“Luna, I think it’s time to come out of your room, you haven't left since we came back. Which was 6 hours ago!”. She’s been acting like this ever since we ran into Emmanuel. The only way I know that will get her to leave will cause my death.
“Listen baby sister, I know you ‘Love’ Emmanuel so, so much but cant you come on out and spend time with your better looking sibling”.
The air thickened, color became washed, my heart felt as if it was ready to jump out my chest. I Understood the reason when I saw her, her door slowly creeped open, hostility filling the air. The scene appearing in front me would normally have a viewer discretion warning, but here I was facing death at the door itself.
“I am ready, for the sake of mankind. But Luna, you know I was just kidding right… right?”. Nothing I say will get into her head, this hot headed woman has more murderous intent than a wild cat right now, I could only beg for life.
“Oh, que…….”

“You know you didn’t need to beat me this bad, my entire face is swollen for god’s sake.” I said holding a bag of frozen peas on the left side of my face, wishing I didn't bother talking to her.
“YOU WERE THE ONE WHO ANNOYED ME, YOU BASTARD!” The beast kept shouting toward me, as if the beating wasn't enough. As her anger vanished, she took a seat beside me and stared at the floor. “I’m sorry, I’m just stressed out”
“I'm sorry what, y-you're sorry”. I flinched to only see Luna staring at the floor, paying no mind to my words. It felt off for my ice queen of a sister.
“What’s wrong, you’re acting as if you have emotions”.

“Lucas, I have a question. Who was that woman with Emma, I remember the last thing she said was, she was his wife. B-But how, when, why, where.”
“Who, are you, but Luna I don't actually know. First time in life I'm as lost as you. We’re just gonna have to wait and see the results of that situation.” Her head didn’t raise. I could see it wasn’t an answer she wanted, but it's the only one I could’ve given her.
“I want to think it over for a while”. She seemed in higher hoops, so I didn’t say what I was thinking.
“Want dinner? We have peas”

“Ready yourself for utter defeat. I have picked out each ingredient we’ll need to use. Welcome to my H⚫ll’s Kitch⚫n.” I didn’t understand what brought this up, but the smile she had I wanted it to stay. I couldn’t just let her down.
“I guess I'll just have to win so that ego of yours can disappear.” I rolled my sleeves up, ready for the competition. We were meant to make anything with the six things she picked out, Eggs, An onion, Tomato, Bread, Bacon and Bell peppers, which I loathed to use.
She took my phone, starting a twenty minute timer as the finishing time.
As she pulled a hair tie out I couldn’t stop staring at her, she pulled her black silk hair into one. As she smiled, readying herself, I couldn’t help but smile along.
She turned her head, and words that I never expected came.
“I love you”
What did she say?
“Three”
Why would she say that now?
“Two”
Why does it feel as if my heart is skipping beats
“One”
Real fair play Stella.
“Start”
