Nova woke up the next morning. He walked downstairs in his boxers to see Angel and Mum eating already. He groggily went to the fridge and took out a milk carton and pouring it into a glass. He took the glass and sat down.
"Hey Nova!" Angel said brightly.
"Hey..." He whispered groggily.
"Someone is tired. Do you want some pancakes?" Mum asked calmly.
Nova nodded his eyes half open. Mum got up and put some blueberry pancakes she had made earlier. She set the plate on the wooden table in front of Nova and passed the syrup across the table. Nova opened the cap with a yawn and drowned his pancakes in syrup. He took his fork cutting a piece of pancake and stuffing it into his mouth. A bit of syrup dripped down his chin. Angel laughed at the sight. Mum picked up a napkin handing it to him. Nova glared at Angel then wiped away the syrup. Mum looked over to Nova.
"We're going to the beach today. Do you want to come?" Mum smiled calmly.
"Sure. That would be nice." Nova whispered trying to be kind.
"My husband has an extra pair of swim trunks so don't worry." She said brightly.
Nova nodded then got up putting his dish in the sink. He walked up to his room and sat down o the edge of his bed. He grabbed a pair of shorts which littered his floor and an orange T-shirt. The shorts were a little big and the cloth went down to his knees. He walked into Pops' room.
"Hey...Mum said you had an extra swim trunk." He said calmly with a little yawn.
Pops walked out of his closet wearing a hunter green swim trunk with a white T-shirt. He held a pair of teal blue trunks in his hand. He threw them to Nova. He didn't say anything.
"Thanks." Nova said turning around and heading back to his room.
He figured he had better try them on to see if they fit. He took off his shorts and tried on the trunks. He gently pulled them up to his waist. Pops was very fit, but he had big bones. He had sandy blond hair with specks of white. The swim trunks hung loosely to his waist. They were a little big but Nova knew he would manage. He was taking off his trunks when Angel walked into his room.
"Oh I'm sorry. I thought you were done." She said embarrassed.
Nova sighed and quickly changed into his shorts.
"It's ok, but next time knock first."
Angel nodded then timidly said. "I guess I am not used to you being here." She said with a laugh. "I need the beach bag in your closet." She said pointing towards the door in the corner.
She walked over to the door and went inside grabbing the black bag. "Sorry." She repeated then left the room.
Nova walked out the door with the trunks in his hand. He was awake now. He went to the bathroom and roughly shook his hand in his hair. Hair combed... He thought with a smirk. He walked downstairs and put his trunks in the bag then sat down on the couch in front of the television and turned on the news waiting for the weather.
Today a girl was found dead. She was buried along the beach. Her head was found 5 yards from her body. The suspect murderer was the girls father Mr. Jim Harley. He is currently being interrogated. Now time for the weather. Today will be sunny, sunny, and sunny! With a high of 85 and a low of 77. A few clouds but mostly just sunny. Tomorrow...
Nova turned off the television. He didn't need to know tomorrows forecast. He took everything one day at a time. He went upstairs to help. When he walked into Pop's and Mum's room he was greeted with Angels smile.
"Hey it’s going to be nice today." He said with a little happiness in his voice.
"Great!" Angel said happily.
Mum looked up from her computer with a smile. "That's good. We will leave in 5 minuets. As soon as I am done with this."
Mum was an architect and spent most of her time either drawing or crunching numbers on her computer. She was a skinny woman with a bony face. She had long red hair which shimmered in the light giving her an eerie red glow.
Pops looked up from his computer. "We'll be down in 5 minuets. You guys go downstairs." He said in a calm low gruff voice.
It was the first time Nova had heard his voice. Pops had been a quiet man. He was almost always on his computer doing something Nova never understood. Nova had given up on trying to get to know the families which fostered him. He normally only stayed with them for a month because he always did something wrong whether it be his fault or not. Nova nodded then walked down stairs. Angel followed him her golden blond curls bouncing on her shoulders. Nova went into the study and grabbed a book then lounging on the couch starting to read.
"Why read? They are just going to be 5 minuets." Angel said slightly confused.
"Whenever adults say 5 minuets they mean 30 minuets." Nova calmly said with a little irritation in his voice.
"But Mom always keeps her word. She never lies." Angel said desperately.
Nova rolled his eyes continuing to read.
"Hey Nova!" Angel said brightly.
"Hey..." He whispered groggily.
"Someone is tired. Do you want some pancakes?" Mum asked calmly.
Nova nodded his eyes half open. Mum got up and put some blueberry pancakes she had made earlier. She set the plate on the wooden table in front of Nova and passed the syrup across the table.
