After receiving the news, we instantly told Liam and Rose ,hence those are the ones we are taking. Of course Rose is going but, Liam is still convincing his parents. Either way that wasn’t until May, for now, I was focusing on this week. Spring break.
I woke up on Saturday around seven thirty to Louis yelling, Elias laughing, and Louis parents laughing as well. I made myself downstairs slowly and I see Louis panicking and his parents sitting in the table with Elias drinking what looked like coffee. “Louis what’s wrong?” I asked in a morning voice.
“Everything!” He picked up the couch pillow and sat down. “I lost the car keys and without keys how do we leave and if we don’t leave…” he looked at me, and snickered “Well you know we don’t leave.” His parents started to giggle. He took a quick glance at them and yelled “What’s so funny?”
His dad finally broke out laughing and in between breaths he said, “You gave them to me to put gas in the car last night!” Louis got embarrassed, turned red, and looked down to the floor. “Here,” His dad said, still out of breath, and threw him the keys. Both ,Louis and his dad, rushed to load the bags in the car. I sat down for breakfast with Louis’ mom and my brother.
She broke the silence and said, "So Sarah, Elias he’s about to turn 4. In July.”
I looked up from my eggs and looked at her, “Yeah I know. Why?”
She took a sip from her coffee , as if trying to avoid conversation with me. “Four is the age kids go to school. May I enroll him?”
I gasped at her question, “Oh my gosh! You don’t have to ask me! Your technically our guardian.” She smiled and continued to feed Elias; I also didn’t realize I was yelling causing to wake Rose up.
“Gosh! Sarah we might be twins but damn, I DO NOT LIKE WAKING UP EARLY!! Friendly tip you should know about me.” She walked over to the fridge and poured herself a cup of orange juice. Louis’ mom began to giggle.
“That isn’t orange juice, love.” Rose spit out the juice and stared at her. “We’re part British, that’s orange tea.” Rose began to gag and then followed by a spit take down the drain; so she poured herself milk. After that she hugged me and said goodbye.
“Good bye Sarah! See you next week when you come back….I’m going back to bed.” She made a quick pivot and walked up the stairs.
“You lazy butt,” I yelled.
“I don’t care!” she yelled back then slammed the door of her room.
I went back to eating when Elias came up to me and whispered, “Sarah where’s mommy?” I gasped and looked at him. I knew this day would come when he would miss her.; when he would notice she’s gone. I didn’t know what to say so I just hugged him and started tickling him, surely enough, he forgot all about the question. But I know this isn’t the last of it, I soon have to tell him; yet I’m not sure when. Suddenly, Louis came in yelling with his father shortly behind him laughing.
“I’m done. D-O-N-E. DONE,” he said with relief as he plumped onto the couch.
“What happened honey?” Asked his mom while drinking some orange tea.
“Go ahead tell them my ‘Loving responsible’ dad,” he replied sarcastically.
“Hey! I’m still you’re father watch your tone young man! Anyway he was bent down into the trunk putting in the luggage when I bumped into him and he fell inside the trunk!,” he looked at Louis and started laughing again. “I’m s-sorry it’s hilarious!”
“No it is not!” Louis got up, groaned, and dragged me out. “Come on Sarah let’s go before I get put in a hospital!”
Around fifteen minutes, later I was falling asleep when the car came to a sudden stop. "What happend Louis?"
"I have to pee."
"Gross then go." He rushed out of the car and into the gas station. I laughed at his foolishness. I got comfortable again and tried napping again.
"Hey babe haven't seen you in a while," whispered a mysterious voice.
"What the hell," I questioned. Then a thin, curly haired figure apperead.
"Hi Sarah!"
"Liam! Hey! Why did you call me Babe? And what are you doing here?"
"I live that way," he said pointing over in the direction we're going. "Also I'm picking up Rose Tyler and I called you babe because... HELLO British!?" I nodded and he laughed then sighed. "Anyway bye!"
Louis came running and yelled, "Bye Liam I'll call you!" He signaled a thumbs up annd left. "Babe, the real reason Liam came is because I forgot my phone."
"Legit, Lou legit."
We contunied and I , finally, took a nap. I had a dream everything was white. I heard someone yelling, "Daddy come back! I miss you." I went to the little girl, I got on my knees and I carried her bridal style. I turned her face, moved her hair, and cleaned her tears with my thumb and I relaized. IT WAS ME WHEN I WAS NINE. "Are you my daddy?"
I started crying a bit, "No. I'm you but I'm older. Don't worry you'll get passed this phase and-" she interupted me.
"I miss my daddy." I couldn't hold it in anymore I hugged her and wept on the floor with her.
"SARAH!! Sarah! Wake up," shouted Louis as he shook me.
"What?" He stopped the car and looked at me worried.
"Nothing you were crying, will it sounded like you were." I shook my head and turned the radio up.
"Up next You Found Me by The Fray," said the radio announcer.
"Louis?"
"Yeah Sarah?"
"Thanks for finding me." He smiled then kissed me on my forehead.
"It was my pleasure"
