"Okay so the word for today
                      " let it go the past is in the past"

"Vanessa!!!" Louis shouted behind my room door  bringing me back to reality.

"Yes?" I jumped answered,startled, realizing  my tears stained cheeks, wiping at it with my palm "I'm coming I said standing up, I opened the door a and he entered.

" Are you okay?" Louis shot me a questioning look.

"Sure why wouldn't I be" I forced a smile, trying as much as possible to make it believable although I knew he was not that stupid to buy it and he definitely won't let it go.

"Well I've been knocking for like about thirty minutes now and u didn't answer" he said in a duh tone.

"I...I erm, I was dressing up"

"Yeah right for how long" he said walking closer to me,finally tearing his eyes from mine and looking at me up and down still coming closer" isn't this the same outfit you wore yesterday?"

"I-"

"When mum made you eat breakfast, what's wrong with you?" Now he was increasing his voice making me startle a little.

"I..." Say something anything why aren't I hearing anything why isn't he still talking?
I looked up at him just to see some one I don't think I've seen before and will never believe if someone told me it's Louis
His eyes were field with sympathy, the kind I have never known him for, he took a step closer to me and before I knew what was going on I was in his arms crying in anguish.

"It's okay you can let it out, Louis is here" he was rubbing my back and talking to me like he was talking to a five year old"and he is your brother to be precise,so_"

"No he is not" I said in the mist of tears.

" yes he is "he argued

Actually he isn't that's the truth. I had only stayed here for not up to two weeks now and all ye ever did was make me feel so I'm inferior,like I'm intruding his family lifetime. I had not even stepped my feet out of this room and I wasn't ready to. I really miss my town brother Jayden and he is the only twin brother l have. Louis can go rot in hell for all I care, no wait he shouldn't he look like a nice guy.

I finally pulled back from him, I went to my bed and took my teddy, Jayden and cuddled it close to my chest I could still smell the sweet aroma of melted chocolate  syrup and pan cake on it


                    ********

" Janea, look I won this just for you" Jayden said handing over to me a blue stuffed puppy.

"OMG!!!" I took it from him and hugged it tightly "it's blue my favorite colour and animal I love it" I said in a high pitch voice "and scene" I dropped the act "acting like you like something is so exhausting like seriously I'm ten now and that means I'm way too old for this" I gestured at the stuffed animal I was holding.

"Look who is saying way too old" he said with a mocking laughter "you still sleep with the night light on" he said that out loud causing me to cover his mouth.

"No I do not" I argued like a five year old looking around to make sure no one was watching us.

"Yes you do"
