And Then One Day

11:22 am

You walk through the kitchen, smoke swirling off the new black walls. The smell of smoke reassures you that this really happened. The fire men are just leaving and mom is calling everyone about the news. Not just the news about the fire. You walk to your room with a smile. At least this didn't get burnt down. Your hands trail over the furniture and your eyes catch a gimps of the faded paper. The top picture was a picture of a monster dragging a little girl away. You tilted your head, looking at the picture."I was a weird kid," you whisper to yourself. You felt strange, knowing this drawing resembled a lot of your dreams. You immediately rip the stack in half. You walk down the hall, ready to throw your old memories away.  You see mom come in wet." Its raining out," she says.

You put a grin on your face,"really?" You run outside. You haven't felt rain in years. You haven't felt rain since the accident. You dance in the downpour, laughing at how free you felt. Suddenly, you throw the drawing pieces to the ground and stomp them in the mud."Corrine," you hear a familiar voice ask in question."Brody!" You run to him and hug him. He kisses your forehead," I missed you so much. I felt guilty leaving you on your birthday. I realized that no girl could fill the love I have for my sister. So to answer your question you asked many years ago in the pool, I would love you even though you changed. I would be there for you, because I know that you would need me. I'm sorry it took so long for me to tell you this and act on it. And now you are better and its too late to show I mean it. I'm glad you're back, and I'm sorry it took so for me to be back." He says sincerely. You stay silent in his arms. For once it was  a good kind of silence. You know exactly what question he was talking about. You know your memories will never turn into nightmares again. You are free.
