Nalani

We have 2 bedrooms in the hut my parents have 1 room, leo and Orion share the fold out couch in the living room and I have the other bedroom, I used to share it with Nalani who had just turned 17 I loved sharing with lani we were complete opposite she was a blond and I was brown haired she had blue eyes I had brown eyes (mom says I have cow eyes, I'm never sure if its meant to be a compliment or an insult)she love to cook and clean she would help mom with the twins and she couldn't wait to get married she was 4 years older then me and always scolded me telling me I should "act more ladylike,or I'd never find a husband ","but I dont want a husband eww gross"to which she would shake her head at me and carry on with her chores, I prefured to be outdoors hunting or wrestling with the twins, she was my best friend and mommas princess she was the kindest ,gentelest person anyone ever met .then one day I was hunting in the woods alone father said at 14 years old I was old enough to hunt by myself ,I was so happy I had caught 3 rabbits and a wild Turkey,we would have a feast tonight.

I stepped out of the woods singing a nonsense song about the feast we would have that night,that's when I saw my parents father was holding mom I smiled and waved the limp rabbits in the air and yelled "hey look what's for dinner tonight "my smile faltered something was wrong I could see the twins peeking through the window tears streaming down there faces, mom was nearly collapsed against father ,father was holding her up looking in the distance,I turned to see what he wa looking at and there driving away down the lane was a shiny black car with blacked out windows.
