I came home. It's already lunchtime, my brother should be a home already. My brother is going to bother me for not doing lunch. I didn't notice but I've been gone for almost two hours.
I went inside and it smelled good. Something like, pasta with steak!
"I'm home!" I yelled, and laid my things on the couch.
"Do you have any idea what time it is?" Said my brother from the kitchen. I went into the kitchen. My brother was putting the dishes on the table already with food.
"Sorry, I was in the music store buying a CD." I told him, trying to apologize.
"For two hours?" He asked me.
"Yeah ..." I said looking at the dish.
"Doing what?"
When did he become a questionnaire?
"Justin, I told you. Buying a cd!"
"Lucy ..." He knows that something else happened, but I can't tell him that I was there talking with the employee. He will want to go talk to him and tell him not to hurt me, and if something happens he must accept the consequences with him, so I don't want to say anything to Justin. As I said before, he is very protective.
"Justin don't worry!"
"How can I not worry about you? You're my little sister."
"Justin, I'm 21! I'm no longer a kid!"
"About three years ago you said the same exact thing! Do you remember what happened after you said that? Alex! Alex happened!"
"But Kendall isn't like that!"
Oh crap! I don't believe what I said. I had no notion of words. Now what I most feared would happen.
"Who?" He asked angrily.
"Nobody!" I was trying to lie.
"Is it the guy from the music store?"
I don't know how my brother knows that there is a guy working on the music store, he barely goes there.
I looked at him and looked him in the eye. I got up and went to my room.
I hate fighting with him! He's my brother, my best friend, the only person in my family who lives 24 hours with me, who knows me better than anyone! It was him who was there for me when I needed him, along with my grandparents. I've spent my life beside him. I hate fighting! I sat on my bed, cross-legged with my head in the middle. I was crying. A knock came from the door. It should be Justin, of course.
"Can I?" He asked only putting his head inside the room. I raised my head. Tears went down my face. I know it hurt me and Justin to see us like this.
"Sis, you know I hate seeing you like this." He said sitting next to me on the bed.
"I don't like to fight with you, but you gotta let me live my life without any strings attached. If I need anything I'll talk to you."
"You know it's hard for me to let you go. I've watched you grow from a little girl to the beautiful woman you are now. I always want to protect you."
"Now you seem like a father talking to his daughter." I said giggling, wiping my tears.
"Don't laugh of me!" He said laughing. "Friends?"
"Always." I hugged him. He looked at his watch. "I have to go to work."
"Ok" He gave me a kiss on the forehead and stood up walking to the door.
"So ... about Kendall-"
"Don't you have to go to work?" I looked him in the eye. He smirked then left. I laid in bed looking at the ceiling. In half a day I have gone through so many emotions. I sighed. Then I heard a noise. It was my stomach! I didn't get to eat because of the fight. I decided to go down to eat.
