"Wake up" I hear a man barge in my room and shout.
I live with two girls, how can there be a boy in my room....
Of course!
"Please don't do it Mason" I plead, still half asleep
"Do what?" he almost shouts, his voice full of enthusiasm.
"Wake me up" I manage to answer
"Somethings never change" he mutters.
He stands at the foot of my bed.
What is he going to do?
Shit!
Oh no. No, please no.
I always sleep with my feet out of the blanket.
Don't tickle them. Please.
I feel him tickling my feet and my eyes fly open.
"How did you know I'm ticklish?" I say, fully awake now
"Saw Usman doing it once" he says, shrugs and exits the room.
God, I hate him.
I drag myself out of my bed and while brushing my teeth I remember something.
We fought last night.
My hands stop mid-movement.
How can he just pretend we're okay?
Maybe we are.
Or are we?
It's cool how things are just back to normal but I must not let anything his words get to me.
I can't change for him.
I go downstairs and the smell of turkey bacon hits my nose.
I almost sprint towards the kitchen but I stop halfway, I'm not eating that.
I don't want to be a 1000 Kgs in 15 minutes.
"Good morning" I say to everyone.
I take out a cup from the cabinet and pour some coffee in it
"Hey we are having bacon" Mason says
"You guys are, I'm not" I say
"Yes, yes you are" he says snatching the cup out of my hand
"Mason give it back" I state with so much authority that he legit thinks twice before running away with my coffee
But he doesn't think thrice.
He runs out of the kitchen and I follow him, clearly ignoring Kim and Rose who are laughing at us.
We stop near the lounge and by that time I see that Mason has already chugged down the coffee
"Dude that coffee was steaming!" I exclaim
"Yeah I think I kind of burned my tongue" he furrows his eyebrows and I stare at him in amusement.
What is this guy?
"I'll just get another cup" I shrug
"You're going to eat the bacon with us" he says, setting up the field for a banter
"No I'm not" I say, crossing my arms
"Yes you are" he says and drags a whining me to the kitchen.
After 15 mins of persuading, more like arguing, I have a plate of turkey bacon in front of me.
I still don't want to eat it, in my defense.
I end up taking two bites before Kurt comes in to pick Kim up.
Kurt and I were in the same year. Were.
He is honestly like a brother to me and Rose.
As for Kim, he is not a brother at all to her.
Quite the opposite, actually.
"What do we have here?" He says looking at me
"Amelia eating bacon" he adds.
I roll my eyes and he laughs.
He then starts to talk to Kim.
After a few minutes, Mason nudges his elbow with mine while looking at Kim and Kurt.
