Loving him, Love her

New Beginnings

"Give that to me, and stop trying to snoop through my boxes Reanna, I didn't take anything that belonged to you."

I could see it in her eyes that she didn't believe me, but trust, I would not take anything belonging to my little sister. "Yeah whatever Janell, you are so anxious to leave home you could have slipped something of mine into you boxes" Reanna said with a huff.

"Anyway,  where's Brook I thought she would be home from practice by now,  she knows your leaving in a few hours."

I looked around the room wondering how my entire life could fit in five boxes. Just as I was closing the last box I see Senaca standing in the doorway. " I can't believe your actually leaving, and I will finally have this floor to myself, I mean I will miss you dearly little sis."

"I snap my eyes to my youngest and only bother standing there looking as handsome as ever in his basketball shorts, and tee shirt. "Yeah whatever Senaca, whomever gets this room just remember when I come home it's mine."

Just then Brook comes into the room looking flushed and eating an apple, "whats mine," she said. Reanna looks at her nails then look at Brook with disdain all over her face, Reanna never could understand why a girl as pretty as Brook would want to play basketball.

" She was just babbling about her room, blah, blah... "Reanna said.

Looking around the now half empty room, I think about how we ended up here and just how fast the years flew by.  I couldn't help but feel nostalgia as I slipped into thought. It was 7 years earlier and my mom LeAnn called us all into the kitchen. " We are moving, we are finally getting out of this shoe box of an apartment, I can't believe we've found the house," she asaid.

Grandmother Bloomdy own land in a rural part of Southampton Va. Apparently our great grandmother was a business women of sorts and she bought land around the county of Southampton and what profit she made she invested in the railroad some fifty years ago. After she past, the money, along with property and the railroad investments sat in probate. The family was rich, but no one knew it.

Coming out of my thoughts I felt the bed dip and was brought out of my thoughts of the past. Looking around Senaca, Reanna, and Brook were all siting on the bed. "You know I'll be home the first chance I get right, so don't get comfortable with me not being her" I said.

And with that, we began taking the boxes downstairs and loading the truck. My dad Kellen was standing at the door waiting. A man of few words, he looked at me and me a kissed me as I headed to the truck with my teddy bear Ivan and my bags.
