“seriously, your just too cute. How could I not bye you things?”


“You could have bought your self stuff,” I suggested.


“And I did, just not as much as what I got you. You have no idea Mi, when you are happy it makes me happy, I would buy you the earth to make you smile.”

I smiled, I couldn’t help it. Arabella made my life what it was. Her soft skin, her curly hair, her eyes, her lips, her voice. I leant over and touched her hand on the gear stick of her car; Penny Peugeot her pride and joy. It was bright yellow and always clean and sparkling, the inside was soft and cozy and smelt like jelly beans. I snuggled into the seat and closed my eyes looking over at my beautiful sister. She was perfect. It didn’t matter about the rest of the world. I could always live beside her.


“I love you,” I said smiling at her again.


“I love you to. I mean look at that face, what would I do if anything ever happened to that face?” Arabella smiled smoothing one finger down my right cheek.


“It’s nothing special” I said in a groan, tucking my black hair behind my ears. Arabella laughed. .

When I opened my eyes Arabella was slumped over the steering wheel her chest crushed, a single line of blood dripping out her mouth and ear. Then there was the screaming; a high piercing scream. My scream.
