Chapter 2 - The Tearing Cake

31 December 2025

The day was nice many will call it perfect as it was sunny day, it felt like the sun was singing

(Author i dont know for how long we gonna be in this novel but i already hate you, Lez)

"BROTHER, you gotta wake up already !! It's new year today and we still didnt do anything about the cake ! " did i say my sister is cute earlier, i defenitly take that back

"jean, my dear sister, you know even if we didnt make cake this year the world will not change neither will the sun dispear, so please let me off the hook this year, i only slept 3 hours" i said as i put pillow on top of my head.

"thats not fair, making new year cake is like traduction. You cant do that" she said confidently.

By the way i m 23 years old, she's freaking 18 years old and i never won fucking argumment but today i prepared everything to win this one.

"look jean, who s the best ?! Whos the colest ?! Its me and as the colest person this year i brought us cake from" BakingParadise", hhehe now hail for Lez, sis "i stayed all night preparing this line for this moments and belive it's worth it.

" who are you kidding "BakingParadise" cakes go up for 40 000 dollars, how can u get that amount of money, wait " as she was taking jean remmeber it that her brother was saving all his for while money and her eyes started tearing" i thought u been saving that money for your future sob sob"

"Silly don't cry, i mean seeing you happy is worth my money and what future do someone with my condition have i will never leave this room anyway" i said sarcasticly to joke even thought that was the truth.

As said that jean jumped to hug me while hidding her face in my chest.

Jean dream was to be doctor and find cure for her brother one day, hearing him saying that about himself really hurted the little girl.

She left the room with smile in her face to not show her brother who worked hard for that cake that shes a bit sad and left Liz to sleep.

The evening come quickly. The cake arrived at the exact promised time, both siblings stayed on the couch watching tv while wating for thier parents to arrive. They were a bit worried as thier parents did pick up the phone for almost 5 hours but as they knew with the recent events and thier parents job as world class scients, it was a bit busy recently.

"will they be okay ?" jean said to lez with weak voice

"ofc, silly, mom and dad are tough,it s not like the first time the old man forget to charge his phone, hahaha" i said

"but what about mom..?" said jean questioning his arrgument

"just shut up and belive in them, why are you that smart anyway" i said as i was wondering if all my parents gens were saved for my sister.

As they were arrguing, the phone ring and Lez picked with hurry saying "heyyy Dad, where u at ? We really worried"

"hey kid sorry to interput you , this is agent Moras Lionheart with you, i m so sorry to tell you that your parents have left us today,your parents death was national lost, my condelence"

As Lez heard that he was shocked for that one second he remmeber all his moments with his dad and mom, the day his dad build pool inside the house for him so he can swim. The day his mom stayed all night for him reading books because he droped and he was in pain. His eyes started tearing but he collected all his strength and said "how did they die sir ?" he really wanted to know how did his parents die, he wanted to know how his sun faded.

"Sorry, it's national secret that couldnt be told" agent Moras said with cold voice.

"WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THIS MY PARENTS WE ARE TALKING ABOUT HERE, I HAVE ALL RIGHTS TO KNOW" as he was raging on the phone he Heard the dialing declined.

Lez started to gain consicence again and he saw his sister was crying on the floor, she understood whats going on for the conversation and she was crying non stop broken.

In that moments Lez understood that he's all what left for her and she s all what left for him.

He understood he had to be tough for her and swallow his pain and he dropped on the floor huggin her and  trying to comfort her.

After while the sibling were sitted in table with absolute silence until Lez break the ice saying

"let's make cake, the new year cake"

"brother..." said jean with very weak voice

"i was wrong this morning, our world really changed today and our sun have died"he said while he really belived that he may jinxed thier year.

"okay.." said jean and she stood up and did go to the kitechen

And this laddies and gentleman was the saddest cake that ever made in history, it was made by tears and memmories, it was cake that was made to say good bye. Many people will recall this day later as the day of "The Tearing Cake"
