Toxic Colors

Chapter Three

Some how Ninas life just flew by. The job was doing great. She helped acomplish buildings in just over the course of a few months. All that lifting she has been doing makes her feel stronger. Lifting of wood, reaching of nails, heavy lifting. It makes her feel more human.

Nathans light spirit is like drinking a coffee in the morning. Refreshing. Kayla would blabber of how happy she is for Nina. But Kayla also gleets of her job. A nurse. Rich. And not willing to share. Oh well, Nina can handle paying half of the rent. She loves her sister to death, but also feels like she's going crazy with her.

Nina closes her journal as the leather covering rubs against her skin as she puts it under her fluffy pillows.

She feels like singing! Dancing. She feels great. Even all of her past is still creeping up behind her. Her mother gone, and her father, her siblings. But she feels good. She's going to continue till her dreams come true. But not those nightmares. But enough about that! Those were forever ago.

The light spirit girl hops to the kitchen to get a snack. Glad it's her day off to relax. In her view, her sister is reading a book and eating her favorite. Scrambled eggs with light salt.

Her delicate hair fluffs as she tilts her head to look at her sister. She smiles at her younger sister.

"Hey!" Kayla starts, "you look like you are in a good mood."

"Haha, yeah. I'm just happy. With my job and my place in life." Nina giggles.

"That's great!" She says, chewing a piece of eggs.

"What about you? Are you happy?"

"I am. My job is nice. Alex is helping me around alot."

Alex is Kaylas boyfriend. The one thing Nina can think is that she's going to live together soon....

"I'm happy for you." Nina says as she heads to the fridge and gets a cup of coffee.

The warm mug heats her hands as just the smell starts waking the happy young woman up. Her body moves by her sister, giving her a smile, Entering her room.

In the corner, she sets her mug on her wooden table and starts making her bed, trying to make her room somewhat clean. She remembers her mother always bugging her to make her bed. Her hands slow and movements stop with the memories coming back.

She sits on the corner of the half made bed and remembers younger her.

"Mom!" Younger Nina yells as she runs up to her gorgeous mother.

"Nina." She says back, hugging her, not as tight.

Behind Nina, her father and his brown hair and blue eyes meet Ninas big gray eyes.

"Daddy!!" Nina yells more excited as he holds out his arms, picking her up and throwing her small body on his shoulders, Nina squealing the whole way.

After Danny, Ninas father, puts his child down. Kayla come also. Sarah, there mother squeals at Kaylas presents, and Sarah tightly squeezes there older child.

"I've missed you so much." Sarah whispers in Kaylas ear, after both of them coming back from there grandparents for the summer.

Little Nina thought why her mother acted different to her sister then with her. But she was glad she always had her papa.

And her mother.

°•○○•°

Ninas cloudy gray eyes get stained with salt water, as a tear drips down her chilled cheek. Nina now relized why her mother acted that way. Her mother appreciate her perfect sister way more.

She takes her shaky hand and wipes away her tears.

It's okay. Nina thinks. They still loved me.

About six years ago, the siblings mother passed away. The classic drunk drive and car accident.

Less then a year later, there father. Cancer. Lung cancer, second hand smoking.

Can you believe that?? Other people smoking around him is what got him killed.

Nina takes a deep breath. It's not there fault. It's no body's fault.

Nina breaths deeply once again. The girl never been angry or mad at anything. Always light spirited as she always tried her hardest.

But she couldn't keep her tears from falls from the missing of there parents. What happened to her good mood from this morning?

---

The day passes by, droopy. Suprisingly. She decides to go on youtube and watch cat videos to lighten her mood. L
Fluffy critters pass by, batting a cat toy on Nina small screen phone.

The closest she got was a little uplifting curl on her pale pink lips. But it seems like no matter how many youtube videos Nina watching snuggled up in her fluffy white blankes.

Maybe all she needs is to go back to work with her light spirited coworker.

She finishes her second cup of coffee and feels drowsy. In some weird impossible universe, the young girl with two cups of coffee in her system, falls asleep.

--

The weekend flys by as it's Monday again for her to begin work once again.

Her morning starts out early. 8 am. Well at least it's not her old job. At 6 in the mornin! How is it even that humanly possible to wake up at that time?

Slowly, Nina arrives at her work.

They hyper non serious Nathan greets her. His energy is trying to change the atmosphere but for some reason she doesn't feel any better.

Why do I feel this way? Nina thinks to her self the whole day.

Some how this will change.
