LILY’S POVO
We were currently in the kitchen eating breakfast. While Noel and Rose had eggs and toast I had to settle for dried crackers and came tra Thumane feeling went away a little bit but I still felt weak from throwing up earlier.
“So, when are you going to meet your dad and sister?” Noel asked. It didn’t sit well with me when he called her my sister, or when he called hire my dad Just thinking about it made my blood boil. I refrained myself from lashing out at him though, since it was an innocent question and he wouldn’t have known it would have affected me that much. So I decided to answer the question as nonchalantly as possible, trying to hide in the anger 1 1st at the question.
“Summer break is in two days so I was thinking I should just take the opportunity then.” I shrugged while chewing hard on the crackers My jaw started to hurt when I realized I’ve been biting a little too aggressively and stopped myself from clenching my teeth.
“I think that’s a good idea!” Rose cheerfully added.
“Yeah I guess, I still don’t know if I made the right choice.” I said a little bit grumpy as I slumped on the barstool, I really didn’t have an appetite even for dry ass crackers right now, as we were on a sensitive topic.
“I think you did Lily, just stay positive.” Noel told me as Rose nodded in agreement.
“How are you going to get there?” Rose asked after a long awkward pause of eight minutes. I looked at her as I got off the stool and went to wash my hands.
“I’m taking the bus I guess.” I shrugged as I dried my hands.
“But you hate buses.” She pointed out as she ate her eggs. Some pieces even flew out and landed on Noel’s cheek. He gave her an intense glare as he wiped it off with a cringe. It was true though about me hating buses. I always felt claustrophobic whenever I took one and it wasn’t a good feeling,
“Yeah I know, but I don’t want to bother my mom in having to pick me up.” I said truthfully. I really didn’t want to trouble her, she has enough on her plate with my so called dad coming back and trying to make amends.
“Can’t you get someone who has a vehicle to drop you off?” Rose asked hopefully.
“I don’t have any friends except you guys.” I said sadly. Well I do have another friend, doesn’t Niall count as one? I mean we have been getting a little bit closer. They gave me a reassuring look before changing the subject,
“We can’t go with you, we are actually going to our parents house for summer break.” Noel sighed as he looked guilty for not being able to drop me off.
“Oh, that sounds lovely.” I was truly happy for them, they haven’t seen their parents in awhile. Not since they had a huge fight about Noel being gay and not accepting him. He moved here to start over and Rose being the supportive sister moved with him. I’m glad to see they are now on speaking terms again with their parents since all of them were close, but that huge fight drifted them apart.
“Yeah, I wish you could have come.” Rose said sadly.
“Anything would be better than going and meeting that man and his daughter.” I stated, as I dramatically shivered to get my point across. We all burst into laughter before resuming what we were doing. Noel and Rose continued eating breakfast and I went on to get ready for school.
At school-
I was in my second class when I discovered that our teacher wasn’t here today. So not having anything to do, I decided to take c read to pass time. I was five minutes into the book when I heard footsteps heading my way.

I was startled a little when someone sat in the seat next to me. I looked up at the culprit and let out a relieved sigh when I saw that it was Niall. He looked like he was out of breath and was sweating profusely. I raised my eyebrow in question at his disheveled state.
“What happened to you?” I asked.

“My alarm didn’t go off.” He chuckled sheepishly.
“Oh I thought you were running away from a masked murderer or something” joked. He laughed as he told himself on the chat and dager to
desk.
“So, what did I miss?” He asked as he looked around for the teacher. Looking confused when he didn’t see one, he brought back his atta
“You didn’t miss anything other than our teacher being absent like usual” i shrugged nonchalantly. It was true though our teacher was hardly presents but when she was, she would just give us work without explaining anything to us. Sometimes I worlder how she was even a teacher to begin withs
“Ha, seems like she has better things to do than babysit a bunch of senior students who still act like toddlers.” Niall jokes.
“But that’s what she is paid to do, it’s getting a little annoying when your teacher isn’t teaching you anything but by the end of the term we would have an exam we haven’t even known about.” I said irritated.
“Have you guys thought about informing the headmaster?” He asked.
“Trust me we have, but it’s of no use since she’s his wife.” I laughed.
“Oh, that explains it!” He nodded in understanding.
“Yep.” I answered, popping the p.
“So, what are you doing for summer break?” I asked, trying to make conversation.
“Nothing actually, I thought that I could just lay in bed playing video games.” He laughed when he saw the look on my face.
“That’s boring, how about you come home with me? I’m sure my mom would love the extra company.” I could use a shoulder to lean on when I come face to face with my father and half sister. Niall has a car so it would be a bonus for me. I really didn’t want to take the bus.
“Oh so it’s ‘meet the parents‘ already? Didn’t know we were in a committed relationship, Lily.” He teased. His eyes flashed with mischief as he waited for my comeback.
I rolled my eyes “Stop feeling yourself doofus, I just wanted company and I thought that we were close friends.”
“Ouch, friendzone!” He dramatically put a hand over his heart as his face clenched with pain. We burst out laughing when I knocked him in the head with the book I was reading earlier.
“You’re an idiot!” I stated, while he rubbed his head where I had hit.
“Okay I’ll come, but on one condition.” He said.
“Go ahead.” I gestured for him to continue.
“You play at least one video game with me.” He announced and gave me the lost puppy look. He looked cute and for a second I couldn’t think.
“It’s a deal.” I agreed, before shaking his hand to emphasize on the deal.
