Any Given Sunday Drive

The Rawsone Residence, 1782 Parkway, 4th and Rochester Drive, Wilmington Hills, Oregon 1962...

    Laughter rang out as a five-year-old boy with a darkened complexion and dark brown eyes ran about the backyard of his home ignoring the previous warnings about getting his suit dirty before his parents carted him off to an unwanted dinner party with his father's overbearing colleagues. The young boy had managed to rid himself of his suit jacket and tie before venturing into the yard against his mother's wishes in the hopes of having a bit of fun before the long car ride. Despite his being out there only a few moments, he found himself in the company of a similar-looking young boy dressed in his suit jacket and tie that the happily playing boy had been missing.

"No fair Rian." said the fully dressed boy.

He'd been identical to the playing boy in all aspects, They were twin brothers of course with the same dark hair and eyes, but vastly different stances on how things worked in life.

"Go back inside, Lonnie." said the jacketless boy known as Rian.

"Mommy said you can't play out here we're about to leave." said the fully-dressed boy known as Lonnie."

"Quiet!" hissed Rian, in annoyance. "You always do this, can't spend time by yourself ever, you even follow me to the bathroom when you know you don't have to use it."

"I-I do not, Rian you are just being mean," said Lonnie narrowing his eyes at his elder brother.

Lonnie could hardly believe it when they told him, Rian was older than him by Fourteen minutes and he acted like it was fourteen years.

"And you are just being a pest." scoffed Rian as he too narrowed his dark eyes in his brother's direction. "You're a baby Lonnie...always have to copycat."

"Shut up, Rian," growled Lonnie. "I'm not a baby and you're being mean."

Rian rolled his eyes once more further annoyed by his younger twin's attempt to undermine his fun. He'd been locked up inside the house ever since school ended and now he wanted some time to himself.

"Leave me alone!" hissed Rian, attempting to distance himself and his brother, when the sliding door to the living room opened from the house.

"Boys!, What have I told you about coming outside and getting dirty before the party!?" bellowed what appeared to have been their father, Colin Rawson, who had been very stressed about the upcoming event and wanted very much to get it underway without further fuss.

Rian glared at his younger twin once more. He knew with his father's temperament punishment wasn't too far behind especially where he had been concerned. Colin Rawsone was a rather imposing man of average build aside from his towering height and sometimes cold dark-colored eyes. He slicked his hair back and wore a blue suit and tie with a white long-sleeve shirt and heavily polished black dress shoes. He often wore a silver watch that he checked as if due to compulsion as the hours passed in a bid to keep in time with his busy schedule.

His wife, Mildred Rawson, the beautiful slender blonde woman with piercing blue eyes, had spent most of her time isolated when not out and about pretending to have the perfect marriage and playing the role of the perfect wife and mother of two.

"Hadrian, what happened to your suit jacket and tie?" continued his father storming over to the older boy and pulling him by the arm through the open sliding glass door to the living room.

Having no choice, the older twin known as Hadrian followed his father as he muttered under his breath about their mother's incompetence and the total disrespect he endured as a result of his eldest twin son's disobedience.
