Rain pours down hard onto the car. Sarah complains, "Rain! I hate rain!! Every time I go on vacation, It has to rain."
Rain lightens a little and the car shook a little under her. "Great.. It letting up." As I pulled up into my parents drive-way, I spotted Toby playing on the steps.
It was quite scary to look at him. His hair and eyes were oddly colored. Blonde hair slight silver streaks and his eyes were almost blue-ish black. It reminded me of Someone, I couldn't remember, but saw in my dreams for the past 5 years now. I couldn't stand it some days. My heart would beat with intensity when I saw his eyes.Those mismatched eyes..I lost concentration and almost hit my parents' car. I hit the brake fast inches away from their car. Turned the engine off, got out the car, closed the door and jogged up to Toby and hugged him.
I let him go and stared him in the eyes. "How's my baby brother doing? Aye?" I asked with enthusiasm. "Gweat!! How you?" He asked. "Its , How are you? And I'm fine." I'm an English major.
"Wight? Come inside, Sawah!" He replied.
"Hold on! I've got present in the car." He pulls me over to the car, I open the door and get the presents, and he closes the door.
"Thank you, Toby."
"Welcome, Sawah." He still had that speech impediment? Amazing. I thought it was gone.. He tugged on my jeans, pulled me toward to door of the house, opened the door, and guided me in, closing the door behind him. The place was much better looking than the last time I came. More elegant, dressy , which kind of scared me. Toby must have some toys strolled somewhere, unless he was one of those "clean up after you" children. My step-mother and real-father came in the entry hall, hugging, and helping me into the living room.
The presents were set on the tea table by my step-mom. "Mom, Dad, I'd like it if you'd open the present after dinner."
"Okay. We will Sarah. Be patient. Now then, let's start dinner." I set the table, mom was fixing the dinner, and dad was keeping Toby busy. I loved to cook and help my step-mom cook the biscuits. Preparing the gravy and biscuits was my favorite job for dinner.
Once done cooking and setting, we all sat down to eat.A thought came into my head, since I was driving or 2 days to get here, what was the date? "Dad, whats the date?" When he told me, I just about broke into tears.
"What's wrong?" He asked with the utmost concern in his voice. I replied with, "No.. nothing's wrong.. I got something in my eye.." Today was the same day, I almost lost Toby to that kidnapping Goblin fiend. I remember his name right away. Jareth.yes. Jareth Fae the Goblin King . I tried finishing my dinner, when my train of thought was broken by me catching Toby staring at me awkwardly..
Then he said, "Awe you going to eat that biscuit, Sawah?"
I smiled and replied, "No. You can have it." I passed it to him still smiling and he smiled back just the same.
"Silly boy," Mom said, "you are dripping gravy everywhere! Are you okay, dear?"
"I'm fine. Just not hungry. And very much tired."
"Oh dear. Do you want to go to bed? Your room is still the way it was before you left. You can sleep their if you want." It was amazing. She was actually conerned about me for once.
"No, I'm fine for now. If we're all done, I'll put up the dishes and you all go and open the present I bought up in the city, where I work." They all got up, went into the living room, and sat waiting for me. I quickly cleaned the dishes and put them away. Walking toward the living room, I noticed that everyone was staring at me.
"What is it?" I asked freaked out by the staring.
"Are you all right, Princess?" Father asked me. "You're as white as a sheet."
"I'm just tired." I replied with a slight angered tone of voice. "NOW then! Open the presents." I forced a smile. They all open their gifts. I got Dad a beautiful antique clock for his collection, Mom a gold trim pink diamond pendent, and Toby a red truck toy.
"This really wasn't necessary, dear!" Step-mom said in shock.
"Princess!! This must of been costly!" Dad said also in shock. Toby was already playing with his toy. "Its fine! My job brings in a lot of money and I save my money unless its needed." I said smiling happily.
"What is your job again?" "I'm a English professor and employee of a big corporation." I said smile fading. They all said thank you. We all talked for hours, except for Toby. He was playing remarkably quiet with his truck. Then it was time for bed.
I looked at the clock and in shock said, "GOODNESS! Its 11:12 P.M.!!"
"Yes, we must of lost track of time." Toby had gone to bed about 10:30. I think... I hugged them, went upstairs to my old room, and to sleep.
