He stopped singing, so did I. Then he played the tunes of the song. I sat there listening. Swear It All Over Again is our favorite song. When I was 6 and he was 5 we learnt the song by heart. We always love Westlife. And their songs.

"Thank you, Luca" I smiled. 

"Are you okay now?" He asked hopefully. 

"Oui. Better than ever" I whispered. He grinned and put my guitar down. He hugged me and I kissed his cheek. "Thank you baby brother" I ruffled his hair. And like always, he scowled at me. 

*End of Flashback*

Maman was calling to check if everything okay with me and of course, saying merry christmas. Christmas. The word tug something sensitive in my heart. Two years ago just like today, I lose Josh. 

Two years. 

Forget it, Jas. I told myself. "Music music music.." I mumbled to myself. I put my iPod on the dock and started playing Michael Buble. I need a little.. Jazz. I sang my heart out to his song L.O.V.E. This is my papa's favorite song! 

"L is for the way you look at me O is for the only one I see V is very very extraordinary E is even more than anyone that you ado-"

Just then my phone decided to ring. I sighed and let Michael continue the song without me. It's Luca! How sweet! I turned the volume down.

"....is more than just a game or two.. two in love can make it.."

"Luca?" I grinned happily. I missed him so much. He didn't call me since 5 days ago and I missed him tons. I wished he's still here but he decided to take college in New York. We see each other rarely but he always call me. At least once a week.

I heard him chuckled and I could imagine his smile. How I love my baby brother. "Hi sis how are you?" He asked me in English. 

"I'm good. Tu me mannques tellement" I answered softly. 

"Tu me manques trop, ma sœur" He added. I could hear someone shuffled in the background. 

"... is for the only one I see.. V is very very extraordinary.."

"How have you been?" I switched into English again. "How' college? Any new girlfriend? Anyone bullying you?"

He grunted.  I bit my lips. I know he hates my 'big sister' sh*t. "Sis I'm not 13 anymore. I'm 18. I'm an adult now"

"I know" I whispered sadly. He grown up so much.

"..is more than just a game or two, two in love can make it  take my heart but please don't break it.."

 "Uhh but just so you know I'm still you baby brother, sis" I grinned at this. 

"Of course! So tell me everything I've missed!"

Ding dong! I was just finished showering and was about to make some tea when someone rang the bell. God can't I have one day without people bugging me?

I opened the door. And attacked by a big bear hug. "Oompfh!"

"I've missed you! Merry Christmas!" My big cousin, Henri laughed out loud.

"Auntie Jas!" Oliver giggled and hugged my leg. 

"Merry Christmas, Jasmine" Jeanne hugged me and kissed both of my cheeks.

"You guys! Merry Christmas!" I grinned happily. Didn't expected them to come here. I picked up Oliver, an adorable 4 years old child of Henri and Jeanne. He's the cutest boy I've ever seen. He would be a nice boy and say hi to people he met. "How's my favorite boy doing?"
