A small opening opens up and a little gleam of light flashes towards me as my brother peeks through the door.
This is my older brother Alfred, he is a good looking guy with looks, skills, and brawn or I could just basically say he is someone everyone likes as he is the first born son of our family of seven (7) and he is also very matured in every aspect I could think of though I already know why he's here sneaking around so early in the morning.
As he enters the room he notices I'm still asleep not ready for this very special day.
"Hey wake up, we'll need to go now or we won't have another chance to go there for another month."
He gives out a sigh, looking disappointed at how I've managed to ruin my life altogether.
"Hey. I know you wouldn't want to miss this day. This is the most important day for each of us you know."
He scratches the back of his head and knows that what I need isn't comfort but time to heal mentally though I'm really grateful for him being so understanding.
I sit up on the very messy bed, and prepare to go take a bath.
"Why" you ask? Even though I don't really wanna go? It's because I'm always longing this person, always having them in every second of my mind that I don't think I can show myself.
As I enter the bathroom I'm reminded of the exhausted face I have each morning though this is just how everything has been since that day.
my brother and I are about to go, as always he reminds me.
"Remember this day is a very important day, so just keep being yourself and don't lock yourself in your shell."
"Yeah yeah, you know your the only one I can open up to right now."
"Please spare me the drama HAHAHAHAHA!!"
"For real though, I rather go alone there this month."
"So you don't want me to have the opportunity to go there too"
"You can go when you want though, but I have a hectic schedule cause of school."
He stays quiet as though he didn't hear what I said.
We put on our helmets and rode the motorcycle for a few hours to get there.
As we get down from the motorcycle we've e arrived at the very place that I have been reluctant of visiting when I'm with people.
"It been like what? 2 years? "
My brother asked as if he's having doubts to his memory.
"2 years, 176 days, 3 hours, 47 mins to be exact."
I answered calmly, while enjoying the mountain view that is in front of me.
"You and the way you express yourself." He said.
" Hey did you bring a lighter?" my brother asked me firmly.
"Why? Weren't you supposed to be the one to carry that?"
"Aren't you the one that has a lot of pockets?" He said to me sarcastically.
"Good point. Lucky you I grabbed it on the way out. "
As we looked down to ground, our tears pour out like there's no tomorrow.
"Hi Mom! It's been a while." I said while bawling my eyes out.
"Hi Mom! We're doing great!!! I'm sure your doing great there too! But don't worry I'll keep an eye on this troublemaker of yours."
My brother lights the candle he was holding and we sit beside the stone marker of our mother reminiscing about the old days.
"It sure is a wonderful spot huh?" My brother commented.
"Well I guess she really thought of this when she picked this spot huh?"
" I love you Mom, you have always been and will always will be in our my minds. "
We spent the entire sunrise on that spot that morning.
