Next morning I woke up from the constant knocking on the door. Hope was sleeping peacefully hugging her pillow. I walked towards the door and opened it. Brian was standing there. "What the fuck Brian....Why are you beating my door this early?" I spoke.

"Oh...you were still sleeping, that's strange. Usually, you are up by 7. And it is not early, its 10 already." He said. "That doesn't explain of your reason being here." Brian was older than me by 4 years, but he still sometimes behaves like a kid. He works with dad in his company as CFO and is married to a beautiful Mexican woman Maria.

"Okay no need to be mean to your 'Big Brother'. Hope's father sent some of her stuff. His driver dropped it off this morning."

"Thank you so much 'Big Brother'. I am very grateful to you. Anything else?" I replied sarcastically. "No". He said smiling. and turned to leave. As I was about to go inside, he asked "Are you alright Pumpkin with everything that happened yesterday? You know you can talk to me anytime." His voice was filled with concern. That's what our relationship is like. We fight and tease all the time, but we both are there for each other.

"Honestly, I don't know. But I'll be fine. I love you bro." I said with a small smile. "I love you too kiddo. Take care, okay." He left after patting my head.

I went inside with the two suitcases and placed them inside the closet. I heard my stomach growling, so after having a quick shower I went towards kitchen and saw my parents were having breakfast quietly.

"Good morning." I said opening the fridge and took the milk out. They both looked at me and wished me back. "Good morning honey. Where is Hope?" my mom said. "She is sleeping" i said while I sat next to her and pored some cereal and milk in the bowl.

"You should have woken her up, she must be hungry. She didn't eat properly yesterday as well."I didn't reply and continue eating. He sighed and said "Haven, I know you are not completely happy with this but now you are married to her, she is still young and sensitive. And now is your responsibility. So please try to move on with her, maybe you were always destined to be with her. "

"I'll be leaving for the office and will be back in a few hours" He said to mom. "Take care my child" He kissed my forehead and left.

I look towards mom; she was about to say something when I interrupted her "I know what you wanted to say. I'll think about it. I am tired mom; I am going to my room. Love you Bye." saying this I made my way towards my room.

As I opened the door, I say her stirring in bed. I moved towards my bookshelf quietly. "Good morning" she said in cute morning voice. "Hey good morning. Did you sleep well?" I asked politely. "Yes, I did. Thank you" she replied with a soft smile.

"Your father sent you stuff this morning, its inside the closet." I said picking random book to read. "Okay". She said making her way towards the closet. I remembered dad saying she didn't eat properly yesterday. "You must be hungry. Freshen up then we can have breakfast after that."

"I am not hungry, Thanks for asking though." saying this she went inside and closed the door.
