Trapped In Her Heart

Aside from the fact that both of them were always mentally pressured by their parents, Ava knew that it was more tough for Sebastian. There were times when she used to skip the scheduled routines, sneak out of the house and have fun with her best friend, June but Sebastian was different. He had always been punctual and someone who followed the rules since he was young. Even now when he was living all by himself, Ava couldn't believe that he still followed a schedule.

"Well, apart from the fact that I cannot go anywhere even if I want to, I also don't want to waste my time thinking about doing things which are never going to happen." Sebastian had always been this way. He knew he couldn't run away because he had responsibilities in his shoulder and there was no way he could leave things unattended.

Rolling her eyes at him, Ava made her way towards the couch. "I am just tired of this boring life, I wish I could do something nice and exciting. I wish I could be free for at least a week."

Thinking for quite some time, Sebastian got up and followed Ava.

Sitting down beside her, Sebastian said, "Come here."

"What? You wanna give me big brother hugs now? Where were these hugs when I needed them in the morning?" Ava asked.

"You want it or not?" Sebastian asked.

Ava vigorously nodded his head and curled up in his brotherly embrace.

C.a.r.e.s.sing her head, Sebastian asked, "What if I give you something that you want?"

"What do you mean?" Ava asked.

"Well, mom and dad are going away for two months tomorrow or maybe more so after they leave, it's just you and me." Sebastian explained.

When Ava gave him an excited look, Sebastian continued, "I give you two whole months or may be more. Hmm let's just say, until they come back, you have the liberty to do anything that you want. You can go wherever you want and do anything you feel like. You can party around without any restrictions, in short, no rules or responsibilities for you until they come back."

When Ava excitedly squealed, Sebastian interrupted her, "But you are not allowed to get into trouble, do not break any laws, no doing drugs and stay away from creepy boys who only want to get into your pants."

Hugging his neck, Ava screamed excitedly, "Ahhhh Seb, you are the best big brother in the whole world. I love you so much. Wait, you'll finance everything right?"

"You want me to write a cheque for you right now?" Sebastian asked.

"Ahhhh you are awesome. I'll go call June and tell her about it." Grabbing her phone, Ava quickly called her best friend.

Seeing his sister all happy and excited, Sebastian smiled and patted her head before walking towards the dining table to finish his meal.

…..

Ellie's apartment.

With her eyes half open, Ellie received Melissa's call and g.r.o.a.n.e.d in frustration. "For God's sake Mel, it's 2am and normal people sleep at this hour."

"Geez lazy a.s.s, Noah and I have dinner at this time sometimes. Anyway, I called you to tell you a very exciting and good news."

"Are you pregnant?" Ellie asked.

Melissa chuckled and helplessly shook her head. "No dumbo, you aren't gonna be an aunt this soon."

"Then what kind of good news are you talking about?"

"Did you check your mails?" Melissa asked.

"Why the hell would I check my mails at 2am? Look Mel, maybe you are feeling all energetic and lively after your make out session but I am feeling dizzy and angry because you woke up when I was supposed to be sleeping."
