"Kody. Kody.."

Who was calling my name?

"Hey.."

Who..?

"Wake up Kody.. you've been in bed too long.", Camille pushed on my arm.

Oh. it's Camille. I thought for some reason.. it could've been..

"You should sit up and eat. Sera made breakfast, get up.", She whispered.

Me and Lumine hadn't been at Camille's house in two months. The air felt colder and more stagnant now.

"Kody you have to stay strong and still take care of yourself. Lumine is.."

Please. He's just in the living room right? He just went out to the store or helped with making the breakfast. He's just in the bathroom or taking a walk outside. I just didn't hear him get up is all.

"at peace"

Camille cleared her throat after a long silence. She handed me a plate with a breakfast sandwich on it. She put my juice on the nightstand.

"Eat. Then after you should come out so we can all take a walk."

Camille left the room. Lumine used to take me on walks when I didnt feel well after my dad died, which was all the time. Every day I was either curled up into a ball, hiding by the nightstand or had been in bed all day without being seen leaving the room.  When Lumine found the right time, he would grab my hand and pull me up and would hand over my hoodie and shoes so we can go outside. I'm expecting him to come in the room right about now.
