I stay out side for a while welcoming the warm summer air surround me as I watch the colors change in the sky."What do you want for breakfast, it's Sunday so we can eat breakfast then go to church if you want to."I hear my grandma say as the birds chirp their songs in the early morning light." Yeah, do you have anything for pancakes?"I ask with my stomach growling telling me I should eat soon." Okay, what about church?"she asks getting ready to head back in side." Yeah,I think we should go to church." I know that she knows what I mean." Okay I will start on the pancakes."as she heads in I stare back out into the brightening day,wandering what will come next.

I head inside as soon as Jason tells me that the pancakes are done. We eat quietly, not wanting another argument to heat up the semi-perfect day. After I eat three pancakes I quietly put my plate away and go get dressed for church. I decided to wear a light blue high-low dress I got last Christmas. Then I slip on my sandals that I got a couple of days ago for school, and I go and look for the necklace that I will always love. My dad got me the necklace in France while he was there for a international job. As soon as he came home he gave me the little velvet container that held the new treasure. When I opened it I was speechless, and still to this day every time I pull it out of its container I remember that day.

I step out of the bathroom just finishing my braid when Jason steps out of his room and walks to the kitchen. He grabs a glass cup and almost slams it down on the counter." Jason, are you okay?" I ask not knowing what that question will bring."No I'm not Aubrey. You just let your emotions fly every where,while I'm here holding it in so I seem more responsible,but it's tearing me to pieces."he says with a voice that has anger,but tears puddling up at the corners. I walk over to him and pull him into a hug,"It's okay to cry,I won't judge."
