The sun rays shining into my room woke me up. I stretched and slowly started to piece my life together. "Ugh,no" I grumbled when I realized today was Monday. Mondays mean school. School means torture. For a whole week! I staggered out of bed and went to freshen up. After a quick shower I proceeded to wear a maroon halter top with my favorite pair of jeans. I really couldn't be bothered about my hair so I just quickly tied it into a ponytail. I grabbed my backpack and walked downstairs.
"Hi,mom,hi dad ,hi brother."
I said looking at my annoying twin brother, Alex. People often say we look alike, but I don't think that's true. Anyway, he just grunted and went back to whatever he was doing."I gotta go, see ya later." I said and grabbed my bag."Let's go Alex." I said grabbing my car keys and throwing it over to him." Why do I have to be the one driving?" Alex asked scowling as we walked out the door ."Um, cause l want you to." I replied monotonously. He didn't say anything else and started the engine. The drive to school was somewhat filled with an awkward silence. I hate awkward moments so I proceeded to break it."So, how is it going with you and Mila?" I asked referring to his girlfriend."We broke up."
That explains the sour mood.
I was about to ask why but we'd already gotten to the school driveway."Well, bye." I said and got out.
💜 💜 💜 💜 💜 💜 💜 💜 💜 💜
School was a breeze today,with me going through my day and going around being me. Alex and I had a couple of classes together, and I noticed him giving Mila looks of hatred.
Okay,what is going on?
I decided to confront him as we were going home. Not that I actually liked her or anything, but I felt bad for her.
"OK Alex, what's going on? I saw you back there staring at Mila."
"I don't wanna talk about it right now okay? Drop it." Alex said and turned away from me.
" Okay, I was just curious. " I replied and shrugged.
"Well,curiosity killed the cat." He implied, focusing on the road.
"Just so you know I never liked her anyway"I said, scrolling through my phone.
" I knew that. "
I scoffed in response as we got to the driveway of our home.
"Uh,mom and dad are back early, that's weird. And do I smell cooking?" Alex said, clearly puzzled.
"We'll have to find out and see for ourselves." I sighed and walked in.
We were greeted by a sight. The table was all set with a few fancy candles and some great looking dishes. We've never really had dinner together since... well the event.
Well, here goes.
"Mom, Dad ,what's going on?" I asked when I caught sight of them.
"Hi, sweeties. Lets have dinner like a normal family, okay?" My mom said.
I internally gagged.
Like we were ever normal since it happened.
We sat quietly around the table and after a while, I caught my mom fidgeting with her hands.
"Mom, is anything wrong?"
She sighed before adding, "I have news."
That caught me and Alex's attention.
"Mom, spill." Alex said, straightening out.
She nodded to my dad who said the next few words that were bound to change my life forever.
"We're moving."
