Disguise

Chapter 23 & One-Shot Results

“Kara I am so sorry.” I said as soon as the door clicked shut. I brought the dress around from behind my back and let it hang in from of me. I could see Kara’s eyes get weird and I knew that I was right, she loved the dress. “I know I’m late but I brought you a gift!”

She stared at it for a second without moving when all of a sudden she snapped her head up to mine and narrowed her eyes, “I have lived my whole life with maid outfits and the occasional sweater that I am lucky enough to get. I see you walking around in thousand dollar dresses and you don’t even realize everything that you have. I have looked at your closet and wished that I could own one of you dresses. Actually own a dress like one of yours.” I was stunned into silence when she walked over to the dress and fingered it lightly, “Now that you’re giving it to me I just don’t want it.”

“Do you want a different dress? You can choose anything out of my closet anything!” I said quickly wondering if that would be all it would take for her to forgive me. I think I knew deep down though that’ I wasn’t going to be getting off that easily.

She laughed bitterly and I felt myself flinch at the sound, “No Bella, I don’t want a damn dress from you! This is what I mean. You say you’re not materialistic but then you think that you can just buy my forgiveness with a dress.”

“Kara I don’t think that!” I argued. I didn’t believe that, I was just hoping. “You’re my best friend and I feel horrible that I forgot your birthday so I wanted to get you something! I know that maybe it isn’t perfect but like I said before we can go out later and get something else if you want.”

“Go out and get something else I want?” She questioned with narrow eyes. “How are you going to do that? Finally tell your mom that we’re friends?”

“Well no, but we’ve been out before and I could just say your accompanying me again!” I knew how bad that sounded but I did not want to tell my mom about Kara and I, not now.

She nodded like she expected this answer, “Of course. You’re twenty-two Arabella; grow up! You aren’t controlled by you mom anymore and it’s time you stand up for yourself! I am tired of going behind everyone’s back to be your friend!”

“Kara I can’t tell her now. You know that she might fire you.” I pleaded with her. She knew that that would happen so I don’t know why she wanted me to talk to my mom so bad.

“At least you would have tried.”
