Sunny Hours

byP. Buffay

Chapter 2: What's going on?

Yes! One more 'A'! Well done, Diana! You're going very well! – A smile appeared on the young student's face while she was going to the canteen for the breakfast.

Hi, Martin! What did you think about the history exam yesterday? – He didn't hear. He was too worried to think about something.

Martin!

Uh? Hi Di, what's up?

I asked you 'what did you think about the history exam yesterday'!

Uh? It was good, very good...

Really? Did you study for it?

No. Oh, I've just remember! I need go to the library.

What? To the library? You never go there!

Yeah, but I… I've just remember I forgot my search of chemistry about 'igmas' rocks there, and I need to hand over it today to Mr. Smith, bye.

Wait, but we didn't have to do any search! Martin, w… – But before she could finish, he ran to the hall, leaving she alone – wait.

Diana's POV:

"Yes, he was so weird today. I don't see him since the breakfast when he got out running… don't know… Martin usually doesn't do that… actually I guess I never saw him so weird like today… not I'm caring… for me is better, cause then, he doesn't annoy me… but…" She looked to the room's watch, it was 22:35. She backed attention to the philosophy book and started to read it. But the words didn't mean anything to her, her thinking kept on Martin. "…after all, he's my brother." She stood up and went to Martin's room. All was so quite, nobody was in the gangway. She stopped in front of the door and knocked it. "Toc, Toc". The door opened and Diana could see a hair lock of blond hair behind it:

Hey, Martin.

Diana! Er… hey! W…what are you doing here?

I just came to say 'hi', bro… oh! And ask if you want any help to study to the philosophy exam of tomorrow.

What? Exam… oh! The exam! Hee… - "he didn't study yet?" – Oh, sure! The exam!...

Yes, Martin, the exam… Didn't you study yet?

Sure I studied! And thanks, but I don't need help.

Are you sure, Martin? Cause I can help y…

Yes, I'm pretty sure! Now please, could you leave me alone? I need to sleep! – He screamed so loud, that was surprise nobody hear, even the gangway has been desert. Diana looked at him for a second:

All right, so I… I'm already going… bye – She was getting distance of Martin's room when she took something from the bag. – Oh, just one more thing… - she ran back to him and gave him it – I made this in the cookery class today… I kept some to you… I guess they're still good…- it was a pot with cookies inside. Martin took the little pot with the letter 'D' on the lid and said:

Oh!... thanks… - they looked each other for a few seconds until Diana get out walking through the desert gangway.

Diana came in her room and lay down on bed "Yeah, he was really weird… don't know… I've never seen Martin like that, I mean, he spare me again!... and I never saw he scream like that before… It's sure he didn't study for the exam…" She closed her eyes for a few seconds and opened them again "… but why do I care with that?... I mean, Martin never studied for any exam… I was only offering help to him like I would be doing for any person… but why did he scream with me like that way? I didn't do anything to him… and why didn't he let me came in his bedroom? …probably because he wasn't studying, but playing video-game or reading something except the philosophy book!... I know m.o.m. said that we won't have any missions till exams finish… Would be because that he's so… weird? Well, if is it, it's not fair he trash me! After all, it's not my fault m.o.m. have made this decision! And surely I didn't do anything that let him angry!...Or I did? … Am I not being nice with him?... Well, he should thanks to me for I always remember him about the exams and all!… Or maybe he's becoming annoyed of that?... Am I being a nice sister to him?... I mean… I think Martin too immature and boring sometimes… but I can't imagine myself living without him… I can't imagine the idea of our parents getting divorce, cause there would be just… me?" Her eyes crowded of tears "He always cared with me since we were children… but today it liked I was just someone who offered help to study for the exam!…" the first tear fell over her face "why am I crying? I mean, why I care so much with this?... I love him like person, like friend…" she closed her eyes "… like brother." And fell asleep.

Martin's POV:

"This can't be happening! M.O.M. didn't give any notice since the morning! At least nothing happened with Diana… I don't know how I pasted all the day without talk with her… but I just did that to protect her, or who knows what that crazy alien could do with her… he won't end the Center! Ah, damned!... I guess I never lied to Diana before…" He stopped to walk from one side to the other and sat on bed. "I hope she didn't feel angry with my attitude today… Diana is the only sister I have, I mean, she isn't my sister biologically… but I regard she like this…" He stood up, walked to the window and looked at the sky. "m.o.m. said that at 22:30 she would give me news…" he looked at the watch "but it's already 22:36 and nothing!" suddenly, someone knocked in the door. He opened it and saw someone known:

Hey, Martin!

Diana! Er… hey! W…what are you doing here? – I didn't wait for this.

I just came to say 'hi', bro – she never called me 'bro' before… - oh! And ask if you want help to study for the philosophy exam of tomorrow. – or for THIS! I completely forgot we would have a exam tomorrow!

What? Exam…oh! The exam! Hee…- and could I be more graceless? – Oh! Sure! The exam! – Shit! Diana won't believe on it!

Yeah Martin, the exam… didn't you study yet? – didn't I say?...

Sure I studied! And thank you, but I don't need help. – I don't believe I had to lie again!

Are you sure, Martin? Cause I can help y…

Yes, I'm pretty sure! Now, please, could you leave me alone? I need sleep! – oh, no! I don't believe I screamed with her like this! You're an idiot! – She looked at him for a second and said:

All right, so I… I'm already going… - "oh Martin, look what you did! Now she's probably confusing and sad! Damned!" Diana got distance of Martin's room when suddenly she stopped, took something from the bag, ran back to him "and now!... what does she want?" and gave him it:

I made this in the cookery class today… I kept some to you… I guess they're still good… - it was a pot with cookies inside "I don't believe! After I've screamed and been awful with her, even so she brings me something to eat!... I guess I never felt so bad like now…"

Oh!... thanks… - they looked each other for a few seconds, till Diana get out walking through the desert gangway. "shit!"

Martin followed her with the look till she disappear in the gangway. He closed the door and sat on bed "how could I do this with her? She surely felt angry with me!... I never screamed with her before, and never had to lie… well, unless one time on Valentine's Day when I told her that Peter Stevens, the boy from England, had a crush on her and it was so funny when she changed her accent, ha,ha… poor Pete!... oh, but that is not the point, Martin! That's not compared with what you said to her today! But I had no choice! If I didn't do that, she could came in the room and m.o.m. could call at any time and then, that alien could hurt Diana, and I never would forgive myself if that happens…" he stayed immovable for a second "exam? Oh, no! Now she'll think I wasn't studying, but playing video-game or reading anything except school books!... but, wait a minute, if I wasn't in a secret mission of the Center I would probably be doing this…oh!" he laid down on bed and turned the head for a side. His eyes found the pot of cookies with the letter 'D' on the lid that Diana had give him, he smiled and took one cookie "she's so sweet." Bit it "wow, this is delicious!" looked at the other side and saw the photo he took with Diana when they were young, he smiled, went to the window and looked at the sky "there are a lot of stars in the sky today… I usually don't stop to see it… Tomorrow surely will be a sunny day… and my sunny hours are going away…" and there he stayed till fell asleep and sat on the chair that was next him…
