Broken with a Millionaire

Chapter 14

Kyree Cash

"Is my sister here yet?" I asked Kira through the phone.

"Yes sir. Do you need her?" She asked me.

"Yes, please. Thank you Kira." I said as I placed the phone back on the hook. I ran my hand down my face roughly and sighed deeply before  closing my eyes. "Damn I fucked up." I whispered.

"Yes, you did." I heard my sister say.

My eyes opened quickly as I looked at my sister who I could tell had been crying all night. 

"Lexi, I'm so sorry. I didn't know you felt that way." I said softly.

"You never give me the chance to explain myself Kyree. You bury yourself in work and if it doesn't pertain to this damn building you don't give a fuck. I'm the only one who made an effort and truthfully, I'm tired. It hurts to know that my brother would choose to save a business over his own sister. It hurts bad. But, I won't say anything else about Mom and dad. I'll keep my thoughts and memories to myself." She said to me as she tried to walk out.

"Wait!" I said. She stopped but didn't turn around. "What?"

"I don't want to be like a robot Rahlexi but it's hard. It's the only way I can ignore the feelings and emotions I have towards this whole ordeal. You like to remember the memories and relive those moments. I don't. I don't like too because when I finish reminiscing I'm slapped with the hardcore reality. I have to face the fact that my guidance is gone. My backbones are gone. When dad died Rahlexi, I lost half of my heart, my emotion. And when mom ran away, I was stripped of the rest. The scraps of emotion that I do have left I choose to throw away because it won't do anything but sadden me. I hate that with my attitude, I pushed my sister away. And I've always known that you needed me but I guess I was so sure that Kira could help you. You needed someone to confide in and I thought that Kira was the best thing. I guess I was wrong. You needed to confide in me. Truthfully, I need to confide in you as well. I haven't realized any of this until you told me off last night. Damnit Rahlexi I don't want to lose the only family I have left. I love you and you know that. And as much as you do for me, I take you for granted. I'm sorry, that's all I know how to say. This is the most that I've said at once since mom ran away. I hope you can see that I want a relationship with you and I don't want you to push me it like I've been doing you. I'm sorry Rahlexi. I really am." I said finally doing the one thing she wanted.

She turned towards me with tears running down her face. She ran around my desk and hugged me tightly. "That's all I've wanted to hear. That's it. I'm here for you. I love you Bro." She said in between sniffles. I sighed as a tear fell from my eye. If actually felt good to relieve what's been on my chest. Especially when it's my sister.

"Now let's straighten up." She said as she pulled away and wiped her eyes. She fixed her hair in my mirror as I placed my head down on my desk. I looked up just as she opened my door. "I love you bro." She said as she left out and closed my door.

"I love you too.... I love you too." I said as I went back to studying these statistics.
