Alex Let's Walk The Line

Chapter 8

"Alex" I say as I saw her staring at me hard.

"What" she said smiling.

"Well your staring at me" I tell her as I got up grabbing her plate and mine.

"Tobin talk to me" she said.

I froze I know that she wants to me to tell her why I dislike my uncle. See it's just his attitude and how he looks at things. It's his way or no way.

"Alex's look can we just sleep" I say before walking out the door.

I walked down the stairs into the kitchen, I saw my sister at the table looking at I'm assuming bills. I washed the plates and put them in the dishwasher. After I dried my hands off, I went to the fridge getting me and Alex some Gatorade bottles. I watch my sister noticed I was in here and how fluster she got looking at the paper. Her hand in her hair, glasses on beside her, and then I heard her cry.

"Katie" I whispered.

"Umm" I heard her.

"What's wrong" I asked walking towards her.

"Nothing just goes back upstairs" she demanded.

"No something is wrong" I whispered and hissed at the same time.

I took a sit next to her and saw papers of bills I was upset about it. She and my brother in law had great jobs so why were they struggling with paying bills. "Katie how is this all possible?" I asked looking at her bills.

"Tobin please it's not your business" she said.

"It is actually and I knew he was right for you" I told her.

"Look at Tobin I love that you care but me and him will make it" she tells me.

I picked up a bill and showed her: "are you kidding ya can't even keep your house!" I yelled.

"Shh" I heard her. "Tobin your right happy, I think he went back to gamble I don't know okay" she said with tears falling down on her face.

"I'm sorry. I should head back upstairs and get some rest, so we can leave early before Alex's mom calls the police again" I tell Katie.

"Oh okay and thank you" she said getting up and hugging me.

"No problem you're my sister and are you planning to divorce him?" I say.

"I don't know yet I'll let you know" she whispered as I smiled and walked away.

I can't believe he went back to his old ways ugh. Why can't he understand that his wife is more important than a casino or strippers. I walked into the room with the drinks in my hand, and next I saw Alex with a book in her hands. I watch her as she tried to keep her eyes open, which made me chuckled about it.

"Babe we can go to sleep" I say walking to the bed.

"Really?" She said in a shock facial expression.

"Yes I mean I don't if you wanted to go another round, but we do need our rest" I say getting under the covers.

"Aww and yes, we do" she said moving closer to me, and I just smiled.
