Oh wow! from a stressful day, now it became totally shocking!

I was reading my manga on my laptop peacefully, getting into the volume and I heard someone call my name. I looked out of my window to see Ryder in the other house beside mine!!

Ryder then called my name again "Aurora!!, hey Aurora," he said calling me to get my attention.

I look back at him and he just looked at me weird.

" Aurora, I didn't know you just lived next door," he said.

"Yeap just moved in yesterday," I said nervously.

"So, how were they?" Ryder said curiously while waiting for my response.

"Who?, I'm so sorry I was...." I said .

" Distracted?, It's fine I was just asking how was your brothers' during their tryout went," he said smiling at me.

" Well, I don't know, I thought you would, why are you not at practice, Are you ditching?" I curiously said to him going nearer outside the window.

" No, I don't ditch sports, well..... I have a family emergency, I had to tell the coach that I need to take care of one of my siblings as they got sick after school and no one is at home," he said

" Oh, are they okay? wait, you have siblings?" I said shockingly not knowing this information.

"Yeah, 7 of them," he said confidently

" 7!?, WOW that is a lot of siblings, I thought my brothers were a handful, 7?" I said

" yeah, 6 sisters and 1 brother," he said

" That is amazing I hope I meet them one day," she said.

" Yeah, when they are not sick I'll introduce you to them, maybe tomorrow?" Ryder said suggestively.

" Sure "I started to smile widely at him.

I heard the door squeak opened

" We're Home," said my parents.

"Well, see ya tomorrow Ryder," I said glancing right before going downstairs.

"See ya Aurora," he said before I went downstairs.

Once i was at the living room, i saw that my parents and i also saw my brothers were dirty and sweaty all over.

"Auri, how was school today?" said mom

"Well, fine except when my dear... Dear, dear brothers didn't text me earlier saying that we are not going home together! And I had to wait half an hour for their text" I said looking angrily at them while they were sitting their sweaty self on the couch.

"We're sorry okay, we forgot," said Josh

"Forgot your own sister?" i asked.

"Why can't you go home by yourself?" said Alex

"Well, .... I don't know.... We always go home together even in our old school. "

I crossed my arms and look down on the floor, I glance and see Nick elbowing Alex on the arm. And my parents staring angrily at my brothers.

Each of them stands up one by one.

"Auri, we are sorry ok? , next time we will message you " Alex holding patting my back
