I'm letting go

Chapter 2

I wake up to a familiar ceiling, remembering all that had happened yesterday, I sat up on the couch and looked ahead at the wall in front, I get up noticing a paper and a calendar, tears fill my eyes when I look at the picture my super talented mum drew of the whole family, I could make out the kids faces but my parents faces seemed blurry as tears well up, threatening to fall, I ask my self why I was so stupid and what I was going to do today. It was already 10am which meant school had already started, I hadn't been in school for so many days, it was very rare for an A+ student like me not to be in school,but I didn't care I just walked to the counter in the emergency room and make my self some coffee while telling myself that all this tragedy was my fault, but then a voice in my head said no it wasn't,but since when did I listen to a weird voice coming from my head, I walk out of the basement and to the my room, I just sit down on my cand look out the window, it was my birthday soon, I used to anticipate my birthdays, but now I wish it'll just go away like I never had one, like I didn't exist,like..... I don't know.
I just lay down and stare at the ceiling which was costumised to look like space, and was changing Everytime I blinked, I walk around the mansion till I get to the garden which took me a hell lot of time to find because I kept getting lost in my own house, the hell? I sit down on the soft green grass and admire the flowers, the mansion was very hard to find even though it was talk as fuck because, it was the only building in that lane which gave trees enough space to flex with their height and hide the mansion.
I look at curious children peeking behind the trees to find what's hidden there, they were three in number but one of them seemed ridiculously dirty and tattered, immediately, I remembered how I was yesterday when I came out of the forest.
I know I can't lazy around all day, my siblings don't even know anything of what's going on, so I get up and staggered into the house and suddenly....
"Rinnnggggggggg!"
It was the mum's cellphone she left it on the TV that day, I run towards it and pick it up, I murmured
"Molly"
I answered the call and didn't say anything while my sister kept calling 'mum'
I did not know what to do, how was I going to say that they are dead, and it's all my fault?
I try to cover my ears so I won't listen to Molly's worried voice as she kept ask what was wrong, tears pouring from my eyes and Molly finally said
"Mum,Dad, we're coming home tomorrow"
Oh no, they are gonna hate me
I pace around, biting my fingers and cursing inside me.
I walk upstairs and downstairs multiple times and then my eyes caught something shiny, I walk into my room and open a pink box, it was the box where I kept all my parents necklace gifts, I usually got on my birthdays. I felt a sharp pain in my left chest, I look at the clock as I winced, it was already sunset and I was super hungry.
I walk downstairs to the basement again, I grab a bag of crunchy chips and turn on the flat screen TV, I look around and sink into the couch and mutter to myself
"I hate my life"

Ok for real I hate myself for not publishing this book quickly, I feels so bad for making it so short and hiring but I promise the next chapter will be better.
Thanks
