Ashley’s face turned white.
She panicked.
I started to look at the camera footage.
“Someone is trying to hurt Ashley! I’m going
to find out who did it.”
Ashley grabbed my phone.
I dodged her and pinned her hand.
I found the footage.
Ashley looked around to see if anyone was
watching.
She poured a packet of powder into a glass.
She drank it.
She covered her stomach and stared at the
glass.
She smiled.
“Emily, you won’t get my parents‘ love.”

“I’ll say you gave me this. What can you do?”
She laughed and started to cook.
I paused the video.
I looked at Ashley.
“Ashley, what did I do to you? Why are you so
mean?”
“Ruining my reputation won’t help you. It will
embarrass our parents. Why are you doing
this?”
I knew my parents would care about their
reputation.
My parents understood everything.
My dad was furious.
“Ashley, you’re crazy. You’re hurting yourself.”
My mom rolled her eyes.
“No wonder you got kidnapped. If it were me,
I would have sold you, too.”
Ashley’s face turned red.
She couldn’t say anything.
I smiled.

I looked at Ashley.
I raised an eyebrow.
She caused this.
- 15.
