I woke up and Aliyah was gone. I felt around my bed a little as if it would bring her back.
I could still smell her.
I laid back too lazy to get up. I inhaled deeply, her scent on the sheet.
This isn't creepy at all
I dragged my legs out of bed when I remembered I had to go to school today.
School, the one thing we never asked for
Oh well, we have to be educated in some way
No sign of Ben, which is great cause I no longer have to face Ben's aka military drilling every morning just to get to school
I got into the shower. I let the cold water run down my skin. I felt really fatigued.
I got out of the shower and basically dragged myself to get dressed.
Everything feels dark and gloomy, so I opted for my usual black on black.
I picked up my backpack and walked slowly down the stairs
"Hey princess" mom approached me from the kitchen
I nodded, not having the will to respond
She squeezed me in a tight hug, before kissing my forehead.
I smiled weakly
"Good morning mom" I managed to say. I looked around
"Where's Dad"
She walked back into the kitchen and I followed
"Your father already left for work, he had something urgent to attend to"
I nodded
I feel like skipping today. I honestly don't feel like interacting with people today.
My phone buzzed
I got a message from an unknown ID
"DO. NOT. FORGET. OUR. PROJECT. SUBMISSION. TODAY☹️"
I rolled my eyes
How did she even get my number, ooh well, it doesn't matter
Gosh I feel really sick. Oh well, I am sick
Can this day be over with. I Sighed
There was a knock and mom went to get it.
"Hello dear"
"Hey Mrs Davis"
Knowing already who that was, I picked my backpack from the floor and dragged myself to the living room
They were both laughing at something, but when they saw me they stopped.
I could be skeptical about this little exchange, but right now, all energy were drained out of me
I avoided Aliyah's eyes, not intentionally
"Bye Mom" I barely muttered
I walked lazily towards Aliyah's car. She followed quietly
I got in quickly shutting the door
When she got in, I looked out the window
Why does everything feel gloomy today? I just want to go back in bed.
"Hey" I heard Aliyahs voice
"Hey" I muttered back
I knew Aliyah would be confused right now but none of this is intentional, I'm just not feeling good

Romance"You know that I'm dying and you still want this?" I asked confused. She walked slowly to me, never taking her eyes off me. Like two piece of magnet coming together, I couldn't pull away. Resting her forehead on mine, she finally spoke "I love you"
