The Outcasted

-Carrying on from last chapter- -Strays POV-

"I need to fix what I have done" He said looking at me with a tear stained face.

"Ashley dont do this, you moved on in life and caught your dream, dont let just some stupid sister ruin everything" I said getting a monster out of the fridge.

"You're not just some stupid sister, you're my sister and I love you so much, I have fucked up real bad, I swear I didnt know our father was doing this to you, If I had known then I would've come and got you, Stray.... I'm so sorry" Ashley said while crying.

I sighed. "Ashley, I understand it isn't your fault, and please remember that I am still so fucking proud of you, I love you Ashley, it just all got to my head, you know? Mum was never home, You were always somewhere half way around the world, then me dropping out of school, dad beating me, it just all got to much for me" I said looking down at my feet trying not to cry.

"Baby doll, how did you even cope with it? Im so sorry that I was never there, you should've texted me and I would have come and got you. I'm sorry I didnt see it sooner, I'm so sorry." Ashley said wrapping his arms around me for a hug.

I broke. The waterworks started after so many years of holding it in. I collapsed in my brothers arms and just started crying.

"Ashley..... you asked how I coped with it all..... Do you really want to know?" I said while silently sobbing.

"Please tell me, I want to be there to help you" He said

"Can I tell you tomorrow I'm really tired" I said quietly.

"Ok hun go to sleep" Then after that I went to sleep in my brothers arms.
