Emilia’s POV
“Can I at least get a kiss goodbye?” Mom asks from behind me. I stay turned around, say nothing, and simply shake my head. No.
“Alright, fine. Look, I’m sorry that I have to do this, I don’t want to do it any more than you want me to.” She explains sympathetically, sitting down next to me on the bed, I scoot over away from her. She sighs. “I’ll be back before you know it. Stay out of trouble.” She walks over silently to my brother’s bed. “Be good for your sister, okay kiddo?” He nods, and she leaves.
Once I hear the crunch of gravel, and the rev of the engine indicating mom had left, I frown. I know that she didn’t want to leave, and I feel bad about not giving her a kiss goodbye. I should’ve kissed her. I flop onto my bed, shoving my face in my pillow.
Ugh, why didn’t I say goodbye? Why? Why? Why? I think pummeling my pillow with every word.
My brother, Jackson, walked out of the room. “You want a sandwich?” He asks me, leaning on the doorframe. His blond head barely reaching the middle of the frame.
I think for a second. My stomach growls in response. “Nah. Thanks Jackie.” I respond turning my head around to look at him. Maybe some deprivation will teach me to be nicer to my mother. I DO love her. But we were gonna watch a family movie with pizza tonight, but instead she has to go to some Goddamn meeting. Again!
Jake comes back into the room, scarfing down a PB&J with blackberry jam-my favorite. “So, what do you want to do buddy?” I ask as I stand up and walk over to his bed. I sit down at the foot of the bed, stretching out and pushing him with my arms, fake yawning.
“Heyyy! Emilia, that’s not fair!” He whines, laughing. “Go to your own damn bed!”
“Hey!” I say, hitting him. “Don’t let mom hear you say that.” I scold.
“Sorry Em.” He apologizes, looking down at his sandwich.
“It’s alright Jackson. So, you never answered my question. What do you want to do?” I comfort him patting his back.
“A movie?” He pipes up, hopeful.
“Sure buddy.”
