Chapter has a few POV's.
Lily POV
"Daniel your dad and I are heading to the mall, do you want us to get you anything?"
"No thanks I'm good mom." Was her simple response. I was already regretting being here. Her parents convinced me to bring Reina here so they could spend time with her and Kairi. Plus they thought it would be good for me to get out of the house but I would have never came had I known that Danny would be here. I have spoken to her since but not often at all.
" I think you should get out the house though, you've locked yourself in the house for almost three months now. Go get some fresh air, go out with your friends, go on a date or something." She suggested.
"That's okay, I'm fine with being in the house."
"No you're not fine Daniel, look at the state of your room. You're a complete mess! You need to breathe, go outside and speak to someone. Interact with the outisde world and not stay cooked up in this house with your old folks. What happened to that new place you just got a few months agao, huh? You're back to living with your parents? I don't mind having you here but don't shut down everything and everyone. You can only put your life and progress on hold for so long. The world won't stop spinning because you want it to, ever. You need to be stronger than this Daniel, I know you can be. Get up and do something with yourself, do something with your life ! You're 22years old. Leave this for your father and I, we've lived our life we can afford to sit in this house all day thinking of our son and all the what if's and feeling sorry for ourselves but we don't do that because we know God got us." At this point I wish the ground would just open up and swallow me. It felt like Danny's mom was lecturing both of us.
"God ? WHERE WAS GOD WHEN I WAS PLEADING FOR MY BROTHER'S LIFE ?!" Danny yelled and the slap looked like it hit her like a million bee stings.
"You will not disrepect me in my own house, in fact you will not disrespect me ever again for that matter. Watch your tone with me Daniel and watch what comes out of that mouth of yours. You'd be in a better state if you kept faith !" This was the first time that I have ever seen Mama East mad. It was strange and I'm certain this was a rare sight. I was absolutely frozen in shock unaware of how to react to the scene unfolding before me until Danny suddenly burst into tears. I bet she realized that her mom was right. I haven't known Danny to raise her voice at her mom and to bring God into it was way out of line. Their parents are actually quite religious so that line probably seemed more than out of line to her mom. Danny has drowned herself in self pitty and distanced herself from everyone. Not even Chris has heard much from her in a while according to Zizi. In fact she said that he flew in a couple of times to spend some time with her. As more time passed by I suppose she grew numb to everything and just couldn't be bothered by anyone. I know that feeling for sure. Unfortunately I also know that Dave would've hate to see us like this and that just makes it worse but I can't help it, neither can she. Her brother isn't here with us, and it's killing us both slowly.
"Don't cry baby" her mom soothed rubbing her back.
"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry mom." My friend cried. It felt like I was invading an intimate moment. It was uncomfortable. I did not need to witness all of this.
"I know Danny, I know."
"I miss him so much. I just wish he would just open his eyes and appear infront of us with that big smile."
"It will be alright in time, it has to be."
"How could you be so sure."
"I have faith in my God, Dave is still with us. He could even be here right now" She uttered.Danny POV
