"WAKE UP SLEEPY HEAD". Its just six o'clock in the morning and this lady seems to be hyped, cause why would she disturb my peaceful sleep!

"Summer, what do you want?", I asked with a tired voice, "oh, nothing I just came here to disturb your sleep like I don't have any things better to do" she said with a sarcastic voice, I ignored her,

"dad wants us to have a family meeting, so get off your butt, and let's go". She finally shut up, my eyes were still closed ,

was she gone? I looked up and she was still there with her hands crossed and she was in her pyjamas, I sighed, "what did I just say?" She asked

"Can you just go away? What's it about anyways?" I asked, "I don't know now let's go!" She replied so I stood up, and followed her to the living room,

"morning dad, mum". We said together, "great they're here, everyone take your sit please". Dad said, and we obeyed, "ok, Smile, Summer, your mum and I are traveling for vacation, cause we've been working really hard, and we need a break plus we're celebrating our anniversary there, but we are leaving you with uncle Frank, and Aunt Trisha".

That last name made us groan, uncle Frank is absolutely great, but Aunt Trisha, she's nothing but a control freak, we never liked her, and I made sure she knew I didn't like her, but Summer has always been the one pretending to like her, giving the excuse that she wants her to feel at home, and highly welcomed when obviously her present is a problem to us,

she is always complaining about how uncle Frank behaves like an irresponsible man and , that he can't take good care of a child not to think of teenagers,

ugh, she can't come here, " dad, please let uncle Frank come alone, we'll be fine, I promise." I pleaded with dad, " tell your mum, she brought up the idea, I tried talking her out of it, but she insisted". Dad said,

"Mum". Summer whined, " Trisha has always been complaining about Frank, I need someone to be present to take good care of you". Mum said, "but Katrina is here, she cooks, and she is caring, what more do you want? ". I asked,

then she realized what she had been missing, "she has always been the one here during to your absence, we've never complained about her". Summer added,

"okay, I wish I knew this earlier, I wouldn't have bothered her, but the deed has been done, Trisha is coming". "Ugh !" We groaned, Just great, " okay, I guess we're done, we'll be leaving soon, and probably they'll be here soon." Dad said, then he turned his attention to Katrina, " Katrina, could you make one of those smoothie, I need to have one before we leave". Dad said, "Ok". Katrina replied, and left

, then mum shut dad with a glare, "what? Can't I have one smoothie to go?". Dad said, I'm going to my room where I could stay away from this nonsense.

Its been two whole weeks, And I never saw that girl again, I'm glad about that, but I'm seriously worried about Emma, we have not talked or we rarely see each other, or hanged out, I tried calling her, but no one picked up, when I complained about it in school to her, she said she her phone was seized, for some reason they think she doesn't have anyone royalty enough to talk to, so doesn't need it, every time I see her, she is always looking depressed, that wasn't my bestie, Dylan was right we should do something about it, but I don't know what to do right now,

Cause I have Aunt Trisha to take care of and she is my mum's younger sister, while uncle Frank is my dad's younger brother, they don't really get along, especially when uncle Frank adviced me to start going to the gym to build my arms, although my dad has his well built arm, he felt I was too young to start, but thanks to uncle Frank, look at me now!

As for Aunt Trisha, she is a big control freak, unlike my mum, she'll let you do what you want as long as it is not bad or, it doesn't encourage bad attitude, but Aunt Trisha wants everything to be her way, she's not even here yet, but I can't wait for her to leave.

               •LATER•
Few hours later uncle Frank arrived  and my parents were about to leave, ".  Uncle Frank is here!!" Summer announced, and as usual he picked a fight with me, just to test my strength, "good work keep it up". He would always say,

"Good he's here" my dada said, as they greeted each other with a hand shake, then he hugged my mum, "hmm looking good Frank", she commented

She wasn't wrong, uncle Frank is a handsome man with nice abs, he should be a model, but no he loves being the boss of his own, he was on a white tee-shirt and blue jeans that matches his white Nike

"Thanks, same with you" he replied, She smiled in return, "can we be on our way now? We're gonna miss our flight" he said, "one sec honey, Frank I'm keeping my kids with you and I want you to promise me that you'll be responsible" she said,

"Yeah don't worry, I've got this " he said,  "okay kids bye, o I love!" She said and left, bye mummy and daddy

After he settled in, we decided to watch TV. " Do you know Aunt Trisha is coming?". Summer asked, " yeah, David told me". He replied, "and what did you do about it?". Summer asked, he shrugged, " nothing, what could I do?, I'm here to take care of a business, and she is coming here to take care of you guys, and you know I don't care about her".

He defended, he never liked her too, whenever she is complaining about his character, he would either ignore her, or flatter her which would make her disgusted, and probably shut up,

usually Emma,would be his back up, E
She would always say what She got to say to her with no fear , and this is another reason why I'm gonna miss her, she is always there when you need her, but this time is different, She needs me.
Then we heard the doorbell ring, Summer went to get the door and then... "Hello my little niece and nephew". She's here, Someone please wake me up from my nightmare, PLEASE.
