It was Tuesday, and my alarm went off at 6:30. We were on school break, and also had dance. I decided to go. I got up, and went out into the kitchen. Clara was up getting ready and my mom was I'm her room. "Morning, Clara." I said fake smiling. Did I really wanna go back? "¡Hola Chloe!" She said. "Wow, since when did you start speaking Spanish?"
" ayer!"
"Alright, whatever you say."
Clara always went through weird phases like this. Once she had a phase of eating mashed potatoes on her pancakes. Yeah, I have to live with that. But, I love her with all my heart. Aftere eating a quick bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch, I went into my room and got my dance clothes on.
Did I even wanna go? I wasnt sure. Once I was ready I got into the car. I didn't wanna see Abby. While my mom pulled out of the driveway I started to sob.
"Chloe, you don't have to do this if you don't want to. Don't let this woman destroy you. All the offers you have gotten and had to cancel, you can finally do all these things. Your career can take off. But you can still dance with her if you really want to." Mom said, trying to cheer me up and help me make the final decision. I stared at her, think to myself: 'My real career could start now, at 13. I don't need Abby. I have other friends. Like Paige, who left the ALDC and is as happy as can be.' I finally spoke up.
"Mom.." I said.
"Yes Chlo?"
"I..I don't wanna! I don't want to let Abby destroy my life and take all of my self esteem." I was practically yelling.
"Good explanation. I've raised you well."
Mom said with a smile as she pulled back into the driveway. Clara was ignoring us while we were talking, playing with her Elsa doll.
   I went inside and checked twitter. I tend to follow a lot of fan pages.
'Hurray! The ALDC is coming back! A week from today until a brand new episode!'
A Chloe Fan page said @ Chloebirdlover33:
'Can't wait until the next episode to see Chloe! She's my idol!' I liked the photo. Thought about commenting on it explaining what happened, but I thought I'd just keep it a surprise.
    2 hours later I was getting a phone call from Nia. I ignored it. At least she cared enough to call me.
