Kara ran as fast as she could to the parking lot. She went inside her BMW and started hitting the steering wheel. Her thick eyeliners were scattered on her cheeks, brought by her tears.
She loves him. She loved Neil with all her heart. She knew she loved him since he left. Now, Neil, her past bestfriend, the boy whom she loved, forgot about her.
She lost Neil. She lost herself. She lost the chance to see Charlie Puth, because she didn't get to buy tickets for her and her friend.
She drived herself home.
**
She parked her car to their newly made garage. She went to the living room and saw her baby brother playing blocks while watching Barney. With that, she forgot all of her problems, all things that happened that day.
Ian, her youngest brother, smiled as Kara held him in her arms.
"You are the cutest baby on earth," she said and pinched Ian's pink cheeks. He giggled and Kara giggled along with him.
Tell me honestly ~
Would you still love me
The same ~ ~
Briana ♡ calling ...
She put Ian down for a while and gave him his soft blocks, and answered Briana's call.
Since Neil left her, Briana was always there with her. She is Kara's 22 year-old cousin, well, Kara is also 22, she's just two months older.
"I saw you at the mall," the first thing that Briana said.
Kara released her breathe;
"I know. Neil is here, and he's a dick," Kara hissed.
"I'll go there. Wait for me, and don't ever think of making Ian sleep before I come or else!," Briana said and hung up.
Kara chuckled. One time Briana called her and told her she's going to visit her and play with Ian but Kara made him sleep before Briana could even step inside the house.

On the other hand, Neil took his girlfriend home and also didn't get her tickets. He started dialling Kara's old number but it says it's unattended. He had an idea; he ran to the telephone and called Mortez residence.
Someone answered the call, and it's Kara.
"Hello, this is Kara Mortez. May I know who's in the other line?,"
Neil closed his eyes and thought for a moment.
"Hello Kara. This is Neil, I wanted to talk and explain to you. Where do you live?,"
There was a long silence before she replied.
"You don't need to explain. You forgot about me, don't deny it," Kara told him.
Neil thought to himself. She has grown so beautiful, her wavy, dirty blonde hair that made her look like a complete ass in highschool, brought her to perfection. Her once short frame of 5'1 when they were eleven has changed to a model's required height. Her chubby, fat figure she had when he left is now sexy and hourglass-like.
How could he forget about her?
"Are you going to speak or what? I think I'm just wasting my time here," Kara added.
"I'm going to your house. I'll explain everything. I don't need to deny, Kara. Because what I'm going to say is real and true. And you're completely not wasting your time talking to me- because I know you still care. You won't cry if you didn't," Neil said and went to his car.
He checked her facebook account, and it says that she still lives in the same place before he left to Europe, to Germany.

He jumped out of his black BMW- and looked directly at Kara's house. It looked the same as before, but they painted the walls purple and planted four trees in the front garden. That's where they play water splash, he thought.
It was renovated. It's much bigger but it looks familiar to him. He missed this house, missed everyone living in it. Kara's mum, her four more siblings, her grandparents and a cute little puppy, named Mikmik.
Then, he saw a familiar car. Oh yes, it's Briana's mum's.
Briana Dunscht, one of Kara's pretty, fashionista cousins.
She barged in and closed the brown door.
Neil walked infront of it and knocked twice, his usual way of knocking.
¤¤¤
Briana barged in and squealed; "I saw someone outside, thinking deeply. Guess who?,"
Kara looked at her bestfriend.
"Dad is here?," she asked softly, scared and angry.
Briana snorted. "Duh, It's Mister Patterson outside,"
Kara thought to herself, why wouldn't he come in?
Knock. Knock.
There he is, standing outside her door, waiting fir her to open it. She missed those times, when Neil does that. Every morning, everyday. He used to bring her some daisies from their garden on Tuesdays, and ripe fruits from Neil's dad.
Kara walked towards the door, and slowly opened it.
And it revealed a handsome young man. He has changed, he forgot about you, remember? Kara's mind reminded her, but she brushed it away.
All she wanted is to bring back their friendship.
"Neil,"
"Kara,"
They stared at each other's eyes. It was sparkling, saying something special they don't realize.
"Come in, I'm sure you missed my home, don't you?," Kara smiled.
Neil returned the smile, "Who wouldn't, of course I do," he said and went inside.
It was the same, but there are new furnitures. Anyways, it was nice and beautiful.
"What's up bobby head?," Briana teased.
They all laughed and statrted to go silent.
"I'm sorry, Kara-"
"I am sorry too, Neil. It's the thought of you that counts. All I want is to bring us, our friendship I mean, back," Kara placed her hand on top of Neil's.
"Thank you,"
¤¤¤
"Ian is too cute to hold," Neil said as he plays with him.
"Yes he is," Briana said as she put more blocks on Ian's side.
"Where's Karylle? Is she married already?," Neil asked Kara who is in the kitchen, baking some cookies.
"Karylle is already married with Louis, her friend's brother. Don't worry, they're just the same age, 25," Kara replied.
Kara has four siblings, the eldest is Kristine, 28. She is already married to her once friend, Danver Trevor. The second eldest is Kyle, 26. He has a girlfriend named Angel and he was planning to propose a little later. He is a computer engineer and a song writer just like Kara.
The third eldest is Karylle, 25. She is a successful fashion designer, and a math professor. Married to Louis Dylan, an architect.
And then there's Kara's favorite, the youngest, Christian. Ian for short. He's going to pre-school next year, and they are all excited.
Among all of them, Kara has the most number of jobs to do. But she enjoys doing it. Every weekend she attends her photoshoot for clothing, everyday she works as a chef on a famous hotel. She writes songs and sells it to earn big money, that's why she can buy almost everything she wants.
"Cookies, everyone?,"
