Hendrix and Mira arrived at the airport, Hashim and amber were together to receive them.
The four were happy to see each other bit on the way home silence suddenly filled the car.
How was your trip? amber asked breaking the silence.
It was fine Mira said,
Did you have fun she implored?
Yes, we did she said, we had lots of fun did we not she looked at Hendrix who smiled and was in accord.
He could not wait to hear what his brother had to tell him but he wanted then to get a place, a really good place, and then they would talk about it like adults or kids whichever way would serve their purpose.
He peered through the privacy glass and he watched the buildings move past them,
He always did like it as a child and he thought the building was moving instead of them.
But now he knew better.
the car pulled in front of a general store, amber and Philip went in to get some groceries.
While the rest remained in the car, now that those two were gone the silence became more awkward and had him decided to and outside of the car, his phone rang and he did not pick it up he just waited for it to finish ringing he knew who it was.
It was his mother, the one who caused all the headaches he is passing through right now
She was worried even after he told her he was okay and in New York.
He told her not to worry when she called, he needed the air he said and she agreed but now she called five times daily, and when he did not pick up,
he would see hamzah call him afterward, he knew hamzah was taking the brunt gor him not wanting to speak to her always but he had no choice, he only wants her to he is grown and able to take care of himself.
He hoped she would understand.
Amber and Philip walked towards them with bags in. Their hands, Philip opened the trunk and they dumped it all in the van.
Amber got knees from the doctor that she was pregnant, she was happy and sad all at once.
She did not tell Antonio because she did not know how he would react to it
She told him she was taking the morning after pill
And now this maybe she missed it once or twice she could not tell.
She was thinking about it because of the silence, she raised her hand got hold of the stereo bitten and soon music was playing on the radio.
It was better this way she could not handle the. Silence anymore.
But her thoughts did not go away she was feeling sad and she knew somewhere she would feel loved just by being there, she was going to go see aunt rosa and Dante
But first she jas to see how these boys settle themselves.
They were all now at ambers place, the girls took the groceries to the kitchen and began to stock the fridge they chatted as they did that,
