"Wow, you called, I am blown away." Silas voice broke through the speaker on my phone a few seconds after he answered the call with me staying silent on the other end.

He picked on the third ring, I was already almost calling the idea of giving him a call a bad idea when he picked.

I still think it's a bad idea.

"I have a phone dummy, I can calk when I feel like." I snapped back in reply to his observing drawl.

"Sometimes, you act like you don't when you ignore perfectly good looking humans who were only calling to check up on you." He shot back.

I puffed out a breath with an eye roll.

Silas is such a baby.

"At least I'm the one doing the calling now, be happy." I reminded him as I stared wearily into the cup of hot steaming cocoa on the glassy transparent table before me while I sat by it with legs folded underneath me, the table reaching just below my br

    "You don't sound happy about that." I remarked, trying not to sound like I wanted to hear the reason why he doesn't want them home."That's cause I'm not." He replied drily."Duh, I figured." I stated with an eye roll."Good for you." He replied sarcastically."Anyways, I just wish we could switch places, my parents can be too much sometimes." He explained."I wanna switch places too, I miss my parents, it feels so empty here without them here."It wouldn't have been so empty if you didn't kill your baby brother.And, like that, I could feel myself already spiralling into another depressing state."Stop over thinking things, this woman." He chastised mildly.A sigh escaped my lips."I'm not over thinking." I tried denying."You are. And quit sighing every minutes too."

    What am I supposed to wear now?"Wear something light." Silas words echoed in my head.I sighed in irritation and confusion.It's 03:34pm, and I haven't the slightest idea of what to wear.Urg! This is so stressful.Why didn't I ask him to be more specific yesterday when he said I should wear something nice.Instead, I replied stupidly when I didn't even know what to get dressed in.What's the definition of "something light" in the first place?Hm, let's see...Singlets Camisoles Crop topsSleeveless dressesShortsSmall skirtsSummer dressesKnee length shortsSleeveless topsSpaghetti topsShivon?Nets Bla

    The sound of the running engine finally going quiet made me let out a relieved sigh as I held unto Silas arm before carefully hopping off the back seat and releasing my tight hold on his biceps.He pulled the head helmet off his head and threw it in the air twice while making them twirl in the air before coming down into his outstretched palms before turning sideways to give me a cocky look."So, how was the ride?""Horrible. You were going too fast and didn't even consider the fact that I might fall off each time you take a u - turn or a curve." I paused to take in deep breaths as I tried unbuckling the stupid head helmet still pressing down on my curls."It was horrible." I finally managed to unbuckle the head helmet, pulling it away from my head carefully to avoid my wig from following suit before stretching my hand out with the head helmet clutched in it."Here's your head helmet."

    "I used to believe in wishes too, but not anymore." I explained to him, my fingers still playing with my toes languidly."Why would you think that?" He inquired, sounding intrigued as ever, his whole attention focused on me.I stayed quiet for some time, my busy fingers now clasped together on my tights before puffing out a deep breath."I once had a baby brother." The piece of information slipped out quietly."He was everything." I went on, the words coming out smoothly from nowhere.Silas remained quiet, trying not to break the serene blanket of silence that suddenly surrounded us, only the far away sounds of people enjoying themselves and having fun resounded."And now, he's gone." My voice almost broke on this exact sentence but I forcefully swallowed it down, trying not to break down.The cold memories tried to rush in but I managed to block it out, n

    I shivered again as another whiff of cold surrounded us again, my spaghetti handed gown seeming so useless in a place like this."Maybe." I muttered as I wove my hands around my body."Not maybe, go for a check up." He rephrased."I'll think about it." I informed him."No. Alright, how about I come pick you up tomorrow, then we'll go to the hospital tomorrow to know what's really wrong. How's that sounding?" He purposed, changing tactics altogether.Another outing with Silas!Sike!A feeling of giddiness swelled in my head but I tried not to dwell too much on it as I reminded myself that it was only to go get treatments for me and nothing else.Not like it worked anyways."It sounds alright, I guess. You'd come pick me up?" I decided to ask instead, praying my excitement wouldn't be so obvious."Great. Whi

    A young man, probably in his early twenties came forward and handed Silas the key to his Power bike, I didn't even know the key was given to a valet in the first place.He thanked the man with me managing to offer him a small smile and a nod before having to wear the not so sexy head helmet.The ride home was different than the one we shared firstly while coming here in the first place."Bend slightly whenever you sense me trying to make a curve, and I don't mean you should lean all the way, just slightly. Try not to sit too stiffly and also if I end up going to fast, just hold unto me, it's no biggie, now is it? It's for your own safety after all." He explained after helping me buckle the smaller head helmet on my head.I nodded my head in understand, looking a little forward the the ride home. Maybe it wouldn't be too bad.Placing both my hands on his shoulders, I lifted myse

    I picked Chelsea up and cuddled her in my arms as I headed for the kitchen, my sandals still strapped to her feet.Hopefully, if she was going to get mad at me for staying out longer than planned, the sight of Chelsea would calm her down a little.I'm sorry Chels, but you're getting useful for me right now."Here I am." I announced as I stood by the kitchen's entrance, my arms around Chelsea as I cradled her to my chest, my whole attention focused on my mother who was currently slicing a round melon into smaller pieces on a cutting board, the sounds of the knife meeting the board resounded around the kitchen on and on.She looked up from what she was doing, her head covered by a big wine coloured bonnet, her mouth tugging into a small smile on sighting Chelsea in my arms."You found Chelsea. Even if I am not sure you noticed her absence in weeks" She stated, her gaze rak

