Grown Back

I was on my way home yesterday when my parents called and told me that the left for the night and I am in charge of the house while they were away. I was ecstatic that I have the house all to myself until I remembered that my brother was home for the holidays.

It was close to becoming a party night for me and my friends! Anyway, I went home without a hurry. I know that I will serve as my brothers maid when I get home so I just spent my deliberately slow walk to think of the dinner that I will be cooking.

When I opened the front door, a great scent immediately came toward me and I was excited and scared. Excited that the smell was fantastic and scared that a stranger is cooking inside the house.

So anyway I walked to the kitchen and to my great surprise, My brother was there cooking what looked like to be one of the greatest meal that ever was in our kitchen.

It turns out that my brother is a culinary arts student in college. The days I though I saw him writing essays were really him taking down recipes, I had no idea because we barely talk. It was then that I realized that we have been pushing away each other from our lives and we have grown apart from each other.

Its really nice that I was able to spend time with my brother and hopefully catch-up on each others lives.
