So there's this girl who goes to my college...let's call her sue. Yesterday Sue and I hung out. I went to class I was a perfect student and then class was over and as I was walking to my car I saw Sue. "Hey sue!" I said.
"Hey," She replied.
"What time do you have class?" I asked.
"Noon," she said.
"Ok wanna go get Starbucks?"
"Sure," she said.
So we went to get starbucks. After getting starbucks she had me talk to this guy. After talking for a bit 11:40 rolled around. "Sue, we should probably get you to class," I said.
"I don't wanna go to class. I'm not going."
Both me and the guy tried to reason with her to get her to go to class but she refused. I evetually had to say, "If you don't go to class I'm going to text your mother."
"I don't care," she said.
So I texted her mother saying this:
I walked her to class and messaged her mom again. She replied with something Sue thought was funny. She had me walk back to the guy and read the text messages. He laughed and she thought that he thought it was funny. I saw his laugh be more uncomfortable than anything.
"Sue, we really gotta get to class," I said gently.
"Ok," she said sadly.
I walked her back to her classroom. As we were wating for her teacher to arrive this girl named Lexi was waiting there also. "Hey Sue," she said.
"Hey," she replied.
The three of us got talking and Sue began to say some weird things. The way Sue and I met was through this campus group called CRU. I hated it because the girls were not only mean to me but they were also meant to Sue.
"I'm a staff member at CRU," Sue said, "and we talk behind people's backs."
"And that's a good thing?" Lexi asked.
"Umm....no. But I'm just like them," Sue said.
"Sue, it's not nice to talk behind people's back," I said.
"So? Everyone else does it. We talk behind your back and your boyfriends back," she said.
That got me angry. They can talk behind my back all they want but they can NOT talk behind my boyfriends back. Sue giggled seeing my reaction and I calmed down.For all I knew she was just saying this stuff to get under my skin...but I wouldn't put it past those girls to talk behind my back and my boyfriend's.
Class started for Sue and she reluctantly went in the room. I felt lost. I figured why not get some homework done while I wait (I promised her that I would hang out with her after as a means to get her to go to class)? So I headed to the library but then I realized she was going to have no way of finding me because she doesn't have a cell phone. She doesn't have a cell phone because her mom or this pastor took it away because she recorded her mom yelling at her and was planning on taking it to the authorities. The pastor said that it was dangerous for her to have a phone and something happened where she got banned from a church or a church event.
Anyway I decided now would be a good time to call her mom and figure out how to best help her so I did. It started with a simple question of "Sue said she talked behind peoples backs and she thinks it's a good thing. What do I do? How do I respond?"
Her mom launches into this huge back story about her and Sue. Here is what I remember from it:
1) Her mom had to give up a fiance for her. The fiance said that if you don't institutionalize sue then he wasn't going to marry her so the mom said "bite the dust" and gave him his ring back.
2) Sue got her mom fired from her job by contacting her moms boss on facebook and telling him everything that was going on at home.
3) Sue's mom is jobless now and hasn't worked in three months and can't find a job because there are none that are flexible enough so that she can also care for Sue.
4) Despite everything Sue demands that her mom gives her a life of luxury and does everything for her.
5) Sue also gets jealous when her mom will buy a piece of candy like a chocolate bar for someones birthday and not get one for her.
So that's what I remember.
Sue gets out of class and she asks me to text her mom when she was going to pick her up. so I did and her mom said that she was there. Sue wanted to hang out more so I messaged her mom asking if we could hang out more. Her mom said no. So we walked to her moms car. Her mom and I got to talking and as we were talking Sue picks up a needle and begins poking her leg with it.
"Uh...sue," I said nervously.
"Give it to me," her mom said.
"No," Sue said.
Her mom grabbed the pin away and Sue looked very annoyed. We talked more then they left because Sue's mom was on her period and didn't have a tampon. I offered her a pad, she took it and then they left. When I got home I got a message from Sue's mom saying that they are going to be moving within a year because the taxes are too high.
WHAT DO I MAKE OF THIS??? I AM SO CONFUSED!! Also how can I help Sue? Keep in mind I have only been hanging out with her for two days. What I just described is day 2.
"Hey," She replied.
"What time do you have class?" I asked.
"Noon," she said.
"Ok wanna go get Starbucks?"
"Sure," she said.

"I don't care," she said.
So I texted her mother saying this:
Your daughter doesn't want to go to class. What do I do?
She responded:
Tell her no or she is in big trouble.
I told Sue what her mom had told me and she said, "oh fine."
I walked her to class and messaged her mom again. She replied with something Sue thought was funny. She had me walk back to the guy and read the text messages. He laughed and she thought that he thought it was funny. I saw his laugh be more uncomfortable than anything.
