One- Two Sisters

I was never a people person, not wanting to rely on someone.

Especially family, I didn't need help.

I am not vulnerable, I couldn't be. I saw how it affected people on a daily. High schoolers in relationships getting dumped, cheated on, having to many dramas in between them.
It was unnecessary.

I had my small circle and most of them were blood related to me.

My mom, my sister, Bella, and my father who lived across the country.
Oh, and my best friend. But practically family.

I'm content in my lifestyle too. I didn't need pity from anyone. Either way that's what I get from everyone. Even my older sister who tried to act like she understands.

My life was consistent. Making sure my mom was happy, helping my sister from losing her mind because of mom needing so much adventure. Other than doing that I played sports, practicing everyday.

Trying my best, not to be the best but to keep up my adrenaline. Running helps the most.
Adrenaline kept me alive, if I could jump off an airplane I would. I would do every crazy thing imaginable just because of the adrenaline that came with it.

Even little things can entice me. My piercings, having to make them a secret from coaches to play sports. Riding my motorcycle anytime was the best feeling after getting it.

I snuck out a few times, not even to do crazy things but to just say I did it.

You would think living in Arizona helped me with keeping my adrenaline up but you'd be wrong. It's the same thing everyday now. I know what's around.

And the heat, don't get me started.

As much as I love my mom, I wanted to be in a forest hiking, see a fucking wild animal that could attack me. Jump off cliffs for the hell of it. Ride my motorcycle on different roads.
Seeing my dad, maybe join him in action. Hunt with him even.

Speaking of which, I stood beside Bella, my older sister by 10 months. She had just said goodbye to some "friends" who seemed like they could care less that she was leaving.

I turn to see our mom walking out of the house, so much energy balled into one person. She had hints of sadness and anxiety pulled on her face, trying to hide it with being happy for us.
She thrusts a phone into the hands of my sister, "It won't work again, baby." She frowned, her face always looked like it moved with every feeling she had.

Never being able to hide how she felt. "You put it on hold." Bella points out, the tiniest bit amused.

"I did?"

I smirk, trying to stop myself from laughing.
As much as it is funny it is worrisome, how will we reach her if she doesn't even know how to work a phone.

"Look, you also called Mexico." Renée pushes Bella, nudging me as well as the three of us laugh.

"I'll figure it out. You gotta be able to reach me and Phil on the road." She exclaims right before she gets excited. "I love saying that," she grins, "On the road."

"Very romantic,"

"Very."

Bella and I both say, silently glancing at each other.

Phil comes up behind our mom, "If you call crappy motels, back water towns and ballpark hot dogs romantic. He jokes, well partially since he was serious.

He places a Phoenix Desert Dogs baseball hat on Renées head, along with kisses her.
Looking at them partly soothes my nerves about leaving mom. I'm sure Bella feels the same since we practically took care of her for so long. Even though it should've been the other way around.
