Almost There

chapter one

I am absolutely not a morning person. I just hate mornings soo much. If you live with an older brother, that likes to take up all the bathroom space and make it smell like his stinky cologne you'd know what I mean.

"Kyle get out of the flippin bathroom! I have to get ready for school." I yell hoping to get his attention over his loud music.

I pound on the door a few more times. I felt like opening it but you never know what he's doing, so I'm fine.

"Hold on! Jeez I'm almost done!" He yells back.

The door flew open, Kyle came out glaring at me with his hair looking disoriented and messy. 'Did he even try to make it look neat' I thought trying not to laugh at his appearance.

"Hurry up, I need to finish my hair." He said while glaring at me.

"You sound like a girl saying that Ky-Ky." I told him. He shoves me lightly and walks into his room. I laughed and got ready.

By the time I got down for breakfast it was 6:30. There was a note on the counter.

Hey, left food in fridge if you want any. Have a good day kids. BEHAVE at school!

P. S I'm talking about you Kyle.

The one that left that message is my mom, she's been in and out of the house since our father left. Mom said she has to go "find" herself, you see my parents got a divorce when I was around 3. So I didn't know my dad much, but Kyle does. He remembers him, dad would come to pick him up but never me because he said that I remind him too much of mom.

What I don't understand is why would someone do that to their child. I mean your kids come first, that's what my gramma always said to mom around the time they got a divorce.

Ever since Kyle got old enough to watch me on his own, ( around 10, in my mom's point of view that's old enough.) mom left to go traveling and party. But when she does come home its for a few days, and all she does is go to her room and never communicates with us. I do miss her though, her laugh, smile. But all is well, I try to keep my emotions to a minimum and ignore the world. Ignore everything.

I finish getting ready for school and head out the door.

"Kyle I'm leaving for school. Love you." I yell.

"Bye Stells, don't get into any trouble, see you at school, love you too." He yells back, ha as if I'd get into any trouble, I'm like a shadow in my school, no one knows me but my friends.

"Assbutt, you're the one that gets in trouble!" I say while trying to hold back a laugh. I run to my car and head to school.

Hey, so this is my first time writing a story. So I'm sorry if it's not that good. But I'll keep trying, and writing.

QOTD: Don't like the chapter you're in? Write a new one. You're the author of your life.

Love you awesome nerds!!
