Bella still hadn't talked to me at all when we were packing, during the ride to the airport, or on the plane. I tried to make small talk with her, but she just ignored me. On the plane, she put in her earbuds and ignored me.

Mom welcomed us with open arms. She said Phil was out at the moment, so it was just us three for a while. Mom's new house was beautiful. It was a five-bedroom four bathroom house. It was massive, bigger than her house in Arizona, I still don't know why she got a huge house. Maybe just in case me and Bella came to see her.

For the past two days, Bella still hasn't talked to me other than a few words here and there. I don't think Mom has caught on.

It was the last day of Bella and me being with Mom

It was the last day of Bella and me being with Mom. We were all sitting outside, soaking up the sun.

"Aren't you gonna miss this?" Mom asked, "Can't you just feel the vitamin D soaking up in your pores?"
"I have definitely missed this," I said, relaxing more in my chair
"Yeah, I am gonna miss this," Bella said
"You know colleges in Florida are a lot sunnier." Mom said, taking a sip of her tea. "I'm just saying, if you go to the University of Alaska, I'm never gonna see you. And with your brother going to be a famous fashion designer in Mulan, I won't see him either."
"Mom, we don't know if I'm gonna be a famous fashion designer," I said with a small blush from the praise.
"They have a really great science program," Bella said to her
"Sure they do, and it has absolutely nothing to do with that boy you've been hanging out with." Mom started teasing Bella, I was already done with the Edward talk, so I went inside my room.

A while later, Bella came in with a box

A while later, Bella came in with a box.
"Mom told me to give this to you, said you would need it on your world trip." She told me awkwardly, handing me the box. Before she could completely walk out the door, a grabbed her wrist.
"Can we talk?" I asked her. We sat on my bed in silence for a good while before I decided to break the ice.

"Are we okay?" I asked her
"What do you mean?"
"We haven't really talked since...the incident...and last time we did, it was a huge fight or me being in the hospital."
"Yeah, we're good." She said, looking away from me
"No, we're not! You never look at me anymore, and we never talk besides a few words here and there. You always blow me off to hang out with Edward and-"
"You can't say anything about me hanging out with Edward when you hang out with Rosalie all the time." She snapped at me
"I hang out with her because she stops me from cutting. I don't want to kill myself when I'm with her. I get that being with Edward makes you feel safe and happy, but you keep blowing Dad and me off. When I hang out with Rosalie, I still make time for Dad and the rest of the Cullens, I don't isolate myself with her every time we hang out."
"I get that Rosalie makes you happy, but Edward makes me happy-"
"That doesn't mean you can just forget about me!" I shouted. At this point, my eyes had started watering and were threatening to spill out. "I didn't want to shut you out when we were both going through these things, I tried at first, but you gave up on me. I was happy when the Cullens came back because I thought I would get my sister back, but all I got was more silence." The tears started to spill from my eyes as I looked up at her, "I just wanted my sister."

Bella hugged me, I could hear the soft sobs coming from her chest.
"I'm sorry. I've been a terrible sister. I'm supposed to be your twin; we're supposed to be there for each other. I didn't mean to ignore you. I just thought you wanted your space."
"I may want space from everyone, but I will never want space from you. You're my other half, I need you by my side always."

The ride back was better than the ride there

The ride back was better than the ride there. We were finally talking to each other again and laughing together. I had really missed my sister, I'm glad to have her back.

However, my happy feelings ended when I saw Edward at the airport.
