I don't exactly know why I would even consider telling her what happened to my childhood. Something about her just tells me that I can trust her. Up till now, I've only told Sabrina and Irene my past. And I've also rant about stuff to Jamie but those were more general, like school and stuff.
We got to Starbucks and found a table easily since everyone was at the one beside our school. She sat down while I went to buy us our coffee. We both started those really awkward ice breakers like favourite colour, food, clothes. Yup I'm that bad at making friends. But the surprising thing was that she didn't seem to mind. We continued the awkwardness for about an hour until I lost patience again.
"So what exactly happened to you? Why were you in the bathroom crying?" Her usual smile faltered. She couldn't bring it back too. She stood up and said softly,
"Can we not talk about this here?" She was staring at the floor, unable to look up. I agreed and asked where she wanted to go. She said,
"Your house."
What?! My house... yea sure my brother had gotten better but it was still littered with cans of beer. And it reeked of alcohol. No way would she want to go there, right?
"Umm...well. My house is kinda...messy?" In truth 'messy' didn't even begin to describe it. It was more like a tornado had blown through it. It had been almost a week since my brother started to change. There had been progress, but ya know. Baby steps.
"I don't mind." She said almost too happy. Let's see about that...
On the way to my house, we kept talking about random stuff but somehow. She managed to make everything linked with Fifth Harmony. When we got to my house she gawked at it. It wasn't that big to be honest. Two floors. A living room, kitchen, and a room I could use as my 'reading corner in the first floor. And 6 rooms on the second floor.
I told her to sit on the couch while I tried to clean up a little. As I was clearing the rubbish she told me what happened.
"Well after I left with her that day they kept telling me things about you. Like how your the school's ice queen and you'd never be friends with me. The days after that I realised that willow and I had a lot of things in common. I changed my pencil case today and they were convinced that I was trying to copy willow. Even Willow herself said so. Then they kicked me out of their 'group'." She was starting to tear up so I went over and gave her the whole tissue box. What? You never know how much you'll need.
"Ok...but that still doesn't completed explain why you were locked in the bathroom, and your clothes for that matter." I eyed her from across the table while trying to clean whatever mess was under there. And let me tell you it ain't pretty.
"Well, they kinda stopped talking to me yesterday. But today they told me to go to the bathroom because they had a surprise for me. I didn't want to believe them at first but Casey was so persistent, and Mindy seemed so sincere. So I went with them. There, Willow was waiting for me... and then...-" I walked over and cut her off with a hug. I really didn't know how to comfort people properly but Irene said that this was fine the last time I comforted her about something. By this time she was already crying full force on my shoulder. I just hoped my brother wouldn't hear her and come storming down.
------time skip abt 1 hour------
"Thanks for everything Luna." She said one last time before I closed the front door to lock myself in a seemingly empty house. I looked at the living room, at least that's clean. More or less.
I checked the time, 6.30pm. Oh no! I forgot about dinner! I rushed to the kitchen to whip something up fast for my Brother. Just as I was about to go and wake home up...
"Awwww my dongseang is still keeping her end of the bargain. How nice." He smirked at me.
"Well your keeping your end too so it's only fair." I answered matter-of-factly.
He just walked over and plopped himself down on the chair and started eating. But what he said next took me by surprise.
"I heard your conversation with your new Friend ya know. And I have to say, you really have grown up."
