15 minutes later I stood in front of my aunt's house. It was a terrace house. Most homes here in London all look the same, tourists are most of the time really shocked because they expect big castles but that's only for the royal family. I strolled up to the front door and took a long deep breath. I don't get along with one of my cousins. Well we do sometimes unless he's annoying me, or acting like a big baby.
I reach for the door and twist it open. No lights were on, everyone must be asleep. I struggle a little getting my suitcase over the step. The floor creaks when I finally do, and the lights turn on. I look up to see my aunt looking at me. Creep.
I close the door behind me and she begins to walk and talk at the same time I assume I'm supposed to follow her so I do. "You're gonna stay in sarah's room. I haven't told your uncle you're here yet so don't make a lot of noise"
She said that last part with such fear. I hate my uncles, he's really rude. Good thing he's not really related to me. If you hadn't gotten the clue, my aunt is my mom's sister. They could be twins how evil and alike they are. We walk up the stairs and into sarah room she faked asleep when her mom walked in. I struggle to not laugh seeing as her phone is replaying on a random tiktok. " goodnight go to bed and dont wake up sarah"
I shake my head ok and mumble 'goodnight' back. I slide my shoes off and put my suitcase against the wall.
As soon as the door closed sarah jumped out of bed and hugged me. "MEL i missed you" I hugged her back "I missed you to" she ushered me over to the bed and I sat in front of her. Me and my cousins are really close.
We see each other a couple times a week, yet I haven't stayed a night over their house since being kicked out. The main reason is because I didn't think my aunt would want me here. Turns out I may be wrong, well see.
"Why are you here? Are you staying? Are you okay?" Sarah began bombarding me with questions out of excitement. "I have nowhere else to stay, I don't know if i'm staying and yea im fine" I laid down on the bed exhausted from the day I just went through. I tried to reply to her but I was too tired to even continue talking. My eyes fluttered closed within seconds.
