We pretty much sat there in silence just eating. Sal and Leo were having small talk about some job. I thought I was hungry when I was cooking but I guess not. The chicken was starting to get cold on my plate and I lost my appetite. My mind was too focused on my trip coming up in a couple of days. I am going to go to many countries and I don't know what to think. First was England, then Ireland, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Germany, Turkey, Albania, back to England and then home. Its going to like 2 months. I actually cant wait but I'm still kind of nervous. Who knows, maybe I'll see Zayn. Ehh, I doubt it. I look up from my plate and both my brothers are staring at me.
"What?" I said with a hint of attitude. They started snickering which made me really curious.
"You were like mumbling to yourself" Leo says trying to hold in his giggles. Was I though?
"No I wasn't"
"Yes you were Lola, don't lie to yourself." Sal spoke up. He had such a heavy New York/Italian accent like my father. He actually resembles my father a lot. Sal has the same jet black hair jelled back like him with very tan skin. But of course thank God, he wasn't in the mafia like my dad. He owns his own barber shop and makes decent money. He looks like the working man you usually see in movies. The kind of big button down shirt with a belt and loose trousers. He clearly needs the shave the stubble that's forming a beard on his face. Sal is a very good hearted man. Nobody can get in his way and he is very protective. Every boyfriend of mine has gotten jumped by him. Sometimes he is very cocky and it just ruins everything about him. But that's what makes Sal, Sal.
"Whatever you say Sal." I mumbled
"So, who's Zayn?" Sal asked and he was pretty serous. I've told him before who Zayn was but he just never listens to me.
"Remember the picture I have in my room from when I was 8?" I said looking at Leo who started to clear the table.
"Oh, well maybe you'll see him when you're on your trip."
" I doubt it. That was the first time we talked and as you can see the last."
"You never know Lola, God works in mysterious ways."
"Yeah but, its whatever." I got up and started walking toward the kitchen. All of the sudden a crash game from the kitchen. I ran and saw Leo had dropped some plates on the ground and they broke. Great. Now there's broken glass and food everywhere.
"I swear to God Leonardo, You are the biggest fucking idiot I've ever seen!" Sal yelled from what sounds like the living room. I can hear his footsteps on the hardwood. He was pissed." We don't have any money you brake 3 fucking plates!" Sal finally reached the kitchen and went next to Leo. He took Leo's ear in his hand and twisted it. I could feel the pain from just looking at Leo's face. Sal started to rub Leo's ear in his hand." Why Leo, why!? You better clean this fucking mess up cause your sister isn't going to fucking do it! Actually clean up everything!" He lets go of Leo's ear and smacks him in the back of the head lightly." Fucking idiot." Sal mumbles and walks away. I forgot, Sal does have a temper.
When I heard Sal go upstairs I quickly helped Leo with everything. I hate when Sal gets like this. He just thinks he owns the whole fucking world. After cleaning up I turned all the lights off downstairs and went upstairs. Our house is actually very small. It has a small porch outside and covered in chipped red bricks. The kitchen can only fit about 2 people and the living room is n the back of the house. When you first walk in from the front door, you see stars going up on your right and straight ahead the hall is the living room. On the left side of the entrance is a doorway that goes in the kitchen. The kitchen makes an L and when you exit from the other side its the dining room. If you go straight to the doorway in the dining room you see the living room. Then on your right is a door that goes into the bathroom. Oh, and cant forget the closet that was made inside the stair case.
The second floor is nice too. Once you come to the top of the staircase, straight ahead is the bathroom door. Then you make a Left an you see my room. Next to mine is Sal's, ad next to his is the guest bedroom. Which is occupied by Leo. I walk into my bedroom and my own scent hits me. I love my room. I'm so glad that I didn't have to get a dorm room. NYU is in Manhattan and living in Staten Island makes it easy for me to go to class everyday. Hey, I mean the ferry to Manhattan is free an its like a 10 minuet walk from the port. I change into my grey sweats and my New York Yankees jersey that I love so much. I walk over to my mirror and grab a hair tie and put my hair in a simple ponytail, then walk over to my bed. Why not get comfortable while I study? I sat in the perfect criss cross position and start studying. After a while my eyes started to feel very heavy. I set my alarm clock to 5 o'clock and place the alarm on my bedside table which made turning off my lamp easy. I slipped into my covers and close my heavy eyelids. Soon, Zayn flooded my thoughts and invaded in my dreams.
