1. Her Family
"Nina, how did your parents die?"
This fateful question was asked on a Tuesday night in September, in Fabian's room while the two were studying for the Social Studies test the next day.
"Um, it was a car crash. A drunk driver killed them." Nina answered, wiping a stray tear from under her eye.
"I'm so sorry, Nina, I didn't mean to make you cry..."
"No, Fabian, it's alright. Opening up actually helps me." Nina took a deep breath and continued. "It was about ten years ago, when I was in Kindergarten. It was horrible the entire year, because none of the other little kids wanted to talk to that girl who had to have an old lady pick her up and drive her to school and didn't have a mommy or daddy like everybody else. I mean, I couldn't really blame them. It had to be awkward to ask 'What are your mommy and daddy going to cook for supper?' And then find out that they're dead."
That was when Nina really broke down. It wasn't all because she misses her parents, even though she did, with all her heart.
It was more because of the embarrassment. She was actually ashamed that her parents were gone and she was different than everybody else.
But, Fabian thought differently. He thought it made her even more perfect that she could be so insecure about something she had absolutely no control over.
And they laid there, on Fabian's bed on a Tuesday night in September, completely forgetting about Social Studies. He let her lean on his shoulder and cry.
please review! Love y'all!
