Chapter 3.2: Useless Perv pt.2/2
8:28 a.m.
***
"A thirty thousand dollar bracelet for a test score of..." Mrs. Dumahl trails off extending a hand behind her. A paper is placed gently into it by a maid. Taking a glance her irrate smile grows more.
"You got a mere 88 marks...and now you where such a luxurious accessory?"
Caige is frozen in place as is her father. She studied her best. And had Lani's help. This is the best she could do. So why was her mother being condescending about it.
She tried her best and thats all that should matter.
"Is that right? Did I get everything?" She turns towards her husband who has been rather quiet for a moment. "Dear..." he begins. "She did put forth her best efforts and that's a good score! I bought her the bracelet to encourage her. Let her be, hm?"
Mr.Dumahl places his hand on top of his wife's and Pats gently. His attempt to calm her didn't work. "You expect me not to explode!" She glares sharply at her only daughter. She springs up throwing the coffee mug onto the ground shattering it.
"Your useless! Your grades are terrible! You sit around all day reading despicable things! And you contribute nothing!"
Dazed, scared, and hurt, she sits there tears welling up in her now royal purple orbs.
"Arika!" Dominius shouts! "What the hell is wrong with you!?"
Incoherent arguing is all Caige can comprehend at the moment. Tears suddenly fall as she stumbles out of her chair to leave. School doesn't start til ten. She wasn't going to school. She needed to escape. Just for awhile. She didn't want to process all that had just happened.
Stepping out of the gates of her house she clicks the contact and holds the phone to her ear.

Not waiting to hear a hello, she asks for company. Being alone right now would lead her to do something she'd regret. It can't happen again. "Can you meet at the library?"
"Ha- I'm in school I don't think I can. Heh."
"Oh right..."
Noticing the tremble in caige's voice led to prying. "Babe..? What's wrong?..u okay?"
"No." Caige manages to squeak out against the uncontrollable sobs.
"Okay I'll pick you up! Text me your location. On my way." With that. The phone call ends. Caige plops down on the curb, wiping away the tears frantically. Awaiting her true companion.
TO BE CONTINUED...
A/N: what's Arika's deal? Did the coffee burn? Where did Micah go? And who the hell is Caige's true companion!?
