The magic keeper

Chapter 5: Home

"Home, sweet home!"

I said as I walked through the door of the house I missed so much.

"Really, there is no place like home." My mom said.

"Everything is just so dirty here!" Of course, this one was from David.

I rolled my eyes and said:

"Of course everything is dirty, it's been two years since we last came here."

But he didn't answer.

********************

We had lunch and rested, it was a long flight.

"We should go visit your aunt yolla." My dad suggested.

"Good idea, let's go now." Mom said.

"But mommm, I was just about to call my friends, school is after a week, and every minute is precious." David, of course.

Actually, I didn't think this way. I was a good student, and didn't have troubles at school. Neither do David, he wasn't a bad boy or

something, but he studies a lot more than I do, so school is hell for him. But me and my friends always go out (at least we used to in

New York, but I don't think this will change) and I don't have troubles with my studies.

"Today is Tuesday, and school begins on Thursday, so there is more than a week. Your alibi doesn't count. Stop acting childish and

come. Let's go."

"But.."

"David!"

He eventually gave up. It took him a few minutes, but he gave up. On our way to the door, he mumbled something like 'fuck school'. I

gave him a glare but he didn't respond.
