Lovers Crises

CHAPTER 4

Everywhere was dark when I woke up.I just wish this was how I would wake up morning but saddened its evening instead. WoW,I realized I slept through the day when I looked at the wall clock in the living room.It was 5:55 pm already and where the he'll was my mum,that was until I heard snickering coming from the kitchen.

I trudged to the kitchen,my hands in my pockets as I spotted them in my KITCHEN munching on my CHITOS.

"MY GOODNESS,WHAT THE FUCKING HELL ARE YOU TWO DOING IN MY GODDAMN KITCHEN,MUNCHING ON MY LAST ROUND OF CHITOS and where is my mum cause you girls are gonna make me feel sick agaaain"I whimpered sarcastically and wiped a fake tear.

"Izzie,I thought I quite remember her mum saying please keep an eye on my girl for me,I think she's down with the flu or something"Elle mimicked what I think my mum said to her before they both busted into fits of laughter.

"Let me guess"...I placed a hand on my hip and fairly tapped at chin and replied "those were mum's words cause you sounded just like her"I smiled and walked over to them.

We hugged each other as Izzie rubbed my back "I missed you girls soo much,I even forgot you both existed" I joked.

"You wish" they winked my way as I made my way to the refrigerator for a bottle of water.

"We're not that easy to be gotten rid of"they boasted themselves and high fiving each other.

"Oops" my mouth hinged slightly opened and replied them with"my bad" and I begun swaying my hips teasingly as I drowsily walked us back to the living room.I threw myself in to the couch and released a tired sigh.

"Girrrrl..."they slurred teasingly at my position on the couch.I was lying face flat on my stomach trying to get water into my lungs.

"What?"

"You look like sh*t. "

Then we all burst into laughter as tears pooled at the corner of my eyes because I felt perfectly fine but I just felt like going back to bed,can't keep my eyes open.

"Where is she anyways?"I asked.

"Who?"

"My mum"I slurred before cracking one eye open.

"Grocery shopping"they replied in unison,looked at each other and burst into laughter.

That was what I hated about them.They always laughed like clown and that was horribly annoying.

"Dickheads"I managed to say before sleep consumed again,not until I heard them murmur of a 'whatever' as the front door open.

"Wake up Mac,its dinner time"

"Oh" I groaned as Izzie woke me up."am gonna get fat if I continue to sleep like for a week"

She laughed and shrugged her shoulders as I drowsily followed the scent of the delicious food my mum prepared to the kitchen.It's been awhile since she called my friends over for dinner.Yeah she does sometimes,call them over to spend time with me at home.

"I see the soup did take a toll on you,"
Then they all begun to laugh at me as if I posses myself on something,but no my hair looks like a bird's nest that's probably why they're laughing hysterically.

"What's so funny?"

"I added a little something to the soup to make you get enough rest and it worked and I guess you still feel sleepy??"

She made that smiley face again.

"The hell YES".

"Now let's say Grace and dig in"she said before she sat down.

Forgot to let you know,my mum's a bit religious.

I prayed and stuffed my plate full with beef stroganoff alongside with meat balls and a glass of orange juice.

We ate in comfortable silence,the only noises were of the ones made by the cutlery and the dinner plate.We later had  dessert,cleared the dinning table.The girls and I did the dishes and settled on the couch to watch an all new episode of the flash.

As my mum showered,the girls decided to sleep over so we went upstairs and I  gave them a few clothes for them to change into.We settled on my bed and Elle and Izzie turned off the lamp since I made up my mind to sleep in the middle.

My mum came into my room   through the door and covered us with the duvets,bid us goodnight and left the door ajar.I knew why she always did that,when I have nightmares she hates to get stooped by door so she leaves it open so as to come in easily.

I heard Elle snoring lightly ,"great , just great,Izzie are you still up?"

"Yeah, am still up,what's up?"

"Am still having the nightmares and i don't know when it will ever stop"

"It will,eventually,am sure of it. Just stop thinking about it all the time and I know you always blame you self for it.I was there myself, and saw what happened and I won't say I know how you feel.I can never know the extent of how I will feel if lost someone whom I cherished."

The air around us became thick as I thought about what she said.Will I ever stop blaming myself? I wish I can stop thinking about it but it is so soo hard to. Aside from that I had to watch my mother suffer from heartbreak ever since my dad died.

"Thanks for all what you and your family  did for my mum and i over the past year's Izzie.If it was not for your mum,I would probably be still mourning for two.And I would have gone insane."I poured my heart out to her and she had a smile on her face which warmed my heart.

"What are best friends for?"she snuggled closer as  we both fell into a deep slumber,my face full of smiles because I had my best friend here with me from whom I haven't seen over the past week's.
