Runaway Vivian

Chapter 3

She was in the hospital for 3 weeks. I had to donate some of my blood because she lost so much of hers. Good thing I'm type O+! When we were at our house I had to cook, clean and do everything while trying to catch up on my studies. I had no freedom anymore. My parents called and told us they were coming home in a few days which made me more stressed then ever. Sean dropped out of the collage because he wanted to get into law instead and decided to come home and take a break while he found a good law school. He was going to be home in a few hours so I had to make sure I had the house spotless.

Maria was laying on the couch, watching TV when the door bell rang. I assumed it was Sean and I ran up to get it. It was Dan. How dare he come around here after what happened? Who the hell does he think I am? "Hey Dan." "Hi Vivian. I wanted to apologize. I know it won't make much of a difference but I shouldn't have laughed or agreed with them in the first place. I'll go now though. I'm sorry." He said then he walked down the driveway and down the street to his house. Not even 10 minutes later there was a knock at the door. What does he want now? I thought to myself. I opened the door and nearly had a heart attack. "VIV!!" He said. "Sean!" I yelled ecstatically as I gave him a huge hug. "Hey Green bean! How you been? Or should I say bean!" He joked. "Okay I guess, I missed you a lot." I said. "Don't leave me out." Maria called. Sean ran over and sat on the floor beside her, feeling her forehead and giving her a hug. "Aw Mary. Its okay, I'm here to look after you now." He said. I was hurt. I know I shouldn't be jealous of my own sister but when it comes to Sean, I want all the attention. He's my favourite person in the whole world.

I walked into the kitchen and continued to make dinner for us three. By the time it was done cooking I turned the stove off and served it. We had chicken wings, French fries and some pork chops because Sean was home. It was around 11:30 when we decided to call it a night. Everyone was tired and it made more sense to go to bed now then to be more exhausted later.. I guess that makes sense? I let sleep take me from my agony as I wrapped myself in the never ending darkness that was my dreams.
