Ava

I couldn't sleep. I really couldn't sleep, not when my sister was going to be locked up for maybe forever? God I sound like a kid. I made sure that Casey went to sleep and decided to just sit in the living until I eventually fell asleep. I lay on the couch and rubbed my eyes, which felt, sore and itchy after crying so much. What have I done? I was a horrible person. I single-handedly sent my sister to a mental institution. But what could I do? I panicked especially after her landlord threatened to send her to prison. It was Eva's idea to get her admitted or else there would have been a high chance she would be behind bars for a couple of years for assault. Just then, I heard a buzzing noise and picked up my phone, it was Brian. I grimaced at his name that appeared on the screen.

 " A?"


It had been a while since I heard him call me by my nickname.

" A, are you there?"

" What is it Brian? Do you know it is the middle of the night?"

" I couldn't sleep, just felt like hearing a familiar voice."

" Brian what are doing? Look I'm hanging up I don't have time for this,"

"No, No! Wait! A please I.... I need to hear your voice please....talk to me."

"Uh. NO! Are you drunk?''

"No."

" Brian I can't deal with you right now I'm under a lot of stress."

" A you have always confided your problems with me, what's wrong?

" Oh, I don't know, I feel like the universe just effing hates me to the core and I feel like a jerk and my family is torn apart and you are STILL talking to me!"

"A..."

" Hang Up Brian, first Will then you! God how much heart ache do I have to take?"
" What's wrong with Will?"

" I had to admit her to Greystone."

" What?"

" She came unannounced and look it's a long story, wait, why am I telling you this?"

" So let me get this straight, your mentally unstable sister was in our house while our son was at home?"
" Its none of your business."

" Ava! It is..."

I hung up on him.

Then I curled up and sobbed all through the night.
