Bailey's pov
Hearing my words, Mira spins around, her eyes narrowing. " Did you just call me a hypocrite?"
I nod, crossing my arms as I lift my chin up in defiance. " Yes. And I meant it. You are and you know that Mirabella. You know I am right."
Mira gasped, looking outraged and stormed towards me, her eyes narrowing into slits of rage. I am not fazed by her reaction and stand still, waiting for what she would no doubt spit at me. " And how am I a hypocrite Bailey!? Prey tell, since you know so much about being a hypocrite."
" You're angry at me for keeping my relationship with Kaleb away from you, yet, Mira you did the same thing. You're not telling the full truth here. Especially to Kaleb. You're keeping something from him too. "
Mira snorted, looking around in disbelief before laughing in fake amusement. " Keeping something from Kaleb? What is that? Because last I checked I'm not you! I don't keep secrets!" she snapped at the end, breathing loudly.
Still, even with all her anger, I now understood why she was so mad. She thought Kaleb stole me from her and this was her way of showing how angry she was about it. But the thing with Mira was that she could never see passed other peoples faults and never saw hers.
Like now. She didn't want to admit her jealousy and anger towards her brother. She didn't want to cope with knowing she was that kind of person. And I get that. I get that fully.
" Ryan." I said without batting an eye. " You like Ryan. I could have seen it at the party, and I know so don't try to paint the oblivious card with me. It won't work."
Mira grows quiet, her eyes void of emotion before she utters. " The difference between us Bailey is that Ryan and I did nothing behind you or Kaleb's back. We flirted at the party and that was it. And sure we nearly kissed but nothing happened except for that dare!"
