Falling Twice

Chapter 2

Walking back to living room I see Lee sitting on the couch well if I had to put her exact doings in words then that'd be 'digging the extreme left of the couch'

"Why would you want to make a hole in our couch lee? You know it did cost us a living"

I made myself comfortable on the couch when a sudden unknown force acted upon me pushing me right next to lee and making himself comfortable. I glanced at Jase

"What? Now you don't expect me to sit next to her, do you?"

"See? I'm smarter than you think Zoe, there was a reason I
was digging holes in our couch because If I wasn't there would have been holes in my body by now" Lee stated with a smirk on her face.

"Jase could you please be kind enough to be vocal about what you want to be done and not just push and pull people, for the hundredth time Jase I am not your buddy from muddy so quit pushing me"

"Alright I'll try remembering it the next time now don't go all grandma on me. So shall we start with our movie night?"

"If I'd say no than you wouldn't make us watch it?" I asked with hope lacing up my vocals

"No" Jase plainly replied

"Thought so"

Jase was now engrossed in the remote

"So did he now confess his feeling for you Zoe?" My one and only hushed

"Lee can you not let this rest? I mean you know there's nothing that sort of between us we're just friends"

"Bullshit, He fudging has feelings for you I can see that and you know how good I am with reading people"

As I was about to reply to Lee Jase jumped in our conversation, Sweet Jase

"Can you girls not act like girls for some time? It's our movie night so let's watch and not disturb"

"Oh shut up Jasey It's not like we're willingly sitting here you've forced this on us also what do you want to concentrate so much on? Like I would have shut my mouth if we were watching Sherlock Holmes but we're just watching Johnny Bravo so cut the crap"

"No Zoe, Keeping is IQ into consideration he needs to concentrate for it too" Lee said

"You're such a disgrace in my life Pee"

"God, Jesus No Jase what on earth is Pee"

...

The movie nights are never actually movie nights for my customized family. It's always we arguing and Lee eating as movie nights are the only time the food is on Jase.

I am now sitting in my room wondering where am I actually getting with my life. All I'm doing is running away, running away from my past, my reality, from who I actually am. Only if mom was still here with me to guide me through it. The way she've always done my thought were interrupted

*knock knock*

"Zoe can I come in? never mind I'm coming" Definitely Lee

"I still wonder why you even care knocking."

"It's called manners duh"

"The why don't you wait until I let you in?'

"Because I'm your best friend as simple as that"

"Funny, so what makes you come here?"

"Well you know we have our college tomorrow and you even know that how good I am at presentations like there's not a single moment where I don't make a fool out of myself so I was just thinking that maybe you act as an audience and help me for tomorrow"
