Day 10, the day I saw him laying on the ground still, a body filled with secrets, I had just gotten back from my teen models trip round the country, just to get back with the rain falling and hitting two shady figures with my new car, my mom and twin were answering the police, so no one seemed to have heard me come in. I fall on my knees and start sobbing, my twin seems to have seen me, but everything fades in and out, I faint.
I have the weirdest dream possible seems like I'm in Deja vu, I see my dad struggling with two teenage boys or I think that's what they are, they have extremely sharp features, my dad says something but I can't hear admist the chaos, there's a loud bang, blood drips. He is on the ground. Me and my twin wake up screaming
"Same dream" ? I ask,
She nods and says, "we have to be strong for her"
I immediately understand, my mom was one of the quietest and most scared human on the planet, on a regular day she'd call dad like 5 times to protect her from flimsy things like ants and spiders, she was never the bravest one in all of us. No wonder we were relocating to the country side, that way less stress, she reckons there's a good school over there. We don't object cause we can't bear her breaking down.
"Let's go for breakfast, before we start packing off to be country girls" Rapha says.
I snigger at that, she throws a pillow at me, we start our daily tradition of pillow fighting.
Rapha, my sister, protector and best friend, she is the scientist in the house, all time queen of introverts with extremes of sarcasm and truth talk.
We head down to breakfast, we smell the sweet savour of the glorious meal on the table, my mom the all time cook of the neighborhood, which takes me to the time when this French chef came by one day asking for my mum's formula to creating the right breakfast. She gave him although he got an insolent glare from my dad, cause he was trying to use his French, according to dad, to swoon my mum. What a beautiful memory.
"So, hope you had a nice night and beautiful dreams" ?
Rapha and I look at each other.
"Yes mum" we both respond.
"And how was your night mum" ? Asks Rapha
"Absolutely splendid" she replies
We both get our plates filled to the top, and dig in.
"What's up Gabrielle, you don't seem like your caffeinated chatty self this morning"?
"Nothing mum, just a slight headache" I reply.
"Hope you girls are all packed" ?
We both grin,
She Tut Tut's us and says we should be ready before 12 noon.
