Ezekiel's POV
"dinner is ready! Let's eat everybody." My mother announced.
Finally! I will get away from my sister. She's making me cry for an hour already. She just don't give up.
well, we're the same sister. That's why she didn't succeed in her plan.
I quickly stood up and went to the dining area.
"Hey! You didn't turn off the TV!" Caeleah shouted.
"Let it be, I'll still use it later." I said, not looking back.
When I sat on the chair and looked at the table I can't help but to love my mom more. I know that she knows that I'm not okay so she's trying to comfort me the way a good mother would. I can't help but to feel comfortable, at ease and at home.
I can't help but to smile at my mother genuinely, I really love her for being so understanding.
I ate like a cave man, showing my mother that her comforting works at me.
"hey, eat slowly will you? You don't want to choke to death don't you?" My sister said.
I swallowed the food before answering.
"I'm sorry, I just missed eating my favorite." I smiled at her too. I feel light at the moment. Thanks to my mom.
I burped after eating. I ate a lot.
"Excuse me." I said after burping.
we all laughed afterwards.
"I'm done eating, I'll be upstairs." I said then stood up.
"alright. goodnight son. Sleep well." My father said as I kissed their foreheads.
I don't get it why other men feels ashamed of kissing their father's forehead, for me it's the greatest respect that I could give them.
"Goodnight brother. I'll try again tomorrow." She winked at me.
I only rolled my eyes on her.
"You can try all you want Cae." I said then I kissed her forehead.
I walked to my mother
"Goodnight mom, thank you." I whispered to her as I kiss her forehead.
"No worries son, everything will be alright."
I only smiled at her then I started walking to the living room, fixing up the things that I used then went up stairs. Then Suddenly I heard something.
"The bluetooth device is connected successfully."
My forehead creased until a song starts to play.
And being here without you is like I'm waking up to
So your friend's been telling me
You've been sleeping with my sweater
And that you can't stop missing me
Bet my friend's been telling you
I'm not doing much better
'Cause I'm missing half of me
Only half a blue sky
Kinda there but not quite
I'm walking around with just one shoe
I'm half a heart without you
I'm half a man at best
With half an arrow in my chest
I miss everything we do
I'm half a heart without you
Half a heart without you
I'm half a heart without you
Though I try to get you out of my head
The truth is I got lost without you
And since then I've been waking up to
"Caeleah! Arrrrgghhhh!" I only heard her laugh.
I searched for the bluetooth speaker but I can't find it! Caeleah is good at hiding.
I only sighed and finally let myself cry.
I miss her so much. It's like I can't even breathe.
Caeleah succeeded after all.
