Melanie was marking the days off her calendar. "Just three more days till Margee comes home..." she thought quietly to herself. Melanie and Margee where sisters, even more, each others best friends. The two were inseparable until Margee got accepted at Manhattan College, than everything changed. That would be a day Melanie would never forget.
"Melanie, I told you a hundred times, I have to go, but I promise to call you every night" Margee explained to her sister who now had tears running down her face.
"But, it's just the idea, you'll be sooooo far away from me it's not going to be the same, who will I cry on when I watch the notebook? It's just…" the weeping Melanie said.
"Change, I know, but were both going to have to accept that, it's not like I'm going to be gone forever, I'll be back for breaks and Summer, just save the notebook till then" Margee said on the brim of tears as well but she painted on a smile.
"Alright" Melanie said giving up "But promise me one thing"
"Anything" this time with a real smile, Margee said
"You won't let anyone take my place."
Margee looked confused at her sisters statement "Of course I wont, you know that!"
"MELANIE!" her mom called her, making her snap out of the past and into reality.
"Yes?" she called back
" Dinner Time"
"Alright, I'll be down there in a few" she responded walking towards her closet to get out a clean outfit.
A few minutes later she was ready to go down to Dinner. She took her dirty soccer uniform and headed downstairs stopping by the washer and dryer to drop off her uniform, then she headed into the kitchen where her parents were already serving out the food.
"So, Ma, what's for dinner?" Melanie said trying to start a conversation
"Chicken and Rice with Carrots on the side" her mom answered her
"Wow, you make it sound like a restaurant" grinning, Melanie said making her mom and dad both laugh.
A/N. Well? I don't really know where this story stands but I am trying to figure out.
I haven't updated any of my stories but I'm focusing on writing a second chapter, it'll be where Margee comes home, that's my plan. Hope you liked this chapter and the chapters to continue!
