Some one new

I walk over to the kitchen and don't find a single thing to put into my stomach, my stomach is grinding and I think it's fair, it's been about thirteen hours since I put something in it, and I'm dying.It kinda makes me miss Ma. I travel back to my dark room and stumble on clothes all over the floor, I remind myself to clean them up after chewing on something.

I look over to the window and realise how stupid I am. I find some loose change in a trouser I wore about a week ago.

I go to the store and buy something to eat after which I eat and I don't know how I end up on my bed again but I sleep for the rest of the day.

" Bro wake up " Luke keeps on shaking me from sleep.

" I'm up, I'm up " I say to him mostly so he can let go of me.

" It's time to party " I look at him and he is smirking.

" I'm not going " I say and feel I need to sleep again.

" No bro, the party has come to you " he taps me on the chest.

" What ? " I don't think I got whatever he just said to me.

" I've invited her over " he smirks again.

" I'm sorry, who ? " I ask and sit straight on the bed.

" Tina "

" Tina ? "

" Yeah some chick you're gonna see her " he says and stands up.

" Now, shower and put on some clean clothes, I don't want her assuming I'm disorganized like my roommate " he looks at himself and confirms he's smart, lately he likes looking good all the time. " This room, we're gonna keep it locked so hurry up," he looks at his watch. " She will be here in thirty minutes, so hurry " he moves out of my cave.

I'm not sure I know who is coming, but that's me I always care little about what's going on around me.

I do as instructed, I take a shower and find some clean clothes, I find it difficult to identify the clean clothes from the dirty ones so I use my nose, I fail to find something in favour of my nose so I go to Luke's room and pick something there. I head to the living after I'm done. " You're done, perfect timing " he smiles as soon as he sees me. The smile slowly creeps away as I came closer to him.

" Is that my shirt ? "

" Couldn't find something good from mine " I smile and hope he will let it go.

" I told you, don't wear my stuff bro "

" Just for today "

" That's what you said last time, you're a grown up man..." I know he's gonna start giving me one of he's talks.

" Just for today "

" Don't..." I'm saved by the ring is his phone. " Wait a second " he says and picks it up.

" Hello "

" You're at the door "

" Okay give me a sec " he says and suddenly his mood is brightened up.

He sniffs on himself and walks to the door after.

I feel hungry. I walk to the kitchen and find some snacks and chew on those. I hear a soft voice and giggles. I also hear Luke use a softer tone than that he normally uses.

" Hey bro " he comes to me in the kitchen and calls me to take a look at the girl he's just brought home.

I peek from the kitchen and see her fidgeting with her Iphone.She is brown, long black hair, short shorts and a pink blouse and I think she has a applied a lot of make up than she should've.

" So what do you think ? " Luke asks me.

" I thought you were bringing the other one " I say.

" Who Viola ? " he says and I don't know who Viola is but I accept.

" Oh we broke up " he says comfortably.

" So who's she ? " I ask even though I know I won't remember her name after today.

" She's Mary " he says and looks at her smiling.

" What do you think ? " he asks again.

He always asks me whenever be makes me meet one of his conquests. He doesn't know that I only see one girl.

" Bro you need to settle, you change girls, like what, every week " I say as a matter of factory.

" What ? You want me to like fall in love and that stuff " he laughs a little.

" No way look at where that got you " he says and I feel like punching him in the neck.

" So ? Viola ? " He grins.

" She's " I try to find a word to use.

" She's not bad " I say.

" Fair enough " he says and rushes over to the freezer.

He picks three bottles of vodka and hands them to me.

He picks other three and signals me to head to the living room.

I look at the bottles and remind myself not to even take a sip, not even smell them.
