✓ GOLD RUSH | OLIVIA RODRIGO

o24. grounded

CORA WOKE UP to the smell of fresh bacon and eggs. Olivia had woken up an hour earlier and made breakfast for the two of them.

"Any special occasion today?" Cora walked in the kitchen and saw Olivia placing the food in plates. "No, not really," Liv smiled. "I was hungry so I made breakfast for us,"

Cora knew she had to tell Olivia about what happened last night when Tara texted her. That she tried flirting with Cora but she blocked her. Cora didn't do anything wrong so she figured she could tell her and expect no angry reaction towards her.

After Cora went and showed Olivia the messages, she started to think it might've been a bad idea. "She's a bitch," Liv said coldly. "I mean why would she even do that? I'm her cousin!"

Liv took out her phone and texted her mother.

Tara told us that Cora was
the one that started it. I don't

talking about

liv
yea i know

"You should've said that," Cora looked over Liv's shoulder to the conversation she just had with her mother. "Look, you have proof that you didn't do anything. And I know damn well you two didn't kiss," Liv answered, hating that she had to talk like that to her mom.

Cora hugged her tightly as Liv still sat on the chair. "I hate Tara. She's always been jealous of me. Yesterday when I saw her I really had hope that she had changed but I guess she didn't. She's still the same bitch she has always been."
