"I think the hardest part
of losing someone, isn't having to say goodbye,
but rather learning to live without them.
Always trying to fill the void,
the emptiness that's left inside
your heart when they go." -sd
Noah
I was flabbergasted when I saw the person in front of me. Seconds could have passed, maybe minutes, until the person spoke.
"Are you going to let me in?" The person asked.
Snapping put of my daze, I quickly moved out of the way and said, "Come in."
It wasn't until I noticed the luggage that the person was pushing with one hand that I realized this was actually reality.
"You're actually here!" I exclaimed excitedly. I was happy to see him. From what I heard the other day it sounded like he would not come back in a while.
I was wrong, because he is right in front of me.
My brother was back.
"Well yes, Logan in the flesh, right in front of you. Did you miss me?" My brother said.
I smiled, "Of course I did."
"Here take this, I brought you some hot chocolate from the café close by." He said handing me both cups.
I grabbed the cup holder and led him to living room.
"Make yourself comfortable." I say as I go to the kitchen to place the drinks on the marble.
"Still reading, huh." He says and I turn to see him pick up the book from the couch and examined it.
"Here, I'm guessing this is yours." I hand him the cup that smelled like coffee.
Logan lets go his luggage and grabs the cup from my hand.
"I thought you were going to stay for another month." I say as we both sit down on opposite couches.
He takes a sip of his coffee before answering, "I was but I missed mom and dad, Emily and Cole. And you of course, my favorite brother." He says leaning into the couch.
"I'm your only brother." I say and he laughs.
I take a sip of the hot chocolate and my eyes widened in recognition. It tasted just like last time. The same taste wrapping me in its warmth.
"Who made this?" I asked.
"The worker at the café, I'm guessing. It was a girl." He says and I take that piece of information and save it.
"Why?" He asks.
"All the times I have ordered hot chocolate, it has never tasted this great. Until Emily and Cole brought me some hot chocolate last time they were here." I say savoring my beverage.
"They probably changed the recipe. We can go tomorrow if you want." He says and a few seconds pass before asking, "How are Emily and Cole doing?"
"Those two hooligans are the same. Being loud and fighting with each other." I say as I smile at the memory from the last time I saw them.

Romance"I don't believe you." Noah said. I don't believe myself either. I thought. "Well, you should because I'm not lying. You thought I felt something for you. But, you were wrong. I feel nothing for you" I said with a monotone voice pretending to be bra...
