Mum led me to a nearby chair, leaving my nana and cousins behind. "Sit, let's talk"
I opened my mouth and exhaled, getting a little worried.
Ever since Barry and Pete arrived in nana's packhouse, all I've been doing was think about the past I tried so much to bury and when I thought I could finally have my mind free of those memories, my mum asked to get her filled in.
"So, I'm listening" she said, now sitting on a chair beside me, giving me her sweet smile.
"Mum..." I paused and sighed heavily "It's not exactly what you think"
"Are you telling me that the way you and Barry stared at each other minutes ago when he had your waist held in his...."
"Okay, mum, mum" I quickly stopped her, making her laugh and that made me turn into an overripe tomato.
"I still need you to talk to me, Pixie, a brief explanation can do. I need to know what's going on in your life, why everyone else has got a mate or boyfriend except you"
