This never was something she liked to do. The smell of new shoes and cheap coffee filled the conference room, accompanied by someone’s monotonous voice. She didn’t like any of this: too official, too serious, too fake. She rolled her eyes when someone disagreed with the speaker, causing the debate to start. 

“That is the most stupid thing I heard in a while!” A man in a grey suit exclaimed as he stood up. 

“But that is the best way to solve the problem!” The speaker tried to prove his point, but most of higher-ups did not agree with him. 

“River, what do you think about this?” A dark-haired woman, her mother, asked her. She smirked. 

“I think that this whole meeting could have gone well enough without my presence.” She leaned back in her chair as she fixed her black suit, looking straight into her mother’s eyes. The disappointment on her face brought River joy and happiness at that moment. 

“River!” Her grandfather exclaimed as he looked at the girl. That added even more adrenaline to her blood, and she smirked wider. “Be serious for once!” 

“Why bother? As if I’m not the last option to inherit anything in this company.” She shook her head before grabbing her cup and taking a sip of coffee. It was bitter, as if the multimillionaires couldn’t afford good coffee. Bunch of selfish assholes.

“You would be the first to inherit the hospital if you followed our suggestion and studied medicine.” Her grandmother looked at her with a stern look. “Instead, you chose to go to that cheap university and study useless psychology.”

“Well, someone should be there to fix your fucked up brains.” River swirled what was left in her cup and chugged the remains in one go. “Now, if you’d excuse me, I have that useless psychology assignment to finish.”

The tall figure stood up and walked out of the stuffy room. Hands in pockets, she chucked loudly when she passed her father, who sat right next to grandfather.

### 

The air at night was something River enjoyed in this life. It reminded her of the times when she used to sit on a windowsill in her room. Mother and father were asleep – or so she thought – and the big mansion was eerily quiet and calm. It was not noisy during the day either, but night made it feel relaxed.

She took a drag of her cigarette and exhaled. The bitter taste of nicotine was much better than the coffee she had at that conference room. She leaned forward to get a better look at the city right before the dawn. The bridge she stood on was her usual smoke place: convenient because it was right in-between her family’s company and her apartment.

River looked at her motorbike that was parked next to her on the roadside. It might sound strange to other people, but the black yamaha xs155r was the only thing that meant something to her. It was the first thing she bought with the money she earned herself, the first step of her own rebellion. She was sure that her mother would have a stroke if she saw her right now – standing god knows where, smoking god knows what while wearing a black leather jacket.

The lean figure finished the cigarette and took one more deep breath. She decided to get back to the dorm before the sun is up. River put her helmet on and seconds later she was already driving off towards the apartment.

The student accommodation was just as quiet as the whole city. The dark-haired girl parked her vehicle and took off her helmet before heading to her place. Knowing how thin the walls are, she tried to be as quiet as she could. Before she opened the door to the apartment that she shared with three other people and a dog, she checked the time. 4.45 am. These assholes need to hold the meetings earlier.

She opened the door as quietly as she could. The living space was dark, and every door was closed, which meant that everyone was asleep. The girl could smell the last bits of party that Ash and Beau threw earlier. She took off her shoes and walked on her tiptoes.

“The rule was to be quiet after 10,” River heard a voice. It made her roll her eyes. “Where were you?”

Nyx sat on the barstool with a cup of something in her hands. In the darkness. With all the lights off except one above the stove and making no sound. At almost 5 am. River looked in her eyes as she took the situation in.

“Well, I was busy,” she gave an answer that was, in her opinion, enough.

“Busy doing what?” The oldest girl pushed.

 

“Busy fucking some girls,” River deadpanned. When Nyx gave her a questioning stare, she pushed. “Why? You want details? Well, there was this blonde, she was so...”

“Enough,” Nyx didn’t want her ears to hear all of that. Just when she was starting to believe that River was the serious one out of the three children, the youngest had to jump at her with this. “I don’t need to hear all of this. Just be quiet, please.”

“Why are you up anyways?” River asked as she walked towards her room.

“None of your business.” the oldest grumbled before sipping from her cup.

###

That morning Ash wished they didn’t wake up. They would not have to be where they were right now. In the kitchen, with a cup of tea in their hand and a pulsating migraine, looking at the mess they made last night.

The apartment was in an awful state. Empty beer and highball cans, half empty bottles of vodka, some takeout boxes here and one-use cups there; they were in deep shit. The tall person slowly walked to the balcony door and opened it wide, letting all the sounds in and the sweet alcohol scent out. They squinted at the sudden light as their head started to hurt even more.

“Ash, please.” Beau said quietly as her head fell into her hands. The girl sat on the couch with a bottle of water. By her state Ash could tell that she didn’t sleep much. Beau did not drink a lot the night before, yet her head was heavy, and she felt sick in her stomach.

“Never again,” Ash said as they sipped their tea. They walked back to the kitchen as they tried to think through their plan.

“Never again,” Beau mumbled back. She lifted her head up and leaned back on the couch. “You clean the kitchen; I’ll take the trash and then we clean the living area together.”

“Deal.” Ash agreed as they looked around the kitchen thinking where to start. The kitchen was not a lot of work – drinks and food were mainly at the living space, so they only had to wipe everything and do the dishes. Not wasting a minute, they immediately started the cleaning.

When they started mopping the floor they heard River’s door open. The tall girl walked out of her room looking at whatever was going on. To be more exact, she saw Ash holding a cleaning cloth with two fingers and giggling while Beau was, as she assumed, explaining them where she can’t reach and wipe the dust.

“You, tall ass, quit laughing,” she scolded them. “I can’t reach that top shelf, please... be serious!” she jokingly hit them with a cloth she had on her shoulder.

“Beau, it’s not even that high! Ouch!” they jumped and moved around the room as the shorter girl smacked them with the weapon in her hand. “It hurts!” Ash noticed River as the lanky girl moved towards one of the bathrooms.

“I see party was a success?” She asked them. Ash froze in place, taking a deep breath. Even though the place was now clean and neat, they still remembered the scolding they received after being caught by Nyx.

“Nyx came home early.” Beau answered, shrugging. “So, no more parties, no more alcohol in the house.”

“Oh, I see.” River nodded and left to the bathroom, leaving the duo to their own shenanigans.

When minutes later she came back to her room, she had a displeasure to discover new messages from her mother.

Mother: Caleb H, 24 years old, med student. *1 file attached. 

Mother: the date is on next Friday, 6 pm. 

Mother: do not disappoint your family.

“Shit,” River mumbled as she put her phone down.

My flowers deserve peace

Will you bring flowers to my grave that you dug? Will you get me the same lilies that you fed me with your beautiful cold hands Or will they be the daisies that you plucked from my garden yesterday? Will you plant a garden around my grave that you dug? Will you water it like you spiked my drinks? Will you take care of my garden while I rest in the mud with the same love you set me in the grave with? Will you bring a piece of the sun for my plants? Will you remove the weeds like you removed me? Will you murder the insects that might destroy them like you did me? Will you let them grow into magnificent pretty beings like you let my fear grow so big, it glorified your dominance? Will you love my flowers like you did my blood? I wish you'd finally pluck them and leave them on my grave to wither away, like me, with me It's peaceful here, I have to say, familiar too Like I am home Except there's a calmness that isn't eerie like before It's more beautiful in the mud than in your hands It's more beautiful in my grave than in your house My flowers deserve peace So let them be with me In my beautiful grave
