The week past through and nothing processed, Erinn still doing her shit, the group still being a bunch of unruly kids, Jordan sleeping over more than being at her place. I don't mind though I need the company.
But its been draining though I feel like I'm on my last string of strength. So too make myself better and seeing as no one is home I decide to spoil myself by freely being myself with anyone here to watch me.
I bust out the cake pans and get to baking. Baking makes my relax but now it brings back memories too. Memories of my mom baking in our matchbox apartment, me chasing my siblings around the place and eating the batter with them.
I walk over to the low counter and take a sip of my drink with a sad smile.

Luca"Quickly Evie, I got to get there early!" She comes out grumbling bossy under her breath.
"I just don't understand why you have to get a job Luca," I get in behind the wheel and rub my face in frustration. I look at her through the rearview mirror." We can't keep living like this and I need to pay for the bills quicker. We've been through this before."
Throughout the ride she sulks while looking out the window. I don't like this either leaving her alone but Max got me a job a good one and I can't past this up not if I wanna give Evie a better life.
A nine year old like her shouldn't be going through life like she is. I put my focus on the directions Max gave me, shortly I pull up in front of a freaking mansion.
Woah! I knew he was loaded but this.
We get out and I see how Evie is struggling to keep her excited at bay. I smile down at her watching her for a moment. Its not everyday I take her somewhere new.
She looks back at me from the front porch," Well, come on bro-ey I wanna see how it looks on the inside." I chuckle under my breath and walk up to the door. I knock on it but no one seems to hear it.
I frown and look over to see Evie shifting from foot to foot." Looks like no one home," I sigh and turn to leave when I hear the door open. I turn around just in time to see my sister slip through.
Oh no! Shoot, Evie that not right!
I follow suit and nearly lose my damn mind at how the house looks like on the inside. I spot Evie doing mini turl, she see my racing towards here and takes off." Evie we don't just run into other peoples homes, have I taught you nothing!" I whisper yell at here afraid the owner of the house might heard us.
She giggles and slips through a set of glass doors." Why, you little nasty..." my voice trails off when I see my sister has come to a stop and why.
There she sits brushing her powder blue hair over her shoulder,it reaches down and brushes the top of be behind and she looks out the window. She has a boho look going on with a lose T-shirt knotted above her belly and a long blue flower printed skirt, with a bare feet sticking out from under it.
She hasn't spotted us yet.
I swear my life has a sick way of twisting my words. Here's the girl that hasn't left my mind since I last saw here sitting right in front of me. Is this really fate or a darn prank.

LuminaWhile deep in my memories I hear a small squeak. My head snap towards the sound a little girl stands before me not older than what 8 or 9. I stand up and look at her curiously.
