*UNEDITED*
For breakfast that morning Emberly sat at the table the silver fork in her hand as she used it to pick at the food on her plate. The last couple of days her appetite had been low and she hadn't been eating much anymore.Sitting on the side of her Everly glanced at her and then the plate of food in front of her watching as her fork went back and fourth in the eggs. Was she mad about something? Did her and Spencer have a fight? The only time she saw her sister acting unusual was when something happened between her and Spencer.
"Em?" Everly called out to her.
"Hmm?" Emberly hummed but continued looking at her plate.
"Did something happen?" Everly asks.
"No. Why?" Emberly asks finally looking up at Everly.
"You're just playing with your food. Are you gonna eat it or take a bite at least?" Everly asks.
Emberly looked at the food, using her fork to cut off a small piece of her pancake, putting it in her mouth. "There. I took a bite. Emberly says. Everly stayed quiet as she watched Emberly rise up from the table, grabbing her plate taking it over to the kitchen and dumping her food in the trash.
Emberly placed her empty plate in the sink and walked out the kitchen heading upstairs passing her Mom on her way up. She wasn't being rude, just this morning wasn't a good morning for her.
Emberly entered her room, walking over and grabbing her clothing basket that was filled with her freshly clean and watched clothes. She took the basket over to her bed, pouring them out and taking a seat on the bed so she could get started on folding them.
"Can I come in?" Jessica stood in the doorway with a paper in her hand.
"Sure." Emberly answers continuing to put her clothes away.
Jessica walked into the room, looking at Emberly as she took a seat at the bottom of the bed on the edge. "What was that about?" Jessica asks her.
"What was what about?" Emberly asks.
"With Everly. Are you two fighting again or something I should know about?" Jessica asks.
"It was nothing. I just don't understand why all of sudden she's worried about me. It's not like I'm a little kid who needs help or anything." Emberly says.
"You know, she wasn't trying to do that. She was just concerned about you." Jessica says.
"Well she shouldn't be. She never was before, don't know why she's concerned now." Emberly says.
"She's your sister, of course she's going to be worried about you." Jessica says, "Maybe I asked the wrong question. Is there something going on with you? Something you want to talk about?"
