I wake up to the smell of eggs. Such a unique, quite repulsive smell. I saunter to the kitchen and hold my nose, Lyric chuckles and points to the table where a beautiful plate of crepes sit. While I pour the jam I hear loud footsteps enter, he kisses Lyric goodbye and ruffles my bed head. I'm joined by a grinning Lyric who is going on about the "date". I focus on the delicious breakfast in front of me, it's my favorite. My sister used to cook them every morning when I was little, she would call me her little crepe and laugh when I scrunched my face up at the silly name. Now...now id give anything to hear it one last time. I feel the tears come to my eyes and quickly blink them back, not being quick enough, one rushes down my face. I look over at Lyric who's focus is still on the planner beside her full plate. Thank the Lord she didn't notice. I clear my throat and nod to the plate when she looks up. She shrugs and takes a few bites before going on about her wedding plans. I swear she never stops.
" Wanna go try on bridesmaid dresses with me and Louise?" Louise is Thomas's half sister, she's a laugh to be around. I smile and nod, receiving a sequel.
"It's so soon Lydell. Im getting so so nervous."
"Things will be great. More than great. They'll be PERFECT," I laugh, as we stand up. She hits my shoulder and takes the plates to the sink. Turning on the old radio we sing along, doing dishes, dancing like fools, and unknowingly being strong for the other.
