Complicated love

Chapter 1

"Sora! Come downstairs, dinner is ready!"
"I'm coming!"

I replied as my mother called me downstairs for dinner.

My name is Sora, Kimura Sora, I'm 22 years old and at my last year at college. My mother, Kimura Charleen, raised me and my twin sister, Emiko alone since our father left her as he found out that she was pregnant with us. At least that's what she told us, if it's true is another question.

I went downstairs into the dining room where my mother and sister were waiting for me already and as usual I mostly stayed quiet while eating unless I was asked something. And like always, Emiko was swarming over her boyfriend who she has been dating since freshman.. how I hate it when she does that. This guy can't be any good, there is no way. While she keeps talking about him I try to change the topic.

"Hey Emi.. what are you planning to do after we graduate?"
"Hmm.. I want to do something of my own I guess. Like own a shop. That would be awesome!"

Emiko has always been the more cheerful one if us while I was the 'protective older brother', at least that's what she calls me, personally I just think that I'm more the quiet type who likes to keep certain types of people out of my live at all cost and if needed I wish I could do the same for Emi.. especially with that boyfriend of hers.

"That would suit you, yeah. I bet that it would go well if you really do that"
"You're so sweet, Sora. Thanks"

she smiled in her usual sweet way, while mom jumped into the conversation

"Look at my babies.. all grown up now"

And here we go again.. me and Emiko looked at mom. This topic has become more frequent since our mom is very attached to us due to raising us on her own. Now, both Emiko and me are preparing to move out and finally start an independent life of our own, this has been bothering mom a little too much

"Come on mom, it's not like we will lose touch to you or never visit you again"

Emi reassured her

"I know, I know. I'm just going to miss you two so much when you're not living here anymore"

*mom sighed as she put her empty plate aside*

"Not that I can stop you from doing it, but seeing you grow up so fast touches me"

I smiled as I heard our mothers words while Emiko was on the verge of tears because her words touched her so much, so she ended up hugging mom tightly.

"I'll be in my room, I have to study for tomorrow's quiz"

"Alright, honey"

Mom replied while she still hugged Emi

With that I went upstairs into my room where I let myself fall on my bed, closing my eyes. I had no motivation to go to school the following day, not at all, regardless I sat down at my desk and began to study for the upcoming math quiz tomorrow.
I sat there for hours, not paying attention to the time at all... so the hours flew by until I eventually fell asleep on my desk.

The next morning my alarm clock dragged me out of my slumber. My mind was foggy since I slept terribly, not of surprise since I slept on my desk, definitely bot very comfortable.

-perspective switch: 3rd person-

Sora got up, stretching himself before dragging himself into the bathroom to get ready for college. He took a shower, afterwards drying his hair, brushing his teeth and all the necessities.

"Good morning sweetheart. Your lunch is over there on the table"

Charleen, Sora's mother greeted him as he got downstairs. Sora grabbed his lunch before giving his mother a goodbye kiss on the cheek.

"See you later, mom"
"See you later, have fun at school"

Sora then went on his way to college, only to be net with the person he despised the most.
