Moving Day ||
"Whew I'm finally done packing" Amelia says to herself, as she lifts her head to look at her brother a warm smile made it's way across her lips as she is met by the sight of her brother already fast asleep on her bed " how cute " she says to herself . A yawn escapes her mouth after putting away her boxes of clothes and other belongings beside the door of her room she then lies on the bed and stares at the old cycling of her room thinking of how she is going to face a new environment and new people too "people " she whispers to herself as a lone tear made it's way past the eyes down to her ears as she is lying on the bed " people don't like me so I'll not like them back" she says sadly as she scoops her brother into her arms and drifts of to sleep
" Kriiing kriiing kriiing" Amelia shoots her eyes open at the sound of her alarm ringing and reaches for it to stop it " so annoying" she says and turns to her brother still sleeping beside her and smiles " looks like an angel" she says and rushes off to the bathroom to do her business
She exits the bathroom after she is done and wakes up her little brother " wake up Kylie, wake up or we will leave you behind" little Kyle rubs his eyeballs as he sits on the bed and smiles at his sister " good morning Amie" he says in his childish voice " good morning Kyle come on let me bath you soon we will be leaving" " ohh okay" he stretches his little arms to his sister and she picks him up and heads for the bathroom
Downstairs
" Honey don't worry too much okay the kids understand why we have to move to a new house okay" Mrs Cylia says as she holds the hands of her husband Mr Marcus Bane as he worriedly looked upstairs where his kids are " I'm sorry for all this my love I will not let you guys regret moving I'll job hunt again and again to provide a better life for you all" he says as he looks at his wife with love in his eyes. He hugs her and after a short time she gets back to preparing breakfast for everyone
"Amelia, Kyle come down for breakfast" Mrs Cylia calls as she sets the table with the assistance of Mr Marcus Bane her husband " coming mom"
" Kyle I just combed your hair" Amelia whines as Kyle messes up his hair and giggles " I love it when you do my hair Amie" he says while giggling " come on mom is calling for us for breakfast " "okay " Kyle says as he takes his sisters hand and they head downstairs

" Kids what do you think about the new place?" Mr Marcus asks his children while his wife holds his Left arm as they stare at the house in front of them
Amelia looks at the house from outside it is huge and painted in grey she walks to the backyard to be met by a beautiful garden and a swing beside the house under a shade plus a tree at the middle of the garden
She was stunned first the house is huge and beautiful then the garden too which is beautiful she screams in joy and hugs her parents who were walking behind her in joy " I love the house" she screams and asks " dad you said you lost your job so how were you able to get this cool house" she asks
He dad laughs and says " I have been eyeing this house for a really long time now so I was saving for it since before I lost my job"
He adds " I know you love flowers so I knew you would definitely love the house right my love " he asks his wife
" Yes" she replies smiling brightly " I love you both" Amelia says hugging both her parents " hey me too " little Kyle says as he runs and joins in the family hug
" Time to unpack and choose rooms"Mrs Cylia says. " Last one in is a rotten egg Kyle" Amelia says as she runs into the house with Kyle following behind yelling " no fair you started first"
Mrs Cylia and Mr Marcus both had contented smiles on the faces as the look at their children running to the house " they grew so fast" she says as she wipes a lone tear which escaped her eyes Mr Marcus turns his wife to face him and wipes off her tears and kisses her forehead " they really have" he says " lets make another" he adds and laughs as Mrs Cylia hits his chest and slightly blushes " let's go inside" she says and runs inside Mr Marcus Bane laughs even more as he sees his flustered wife running into the house to escape him
