I knew it was Jacob, part of me didn't wanted to invite him in but I knew, I cannot ignore him forever. So, I let him in.
He stood, in front of me giving the creep look. I knew, he was about to explode anytime soon.
So, I said "Okay, maybe I shouldn't have left like this"
"Maybe, are you serious right now?" Jacob said furiously.
I said "well I know I made a mistake, I shouldn't have scared you like this, and I am, um I am sorry"
He sat beside me on my bed and said "you are my little sister,"
I cut him by saying "yeah, only by 15 minutes"
He sighed and said "yeah whatever, that still makes me older than you, and I care for you Skye, that is why I get worried if you like, go somewhere without informing me first. And Can you even imagine, how I felt when I saw you with that Noah guy you know how much I despise him. And not to mention you kissed him. I didn't say anything because it was on the cheek, but, I swear if I ever see you kiss him again, I am gonna shoot him and I swear I will do that.""Okay, I won't do that again with Noah,"
Jacob raised an eyebrow and said "Not Noah, and definitely not any other boy"
I sighed "Yes, Mom,"But I still remember, he was hiding something, something big and I need to find that out . But I didn't wanted to ruin our moment now, so I let that go for now. We sat by my window and we talked all night, and I told him how I went to Noah's to avoid him. He got a little angry, but then again it was fine he understood.
[The Next Day]
We were all sitting in the breakfast table. Then I said "I know about the oath so it is just about time you guys tell me about it, or I swear I am gonna leave the house and move in with Belle and will never talk to you guys"Jacob dropped the sandwich from his hand.
And Mom and Dad were giving each other looks.Then they finally spoke and Mom said "Skye, my beloved daughter I love you with everything I have and you know that if we are keeping something from you, it is for your own good. We will never do anything to hurt you, and the less you know about the family oath the better it is for you."
I stood from my chair and yelled at top of my voice "IF IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH ME WHY NOT JUST TELL ME? WHY HIDING IT FROM ME, WHAT GOOD WILL IT DO TO ME IF WE JUST KEEP SECRETS FROM EACH OTHER."
And I stormed off to my room and slammed the door behind me. I knew I had to go somewhere to keep my mind stable, so I thought of going to the garden. I sneaked off from my bedroom window, and went to my favourite place the garden of peace.
It was a beautiful garden, with birds chirping in distance, and I could hear the waterfall from the bench. I sat in the bench for a while, and it did some good to me I did calm down. Now that I had loads of time to process things going on. I began to think.
First the family oath, it has something to do with me? But what can that possibly do anything with me? I know where I will get the answers to my questions from.
