Chapter 6: Weekend Trip

Start from the beginning
                                    

Katelyn returns back to their room, earlier she has just thrown her stuff in the corner and left Jade to herself. Jade did not mind that at all. She has promised her mother and herself that she will try to be nice to Katelyn and to not cause any trouble. But since she has a talent for getting in trouble Jade decided to stay quiet for the whole trip. Jade will not speak to anyone as long she doesn't have to, she will just concentrate on the song she is writing for school. Maybe also learning her line's for the musical Wicked.

„Dad asked me to show you and Jason around", Katelyn breaks the silence.

„And you're doing everything your daddy says", Jade immediatly fires back.

„So I guess you don't want to?", Katelyn just ignores her comment.

„No!"
„Fine, even better, so I can go alone with Jason."

Jade isn't sure how to feel about this. Katelyn will be probably really nice to her new little brother and in the end he will most likely like her more than Jade but Jade pretends she doesn't care about it. It's not like Katelyn isn't taking over her life anyways and at this point Jade is just tired of it. It's like just another unfortunate circumstance she has to add to the list of things she has to learn to live with. Like Beck constantly flirting with other girls, Tori getting all the lead roles, her mother being unresponsible at times and now having a half-sister that not only looks like you but also is everyone's favorite!

After Katelyn is gone, Jade wanders through the house since there is nothing else she can do. She looks through the window and sees Katelyn playing basketball with Jason outside. They both are laughing and having fun. This is exactly what Jade feared. After watching them for a couple seconds Jade sits down at the piano in the hallway and starts playing her new song.

Karen, Katelyn's mother, walks down the stairs. „I don't know why they even let you go to that school. I mean, you're just average!", Karen says. There they go again. Everytime she's alone with Jade she manages to insult her in one way or another. If Jade fights backs she tells her father and he of course rather takes the side of his lovely new wife than the one of in his problematic daughter.

„Excuse me?!", Jade tries her best to hold her tongue.

„Your father spends so much money so you can go to this school although we both know it's just a waste of time."

„Oh, so you're upset you don't have the money to get a new pair of boobs because the last doctor did such a horrible job", Jade says.

„Someone needs to raise you proberly, but with a mother like yours there is no hope left", Karen says calmly but clearly offended by Jade's comment earlier. She may be a grown up woman but she behaves worse than every teenager at times. Jade's hands are shaking. She cannot take that woman talk bad about her mom but she promised to not do anything stupid. So she walks outside, slamming the door behind her.

„Jade, where are you going?!", Jason screams after her.

„I'll be back later. Stay with Katelyn!"

Jade walks through the woods surrounding the house kicking all stones that come in her way.

Katelyn walks inside after a while after playing basketball with Jason.

„Mom? Why is Jade so mad?", she asks her mother.

„I don't know but I guess that girls has some serious anger issues. You should stay away from her."

Katelyn takes a chocolate bar from the shelf.

„Katelyn, you know you shouldn't eat that!", her mother says.
