He smiled, because he knew it. He knew what was invading my thoughts.

- So you also still remember..Gosh, look how young we were.
- Hey!! We aren't old, calm down. - we giggled - but this one will always be one of my favorite pictures.
- Let me see if I find the one that I have in mind. - he kept watching the pictures without letting me see them clearly, he was being too fast for me to memorize every single one - I didn't find that one but I found this.

  He was holding one of our last pictures, if my thoughts are right, it was really the last one. We were in a park and my mom contracted a photographer to photograph the dresses she was designing at that moment but Zayn remembered to ask if we could do a photoshoot and well, it happened. It's funny because until now, I still think that picture it's perfect for a photoshoot. I was wearing one of my mom's blazers and I loved it. We were both smiling at each other like it was the end of the world.

- do you still remember why we were laughing ? - he asked me
- No..I really can't remember. 
- It was because of a joke you said, you were so funny that day. - he laughed for seconds - I still remember what you said.
- " you know what the dogs say to each other in a bar ? " - he tried to sound in the same way of my voice and it made it funnier and everybody stared at him - I asked why and you replied me " dahhh baby, dogs can't be in bars. " and you laughed for long minutes with your eyes closed and clapping really hard. How could I not laugh ?
- I am sorry for being really bad at jokes. - I said ashamed how awful that joke was - I really can't tell jokes in family dinners.
- Don't worry love, Yaser and Zayn are really good with that. - Trisha said smiling. - right love ?
- Right. - Yaser replied - but Chris, I am like you, so don't worry with that.
- I am really awful with jokes, I really don't know how Zayn could be laughing like this with a thing like that. - I kept looking to the picture. Our happiness was so high.
- Maybe because love, right ? - Cameran came in the conversation with the deepest quote.
- You are really excited to know what love is, right ? - Zayn asked.
- No brother but you were laughing because the fact she was happy, it made you happy..right ?
    Zayn looked at him then at me and then at his mom. We never knew if we should talk like adults or pretend he was too young to talk in the way and we needed to shut up.
- Cameran.. - Trisha called him - we could talk about it later.
- Did I say something bad ?
- No love, we weren't just..
- Expecting ?
- ..yes. We weren't thinking you would think that way.
- Zayn teach me good things, right momma ?
- Mom.. - Zayn said - it's not my fault.
- It's alright, as long as this don't get deeper.
- Don't worry, he doesn't think about it.
- Me ? About what ?
- Brother! Do you want to see the city view with me and Chris ?
- YES! yes!
   Zayn made a signal to his mother like if it was a little "sorry, I had to do it or he wouldn't shut up. ". Zayn took us to my room's window, where we could find a better view than in the living room.
- Zayn.. - Cameran said while he was looking at the view from my arms - Chris..
- Yes love ?
- Can I ask you something ?
- Of course.
- Is love a bad thing for you never talk to me about it ?
- No..no..of course it isn't. - Zayn started to say. - it's just you are to young to understand the love between a couple. And there's moments that you totally look like you understand so we just don't know what to say to you.
- But..I know love because of both of you.
- Cameran..what are you trying to say ? - I asked.
- My brother was completely out of his mind when you weren't here, but since you came in, he changed..I can hear his laugh loud when I'm in my bed, I can see him doing two toasts expect of one, I can see smiling when we are at lunch and dinner and every time, he doesn't use the "kill air" anymore and I think..that's love, right ?
- Yes. Brother, you're completely right in what you are saying. - Zayn said as fast as he finished.
   
  I looked at both of them, trying to understand which word would fit perfectly in that moment, which face should I express to make to comfort them. My mind was impressed.
- Chris ? - Cameran started to hug my face - when I grow up, do you think your son will like me ?
- Of course he will!
- You could make one now so I'd still play with him.
- Brother..ok now you are exaggerating. - Zayn took him from my arms - I'm sorry. - he whispered to me smiling.
- No problem babe. - I replied
- See..I didn't say anything bad.
- Cammy..we have that conversation later, ok ?  
  
   A sound in the outside make us look at the door. The front's door opened. I got out of the room to see what was happening and Mrs Francis in the door talking to Trisha. He was sad, sadder than I ever saw him.
