my mother, Maia Aiwa,” I say as I gesture to my mother. “This is my father, Lavin Aiwa,” I continue and I gesture to my father. “And, this is my older brother Javier Aiwa,” I finish, gesturing to my brother.
“It is a pleasure to meet you all. My name is Heather Gold,” Heather says. I never actually knew her last name and I like it. She shakes everyone’s hand and we all head inside. I roll my eyes and head in too.
“Camsie, this is a very lovely house here. I cannot believe that you live in a place like this,” my mother says.
“You think this is lovely you should see one of my other houses, no offence Heather,” I reply.
“How many houses do you own?” Javier asks.
“I have…” I begin to say. I really don’t know. I continue, “more than one hundred in America and more than five hundred on the other side of the world.”
“Can I have one?” Javier asks.
“Maybe, it depends where,” I answer. I smile and turn to everyone.
“Anyway, I would love to show you all to your rooms now if you would like,” Heather says.
“I would like that,” replies my mother. Heather takes my mother and father to their room. Vladimir is taken to his room, Aldan and Shiva’s old room. Javier gets the room next to Erin’s. I think that this will work out with this strange arrangement we have at this house. I go to Ryan and I kiss him sweetly. I begin to feel weak. I start to fall.
“Are you okay? You look paler than normal,” Ryan says when I start to stand again.
“I just need to eat,” I reply.
“Then let’s go now.”
“Ya we should.” Ryan picks me up and starts running to the woods. He lets me down and runs off to get something for me to eat. I sit on the cold forest floor and look up at the top of the trees. I see some of the sunlight peak through the trees and I close my eyes. Ryan comes over with a deer. He puts it down and I sink my teeth in it.
A minute later I finish and say, “Thanks for the meal Ryan. I do not know what I would do without you.” I get up and hug Ryan. He playfully bites my ear.
