Well, Sierra left this morning to serve out her sentence at Fort Starch. I can't say I didn't know this day was coming. But to have it come now, well, feels a little anticlimactic. Especially in light of all the things that's happened recently (her coming out, her new girlfriend, her college placement). Mom did everything in her (considerable) power to hold off on it, and as it is, she did manage to get Sierra's sentence reduced. I miss her loads already and wish I could have done more to prevent this. I feel so awful.
Three weeks ago, at her high school prom, Sierra came out as a lesbian.
Apparently, she told our former butler Max first. Then she broke the news to mom and dad. Finally, she told the rest of us. On top of that, she told us she was dating Lily Richards, a girl in her advanced placement class.
She's a royal pain. But she's still my little sister. And I love her to death.
Trouble is, I have no idea what she's capable of. When I went through her room, I found guns and knives in her desk drawer. And jewelry. None of it mom or dad bought. She's got no reason to steal anything! And what was she doing with more weapons than the military? What was she going to do with those?
I wrestled with whether to inform mom and dad about Sierra's weapons stash.
I could tell that Mom did not want to comply with the order to send Sierra away.
I mean, the whole time Sierra was bragging about getting arrested and getting in handcuffs, thinking it was cool. Even little Skylar was talking about getting arrested, like her big sister.
I think that was the last straw for them.
