dahlias pov:

where am i?
this isn't my bed.
this isn't my room.
who's snoring?

i opened my eyes and saw niki hugging my waist and putting her head on my chest.
i smiled.

"AHHHHHH." i heard from down stairs.

"TOMMY STOP TRYING TO LIGHT EVERY AIRBNB WE GET ON FIRE." phil said sternly but jokingly.

i know he didn't mean it.
but it reminded me of my dad.
yelling at me or my step siblings.

*flashback*

"GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE AND CLEAN THE FLOORS." my dad yelled in broken english.

"ja vater." we said in german in semi unison.
(translation: yes father)

"dieses haus sollte besser sauber sein, wenn ich von der arbeit nach hause komme." he grabbed his jacket and ran out the door.
(translation: this house better be clean by the time i get home from work)

soon after he left, my siblings dad came to pick them up.
"sorry dahlia, but we're leaving."

"oh, ok."

"bye!"
my three siblings left and i was alone in the big house.

but i was used to it so i kept scrubbing the floors.

after i mopped and waited for it to dry and at at the stairs as to not get footprints on the tile.

i heard a knock and i got up to open it.
my shoe slipped on the wet floor and i fell on my butt.
"ow, crap." i whispered to myself.

i got up and dusted myself off and opened the door.
i forgot i had the windows next to the door.
"hah you fell you dummy." j laughed clearly seeing me fall.
then walked in and fell cause he didn't know the floor was wet.

"who's the d-dummy now!" i laughed.
i locked the door.

"shut up." he laughed and we ran to my room.
"why are you alone in the house?"

"cause my mom and dad need to work."

"why are you cleaning?" he asked again.

"cause it's my responsibility cause i live here."

"why do you speak funny?"
he asked.

i thought then shrugged.
"i dunno. what do you mean?"

"you talk like this." he put on a german accent.

"cause i speak german. it's my first language. i'm not that fluent in english yet. but i'm getting gooder at it."

"it's 'better'."

"what?"

"it's not gooder, it's better."

"oh ok." i made a mental note.

*flashback ended*

i held niki in my arms and watched the busy city from the window in our room.

"ist, dass du liebst?" niki asked in a mumble.
(translation: is that you, love?)

"ja liebe." i kissed her head.
(translation: yes, love.)

she looked up and smiled at me then went back to hugging me.
"i missed this so much." she said in english.

"me too."

we stayed in the cuddle for a little bit and then i got a text from phil saying breakfast was ready.
fuck
i really don't want to eat infront of them.
