Chapter 1 - Chapter One: Mom's Hope

***Jane***

This is going to be a new chapter of my life. Even though I am lifeless. I have no hope of being alive. Yeah, I know I am a strong girl but at least then I had someone to cheer me.

I am always being stuck in my past. I remember every little thing exactly. But why? Why does it all have to happen?? Wh-

Jane's Mom: "Jane! Sweetheart, can you please come down? We need to talk."

Jane:"Yeah, coming mom." ( goes downstairs ) "What happend, mom?"

Jane's Mom:"Look. Sweetheart, I know that you understand and you're trying. But I will neel some help."

Jane:"Uh, okay. Tell me what to do? I will help you."

Jane's Mom:"So, you know that this us the old house of my parents...your grandparents."

Jane:"...Yes"

Jane's Mom:"Uh, so the thing is... well, okay. I will just go to the point. I need you to act like the elder of the house. I know you went through a lot but here, there is only going to me, you and your younger brother. So, while I will be not at home or need some help, you need to help me. Cuz you know I can't handle it all alone."

Jane:I know Mom, you can't do it alone. I know you better than you do yourself.* "Okay, mom. Whenever you're going to need help, I am here for you."

Jane's Mom:"what a relief. You know you're my little sweety baby. You've grohn up so much. Really! Time flies so fast."

Jane: Yeah, sure they do.(in a sadful voice)

Jane's Mom:"Good thing I have you here or else what would i have done. You're my only hope now. You and your brother are left sunshines of my world. Well, I hope you take care of your brother while i am out." (in a hopeful voice)

Jane:"Yeah, sure. Afterall, he's my little boy." I will do anything for him cuz he's the only thing i have left here now**

Jane's Mom:"Honey, you must be so be tired. Go wash up and get some rest, then we will eat lunch."

Jane:"Okay, mom. You should also rest. We can clean the house later... together."

Jane's Mom:"Sure, darling." (says in a happy voice)

Jane:"I am going upstairs. See you later." ( leaves )

********after the getting shower and some rest*******

Jane's pov:

Okay. Even though I know I am depressed about this $hit but still I have to.

Mom is really going through a hard thing. She is crying inside but puts a smile on her face just so we won't be worried.

It's just so scary a beautiful smile can hide. How much pain it can hide with just a simple smile which makes me, us happy.(starts crying)***

But I have to be strong just like elder brother. I have to be the elder of this house while mom's not around. I have to protect my brother.

But...

It's so shocking cuz big bro always protected us but now he's gone. Who's gonna protect us... us now??????

Jane's Mom:"Honey, come down. Dinner's ready."(shouting from downstairs)

Jane:(wipes down her tears**) "Okay, mom. I am coming."

**goes downstairs**

Jane's Mom:"There you are. We have been waiting for you so long. Here's you lunch. Enjoy."

Jane:"Thank you, momo"

Jane's Mom:"Heyy, stop calling me that."

*Jane and her brother Jade both chuckles.

(Yes, like this. Even if u am torn, I have to keep the precious smiles on their face forever. Even if pa and big bro are not around***)
