Chapter Six - Part Two: Begin Again.
After we left Mom in the airport (she said he can be alone inside), I rode shotgun, leaving Raf at the back.
"Why do I have to be left behind?" He complained. I turned around and gave him a look... The look of judgement.
"I've seen you in photos. Today's the only day I've seen you in person. So you don't have the right to complain about me riding shotgun, cause I'm the cousin here," I said in one full breath. That was hard... And cruel.
"In other words, I make the decisions, okay?" Nela said. Her British accent makes her even more serious than she actually is in real life.
While having a nice time, and finally getting along with Raf, Nela suddenly stopped. She looked at me, smiling.
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" She said with a big smile on her face. When I've realized that she wasn't looking at me, but still at the same direction, I turned my head to my right.
There was a fucking skatepark outside.
She parked the truck and as soon as we got off, she grabbed the two Penny boards we always used.
"What am I going to do? Watch you?" Raf then spoke. Well... Good thing we have 3 more Pennies.
"Fine. Get a Penny. I suggest you take Nela's cause two of them are her's," I said. I continued on to one of the ramps.
/---/---/---/---/---/---/---/
"Well that was fun, wasn't it?" Nela said. Raf looked exhausted tho... Well at least, he rode his first Penny. I go by my own saying "If he ain't cruisin', he ain't good for ya." But he's alright... For now.
"At least I took shotgun. HA HA," he said with joy. I just looked down and laughed.
"I feel like singing Royals," I said. I took my phone, and started playing Royals by, of course, Lorde.
"And we'll never be Royals
It don't run in our blood
That kind of lux just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz..."

After a long and tiring day of having a roadtrip, we've arrived in Vancouver (FINALLY.)
"Now we're here, can we find the flat and finally get some rest?" I demanded. I've never been bossy like this... Maybe inherited it from Nela.
"Just calm down. I think it's in the next street," Nela replied.
WOW. IT'S LIKE OUR PERSONALITIES HAVE CHANGED. SHE'S THE CALM ONE NOW.
As Nela pulled over at this really tall building that looks like a hotel, I looked at my phone at the map.
"Is this really the place?" I asked, "Pretty much," Raf replied.
I got down the pickup and went to the lobby. A blonde woman greeted me kindly. She was in her mid-20s or something.
"Ms. Joy Ansale? Yes. Your mom has called, she was asking if you've arrived... It seems to me that she has!" She said. She had a really beaming personality that let me remember her forever.
"Oh how rude of me. I'm Stella Kirsch, I'm the daughter of this hotel-slash-apartment's owner."
"Thank you Stella. I'm Joy, as you may know," I said. Then Nela and Raf had entered the lobby, "and that's Nela, my cousin, and that's Raf, her boyfriend," I continued.
"Well, it's nice meeting you all. Please enjoy your stay here while it lasts," she said. I took the keys from her hand and thanked her. I went back to the pickup to get my box of Pennies and some other bags that are mine... Mostly are mine tho.
We loaded the luggages to the cart... The one that the bellhops use in- you know what I mean.
"It says here that our room is on the 4th floor. Guess you better push that 4," I said. Nela did press the button to the 4th floor. As we were ascending, there was a catchy sound, kinda sounds like Diana, that One Direction song...
As the doors opened, there was a short hallway leading to a door. There were no other places to look at, just a hallway, a door, and a fire emergency box. We went towards the door, with me infront. While unlocking the door infront of me, I felt a little nervous cause what if this was just a small prank Nela and Raf was pulling on me. Then I opened the door...
"Looks like the floor is all ours," Raf said. We walked slowly as we were going inside. Let me give you the floor construction of this room:
When you enter the door, there are two small hallways extending from the left and right. When you go to the left, you will see three doors. Two of those are bedrooms and one is a bathroom. If you walk straight to the center there is a wide room that we have planned something to do on later on.
Going to the hallway at the opposite side, is very different. While walking to the other hallway, there will only be one door, which is like, a storage closet. When you go straight to the center, that is where the living room and kitchen/dining room is located. I know, it's kind of complicated when I explain it, but you'll get it somehow.
"This. Is. AWESOME," I can hear Nela say from the other end of the room, "I call dibs on this room!"
"Looks like I'll be having this room," I said. When I entered the room, there was already a bed which consists entirely of the matress and the frame of the bed. The matress needs loving and care and covering. So yah.
/---/---/---/---/---/---/---/
"Too... Tired... To... Talk," I said while almost dragging myself to my room. When I entered the room, I just stared at the completely empty bed... And just dropped on the bed, completely falling asleep there.
/---/---/---/---/---/---/---/
*NELA'S POV*
"Joy's asleep, and you know what that means..." I said. Raf looked at me like he was surprised.
"I'M TOO YOUNG FOR THIS. NO," He shouted. I shot him a burning look...
"What the fuck are you saying."
"Nothing...."
"So I was saying... I let Joy sleep first cause I need to tell you something."
"What is it?"
"Her mom told me that we need to distract her from being in the uni."
"What the hell do you mean?" He stood up and sat beside me.
"Her mom requested me to let her stop her studies now, she wanted her to be free of her decisions..."
"So... Ano po ang pinaglalaban natin dito?" He said. I understood what he said, even though I spoke Filipino a couple of years ago.
"Will you do this with me? Distract her from this?"
"If it means so much to you and her mom... I'm in."
"Thanks," I said with a hug. I closed the lights and both of us slept.
/---/---/---/---/---/---/---/
A/N: Guess that the Raf and I thing isn't gonna happen in the near future... I will always have Joy and Kia by my side for a while :) ~N
PS. ALL PLACES *except for Vancouver* IS COMPLETELY FICTIONAL. FOR EXAMPLE: YOU CANNOT FIND A HUGEASS APARTMENT LIKE WHAT I IMAGINE IN VANCOUVER. Also, we haven't even been to Vancouver, so... Sorry if you're from Vancouver, I haven't been to the place ;)
