Chapter 4: My Ups And Downs

Who are you? Really just think about it and figure it out. This is what I was thinking when I got the call from my mother. When my mom called me. I knew that some day this would happen, I knew that when it happened, I would be ready, ready to catch myself and my family all at the same time. I wasn't.

My sister was in the hospital. I knew it wasn't my fault, but I still blamed myself for it. I said my sister had been on drugs. And it was getting worse. She was in the hospital, we did get lucky though. She is in because of overdose, thank god my mum was home and and heard the thump from her falling. My mother ran up the stairs to find my sister having a twitching on the floor so my mum called 911. And here we are at the hospital.

My mom certainly was NOT happy, and I wasn't that pleased either. I told Stella about what happened and she said she would look after the cafe for me while I was out, bless her heart.

" I just can't believe this would happen right before christmas. I mean it's almost holidays and Jane decides to become an even bigger crack head than she already is. That is just stupid." I said.

"Honey it's not her fault, it's her stupid boyfriends fault." Said my mom. My sister was dating the worst guy ever. He was a crack head, a criminal, an alcoholic and a rapist. Last year he got me into a room alone with him because he said that he needed something, I don't remember what, but he started trying to take my clothes off and my dad walked into the room and stopped him from raping me. I got lucky, but not every one does. After it happened though I tried to tell my sister to protect her, but she didn't believe me, so I just left it.

Jonah was at the hospital with us but right now he is at a vending machine getting himself something to eat. Finally I saw him coming back. He ran up to me and jumped up on to my lap.

"Ally, i'm scared of whats gonna happen to Jane" he said. Ally is his little nickname for me.

"It's going to be okay, I promise" I said as I hugged him. Of course I couldn't promise that but I was hoping I was right. Just then Jane's boyfriend Steve, AKA the crack head, showed up.

"What the hell are you doing here" said Shane.

"Shane, what are you doing out of your room?" I said running to his arms. Once I got to him he held me tight. When I tried to pull away I couldn't. He wouldn't let me go, but then again I hadn't seen him in a week. "Okay, you can let go of me now."

"Okay but first I have to do this." And with that he kissed me more passionately then he ever has. He pulled away from me then remembering Steve.

"I'm here to make sure my girlfriend is okay."

"Well you have no right to. Your the one that got her into this mess. and I thought you and my sister broke up." I shouted.

"No we didn't we just took some time to figure things out."

"Well she doesn't want to see you right now." Said my mother, interrupting.

"Listen to me and listen to me good, you old BITCH....."

just then Shane let go of me and tackled Steve taking him down. Of course Shane shouldn't be getting in to fights in his condition, but I was so shocked at his reaction I couldn't move. It was like my feet were frozen to the ground. My father had to break them up before Steve got really hurt. The only problem was that my dad was getting old and he didn't have enough strength to pull the apart, so I jumped in and pulled Shane off of Steve.

"You FUCKING BITCH!!!" Yelled Steve, as he yanked me to the ground and started choking me.
