"Was he mine? My oh, my,
He kills me with his grace,
But at most whiles, he makes me want to smack him across the face."

I woke up horrified by the screaming beside me. I almost fell off the bed trying to steady myself. It took me a second to get familiar with the bright sunlight, after which I saw my nephews jumping and playing around, like they were high on drugs.
I rubbed my eyes to see Cirro climbing onto the bed,
'You're awake! Mom told us to wake you up', He beamed at me while settling himself on the covers.
'Yeah, well, you guys gave me a heart attack during the process', I said ruffling his hair.
'It's not our fault you sleep like a dead person', Mateo said straight up.
'Don't say that', Thiago reprimanded Mateo, hitting the back of his head. To which Mateo yelped in pain.
It was almost iconic, how Thiago acted like a big brother to his siblings even though he was still, like 10. At his age, I remember myself slurping smoothies and annoying my sister, while she scolded me to get off the book shelf. Oops! Trauma reminded. Anyway...
'Sorry about him. Mom has prepared breakfast, she told you to get down in 10', Mateo told me and ushered the other boys out of the room.
Last night was honestly a blur, I crashed onto the bed after Anto told me to, and after a few hours she called me down for dinner. I didn't tell Leo what happened with Neymar, despite Anto's constant insistence. Leo bought the story that I told him about how Neymar apologised to me and was a complete gentleman. Oh, how bad I cringed when I said that story.
We ate dinner as usual, with the boys' telling about their day at school and Anto telling about her day and so on. But I didn't speak that much for the whole dinner. Though, after dinner, Leo asked me if everything was alright. I replied (lied) that everything was indeed great. I went to bed after that.
I brushed my teeth and took a cold shower in the bathroom. I made my way down the stairs to find the dining table all set up for breakfast. The boys were running around the house while Anto and Carla, our maid were preparing lunch. Anto saw me and beckoned me to sit at the table,
'Oh, she's finally awake. Come sit, honey, we were waiting for you.'
I sat myself at the table and the boys sat in their seats seeing me. We chatted a little bit before Anto settled in with us. Carla served us the food and I thanked her. I looked down to find out it was my favourite dish. My face brightened and I glanced up with the widest smile to find Carla already grinning at me.
I was too engrossed in my head to notice Leo joining us. He kissed Anto on the lips and sat at the head of the table.
He glanced at me for a moment and I smiled at him. He reflected my smile and started eating, casually conversing with the others.
I occasionally joined in on the laughter about whatever joke Mateo told, and tried to be as engaged as possible.
After everyone were finished, I took out my phone and opened Instagram. I took some pictures of myself with Anto and the boys to post them on my account. I didn't take any photos of Leo, knowing it would blow up my inbox.
