My Brother's Best Friend Is My Mate
Chapter 2: Breakfast. Yaay!!
I run downstairs and head to the kitchen. Seated at the table, are my two brothers and my dad munching contentedly . My mom is at the counter fixing what looks like a cup of coffee.
My dad must've heard me come down, because he motions for me to take a seat at the table. As I take my seat at the table, another alarm goes off.
"Noo!", I screech and look at my watch. Great. School calls in 20 minutes. What's the point of waking up just for food, and then end up with none at all?
I swear to God that the world or, most likely karma, is messing with me.
"Why are you always so uptight", Damion teases, "being a few minutes late won't kill." I glare at him and resist the urge to stick my middle finger out at him.
"Emerald, honey, don't mind him. He's just teasing you", my mom says as she walks over to me. She hands me a warm piece of toast that smells like damn heaven.
I take one bite and swallow it. "Thanks mom!"
"I'm going to get going now", I tell everyone. I tighten my bag straps on my shoulder and fix my watch on my wrist. Although I love food very, very, very much, school always comes first. I have NEVER EVER been late to school before. Never.
"Wait, can't you stay to drink some coffee? ", mom asks as I leave. I wish I could mom, but I can't!
