What goes around comes around

“I told you to knock before you come in.” Jared groaned from his position on the bed, the light now beaming down on him – far too bright after a night of drinking. He grabbed his pillow and threw it across the room towards his sister. “You’ll save yourself a lot of nightmares.” He joked before pulling the covers back over his head to shield his eyes from the light.

“My eyes! They burn!” Shae exclaimed dramatically as she covered her eyes in an attempt to protect her eyes, though when she noticed the pillow heading in her direction she attempted to dodge it laughing. “Why are you still in bed?”

Crouching down on the side of the pavement, Brody held out his hand to the small cat that had been following him for the best part of ten minutes. He had finally given up and decided to give it some attention. It took little consideration before the cat nuzzled into the wizard and a smile found its way to his lips. “You happy now, little man?” He asked it, shaking his head and chuckling lightly as the cat moved further towards him.

“You know he’ll never leave you alone now.” She stated with a smile as she watched from the doorway of the shop she had just walked out of. “You’ve more than likely just gained yourself a new pet.”

Natalia looked at the couple, grimacing slightly. “Looks to me like they need interrupting anyway.”

“Well, yes... but not by me.” Her eyes widened at the thought. “I don’t want to interrupt them. What if they pull me into it.” Her tone came out panicked though she still kept it whispered.

“I always make good points.” He replied, a cheeky smile on his lips. “Envy will get us nowhere though.”

“Are you sure? That’s not the impression I got.” She teased. “It’s something we all feel though, even if we don’t want to.” She gave him a sad smile. 

“Are you alright there?” Natalia asked with a tilt of her head, noticing the girl was slowly lowering herself into her chair. It would not be long until she hit the floor.

“I need an escape route. I don’t want to interrupt them.” She whispered as she nodded her head in the direction of the couple.

“Did I say they did?” He asked with raised brows, a crooked smile reaching his lips, in hope to make her smile.

“I suppose not, you make a good point. I envy those that do though.” 

    “Sometimes it’s worth thinking positively, even if the outcome looks mostly negative.”

“I don’t think everyone finds it that easy.”
