Ephram had just walked out and left an astounded Amy and Bright in the
room.
"Look what you did," Amy exclaimed, "things were going great." Amy was furious. She had been looking forward to spending some time with Ephram that day.
"I swear. I didn't know that they had broken up." Bright answered
"They just broke up a couple days ago."
"What happened," Bright asked? As far as he knew, things with Madison were great.
"I guess the age difference ruined things. Here, make yourself useful and help me unpack these boxes," Amy said changing the subject.
"Yes'm." Bright answered; "Good to know you're still ordering me around."
"If I didn't, than nothing would get done."
Bright gave her an evil glance and went over to a box.
He started unpacking one of the boxes, throwing the contents on the floor. Near the bottom of the box, he stumbled upon an old photograph. "Is this you and Brown," Bright asked? He was staring at the photograph of the two sharing cotton candy and laughing.
"Give me that!" Amy grabbed the picture from Bright and carefully put it on her dresser. "Looks like you two were having a good time." "That was at the fall carnival, last year," Amy answered blushing.
"You really like him, don't you," Bright said. It wasn't a questions but more of a statement. He always had thought there was really something between them. "Yes, I do, more than you know."
"You probably don't want to hear this, but I think you should hold off a little while. Let Ephram get over Madison. He looked pretty upset."
"Don't worry; we already talked it out after he kissed me." "He what?!"
Suddenly, Harold appeared in the doorway.
"How is the unpacking going," he asked? There was an awkward silence. "Um, good dad," Amy quickly answered.
"Well, Lunch will be ready in five minutes." "Ok," she said.
After Harold left, they got back to the discussion.
"So, he kissed you," Bright asked? "Yes, for the hundredth time," she exclaimed. "After the kiss, we talked and decided to not rush things." she added.
"Maybe I should go talk to him." Amy wanted to go take him in her arms and comfort him.
"No, don't. Give him some time," Bright said. "Sometimes it helps to be alone." For once Bright was making sense, Amy thought. Maybe he was right; she could talk to him on Monday at school.
"Let's go eat lunch," Amy said smiling, "and Bright, Thanks!" "No problem. That is what big brothers are for." he said. With that said Bright and Amy went downstairs to share their first lunch together as a family since Amy left.
