that's it I SWEAR!! Now...on w/ ch. 5!!
I wanna thank Brianna who has encouraged me to keep writing this story. THANKS GURL!!
The next morning, everyone in the Stokes household was eating breakfast at the kitchen table, except for Sissy. During the night, Sissy had gone in the house through the basement door and had quietly left this morning without running into Sara. Sissy not being at the table did not go unnoticed by the kids.
"Mom, where's Aunt Sissy?" Miranda asked.
"She's out sweetie, eat your pancakes," Sara answered her daughter.
"Well, when is she coming back?" Miranda questioned.
"I don't know," Sara said bitterly.
Nick, sensing his wife's anger, simply said, "Let's not talk about it. OK?" All three kids nodded.
Sara finished her breakfast quickly. She got up from the table, dropped the plate she had used in the sink, and said, "I'm going to take a shower. Have a good day at school kids." She then walked upstairs, and slammed her bedroom door. Nick put his plate away, said, "I'll be right back," to the kids, and followed his angry wife.
As soon as Nick and Sara were both gone, Ally said, "I heard Aunt Sissy creep out this morning. She looked like she had been crying."
"Yeah, you would know what someone who had been crying would look like," Miranda mumbled. Ally elbowed her sister.
"I'm serious. I think Aunt Sissy and mom had a fight," Ally said.
"I don't like it when mom cries. Because then, she always wants to hug you and everything," Jeff replied.
"Spoken like a true man Jeff," Miranda told her brother.
"We have to get mom and Aunt Sissy to stop fighting," Ally demanded.
"Yeah, because then mom won't cry," Jeff said. He got hit by both his sisters.
Upstairs, Sara had finished her shower and was now laying out clothes, acting completely normal. Nick was lying on their bed.
"Do you want to talk about it?" Nick asked.
Sara was quiet before she said, "What shirt should I wear today, the pink or the green?"
"Sara, come on. You have to talk about this! If you don't, it will eat you alive."
Silence again before Sara said, "The green one has a smudge on it. Pink it is."
Nick got up, and took both shirts away from her. "Stop. Talk to me."
"I can't."
"Yes you can. I've known you for 20 years, and you've never acted like this." Sara still stayed quiet. "Come on baby, tell me what happened."
Sara sighed. "OK, I'll tell you." Sara sat down on her and Nick's bed, with Nick sitting right next to her, before she told him everything. The "no party" rule, the fight in the kitchen, the scene at Greg's house, and the fight in the car. By the end of the story, tears started to fall down Sara's cheeks. Nick held his wife. They stayed just like that until they heard a honk outside that came from Ally's school bus. Sara wiped her tears away, and sat up.
"Are you OK?" Nick asked.
"Yeah, the sooner she leaves the better." Nick smiled, and gave Sara a kiss. "I love you," he whispered.
"I love you, too." Nick gave Sara one more kiss.
"As for these shirts, I heard it might rain today, so you should wear a white shirt," Nick said. Sara playfully slapped his arm before laughing, picking up the pink shirt, and walking into the bathroom to change. Pink is my favorite color, so of course pink would get chosen over green. Anyway, that was chapter 5. Good? Bad? PLZ REVIEW!!!! The next chapter will be about how Sissy is reacting after her fight with Sara-but I won't post it until I get at least one new review!! So please review!! (Don't you want to know what happens?) PS- Sissy's reaction to the fight will be more humorous than Sara's reaction. wink
