Note : hey guys am kind of in a bad mood today just because some family crisis arises and I hate the energy of being overwhelmed by that kind of energy.... Am just trying to keep it cool and all that shit but things are getting worse and it is getting to me in a worse possible way.
But I won't let it effect my book so you just sit back and enjoy but if you see a part that seem that my character gets angry just know that it was my mood that got changed.
**************************************
Luke got up a little late than usual cause he slept pretty late last night trying to figure himself out which he did but couldn't fully understand what he got.
He dragged himself to take his bath and dragged himself to the closet to get dressed for today which was Monday. His weekends were not convenient for him to have fun because he had to figure things out between him and Nathaniel.
Later he heard a light knock on his door he answered the door figuring out it was his mom that was at his door.
"oh hey.... Hi mom" he paused while letting her in his room "so what's up good morning" he finished his words before going to continue his dressing for school.
"good morning baby, I was actually coming to call you for breakfast and wake you up from bed. I don't know what you were doing for your weekends but you looked so pale yesterday and I later figured out that you slept late..... So that was what I wanted to do..... And ask you if anything was disturbing you. you know" she paused but couldn't continue anymore with her words.
"I will tell you why I was busy with stuff on my weekends without going out some other time but now am almost late for class but I promise I will tell you. You don't have to worry about it ok, now can we go down for breakfast please." Luke said with his glasses put on.
His mother chuckled at his actions" am just saying cause am feeling you on a crossroad in your decision and that you can confine in me. Am always here for you to listen" she said with an encouraging smile on her face.
"thanks mom, I love you. Now can we just go downstairs for breakfast am hungry"
"you are welcome and I love you too so don't you forget that....." she said while walking out of his room down to the stairs with Luke behind her. "and one more thing. Love the hair color makes you look cool"
He smiles softly "thanks mom. I did it maybe cause I wanted something new" he answered calmly as they walked down the stairs making their way to the dining room where the rest of the family were.
"look who finally made it to the table..... What were you doing nerd freak. Sleeping to well in bed????" his sister Tia asked sarcastically.
Luke just smiled her and replied rudely than ever before "oh yeah I slept well. But last time I checked I wasn't your problem Jonathan is and the kid next door that you hook up with every Friday frog face or should I say sneaky parasite" he finished with a smirk before taking his sit.
"**SHIT** you piece of...."
"shut it up all of you" Blake screams shutting Tia down before she finishes her words. One thing he learnt was that Luke always have something more sinister that gets under people's skin "I just want to eat in peace right now".
"at least should someone not talk about his hair coloration" Tia barked back.
At that moment their father and Blake raised their heads up to take a look at Luke with surprise eyes.
"Luke you what now when and why????" Blake asked
"is non of your fucking business ok.... So leave me alone"
Just then his father chuckles before giving Luke a scorned full look "I see... You know what boy when you get back we will have to talk of your unruly character you have been bringing up lately. And before you get back Change your hair color back to it's original color" he said before looking back down on his phone.
"I won't do that, never ever changing my hair color back cause it brings me back to my past and it makes me tie to you guys" Luke said shocking everyone on the table except for his mom. She knows her son too well.
"what did you say you little brat." Luke's father screamed from his end of the table.
"hon not now.... OK please" Luke's mom plead with her husband but he was too angry to hear her out.
"you spoiled him Kate. You listen to his every demand" he shouted to his wife.
"me. you are putting the blame on me. Dan are you serious now, you made him feel small now you shift the blame to me" Luke's mom shout's back to her husband.
He laughed and turned to Luke "see what you caused you little freak of nature"
Luke stood up "yeah. You caused thus your self you old man" he paused but continues with his words "I did everything to get your trust again. I was the star of the family. I was your star but now you call me a problem. You insult me when you feel like it and it is annoying sometimes but I tend to overlook it all claiming it will all end but no it gets worse".
By this time things just got worse. The dinner table was turned into a war zone and it was heating up real fast.
"family calm down.... Please let's keep it together" Blake tried to calm the situation
"son stay out of this it is between me, your mother and your brother. You too Tia stay out of this all" Dan said to his son.
