Roy's P.O.V
I silently walked home next to her. What is Caleb doing here? How did he meet Emma? I have a bad feeling.
"Don't you think?" Suddenly Emma is standing in front of me for some reason she seemed angry.
"You are impossible you know!"
"What did I do now?" I asked.
"Why do you insist on walking with me when you are going to ignore me! Caleb would--"
I instantly grabbed her arm. Of all things, I didn't want to be compared to him.
"Ow, you are hurting me!"
"You...Don't ever mention that name in front of me." I said before letting go of her hand.
She looked at me. Those eyes...she is scared of me...
"Look, I'm sor--" Before I completed my apology she ran away.
Darn it, Roy! You let your anger get the better of you.
I wanted to run after her but decided not to. Just like the other times. Immediately a familiar feeling of regret consumed me.
Maybe it's best if I stay away.
I decided to take out my best friend. My phone. I walked home as I played my mobile game.
When I arrived home I found the house awfully quiet. I didn't make much of it and headed to my room to play my game.
Ever since my father made the decision to marry Emma's mother I have hated him. No, I have always hated him. He is the reason why my mother left and why I lost Emma.
If I had it my way, I wouldn't want anything to do with him.
Should I check if Emma is okay? After all, it is my fault.
I got up and decided to check on her.
The door to her room was slightly opened and loud music was coming from the room. Emma was in the middle of the room dancing. She moved her body to the rhythm of the music. She jumped and kicked suddenly. And I laughed silently at the sudden gesture.
"If I see his face again, I'll make sure I give him a kick!!" She yelled. And I laughed again.
"Then you will have to kick harder because those tiny legs aren't going to hurt me," I said from the door.
"You!" She immediately shut the door on my face.
"I am still out here!" I reminded her.
"I know." She said. I could tell she was leaning on the door.
"Emma, I am sorry, I went overboard, "I said apologetically and she opened the door.
"Sure, you hurt me but that's not why I am angry at you. What happened to us? We used to be best friends. You know, I thought even if we are now sibling things wouldn't change a lot. But you changed and you don't even know how I felt when you said you were going away." I could tell by the way she talked that she was hurt.
"Emma, do you..." I gulped nervously. "Do you accept me as your brother?"
"Of course!" Emma said and those words were enough to break me.
"Okay," I said before turning and heading to my room.
