The Boy Who Changed Me
Chapter 27
It's been a week, and it hasn't been getting better
here.
I'm still being taunted, and cutting has become a regular
thing now after school.
Chandler and I haven't spoken, and I don't want to
anyways.
The temptation for cigarettes has grown, and my therapy sessions
hasn't been helping, as my anger has been growing and growing
each time.
"Lexi, you have to see this immediately."
Megan said urgently while carrying her laptop.
I looked onto her Facebook page, where there was a status written
by Trisha.
Lexi is just disgusting, ugh, she probably does other drugs
too.
It showed a picture of me smoking, from a couple of weeks ago,
before I started treatment.
How could she have gotten this picture?
23 likes, 43 comments.
Some of the comments were no wonder she has wrinkles,
What did Chandler ever see in her?!, and I heard that she almost
got mouth cancer.
The last one made my heart race, how did that person know about
that?!
Suddenly, my mother walked in the room and said, "Dinner is
ready!"
We were too focused on the picture, so my mom walked in and saw
what we were looking at.
"I-Is that y-you Lexi?!" my mother said quietly.
"This was like weeks ago Mom!" I shrieked.
"Then why would this girl post it now and not weeks
ago?!" my mother yelled sternly.
I looked at her with widened eyes that were tearing up.
"O-Obvously, the s-sessions at the center have not been
w-working, and you are just t-too ignorant to see the
consequences of smoking are terrible. I have no choice but to
send you the the treatment facility near where your Aunt Carmen
lives." she said with her voice cracking.
I was shocked to hear her say those words.
"That's all the way in Oregon, you want me to move
there?!" I shrieked.
She looked at me in disbelief. "Of course I don't!
You're one of my daughters, and I love you."
I crossed my arms. "Then why do you want me to
leave?"
"I didn't say I wanted you to leave!" she said with
her eyes tearing up.
She continued, "I'll give you 2 weeks to pack your
things and say goodbye."
I turned to Megan, who was just as shocked as I was.
"Can you believe her?!" I snarled as I slammed the
door.
"Are you serious?" Megan said in a tone as if she was
scolding me for doing something wrong.
She continued, "She's doing this because she cares about
you, and you're upset because you think she's sending you
away to get rid of you! You need to stop being so stubborn to
realize that this is for the best!" Megan said before
storming off.
Maybe they were right, maybe I do need to leave here once
and for all.
