‘Do we have everything packed?’ he questions me from outside. I am in the kitchen having a bowl of cereal. ‘I think so’ I say as I bring the last spoon of the cereal to my mouth. ‘We have to get going right about now’ he adds. ‘I am almost done’ I say getting up from one of the high chairs and placing the bowl in the sink.
Taking one look at the room, I grab my jacket from the armchair and grab the keys. Closing the door, I rush to get into the car, as I notice that Christian is already inside waiting for me.
‘Finally, are you nervous?’
‘Maybe a little’ I confess. Who wouldn’t be after all, I am about to spend about one week with my sister whom I didn’t know about until recently. He leans in to place a small kiss on my cheek and then starts the car and we are off. He drives off onto the road. I notice Christian give me a sympathetic smile from the driver’s seat.
