We are there on December 31, New Year's Day, the day when we foresee things that we will probably never do , or after five minutes, who knows. I get up watching the time at 8:30 a.m. , I'm on vacation and I find a way to get up early, I must be cursed, on school days I will be able to get up at 10 a.m. and holidays not. I turn myself in all directions trying to get back to sleep, but nothing works, after a while I hear a noise coming from below, I get up and head to the source of the noise to all the blows, it's my father and Miranda who gets up, I'm going down to say hello, I hear them talking, but I'm far enough to understand what they say, I arrive in the living room and I see that they have their coat
- Hello, I said
He turns to me and smiles at me
- Hello Emma, my father and Miranda tell me
I wonder what they are dressed like that, they go somewhere, but my father seems to read my mind, because it tells me
- We are going to pick up Riley at the station and we come back It takes me a few minutes to remember that Riley , this is Stewart and Ben's cousin , I acquire and head towards the kitchen to have breakfast, my father come a few minutes after me in the kitchen
- Emma, can I talk to you for thirty seconds ?
I don't know what he wants to say to me, but I have the impression that it will annoy me , but I accept
- So there you are, your mother called me , to hear from you, because you don't overdo it, apparently and she would like you to come back sooner than expected, he admits sadly
Wait what !, Mom wants me to come home sooner but why, but my father is not finished
- She said you take the plane mid-January, as was expected based, that thou mayest you concentrate on your studies, he said
I fall above me who thought I'll stay longer to spend time with Liam, I cheated e , since my mother has planned my return home, I'm a little sad because it wants to say that he I have only two weeks left , so my father turns to me and says to me this time :
- We're going to find Riley , see you later. Not really having the password to meet him I am a wave in response, here I thought my day will pass well, I just heard this terrible news, and I do not know how to tell Liam , I will not tell him today because it is still New Year's Day and I would not want to spoil his day, but I hear noise on the stairs, someone goes down I turn to see who it is, and it's only Stewart , who still looks a little tired, I look at the hour 9:25 am , I say to him :
- Hi, so slept well ?
He looks at me and takes the time to focus on what I asked him
- Yes, very good and you ? he said yawning
I smile at him and answer him
- Very good too
- Oh well, the parents left to pick up your cousin at the station
I see that he looks up suddenly and turns to me with a smile
- Riley , is she really coming ? Does he ask?
- Yes, that's what they told me this morning
He's overjoyed, I wonder how long he has n't seen him
- I thought it was a joke, but it tears up, he said
Well at least someone is happy with this start to the day, in fact I plan to touch two words to my mother, for my stay here, but footsteps are heard in the steps of stairs, I think that this time it's Ben. He goes down rubbing his eyes and looks at his brother who is overjoyed and looks at me then says to me
