Framed

Chapter 1: Together

Lea's POV
I cracked open my locker.
"Ah!" I gasp as I try to completely turn around without my boots squeaking.
"Oh my God Kennedie you scared me half to death!" I relief as I turn around to see Kennedie.
"Haha! Got you again." She chuckles.
"So how is everything?"
"What do you mean?" She questions like she is clueless.
"You know like...everything with your parents?" I stutter out of my mouth.
"Oh... Everything is f-fine." She turns her head down towards the ground. This is a sign.
"My mom won't stop drinking her cheap wine, and my dad is constantly at work! I hate how he found himself a new job." Kennedie's face turns as red as a tomato.
"Why?" I gasp inside my mind.
"We never spend time together. Ever since my dad left, my mom has been acting like this. I've never spoke to her about it though...," Kennedie frowns. Her eyes start to become glossy.
"Well... I have to go. My mom is here to um... pick me up so I will just getting going." I hesitate. I've always been so afraid to talk to Kennedie. To be honest, she scares me.
"How was school honey?" My mom asks as she turns around.
"Like it always is?" I recon.
"Well what is this always?" My mom tricks me as she chuckles.
I roll my eyes and stare out the window as I watch the beautiful trees pass by so celerity.
We arrive at home and I reach for an apple on the counter. As soon as I lay my hand on the apple, someone grabs me.
"Not so fast honey, dinner is almost ready." My mom and dad correct me.
Ugh! I'm just so eager to eat something. I skipped lunch today.
I skip up the stairs and in to my room. I flip up my laptop. Surprisingly I am already logged in to Chatters. Yes I know, sounds like a funny name. It's pretty much like a mini facebook, but weaker. I never get tired of it, though.
My eyes fall out big as I see that I have over 99+ activity. Ugh, this is the "best" feeling ever. Not. I scroll through my activity and find that Tara posted a new picture. I see Tara and Kennedie in the car eating mini blizzards. Oh I see how it is, I wasn't invited {😂} I scroll through the rest of my activity. Nothing really new. Just stupid friend requests.
"Time for dinner honey!" My mom echoes from the kitchen.
"Be right there!" I shout.
I stumble down the stairs as I almost trip. I'm so hungry.
I devour my food as I rake off my plate. I crash it in to the sink, as my mom stares at me. I slowly walk back up the stairs.
I flip up my computer. CrEeK! There goes my computer again.
My tongue flys out as my eyes bug out wide. I spot many nasty words on my screen. B words. F words. W words. Woah.
