"I feel like I am listening to you reading a novel for me." Jamie chuckles as Lauren stops with her story. Jamie did listen to Lauren telling her about the day and she was really surprised or say... intrigued? She was interested in her love life. She had imagined much more making her giggles at herself and her thoughts.
"Yah!! It's not funny." Lauren says acting offended. Jamie chuckles and extends her hands pinching her cheeks. Lauren glares her but she couldn't help but continue pulling and squeezing her cheeks. She just was irresistible to let go.
"You know I have learned about the world by listening to the others talk about their experience and thoughts as well as watching dramas. This is what happens in school drama. Are you sure you have no feelings for him? "
Lauren chokes on her saliva and starts coughing harshly and Jamie widens her eyes as she grabs the jar on the table and pours into a glass handing it to Lauren. Lauren grabs the glass and gulps down the water with heavy breath. Jamie pats her back trying to soothe her. Jamie felt bad but still, she couldn't stop herself laughing. As Lauren calmed down a little, Jamie burst out laughing rolling down on the bed.
"I swear! Jamie, you are soo dead!!" Lauren stands up on her feet and grabs the pillow. She jumps on top of Jamie and attacks her with her pillow. Jamie tries to dodge her attack but fail miserably as she burst out in fits of laughter. Seeing Jamie still laughing, Lauren gets irritated.
"So you wanna laugh? Huh??"
Laurens yells with her chest heaving up and down as she takes a slow but deep breath. Jamie glance at Lauren with small giggles erupting out of her lips. Lauren scoffs rolling her eyes and she smirks when she gets a brilliant idea.
"You really do wanna laugh, I see... then here you GO!!!"
Lauren jumps on Jamie and starts tickling her. Jamie wiggles around trying to detach herself from Lauren's hold. "Yah!.. hahaha...Stop, *snorts* Don't..." Jamies says trying to find words during her breakdown but having been comforted inside Lauren's hold it was hard for her to escape. Lauren enjoyed tickling her sister and having her weak under her. She smiles victoriously.
"Say... hehe... Y-You wanna laugh now? H-Huh? I will haha... stop only if you beg me to." Laurens says still tickling her while Jamie was losing her breath due to her laughing so much. She couldn't even form words. Her eyes were leaking tears and eyes shut closed.
Jamie nods her head vigorously wanting to escape out as she starts throwing her leg up in the air trying to push Lauren away from her. "P-P...Please..." Lauren loosens her hold on Jamie and move back.
"If you say so." Lauren moves away and sits on the bed with her back leaning against the wall. "Ahh... I feel like I am dying... *coughs* I n...never laughed so much in these years. " Jamie confesses as she tries to calm herself and catching her breath.
"Oh my God! I totally forgot about the documents." Jamie yells sitting on the bed with her crossed legs. She grabs the file and get imersed into it. Lauren kept eye her surprised. Lauren chuckles as she too grabs her notes and start copying it.
"Jamie, Let me know when you complete your office work. " Lauren says without looking at her. "Why?" Jamie questions confused.
"Nothing, just wanted your help to copy notes." Jamie laughs "As if I would. Do it yourself. "
"Ugh! But its too much. " Lauren groans facing her. "You must have thought before messing around. " Jamie says tucking her tongue out teasing her but Lauren hisses rolling her eyes.
"Such a devil sister. " Lauren says mocking Jamie. Jamie coocks a brow up taken back by her words.
"Yea, got that Satan's lover." Jamie retrots back. Lauren widens her eyeses and smack Jamie on her head. "Yah! How dare you?"
"No! How you dared to hit me, huh? " Jamie says and they both start with their fight throwing pillow at each other and hitting each other. Literally the room was gonna get messed as it always had been in their sister's night. And about their work...? Whole night maybe?

"Hmm. Dad, as delicious as always. " Ethan says as he wipes his mouth after he finish eating. Oliver chuckles at his response. "But Mom's was the best. " Oliver's smile dissolves in air as he gets mocked again by his son. Ethan laughs out loud seeing His dad's expression. Oliver soon smile a little.
"I agree. I really miss her." Ethan stops laughing as he observes his dad getting emotional. He smile slightly nodding his head. Ethan recalls his memory he had with his mom. As he was pondering over his thought, he went to that moment when he lost his mom. The day the accident happened. How his mom died that very day.
"Dad... you know that wasn't an accident... right?" He says carried again by pain and grief. He felt his heart crumble when he remembers how his mother died in front of his eyes. Oliver sighs at his words.
"But what can be done about it? Nobody believes the things being said. They need proof and there is none. " Oliver says grabbing the plates from the table. He goes into the kitchen and place them on the sink.
"Let me wash it, dad." Ethan says showing up from behind as he grabs the bowl from Oliver's hands. Oliver sighs as he leans against the kitchen counter giving Ethan some space to wash dishes. "If only... that day... I had not let her go there... She wouldn't have been away from us."
Oliver whimpers as he recalls that very day. How he got interrupted in a meeting by a phone call. And that very phone call destroyed his life. How he felt his soul leave his body... how lifeless he felt that day. How he lost his love and his happiness. He recalls every pain and wounds he had at that moment. Oliver felt a sudden jolt of pain hitting his chest. He suddenly felt his body heavy and breathing hallow.
"I understand Dad... I ju- Dad!!!" Ethan screams as he drops the bowl on the sink and approach Oliver's body which was lying on the bed unconscious. He drops down on his knees as he shakes Oliver's body which was lying lifelessly. Ethan panicked seeing his dad on the floor.
He brought his two fingers near his nose, he sighed in relief as he felt slow breathe. Ethan gulps abig lump forming on his throat and search for his phone with quivering lips and teary eyes. He found his phone and dials for the ambulance. He calls for one as he waits for it to arrive. He picks up his dad's figure bridal style and heads out of the house.
He goes outside but he see no sign of ambulance anywhere near and he was growing impatient. He was scared to lose his dad, who unfortunately was his only one. He only had his dad after his mother left and he couldn't afford to lose his dad. His eyes fall on his car. He runs to his car with no second thoughts.
"Dad... you will be fine. Jusrt hold on a little longer."
He mumbles as he places Oliver's limp body in the backseat and he enters the driver seat. He buckles up the seat belt and drive away to the hospital.