"you are nothing without your mom and your gramps. You are always going to be behind your brother, your think that getting degrees upon degrees will make your future or will give you an advantage over your brother no it can't and get that into your little head and grow up from your fantasies " he finished his words before turning to walk away but was stopped by the words of Luke in that instant.
" you think I care of your insulated words of insults. I do not give a fuck one bit and you think because your son is a basketball player will give him an edge in life no it won't and that is a fact to life and you know what I have more advantages than him..... Your son won't make it to the final or be in the game if it wasn't for me and he wouldn't be recognised by anyone at all get that into your own head old man." he started making his way towards his father "Now I have made up my mind that what ever consign Blake am off it his grades and all if he gets into trouble with the teachers again am off it too I have a life outside you all." he shouted at his father's face before walking out to the door and opened it but waited to finish what were in his mind..... " and from now on I have nothing to do with Blake and I will never ever not this time am taking everything he has ever taken from me. My freedom, my name, my happiness, my work and there is nothing you two can do about it not this time".
His father got really mad and screamed "you will regret this, all of it"
Luke just smile and answers to his old man's words "I will regret nothing you hear me am better off with out you two and beside I have only two years more to stay and listen to all these bull craps..." he said before slamming the door behind him.
Kate their mom shouted at Dan her husband "happy now. You are always a problem to that boy and me, am sick and tried of talking to you and having to correct you at every moment in time..... Fix this family before something happens to this family" and she matches out of his presence.
"Kate the family has always been divided you know" he screams after her.

And he closed his phone and switch it off to avoid anyone from getting to him with call or text he needed some space at this moment in time.
As from Tonight everything was going to start with him and end with him. No one else matters at this moment.
He got up and went to his car driving down out of the park driving to God know's where. He just wanted to live that place for a while and isolate himself from everyone he ever knew.
....
When he entered the house late midnight he had swollen eyes that he had used in crying all day till this time.
"Luke I wanna to talk to you....." mom said.
He just continue walking making his way passed her going to his room.
"son a so so so sorry about what happened this morning, hey Luke hear me out." she said following him up to his room
In that moment he stopped walking and turned to his mom and said "mom. I matter, don't I ???"
"of course you matter to me and everyone you know that..... Son you matter to me know that OK"
"so why do dad hate me.... Why do Blake who is my twin hate me..... Why does Tia hate me why????" he asked looking down.
"I don't know darling.... But forget them now ok mommy is here....." she hugged him and he started crying again on her shoulder "there, there.... Let it all out am here for you. Am proud of you and most of all I love you don't you forget that...."
"thanks mom....." was all he could say.
Not too long he fell asleep within his mom's arms around him for he felt safe in that warmth and he was not willing to let go now.
.....
He wake up feeling tired to get out of bed so he just lay back down not caring to go out today.
He took out his phone, screwing up and down without looking at anything in particular. He just use it to distract himself from the pain he went through yesterday and over the years.
All he just felt at the moment was an emptiness that creeps even his mom that stood there for a long time watching her son lying on the bed with his phone in hand and not aware of his environment, it breaks her heart.
"Hey son....."
"good morning mom and how long where you standing them???" he asked.
"stood here for too long watching you but said nothing"
Signed before talking again "mom. What do you want????...."
Author's Note :
It was painful. Too painful to write this down as Luke's father talk him to trash even trying to make him see himself small to the world.
It was also interesting for Luke to talk back to his father standing up for himself without care. But it still hurt me to write that down.
Luke is just like me always talked down upon and look like he is nothing but I had to stand up for myself as he stood up for himself too.
We just feel connected both in love with our male best friend but never said a thing. To dark huh. Alone with our feelings and emotions.
But enough of this depressing side I hope you enjoyed it and you cried and all. But know that the next chapters will be happy and all that shit but don't keep your hope high cause I don't know if I will write the next chapters soon enough but I will try my best..... But love to you all my lovies.
Love you all guys. drop your comments and insights down below and don't forget to vote, like, share and support me my lovies.
