‘i should be going’ taylor whispered, she turned to ashley, ‘call me later?’ ashley’s eyes flickered from taylor to me and back again obviously considering it.

‘yea sure’ she finally replied. they both headed out of the room to say their goodbyes.

‘ugh! i hate taylor, she’s so quiet and no fun at all! she can be a real bitch too once you get to know her’ kyla snarled, her face distorted by discust. i didn’t say anything, i just continued to push my food around my plate.

‘i don’t mind that my sister is the way she is but she could at least date someone she actually likes! she’s told me before that she’s not fond of taylor, so why does she continue to fuck with her?’ i stared at kyla intently, now i was very interested. she could tell i was so she kept going.

‘i really don’t understand her motives sometimes, if she’s not in love with taylor then she should find someone that she is in love with! and hopefully they’re someone i get along with! this has been going on too long and it’s not suposed to be any of my business but it’s getting really old. sorry spence, i don’t mean to ramble, it just gets really frusturating that’s all’ she shoved some more hashbrown in her mouth and it was momentarily silent. she gave me a curious look and i knew i would have to give my opinion or she might suspect something.

‘well, i think you’re right and i hope she finds the right person…’ i muttered, not wanting to show too much emotion. we were silent after that, not wanting ashley to hear our conversation. she had walked into the room again.

‘i… uh… i’m gonna go get cleaned up’ i said as i struggled to gather my plate of food.

‘spence, you didn’t eat very much’ kyla commented. ashley’s head snapped up, clearly waiting for my response.

‘um, i’m not that hungry ky. just got a lot on my mind that’s all’ i replied. i stole a glance at ashley and headed out of the room to go take a cold shower. maybe that would ease the growing pain in my chest.
