I sit in the corner, on the plush cushions, pounding my fists against the wall.

What was going on?

Spotting my paint pad I move over to it, crouching low. Scanning the colours I choose grey, to show my emotion. The second colour.. Blonde. Like mine and Kyle's hair.

I blow my hair from my face and begin to draw.

*****************************************

It's now 5:30 Pm. I sigh as I pull down my baby blue dress, I really needed a new one. From what I gathered we were going to Kyle's after a day of rejection from him. I even knocked on the front door, demanding for Kyle. His dad had mumbled something about preparing and God knows what else.

As we hustle into the car I cant help wonder why were just not walking through the garden. With an empty stomach and a mind full of un-answered questions my parents did NOT want to speak to me.

We soon arrived at the familiar honey coloured door, identical to my own.

" Come on Zai " My mum tugged at my arm, I really did not want to go. I had a continuous dreading feeling in my stomach, I knew something loomed ahead. Mum continued to tug at my arm, grumbling I got out. Slamming the car door behind me. Mum bit her lip, restraining from telling me off.

" Welcome! I knew you would make it " Greg, Kyle's dad introduced us. I couldn't help but roll my eyes, of course we would make it. I could be home in about five seconds if I wanted to. We shuffled through the doorway dumping, well me, dumping our coats on the stairs and strolling through the house as if it were my own. My second home.

Mary, Kyle's mum, ushers me towards the dining room, literally pushing me into the seat, opposite Kyle.

" Now you two be nice whilst I bring out the dishes " She mutters, walking out of the room. As she does silence seems to wrap round us like a coat.

" Kyle what's this ab..." I couldn't make any more words come out as all the adults and food comes out.

Set out in front of me was a classic Sunday roast. Yorkshire pudding, Chicken, Vegetables, Gravy, Baked potatoes and on the side her delicious home made chocolate cake. My mouth waters at the sight but I restrain from grabbing it. I turn to exchange a knowing smirk with Kyle but he still isn't looking at me.

We begin eating peacefully until Mary breaks the silence.

" I'm sure you know by now.." I feel my mum freeze beside me, franticly shaking her head at Mary. " Oh.. I mean, were sorry to tell you this " My heart quickens at the words. What was wrong? Was Kyle ill?

Continuing on she sais softly " Greg has had an amazing opportunity, he's been offered to be a senior manager.." Irritation flows through me, why are they telling me this? From a cleaner to a senior manager that is good but why would I care, it wont affect me, will it?

" The offer is positioned.. " Mum grabs my hand. I glance at her questioningly but she just continues to stare at her plate, Kyle likewise.

" Its positioned in California "

I freeze, letting the words sink in.

California

My hand begins to shake and I take it from mums placing it in my lap.

California

My voice comes out surprisingly stronger then I felt " How far away is that? "

Silence envelops us for the first time in years. For the first time Kyle speaks.

" I don't know, I couldn't work it out on Google maps because it's physically impossible to walk there.. Look after the shed for me? "

I don't laugh or respond.

I push away Mary's chocolate cake.
