Perfect From Afar

I woke up to pure darkness and the sound of breaking glass. Oh no, Mom loves her China, I can't have mom mad at me! I get out of bed, check the time to see its midnight, not ready to take on a robber, or anyone like that. I step over the dress and heels trying not to twist my ankle. I grab a steak knife from my room, don't ask why it's there. I don't even know, probably because I eat in my room. I also grab my iPhone as a flashlight because without it, I will probably get shot. I'm not the most poised girl ever.

I climb down the long staircase pausing every so often. I hear screaming along with the sounds of broken plates. My hands are trembling, can I do this? The knife is loose in my hand and I take a step closer to the kitchen. As I do that the knife drops causing the robber to look at me. I study his face, my iPhone flashlight probably blinding him. His face is one I can never forget, it's mine in a boys version.

"Ethan?!" I screech before running upstairs and locking the door, making sure that it's locked so hard a bobby pin can't get through. Ethan used to break in my room with a bobby pin, I hated it.

"Baby sister?" He tries for the third time, each with a different name. But why would I open the door for him? He left me.

"Go away," I screamed while crying, he left me. "And I came out of the womb only 15 minutes behind you."

I slide my back down the wood door bawling my eyes out. My best friend and brother left me because a stupid argument he and my father had. No goodbyes, nothing. I hated him! He should just leave. I get up only to hear Ethan jiggling the lock. I laughed quietly to myself, he can't get in no matter how hard he tries. I lay on my bed, it has been about two minutes of his failed attempts to get in.

Suddenly, the door opens. I see Ethan's face once again.

After what seems like a while of staring he finally speaks. "Please let me explain."

"NO!" I scream before ducking my head under my pillow.

"Fine," he huffed, "but sooner or later I'll be back and you'll have to hear me out."

"I choose later," I say and I watch him walk out of my room. I wait until after I hear his Range Rover leave before going back to bed.
