As I told you that night I fell asleep smelling her amzing perfume, my mind was peaceful even if our conversation had moved me a lot i slept really well without any nightmare or stuff lilke this. Next morning I woke up early around six, I was used to wake up early and could never sleep much, I knew Emilia was still asleep it was Saturday and she would most likely sleep until noon, I couldn't blame her, she liked to sleep and she was a bit lazy too. I had a whole six hours before she wakes up, so I grab bed a bag and chosed to head out. I stopped to the candy shop first this time I couldn't forget to take Emilia's favorite candies, they were expensive but she deserved it, she liked French Caramels so obviously something that you could not find everywhere but this candy shop had them. I also stopped to grab some food but unfortunately I was running short on money, so I just took what we really needed and a drink for me, I had this bad habbit to always buy a drink for me while i was shopping , no one knew about it but I had the feeling i was using my parents money for myself and it was wrong… Maybe you noticed but I also overthink a lot of time and end up asking myself more questions... I was on my way back it was something like ten and i was going to make a breakfast for Emilia before she gets out of bed.
I was quite surprised when i opened the door she was up and in the kitchen struggling with eggs and chocolate, she was not good at all for cooking but i twas my duty so it was to be expected... I left the bag on the table and throw the empty bottle in the trash bin and got behind her gently guiding her hands to teach her how to make a proper cake
« Aren't you early this morning ? » I asked smiling while I was still holding her hands helping her to put the yolk of the egg aside « That's how you do it » I said getting back and sitting back on the kitchen table
« You didn't have to help me ! » Emilia answered embarassed, she alwyas refused to have people helping her, I though it was somehow cute « And don't sit there ! It's the place to prepare food » She yelled at me and I just got off the table, I used to leave early every morning so I tend to forget how irritable she is in the morning
« This cake was supposed to be for you but you ruined everything » Emilia was quite angry and left the kitchen leaving everything undone and almost untouched, I heard her going upstairs most likey to her room … Since she had started a cake I had to finish it, I used her little work to make her favorite cake, it was some kind of chocolate frozen cake. When were kids my mother used to do some every week end Emilia was always eating it with Caramel and milk, I hated it but when my mom and dad started to travel I learned with the recipie so I would be able to do it for Emilia sometimes.
This cake was very hard and long to make and before I realized it, it was past noon around three to be more precise. I did cut a piece of the Frozen cake putting it on a plate with some caramels next to it and of course a glass of milk , I headed to Emilia's room carefully, the door was closed and I didn't want to disturb her
« Emilia.. There is a snack for you on the bookshelf next to your door .. Take it whenever you want but eat it while it's still frozen » She did not answer so I did put the plate on the bookshelf and left , looking at her door one last time before going back downstairs. I started cleaning and all that stuff , it was dinner and Emilia was still locked up in her room, she did not come and I was not hungry so I just grabbed a book and start reading.
Later at night she finally came down while I was watching TV, she was wearing tights again and one of my sweater, it was far too big for her but again it was cute, she took the remote and lowered the volume and pulled my sleeve gently so I'd focus on her.
I looked at her trying to be a bit cold since she stayed in her room all the day « What do you want ? » I asked sighing and playing with my book
« The cake.. was really delicious and I am sorry.. I mean I woud like to… apologise for getting angry this morning » She looked sincere so I chosed to forgive her even though I was not really angry in the first place
I hugged her warmly lying down with her on the couch « Do you want to watch another show ? I know you don't like this kind of stuff » She just nodded to answer and I started zapping on TV
« This one … is okay » I stopped on the channel she wanted it was some kind of boring romance stuff but i did not say anyting, deep inside I was too happy to have my little sister back close to me
In the middle of the movie she pulled my sleeve again and I looked at her
« You didn't answer me yesterday night, do you feel neglected » I just shaked my head to make her understand I was feeling this way
« Would it change if i act less lazy at home ? Do you want me to take care of things ? » I could see she was worried but she was still in high school i wanted her to work hard instead of taking care of the house , so I answered
« No it's okay, it's not about you, don't change anything » I hugged her more tightly and pulled her closer , her head was now resting on my chest and we finished the movie, I was abou to go to sleep but I noticed she fell asleep on me, so I tried to grab my book without moving too much.
I think that again i chosed to run away from the real problem I was just comforting her. I got bored fast with the books so i threw it on the table, it made some noise so I checked if Emilia was still sleeping , hopefully she was. I was bored and not sleepy enough to fell asleep especially in this weird position so I began to play with her long purple hairs, they were soft and I loved them, I could have spend all the night playing with them but slowly I was getting tired. I wanted to go sleep in my room but i felt the need to stay close to Emilia, not for her but for me I wanted to stay with her and not sleep on my own. I just pulled the blanket over us and wrapped my arms around her, my hands resting on her belly. I fell asleep smiling and appeased. Maybe i was slowly getting better with her around.
To be continued ….
