"So what exactly do you have planned for today" I asked Malik as we make breakfast together.
"It's a surprise but I know you'll like it"
"Okay because I would hate to take a day off for nothing" I said and started frying pancakes. "I love pancakes"
"Doesn't everyone?" he asked with a smile. He looked at me with a smile and I couldn't help but to smile back.
After we finished cooking we sat at the table to ate the meal. the pancakes tasted like my mother's. They were fluffy and completely delicious. I miss my mom.
I lost my appetite after a single flavorful bite and ended up staring at my plate. I guess he could tell what was on my mind.
"I miss them too" he said and I looked at him. "but they are in this area. I mean how else could he have her pancakes."
"Because I cooked them" I said with a small chuckle.
"Or you were possessed, YOU WERE TO YOUNG TO KNOW THAT RECIPE" he said and tried making a run out the door but he ended up falling on his face. I couldn't hold laughter. It was to funny. "it's nice to see your smile Maddy."
I looked down and smiled softly to myself. I never smile anymore and when I do it's always around him. I completely trusted my brother.
"Well if we don't go now we will be late"
"Late?" I asked "for what"
"For...." he started then yelled "hey stop trying to get it out of me!" With a smile.
"And you almost fell for it"
"Whatever just get changed into something comfortable"
Following his directions I went upstairs to change out of the clothes I wore yesterday. I never got a chance to change last night.
After my much needed shower I changed into a pair of skinny jeans, a hot pink half t-shirt with a tank top and my black converse.
I then looked at the bathroom mirror and decided to keep my hair curly. I then made my way to the living room to see my brother looking bored.
He saw me and smiled then we headed out to where ever we were heading too. I was forced to wear a blind fold but it didn't matter when your jams were being blasted through the radio. I never stopped singing the whole car ride.
The car soon stopped and we got out. But I still wore the blindfolds. I heard screams of fear and delight.
"Malik where are we?" I asked as he pulled out my arm and got it stamped. Then stopped me at a thingy that beeps slightly. I was told to walk 3 steps forward so I did. Then I heard another faint beep and the blindfold was removed from my head.
I looked around to see we were at an amusement park. Busch Gardens to be exact. I absolutely loved this place. It had the best roller coasters. And I loved that burst of energy you got after a good ride.
"Malik how did you... I mean wasn't this expensive" I asked looked inch around at the roller coasters I could ride.
"Don't worry about it." he said "got a raise and I wanted to spend it on my sister. Was that so wrong?"
"HELL NO LETS GO" I screamed with delight and ran in the direction of the highest coaster I could see from the entrance.
"WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE" Malik screamed and ran behind me.
I ran down some steps and pass a lake as well as a group of screaming girls to get on that coaster.
I laughed with delight as we went down the 90 degree drop. And I couldn't stop squirming when we waited for the next group to load.
