-Reyvin-

"And her name was Lorien" I said as I looked at her exit the cafe.

I can't believe she left me here all alone in this cheap coffee shop. Why am I here anyway? Ah yeah! I chose this venue. Great.

I got out of the cafe and went back my way.
Wow. It rhymed haha!
And when I got home,
My sister ran towards me. I thought she would jump and hug me like she always does when I arrive home.

But I was wrong.

She jumped. Yes. Then she punched me in the stomach. I was able to take hold of her fist but she used her free hand to land another shot. I was caught off guard. Pook.

Then I noticed her fist then took hold of it.

"What's wrong with you?" I asked with an angry face on.

"You ate my muffins." She said with teary eyes.

"No. I did not." I lied.

"I found my tray in your room."

When she said room, anger roused inside me.

"You went where?"

"Your room."

"Didn't I tell you not to go in my room?"

She was silent. Not looking in my eyes.
Then a car beeped outside. Mom's home.
I lost my grip and she ran towards the door. I could tell she's gonna report to mom how I took her muffins.

"This kid's a pain." I said to myself.

"Reyvin!" Mother called.

"Yes mom! Coming." I said as I ran towards the door.

"Veritas here said that you took her cookies." Mom said while looking at Veritas then at me.

"Muffins mom." Veritas corrected her.

"Sorry. Her muffins." Mom said.

"Yes I did. What's worst is she went inside my room."

"You musn't have do--" Then mom suddenly looked furious. "Veritas..." She said turning to Veritas.

"Mom?" Veritas said.

I could tell. Veritas is scared.

"You went in whose room?"

"Elder brother's"

Mom tilted her head still looking at Veritas. I could feel Veritas breaking down.

"Mom." I interrupted.

Mom snapped. "Sorry dear." She said.

"It's okay mom. Veritas. I'll make cupcakes for her later." I said.

"Meet me at dinner, children." Mom said. She left.

Veritas and I exchanged looks.

"You shouldn't have went in." I told her.

"Sorry brother." She said as she hugged me.

"I'll make cupcakes for you later okay?"

"Muffins..."

"My cupcakes are better. Not saying your muffins taste bad."

"They don't. You finished a whole tray of 'em." She said laughing.

I smiled at her. And made my way to my room. I checked my phone and saw 1 message. It was from Lorien.
It read : "Hi. Lorien here. Nice meeting you."

She saved my number?

I sent her a message too. And so we had our first long conversation.

Night came... *knock knock knock*

"Who's there?" I said as I looked at my door.

"Truth."

Just Veritas.

"What's wrong Veritas?"

"Dinner."

"I'll go down."

So I did. And we had dinner. It was very silent. You could only hear the spoons and forks clanking.

"So mom," I said, breaking the silence. "How's the company doing?"

"It's doing great! By the way my dear!" She trailed off. "Wait." She said as she finished her meal. While she was doing this process, Veritas asked.

"Mom, which school am I going study this school year?"

Mom placed her right hand up with palm open. Gesturing us to wait.

"Ahem!" She cleared her throat.

"Son, you're going to Lycée Athénée de Luxembourg. And you my coral, are going to Lycée Technique du Centre."

" Lycée? I'm not gonna study at home mom?" I asked.

"It's time for a change dear." Mom said. "You need to be exposed once in a while."

"Separate schools mom?" Veritas asked.

"Yeah. Your brother doesn't want to be in the same school as you." Mom said smiling.

Veritas glared at me.

"What? It's normal for elder brothers to be annoyed by their younger sisters." I said.

"Yeah. Normal. What's not normal is that they really try to get away from 'em. Seriously brother?"

I shrugged. "Mom's decision."

"Now finish your meals 'coz Uvavorite here, you set up the theater." Mom said.

"You mean? Movie mara-" Veritas said.

"Great!" I said standing up and went to the entertaining room to set up the theater.

Yeah. Friday nights are movie marathon nights.

Hello! Hope you enjoyed! :)
