White Walls

Amanda POV

All my life I have been lied to, I've had friends that have betrayed me and back stabbed me. But I learn to live through it and move on, I don't know how I did it. But I did, my life hasn't been the best and right now I can't say no one else is too. People make mistakes and learn from them but me, they just keep happening.

My mom died of cancer two months ago and I've been living on my own with my sister Kylah. We missed her ever so dearly, then my dad thought it would be best to live us. He said that since mom wasn't there anymore that he couldn't handle waking up every morning and seeing our faces. It reminds him to much of our mom.

So he left basically the next morning right after her funeral, packed up and left us. We had no money so we had to get jobs, I got a job as a bartender and Kylah got a job as a waitress at Olive Garden.

At least we had our friends to help us, my best friend Jersey helped me get through this even though I never thought I could. She has never lied to me and I hope she never does, we have a friendship that no one could and would never break. We've been through it all, break ups and make ups.

Her family took me in as one of them so at least I could say I had a family. Kylah stayed there too and we even paid some bills for them even though they said no we did it anyway. All I can say is that my life is nowhere beyond perfect. Lately Jersey has been hiding something and sure as hell I can feel it.


Jersey’s POV
I’m Jersey Matlin an everyday girl you might see on the street, but really I have a big secret I haven’t told anyone ever. It happened about 2 months ago and my mom and dad both got a divorce so I lived with my mom having to be my father is an alcoholic. My mom is a drug addict and soon lost her job and now she’s homeless, where as I live in a house with a man named Harvey Grand.

He offered me a job when I was working part-time at the yogurt barn, and I didn’t agree right away but I soon did because of the amount I could get to help out my mom. Harvey then told me that I should just give up on her and live with him and we could spend more time together.
My secret is I’m a stripper.

I live with Harvey because he said he loves me and we have had sex before.

None of my friends know this and I’m scared they will judge me, but even if I tried to get away Harvey would never let me he wants me forever he said. I hate to lie to Amanda, my best friend ever but I can't help it if I couldn't afford anything. Now I can and it feels great to not be stressed and doubtful all the time.

But I can't live like this forever, and if I do for to long I don't know what will happen.
