Just You Is Enough

Phone calls

I'm sorry for a late update.

It's been a week and now I'm excited to meet mom, dad and James. I haven't seen them in a while and only see them in my laptop screen. As I drive my way there, I never realize how some changes made in here like there are now new houses along the way, a new small shop. It's just so good to be back and besides this is where I grew up! I can even tell with my eyes closed where my house is.

I just feel a little sad that I had to leave the twins there back at the house. They keep on begging me not to go.

"Samy please don't leave us! I promise we're going to be good boys now..." Danny said as he cries with Jonny.

"I'll be back before you know it guys, I promise you that. You two were a good boys okay? I just need to go for a while and be back soon okay? So don't cry." I cooed them. It hurts me seeing my little brothers cry.

"Is it because I open your door earlier without knocking? Don't you love us anymore?" Jonny asks.

"Of course not baby, it's not because of that and I love the both of you with all my heart. Okay, what if I'll call you tonight, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow? I promise you two, that I'll be coming home soon okay?" I promised them and I was glad they agreed to me with the help of mama and papa's magic words.

"Okay kids, Samy needs to go now. What if we go play upstairs?" Papa suggests and the kids' eyes widened.

I smiled as I remember what happened earlier.

I parked my car outside the house; I smile as I made my way through the door. I missed this. I took a picture of the house so I have it on my phone before I enter and I was welcomed with the smell of the food I requested to mama. The smell is so good that I want to eat right now.

"Mom, dad, James I'm home!" I shouted and walks around looking for them.

Suddenly I heard some footsteps coming through our wooden stairs and I know its James by the heavy steps. I hide below the kitchen table; I know that he will look out for me behind the door because I always hide there. Well, let's try something new right?

Like what I expected, he looks out behind the door as I peek silently. He has this smile on his face that I missed. He was there looking everywhere and later on he is gone. I frown, thinking where is he and then my phone started to ring! James name flashed and I hurriedly look for the button to silent it but before anything else,

"Got you!" James shouted as he looks down at me.

Rolling my eyes, I can help but smile. I stood up and we hug for awhile and pull out.

"I missed you Samy! How are you?" James said as he ruffles my hair and I slap his hands in return.

"I missed you too and I'm good as always King Kong! So where are mom and dad?" I ask as I look around.

"They're outside, buying 'who knows' what it is." James said as he off the stove and I chuckle.

"Believe me; they missed you so much like I missed you. When you called last week, they won't stop talking, thinking and listing about what they need to buy, what do you want or everything. I told them that you won't like it but they insist. Well, I don't blame them though, we love you. Ever since you left, this house felt empty as I go down here every weekend. Everything just change, I have no one to bother any morning. It's just so empty here but its okay now, I think all of us here were now accepting things step by step." James said and I felt my heart melt as my brother's words hit me. It pains me and made me love and value them even more.
