Beep! Beep! Beep! I sat up and rubbed the sleep from my eyes. I turned off the devil machine that woke me up. It was 6:30am. I got up and went straight to the bathroom. I wish you were here mom and dad. I hopped in the shower and started scrubbing my skin. 20 minutes later I was in my room picking out my outfit. I decided on a blue crop top with white high waist jeans. I matched them with black converse. I don't wear dresses and all that stuff,it's just not me. I grabbed my backpack and put my wallet, notebook and jacket. I grabbed my phone and went downstairs. I looked at the time and saw it was 7:30. I wrote a note to my sister and left.
20 minutes later I pulled up to Drip n Drizzle, the best Café in town. You can do this Ann. Just go in. I took a deep breath and went inside. I ordered a french vanilla with extra whip cream. I took my drink and sat down. I looked at the time and saw it was 8:15. Wow she's late, how professional. Just as I was getting upset she rushed inside. I don't know what she looks like but the dress suit just tipped me off. She walked up to me. "Are you Anea Heart?" She asked. I nodded my head. She took a seat and got right to bussines. "So your mother signed you up for the Serenity Program in case anything happened to her. You and another kid who's parents passed will be leaving um tomorrow evening." She said. I immediately hated her. She doesn't care about us, it's all about to money. "Tomorrow evening?" I repeated with no emotion. She nodded her head. "You and Dillon Cole have been scheduled for a flight at 4:30pm to Orlando Florida." She said. Dillon Cole. He's coming with me.
Why am I so happy about that? I got up and went to my car.
When I got home I saw sister and her boyfriend waiting up for me. "Looks like you guys won't be here that long." I said and went up to my room. I took down my suitcase and started packing. Song Cry by August Alsina started playing. "Hello?" I said. "Hey Anea. I'm I was wondering if um maybe wo could have like a little sleepover at my house." Dillon said. What the actual hell. I don't even know him and he wants to have a sleepover. "Um I don't know you. Why would I go to your house?" I asked kind of rudely. "I can't do this Anea. My suitcase is in my parent's room. I can't go in there." He said. He wants my help? "Ugh fine. I'm packing too so you have to come to my house and wait a little while." I replied, immediately regretting it. I texted him the address and not even 5 minutes later I heard the doorbell ringing. I went downstairs and looked through the peephole and saw Dillon standing there. "How'd you get here so fast?" I asked as soon as I opened the door. "Hello to you too." He said smiling. Smiling. I haven't done that in a month. I looked at him coldly. He did the same. "You know what. I don't need your help anymore. I'm here trying to be nice but you can't accept it so fuck it" he said turning around and leaving. I saw him go enter a house about 6 houses from me. How did I not notice him the 16 years I've lived here? I went back upstairs and continued packing where I left off. By the time I finished I had 4 suitcases packed to the brim. I walked over to my dresser and saw a picture with me and my parents. We were at my older brother's wedding. M.J died last summer do to my carelessness. I clutched the necklace that I never took off. M.J gave it to me on my 13th birthday. My mom and dad and Unique each gave me a pendant to put on it. I had a tiara(mom), a princess (dad), a heart(Unique) and a basketball (M.J). Everyday M.J and I would play basketball in the backyard. I wanted to join the team at school but when he died that dream went with him. I miss you twinny. Yes M.J was my twin we were inseparable. I changed in some shorts and a sports bra. Tomorrow's the day when everything changes. "Anea! You gotta eat sumn!" My sister yelled. I haven't eaten all day. I sighed. "I'm not hungry!" I yelled back. She came upstairs and handed me a plate with lasagna. She gave me a look and I just nodded and ate. When I was finished I brushed my teeth and layed in bed. I felt darkness consume me.
It was dark and cold outside. I was in the car with M.J and my parents. "A.J(M.Js nickname for me) I'm hungry!" He whined. I shook my head and gave him a bite of my sandwich. I closed my eyes and layed on his shoulder. When I opened my eyes we were in a hospital. I saw blood covering M.J and my parents. "M.J!!!! Mom! Dad!!" I ran after them but the doctor stopped me. "They're gone." I felt my knees buckle and I fell. I woke up with a fresh layer of sweat covering my forehead. I got up and walked to M.Js room. Whenever he died this is where I came when I had nightmares. I felt like he was still with me. Ping! Ping! Goodnight Anea. Come over at 8 tomorrow if we're ok. I still couldn't go in there for the suitcase -D. For some odd reason I smiled for the first time in three weeks. Is that good or bad?So Anea had a bro. Here's another chapter.
