Aiden walked me back to Daisy's home and told me goodnight before running back to his house

A student at day and a busy bee that is a star at night

That must be tiring but he loves his work and music, like Cloud who loves to study Astronomy his passion was music

"So what did the two of you do in his home?" Daisy wiggled her eyebrows at me when I entered my room, I found her sitting on my bed reading a comic book

"You're expecting something dirty to happen do you?" I removed my jacket and hung it up on the hook that is placed behind the door

She sighs dramatically "Can't a girl's imagination run wild? You can't expect my brain to be pure, do you?" One brow was raised while she gave me a wry smile

Just like Yara, Daisy also has a search history that was meant to be destroyed if anything happens to her but she didn't mind her parents knowing it

They only said "No college diploma no grandbaby"

Those few words says it all

I rolled my eyes "If I have a drinking bottle and went to church, I'm gonna give you holy water as your water from now on"

Maybe it will wash away your dirty mind

I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face, I felt Daisy standing beside me "Hey Penelope one question"

My hand went to grab a towel to dry my face before facing her "hm?"

"If you were to choose either between Cloud and Aiden, who would you choose in the end?"

Her question made me stand there feeling speechless "I..."

If fate permits I would choose Cloud but in the end, I know our relationship would end anyway, I'm not gonna treat Aiden as a second option

I'm waiting when the right time comes if I can accept Aiden and not feel bad about it anymore

She shakes her head "You know what? I might have overstepped my boundaries, sorry you can or not answer my question if you like"

I nodded at her before entering back into the bedroom and threw myself on the bed "It sure is tiring to go to work after school and it's only my first day"

Daisy also threw herself on the bed beside me, making me jump a little from the force "Yeah I know, also there is a neighborhood dog that runs after strangers. We tend to warn tourist about it"

"So where is that dog located?"

She shrugged at me "I dunno, that dog just walks around wherever it pleases. If he is not familiar with you he will start running after you while barking" she giggled

I went to my luggage and grabbed my laptop to watch some videos on the internet with Daisy, 15 minutes have already passed and I can hear her yawning loudly before she stood up and walked back to her bedroom as she closed the door on her way out

The video we were watching ended and I was supposed to shut down my laptop when I suddenly my photo gallery, I clicked on the file and it shows a lot of pictures I have taken over the years

I opened the picture where it was only me, Cloud, Alice, Will, and Jane

Then I opened another picture of my family all together, my finger went to touch the screen and gazed at the happy faces that were captured by the camera

I miss you all

I felt a tear run down my cheek and fall on my lap

How weird, I was only supposed to have to wipe away one tear but why do more tears keep coming down?

Since it was hard to look away I immediately closed the laptop and put it on the nightstand, my feet touched the cold floor so I can reach my bag and pull out the scarf my parents gifted to me and the book that Cloud brought back from Spain

I went back to bed and wrapped the scarf around me while I hugged the book close to my chest then I covered myself with the duvet

My body moved a little so I can face the window

The stars look pretty tonight although there is no moon, no matter how many stars there are in the sky it always feel incomplete without the moon

The most comfortable position to sleep in that night was the fetal position, it made me warm and gave me a little comfort to help me sleep

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Oddly enough I woke up this morning without my need for the alarm clock, I feel fully refreshed and have a lot of energy

I must have gone to sleep early

I noticed I was still hugging the book and the scarf was around my neck since I woke up too early and I don't think I can sleep anymore, I was the one who prepared breakfast

Olivia and Ted woke up after I finished frying the eggs, they appreciate the little gesture of thanks I made for them as they happily ate the food. Daisy was the last one to wake up and was especially surprised when she found me in the kitchen wearing an apron

"Holy crap you woke up early!?" She said to me out of shock which made me giggle

I used to hate waking up early and always depended on either my sisters or my phone alarm to wake me up

I should do this more often it feels great to wake up early knowing that you sleep early, the morning air from the seaside entered from the window and I have never felt more happier than feeling the wind hit my face

When me and Daisy finished wearing our uniforms, I was surprised to find out that Aiden was waiting for me outside of Daisy's home "Morning Pip, you too Daisy"

"Morning Aiden" Daisy waved at him and I gave him a smile

We went to Mira and Max's home so we all can walk together to school, I knocked at their front door, and the person who answered it was their Mom

She lets us in and told us to wait for the siblings to finish, while we wait in the living room we heard glass breaking and heard someone yell "MY GREEN TEA!" It was a female voice so I know it was Mira

"Mira that's Peppermint tea" we heard Max corrected her

We all looked at each other and our business lead us to the kitchen to see Mira break her teacup and there was a lot of tea spills on the floor, she glared at her brother "I hate you"

Max rolled his eyes "You weren't even planned so I hate you more"

"Ok this is getting personal I think we all should wait for them outside" I pushed Aiden and Daisy out of the home to give them privacy

Aiden cleared his throat and Daisy was playing with the tips of her hair "Well that got awkward" Aiden tried to ease up the weird mood that we three are feeling right now

Daisy nodded at him "You both will get used to it, siblings fights are common"

We heard something fall and we turned to see workers starting to set up the stage and one of them happens to accidentally let go of a hammer that fell on the ground, the locals started decorating the streets with lights "Woah"

I have never seen so many people being so busy for a huge event like a concert and festival at the same time

I pointed to all the workers building up the stage then I looked at Aiden "Are they all the workers your company hired?"

"They're all the people Ruth hired to set up the stage" Aiden went to grab my hand and pulled me to walk with him to get closer to the stage with Daisy walking beside us

Daisy's eyes started to sparkle "I'm excited! Don't you?" She asked me with enthusiasm

"Of course, I am it's Aiden's first concert"

From afar I think I saw Ruth who was busy ordering people what to do for the stage design, Daisy followed my line of sight so she saw Ruth too

There is one more thing that I have noticed, there were more people at the beach than yesterday. A lot of tourists has arrived and the majority of them were here for Aiden's concert

I suddenly felt the chill at the back of my spine again

I should be careful
