember what I said before? About I wanting to be the only girl in this family. And how I didn't like Rosette as much as everyone else, just because of that?
Do you know how it feels then, when your favourite guy in the world are flirting with a girl?
Well, yeah. I'm his sister, but I've always been the only girl (except Rosette and mom) for him. We were like the best of friends.
He even asked if she wanted to go to prom with him! She screamed "yes!" (as if we wouldn't have heard it if she just SAY yes.) and hugged him.
My brother ran downstairs and I rose from my chair.
"You!" I said and poked at Sally.
"What now? Me?" she asked, somewhat surprised.
"I hope you're just no dumb bitch, who are just playing around with my brother!" I said.
"WHAT are you talking about?! Why would I do that? Do you really think that about me?!" she said upset.
"Well, yeah! You just walked into our house. How long have you known my brother? A week?"
"We are in the same class! We have lessons together! I've known him for a couple of years now!" she said.
"Then why have I never seen you before?" I asked, glaring at her.
"I don't know?! You're blind, maybe?"
Without a comeback, I did what every girl (or almost every one) would do in a situation like me.
I bitch slapped her.
Then she hit me and I hit her back and a fight broke out.
It was my first fist fight I ever had!
And even better, I won.
But then, my mother and brother came upstairs.
"WHAT are you DOING here?!" mom shouted. "Are you fighting? FIGHTING?! I thought that I had raised you better than that!"
I didn't answer her, I just took my punishment.
In the background, Skype comforted Sally. She cried and hugged him.
I got grounded. And I felt the tears coming in my eyes too.
But the fighting wasn't over. Then it was Skype's turn to yell at me.
"Why did you do that, Sapphire?! I've never had a girlfriend before, and when I finally get one, you're here to ruin everything!"
"Excuse me?!" I said. "You've NEVER said anything about how much you want a girlfriend before! As your best sister, I just wanted to make sure that she was not fooling around with you!"
"What?! Do you really think that? You should maybe get to know people before you judge them!" Skype said. "And my 'best sister' would never do such a thing!"
"I just tried to protect you! And this is my price?!"
I felt I had lost, but stubborn as I was, I continued to yell and shout.
Skype sighed. "What happened to you?" he mumbled.
"What happened to ME?! What happened to YOU? You've never been this mean before!" I shouted and I felt the tears coming.
Skype shook his head and glared at me. He didn't answer me. And it made me feel even worse.