    "Oh, with this friend of yours, am I right?" She inquired, her gaze thankfully not focused fully on me this time but on the counter she was mopping with a hand towel."Yup." I muttered out a reply as I placed Chelsea back on the floor before walking towards the fridge to deposit the carton of drink Silas insisted I take home."So, it's a date or...?" She trailed off in hope of me filling up the blank spaces."Not a date, a hospital outing." I informed her.She stopped what she was doing to look at me for a few seconds before redirecting her attention back to the counter she was wiping off."What's wrong?" She demanded."Nothing really, just me trying to check my stomach." I explained to her, her eyes falling on my last few words."When you'd refuse to eat every time." Mum reminded me, a hurt look on her beautiful face, one which should never g

    And before I could even think about it, I started telling him about my baby brother, James.I didn't even know when the tears started to fall until Silas swiped his thumb against a tear slipping down my cheeks in folds.I pulled away from his reach till I sat at the very edge of his bed as I motionlessly continued to tell me about how growing up with him was.How exciting and eventful the few years I got to spend with him felt, how the years he lived were probably my most meaningful years in my whole life.I could feel the tears pouring down my cheeks as I sobbed quietly, not even a tearful sound escaped my lips as I went on and on about how James was everything.Till I killed him."When I noticed my change in behavior, there wasn't really anything I could do about it. Sometimes I'll just cry for no reason. Other times I'll just starve myself for reasons unknown to me, sometimes I get so confused and lost inside of my own body and it's hard to

    "It's not your fault he died. It's not."I shook my head in denial as I tried to mentally block out all Silas was saying while I tried focusing on my breathing which suddenly ceased for a few seconds due to how hard I was crying.It was a Monday, three days after the session I had with my therapist. Three days after I spoke with Michael. Three days after I finally admitted to my self that I had somehow fallen in love without even realising it.It was supposed to be just a simple hangout where by I'll get to talk with Silas and maybe kiss and do we other stuff for a little bit before I'll finally head home.It wasn't supposed to have a very emotional talk, it wasn't.Somewhere along the line, I found myself in Silas room. This time, I had ventured into his room for the first time, not just his sitting room and kitchen.To say his room was fine was putting it to

    "I've missed you so much, Sisi.""Oh, come on! I thought we agreed not to call each other silly nicknames anymore?" Silas argued with Jordan, an amused laugh playing across his face."You started it, remember? You called me Jordie!""Aw, I was just joking, man." Silas explained but Jordan brushed him off with a shake of his head after pointing out to him that he was the one who started everything.They laughed before Timi, the third boy in the group of friends embraced Silas heatedly. It was pretty obvious about who Silas was really close with between the two guys.The only girl in the group of friends came forward and literally flew into Silas outstretched hands who immediately wrapped themselves around her waist as he lifted her from the ground for a little bit before finally releasing her.I watched, an amused expression on my face as they exchanged p

    "And, we should face time in the nude too!"Wait, whuut?!"I mean, it could be fun and you know..." He trailed off as he wiggled his eyebrows playfully, all traces of seriousness gone from his face, his goofy, playful side back in place."You're high." I informed him with an amused eye roll.A ping came from my phone which was dropped behind the Mac by a very hyper Ashley the moment the call connected with Silas's about an hour ago or so.I bended forward to retrieve the phone, the small exclamation of 'Fuck!' stopped me for a few seconds before I reached forward a little bit more till I reached the phone and returned back to my normal position.My mouth suddenly went dry when I caught Silas's heated gaze on my boobs, he lifted his gaze to my face, our eyes locking intently."Fuck, I didn't know you weren't wearing anything underneath

    "Fay! You have a call from Silas, and we mistakenly accepted the call."Ashley sheepishly called out from the doorway of my room while Whitney held out the phone out in my direction.Ashley and Whitney could perfectly pass on for twins with how they do things together and let's not forget how identical they look coupled with the fact that they were nearly the same height with Whitney only a little bit taller than her immediate younger sister, Ashley."You mistakenly accepted it?" I asked with narrowed eyes as I collected the phone from Whitney's outstretched grip."I swear Aunty F... I mean Fay, it was a mistake. You know, we were just busy watching BTS on YouTube when the call came through and my finger mistakenly tapped it." Ashley explained as she moved her hands around then she mistakenly hit Whitney on the tight with her wandering hands.Whitney only scowled at her younger sister befo

    "There's something about you, something different and fresh like a new gift yet unwrapped, waiting to be pealed off carefully." "At first, I thought it was just a normal attraction, but then somehow I started admitting to myself that it was more than that. Before I knew it, you were always in my head. Be it morning, afternoon, evening and night. Heck, I dream about you once in a while too." I sat up stiffly on the seat of the swing as I drank in all he was softly saying into my ear, his heated breath fanning softly against the sensitive spot behind my ear."Somewhere, somehow, you got into my head and stayed there. I still think it's weird though, this constant edging feeling biting my insides with warmth." He pulled me closer till my whole back was firmly pressed into his chest and his lips pressing into the curve of my ear.

    I stepped into the house and pulled the door closed behind me, different excitement filled voices crackled around in the air to my amusement.Chelsea wagged her tail at me the moment I walked through the door.The voice was mainly coming from the kitchen which I made my way to almost immediately, I was dying to set my eyes on them.An amused smile graced my lips on seeing the three children huddled over one iPad as they disagreed over the game they were supposed to be playing at the moment."Fay! You're back." Mum gushed immediately she sighted me hanging by the door of the kitchen as she made a hand gesture for me to come in instead of standing stiffly by the door."Aunty Fay! Oh my gosh you're so beautiful!" One of the three girls who were arguing over the iPad gushed as she drank me in through her eyes.She looked like a ten years old, but she definitely ac
