PART 11

>>Freja<< I follow Marcus into a smaller room down the hall. It’s white with pink details. On the desk lays a little makeup and it reminds me of when I started to become a teenager. Marcus walks over to the bed where a girl with light brown lays sleeping. “Emma”, he whispers and strokes her head. A pair of chocolate brown eyes looks up at us, the same chocolate brown eyes Marcus has. “This is Freja”, Marcus says and nods towards me. “She’s having breakfast with us today”. “Marcus!”, she says irritated and pulls the cover over her face. “I haven’t gotten ready yet and you pull a stranger into my room”. “She doesn’t care Emma”, he says and looks up at me. “Right?”. “Not at all”, I say. “Besides”, Marcus says and pulls the cover off Emma. “I remember when you’d start yelling at me if I didn’t come to wake you up every morning”. Emma jumps out of the bed as Marcus takes a grip of her from the back and spins her around making her laugh. I can’t help but smile, this is a totally new side of Marcus. We all walk downstairs and into the kitchen. “I just gotta use the bathroom”, I say. “Down the hall to the left”, Marcus says and I walk away.

>>Marcus<<
I start preparing breakfast as Emma takes a seat at the table and looks at me with a teasing smile. “What?”, I ask. “I’m just trying to remember last time you brought a girl home”, she says with teasing smile. “I don’t blame you though, she’s cute”. “It’s not like that”. I say quietly. “So you don’t think she’s cute?”, she asks and leans forward on the table. “I mean...”, I say nervously. “Okay fine she’s cute”. Emma starts laughing and I ruffle her hair. “You just wait”, I say. “For what?”, she asks. “To fall in love”, I say quietly. I’m sitting in the car with Freja next to me and Emma in the back. Emma’s Emma she always wants to be the center of attention. “And one time when we lived in Trofors Marcus walked outside and...”, Emma says before I interrupt her. “Okay that’s enough embarrassing stories Emma”, I say and stop the car. “We’re here”. I point at her school and she rolls her eyes at me.jumps out the car. “I’ll pick you up after school”, I say. “No it’s fine”, Emma says nervously. “I’ll walk with my friends”. “But none of your friends lives that way”, I say. “Emma you can trust me”. “I know”, she says and starts walking. “Bye!”. I sigh and look down at the wheel. I glance up at Freja who gives me a nervous smile. “You seem like a good big brother Marcus”, she says and smiles. “Even if she doesn’t see that all the time”. “I try”, I say and look after Emma. “She drives me crazy sometimes but she means everything to me, I’d never let anything bad happen to her”. If you only had figured that out earlier... Freja notices that I get quiet and she puts her hand carefully on my arm. “Is it cheesy?”, I ask and look up into her crystal grey eyes. “No”, she says and shakes her head. “I think it’s sweet”. I feel how her hand moves down my arm and she puts her hand on my and we take a grip around the wheel together. I get this weird feeling when you can’t help but smile, that hasn’t happened in years...but I like it.
