Diary Of A Davison

Chapter 22

"Oh here you are, finally!" I raised my head to look at Zach and he winked making me giggle. My focus shifted to Caleb but he was on his phone.

I walked to the table and took my seat.

"I'm sorry I'm late. I had a little girl chat with Brie and I forgot to look at the time." I poured some juice and took a sip.

"You look lovely." I blushed at his words and decided to look down to hide it.

"Thanks Zach. Caleb?" I looked at him but he didn't budge. "Caleb?" He quickly looked my way his eyes wide.

"Oh Good morning Kid, I'm so sorry I uhm.... never mind. We were waiting for you." Zach chuckled taking a bite of his egg.

"Dude she came here 30 minutes ago." I giggled at his exaggeration while Caleb gasped.

"Thirty?" He looked at my empty plate then relaxed, realising that Zach is kidding. "Well her plate is still empty." He dug into his food while I dished up.

"Kyla your brother has something to tell you." I furrowed my eyebrows at Zach and Caleb.

"What is it?" Zach smiled and took another bite.

"Don't get yourself worried Kid, it's nothing serious. Zach is moving in with us today. I have to be out of the country for about two weeks so I need someone to take care of you and I don't trust anyone besides him." What?! He's leaving?

My head throbbed for a moment when my brain processed the new information. Memories of my parents leaving for a business trip and never coming back filled my mind. The only thing I got in return was a phone call informing me of their death.

I felt my heart starting to pace while my chest started to burn.

"Kyla!" Suddenly Zach's voice sounded echoed and everything was blury. "Kyla!!" My breathing had changed too. I was now exhaling short, heavy and fast breaths. My hands were shaking I even had to drop my fork.

Am I dying? I wondered to myself.

Kyla look at Zach, try to open your eyes a little more they're closing.

Em? Gosh I can still hear you, that means I'm alive. If I was dead I'd see you right?

Yes but do as I say! You're having a panic attack.

"You're a fucking doctor save her goddammit!!"

"I'm trying okay!! Kyla, Kyla look at me. Please look at me and take a deep slow breath okay?" He still sounded echoed and understanding what he was saying was really hard considering I was almost out of oxygen. I could hear myself wheezing signalling my breathing was difficult.

"Kid? Please wake up."

"Kyla come on you can do this, it's just a panic attack. Okay breathe with me." I opened my eyes a little more looking at his blurred face and started taking in air like he was doing.

His face became more clearer and their voices a little more clearer as well. I continued to breathe steadily till I felt myself fully back.

"Fuck!! You fucking scared me." Zach whispered breathing heavily and I blinked a few times to make sure I'm not dreaming. I looked on my right and I saw my brother, he looked so worried and so scared. I had never seen him that scared.

"Kid come here." He pulled me to the tightest hug known to man. "I'm not going anywhere okay. I'll cancel everything."

What?!

"You can't do that Caleb. Listen I'm sorry about what just happened but don't worry Zach is here." I pulled back and grabbed his face.

"I've already made up my mind." Oh no!
