TBTS#1: She Dated Me for Character Development [GirlxGirl]

chapter 8 - Who are you?

Collier was in a daze. She was so shocked. How did this happen? When did they date? She felt her anger surge. She was sure right now that the root cause of her sister being in a coma was Ashley's fault.

Collier leaned closer and slapped Ashley, hard. She didn't even notice how her hand was stinging right now. What mattered the most, was revenge. How could Collier fail to do one important job? Why didn't Brooklyn tell me?

Collier was so disappointed in herself. She could remember she had promised Brooklyn that she would protect her baby sister. Collier sighed and looked at the person in front of her. She felt her veins popping.

Ashley was so shocked that she didn't move. She could feel her left cheek stinging. Is she crazy? This is the first person she had met that was impulsive. Ashley could feel herself bursting right now, but she decided to be respectful instead. No use wasting my energy on this kind of person.

"Are you fucking crazy? Who are you to slap me?" Ashley was furious.

Collier clenched her fists, "Why are you always like this, even back then and now! How could you! Isn't it enough that my sister suffered so much?" Collier's eyes became wet, tears started streaming down her cheeks.

Ashley felt a pang in her heart. No matter how wrong the other lady was, she felt hurt when she saw Collier crying. Of course who wouldn't? Her sister's in a coma.

Ashley sighed. She had a lot of questions. Why didn't she tell me that she has a sister? Looking back, Ashley didn't even know a single thing about Brooklyn's family. It's as if she's Brooklyn's dirty little secret.

Ashley felt her veins popping, "What do you mean?" She gritted her teeth.

"You caused this didn't you?" Collier clenched her jaws, holding herself from punching Ashley on the face.

"What? Woah!! Really, you're really her sister," Ashley snorted.

"You're accusing me of murder? Fuck! Both of you are bitches!" Ashley couldn't help but cry. She could feel tears streaming down her face.

"Even when she cheated on me twice, I would never do that," Ashley said, her eyes filled with sadness.

Ashley grabbed her things and felt without looking back.

Collier was in a daze. Seeing Ashley cry in front of her pricked her heart. My sister what? It wasn't supposed to be like this.

She stood there alone and utterly confused. Collier couldn't help but wonder whether she had made a mistake or not and whether Ashley was not the same Ashley she had remembered.

Ashley droved home angry. Who gave her the right to accuse me? Nothing ever goes well whenever it's about Brooklyn.

Ashley sighed, creasing her forehead.

Ashley's gate opened by itself and revealed a marvelous house. It was ten times bigger than the apartment she used to live in. Her life was better now, but lonely.

As Ashley walked towards the cabinet and opened a small box, she felt furious again. The box was full of Ashley and Brooklyn's pictures. All the things Brooklyn gave her were also there. She had initially planned to give these back to Brooklyn, but now that Brooklyn's in a coma, it would be difficult to do so.

Ashley sighed yet again. Meeting with Collier is not an option, not after the other girl rudely slapped her.

Ashley got up and placed her box inside the cabinet again, closing the cabinet and leaving it to store away from eyes to see.
