Found U

I- New york??

I look up at the clock that's is hanging in my sitting room and see that it is now 01:37am. It's been exactly 3 hours since we found out that Athena is dead.

180 minutes, 10,800 second since my older sister has been dead and I haven't even been able to cry yet. Not even a single tear. What a crappy sister I am right.

Ciaria on the other hand has been bawling her eyes out. It's been almost 2 hours since I've last seen her after she went in her room and locked herself in there but I could still hear her small weeps. (Oh btw Ciaria is my best friend and she has been living with us since she was 7 years old so i practically view her as my sister. Well my younger one.)

Taking in a big sigh, I look up to ceiling and then around my room. Looking towards the door I get up for the bed I was once lying up and swing the door open. To my surprise there stood Ciaria  with a glass of milk in one hand and a tray of cookies in the other with a meek smile plastered on her face.

"Want some ?" she said whilst motioning the cookies towards me with a hopeful look.
I let out a sly chuckle.

"Come in"

Taking in my offer so quickly Ciaria marched her way into my room. Taking a seat on my bed and placing the milk and cookies by my bed stand, she motioned me to come sit. As if this was her own bedroom. Doing as she instructed. I was now sitting on the edge of my bed.

Just as I was about to say something she stops me by blurting out something that left me looking at her as if she grew two heads.

" I booked us tickets to New York and our flight leaves in 3 hours"

I let out a big sigh as I said that all in one go. Looking at me as if I had grown two heads Lio hasn't responded to what I said yet. But I know she heard. Maybe this is good i thought myself.

"You did what"

Lio finally says breaking the silence. I tilted my head diagonally slightly and smiled at her.

"I booked us both tickets to New York"

I repeated just to make sure she actually understood what I was saying.
Again she looking at me with a shocked expression.

Okay right, so maybe I should have booked a later flight. No. Actually maybe l should have told Lio before l even booked it. But you know spontaneous thought.

3 hours ago we just found out Athena died. Even though she has been in and out of the hospital for the past two month her death was still very unexpected.

When I heard that she died I tried to stay strong for Lio. I know she is really bad at showing emotion so I was trying to be there for her but it was just too much. So about 2 hours I went to my room and just cried and cried and cried.

Even though Athena wasn't my real sister she treated me as though I was and saved me from rotting away at that dreadful Orphanage and for that I will forever be thankful for her for.

After crying for about an hour I started to reminisce about our memories. One key one being New York. Athena always wanted to go there. So with that fought in mind I open my laptop and booked 2 tickets to New York on the next plane available. And that's how we got here.

With a smile on her face, Ria says once more that's she booked us a flight to New York.

Taking in a deep breath I let out a long sight along side with a most likely confused looking face.

"Why"

Is all I say because to be honest I'm still trying to understand what she has just done.

Looking down at my bed that she was sitting on she begins to twirl her fingers  together as she mutters a reply.

" because Athena Always wanted to go"

Taken back by her answer I remained quiet. Athena I thought to myself. She was Ria idol. Mine to but Athena ment something different to her. She saved her so she must still be in shock about her death but despite that she was sat her with puffy eyes trying to cheer me up. My sunshine was too good for me.

"Okay" i said

"Okay ?"  She said looking up at me in shock.

"Okay" I once again say with a more assertive tone.

"So your actually okay with coming" she beamed whilst jumping off my bed

"Well I don't really have a choice do I ?" I  questioned whilst looking at her with  a raised eyebrow and let out a small chuckle.

"Nope" she replied back with adding extra emphasis on the "p" with her back turned to me as she was now approaching the door. But just as she was exiting she spins her head back around and says

" oh and by the way their is no return ticket" giggles as she begins to skip out of my door whist shouting

"SO START PACKING!! because our flight leaves in 2 hours and 30min!!" As she begins to enter her room which was right across of mine.

"WAIIIT Whatttt!!!" I shout before standing up and start to gather my things.

(I guess this is the start of a new beginning)
