I walked away,again. I think I was too good at it, until this time. This time it hurt , it hurt very much. How could he pretend as if nothing happens after so much did. I needed a clean break from all this drama. He didn't even follow me like he always did, Atleast when he knew I was angry. I was staring out from the window when I saw Alexis's room light switching on.

I saw silhouettes of two people walking in. One was Alexis for sure because, I had the powers to recognize him in my sleep too. But the other one was a girl, I was just assuming, it was Riley because at first they were arguing and then suddenly out of nowhere their lips just crashed. So Yaa, it was Riley. No wonder he didn't follow me. Why would he? he surely had better business to handle .

I needed solace right now. So curled up in a ball and did what I do best, cry, again, for him, because him. I saw a full on make-out session  so I stood up to shut the curtains when again I saw someone enter  the room, again. I could make out that it was Edwin because I seen him too many times to recognize his silhouette. 

Again I saw the argument phase, but  time it wasn't the kissing phase this time it was fighting and punching. So I got up with a jolt, and walked towards the house right next to me. I can't let my brother and best friend fight like this, for any reason, atleast not a reason that concerns me . The door opened as soon as I rang the door bell, and anxious Ines signaling me to come in as if she knew why I was here and was waiting for me, I sprinted my way upstairs.

" Edwin isn't listening to me! " Ines said as I was climbing up the stairs.

" you are unwell Ines. " she smiled as if she got what I trying to say. It was time for lights, camera and action.

" both of you hands off each other. Alexis leave Edwin!" I ordered.
" Alexis isn't listening to me why will he listen to you? " Riley intervened.

"can you keep your snob aside, let me do, what I am supposed to. "
" Edwin! Hands of him or else I won't talk to you and same for you Alexis! "

But none of my threats were of mew use. They continued fighting. And a shriek came from downstairs. Just the perfect time Ines!

" littly, was that Ines? "
" that's what I came to tell you, she isn't feeling well?! But you won't listen! " and that actually worked, in a second he was down the stairs.

" Clare, I am sorry. "
"  no, you aren't. You have already stopped being my best friend maybe you should lose the tag too. "

And I rushed back down.

When I reached down, Edwin was carrying Ines bridal style and all Ines did was wink at me and I returned the smile and then the drama went on. After Edwin, dropped Ines at her room. I was about to leave. Even though, I stopped the fight I was sad and raging at the same time.

" I am sorry. " Edwin said.
" why did you do this?"
"I couldn't see him breaking my little sister's heart anymore. I told you I will punch him, if he did it again and he did it. "

" I don't want to spoil you boths friendship with each other. This just doesn't make sense not to me ,not for me . "

" you were the chain to our friendship and if that wavers our friendship was bound to waver too and don't blame yourself for this, you don't need to. "

" I love you. "
" I love you more.  "

And then I went back to the house, but bumped into the person I didn't want to talk to. Not now.

" did our friendship just end? "
" Atleast we get back to what we previously were. And that is till Riley goes away. Alexis, look through her lies, for me, please. "

" what about our Saturday nights? "
" you are welcome to invite me or come over whenever you want.  "

" what was this dinner all about?"
" Ines is pregnant. "
" then I punched the correct person.  " one last snicker. It was actually one last round of laughter.

And we walked to our own houses.
