Unwanted

Her

"Lena, how is your cheer team? "

I sniffed. Lena, Lena, Lena and Lena. Did they even care about me?

Oh right, I haven't introduced myself. My name is Vera Minervia. The twin of Lena Minervia. The golden Student.

"Oh, it's fine. We'll have a competition against the Jump Squad next week"

We're in the middle of dinner. And guess what my parents talking about? Right, Lena, Lena and Lena. Am I really belong on this family?

To think of it. I realize I am different from my family. They all have golden hair while mine is black with purple streak.

I ate my dinner silently. Hearing their chat and laugh. I look to my plate. Then only thing that we both share is our eyes. Sea blue with a tint of green. Other than that, nothing was the same.

"Oh, Vera, how about you?"

"huh?" I look at them. Snapping out from my thoughts.

"How is your school?" My dad ask

"It's fine, I guess" I look away to the window.

"Oh please, you're an ace in every class. How is that fine?" Lena laughed. She just can't be hated.

I did a little smile. And stood up from my seat. "I'm going to bed" I said while walking away.

I could only see them nod. Then continue to whatever they were talking about.

Yep, I have a perfect family

_____________

I woke up in my bed. I look to my room. Dark purple has always been my favorite colour. I grab my alarm clock an looked at the time.

03.00

I groaned. That's way too early to wake up.

I stand up and slowly got out from my room. There's no one awake so I put in my ear buds and sung a song while preparing breakfast.

It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you, take me by the hands take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are but I
I'm with you

As I was singing to the song, I didn't realize Lena in already on the stairs and silently clapping.

I looked at her. Did she just...

"You didn't tell anyone you have a great voice" she said walking to me.

"I just, don't want to be tagged as prideful" I said with a small voice

She chuckled. "Hey, I'm tour sister. You can tell me anything"

Can I tell you that I'm very jealous of you because mom and dad always gave attention to you? Maybe not.

I smile anyways and continue making breakfast. I made some pancakes and dip them in blueberry. But, I get to many blueberry so it turns into blue.

"Oh, Vera. Mom and dad is on a business trip"

I nearly choked. They didn't tell me?!

"They got a call last night. Since you're asleep, they told me to tell you" she said calmly while getting some maple syrup.

"When will they come back?" I said with a mouth full Of blue pancakes.

"Vera, don't talk with your mouth full!" she walked to the table and pour some maple syrup.

I swallowed the pancakes. "When will they come back?"

"Maybe a week or so" she said calmly while eating her pancakes."these pancakes are delicious! You're a good cooker, Vera!"
