Kurt Hummel

Kurt was lying on his bed, staring at his pale blue bedroom's ceiling. Then he had a long sigh. Summer vacation has been going on for two days, and he felt that he didn't do anything meaningful, which, for some reason, feels so frustrating.

Kurt turned to the right, staring into the empty bed next to his. Finn Hudson's bed. Someone who long-loved, coveted, and wanted by him. Kurt wondered what will happen in the future when his father Burt and Finn's mother, Carole Hudson, married, and the boy who had been desired by him for a long time soon will be his brother.

Kurt sighed again. Staring at the empty bed. Perhaps his love for Finn will not be rewarded until the end of the world, but the sense that the Finn will be his brother is much more awkward and far more bizarre than any kind of feeling that Kurt ever expect from someone named Finn Hudson.

Kurt's eyes then turned to the calendar on the wall between Finn's bed and his, and saw a red circle around the number "7" at the month of August. Finn will return to this house in 4 days time from his football camp. For Kurt, this condition is not too good and not too bad, because it seems that Finn have accepted Kurt for the way he is. Finn would understand his condition, and is now regarded Kurt as his friend.

"Being a friend was not so bad," Kurt whispered to himself.

Then Kurt closed his eyes, trying to sleep. He turned on his iPod, listened to Josh Groban playlist as his sleep lullaby, hoping that tomorrow is more productive than his previous two.

Quinn Fabray

For Quinn, Mercedes Jones' home is probably the most perfect home ever. Mercedes' house is not big, it has a usual spacious yard, and not expensively furnished. But this house is a real home, which the actual functions of the house can be felt. It is the place where a dentist who came home at 7 was greeted by a warm kisses from his wife and his daughter, where you can get a simple dinner delights, and a place where you can see an appropriate family room's atmosphere.

Quinn's room located next to Mercedes'. Quinn never thought before that the room which now hers was once occupied by a boy. Mercedes has done an amazing job to created a room suitable for Quinn, and Quinn is very grateful for that.

Today is the third day of August, and Quinn was sitting pensively at the Jones' kitchen table. Mr and Mrs. Jones had went to bed, and Quinn could hear the faint voice of Mercedes singing in the bathroom. Quinn can't figured out why the silence around her felt so perfect, combined with Mercedes' singing sound which can be heard up to the first floor of this house.

Quinn rolled her cola can, and suddenly tears flow directly from her eyes. She imagined herself in the middle of the Fabray's residence, joking and laughing with his father and mother. Puzzled, remorse, and complacency mixed together in Quinn's mind. Quinn blaming herself for the fight she had with her father, perplexed because she refused the offer from her mother to stay at Fabray's residence, and was satisfied that the first time in her life, she brave enough to tell the truth of what she actually felt in front of his parents, confront their living conditions, as well as being herself completely.

Quinn quickly wiped her tears. Her eyes turned to the clock in the kitchen. It's already 23:15. Quinn moved from the kitchen into her bedroom on the second floor. When Quinn arrived at the front door of her room, that's the exact time when Mercedes stop her singing hum. Quinn opened the door of her room, hoping that someone could make her life more interesting the next day.
