In the previous chapter :

Soon we reached back home.

"Thanks a ton! Do you wanna come inside?" I offered.

"I would love to but I have to run some errands. Maybe next time?"

"Sure!" I beamed.

I waved him bye and went inside my house.

Today was......

EPIC!!

*****************

JULIA'S POV :

I opened the window and the morning breeze tickled my face.

I took a deep breath in the cool breeze and then closed the window to get ready for school.

When I got ready I noticed that the house is awfully quiet.

Where is my loudmouthed brother?!!

I went downstairs and heard mom singing.

Phew!  I just imagined a horror scene that everyone is gone. I am all alone.

Yes detectives you guessed it.

All thanks to Netflix.

Mom loves to sing while doing work. By the way, she is a great singer!

"Good Morning mom!" I greeted.

"Good Morning hun." she greeted back without looking back at me.

Suddenly she stopped her work and turned to me "Julia why are you awake so earl- why are you wearing school uniform?!!"

"Cause it's a Tuesday..... and I have school?" I replied in not-in-too-sure-tone.

"Who tol- Oh! Sorry hun. You slept early yesterday so... I forgot to tell you."

"What mom?!"

"Remember that it rained last night?"

"Mhmm" I said urging her to continue.

"Soon the rain turned into hail storm because of which your school declared today a holiday."

"WHAT?!!"

She gave me a sheepish grin.

I WOKE UP IN THE MORNING. TOOK A BATH. GOT READY AND TODAY IS A FREAKING HOLIDAY!!!

YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING!!

RYAN'S POV :

"RYAN WALKER IF YOU DON'T WAKE UP RIGHT NOW.  I AM NOT GONNA GIVE YOU BREAKFAST !" I heard mom threatening.

"I am up!!" I shouted back.

I looked over to the clock.

11:45 am.

It's not even twelve yet.

I managed to drag myself out of the bed.

After getting ready I went downstairs.

"Good morning mom."

"Good afternoon Ryan." mom replied.

Huh?

I looked over the clock.

12:03pm

"Hehehehhehehe. Sorry mom." I said while hugging her.

" Like father. Like son. By the way, today we are going to visit dad's good friend so dress up well."
