It was midnight and thankfully my sister had fallen asleep on my chest on the sofa, she wouldn't say a word, she decided not to eat nor shower. All she wanted was to dress in her joggers and jumper and fall asleep on me. I have failed to protect her, she has witnessed a murder, that no one should witness, especially at such a young age. I've failed as a brother.
I sigh and turn the TV off and carry Liv to her bed, I tuck her in and allow her to rest up. I take myself to my room and undress myself until I'm in only boxers, I hide my body away in the cotton sheets where the guilt raises and consumes me.

Thankfully I'm woken by the breeze of fresh air that has made its way through the tiny gap from the window, I don't usually keep my windows open but from the troubles of yesterday my body was all hot and clammy. I woke up with sweat running down my forehead and traveling down to my chin. I wiped the sweat away and took in a deep breath to face the day.
I got into the shower and turned the knob, I allowed the cold water to travel down my body and ease my muscles, the memories from the alleyway encounter my mind and cause my muscles to tense once more, I hold the bridge of my nose and sigh. I decide to cover my body in wash and splash the freezing water over my face to wake myself up more. Luckily it worked.
I wrapped the towel around my body and dried myself off with its cotton texture. I dressed myself in my white vest top and my black shorts, I didn't want to do much today and I doubt Olivia did either.
"Elijah?" My sisters soft voice echoes through my eardrums as she notices me sitting on the edge of my bed, she strolls over and sits next to me and rests her head on my damp arm.
"Yeah?" I ask and look down at her and watch as her forehead frowns along with her lip.
"I want to go to school today, I won't tell anyone what I saw." She said, pleading at me, she released a small smile from her lips and I felt bad instantly, I didn't want her to feel as if she had to go, because she really didn't, I would've happily let her stay home and watch Netflix all day, well... After homework was completed that is.
