The next morning after getting ready for school Emberly headed downstairs into the kitchen for breakfast. To her surprise everyone was there. She thought for sure they would be gone already. They were here now but she was sure they were going to be gone later.
"Morning." Emberly spoke when she entered.
"Good morning." Jessica replied back. "I was going to ask you both something. Have any of you told Liam about you guys being siblings?"
"Half-siblings." Emberly corrects as she grabbed the orange juice out the fridge.
"No. We think it's best we hold off on telling him right now." Everly tells her.
"May I ask why?" Jessica asks. "It's been a few weeks now, don't you think Liam deserves to know that you are his sisters?"
"Says the one who kept that he might have been our brother for 17 years of our life and was probably going to continue to keep it a secret, but now you're worried about us not telling Liam?" Emberly asks taking a sip of her orange juice looking at her mom.
Everly looks back and fourth between her sister and their, slightly shocked by the way Emberly had just said to their mom. Emberly always spoke snarky replies to her, but she had never spoken that way to their mother. The only time she had ever heard Emberly speak like that to their parents was when they found out the truth.
Everly wasn't the only one shocked, Jessica was to as she starred at Emberly. She wasn't upset because she was already expecting something like this.
When they find out the truth, they were mad but quickly after they pretended everything was fine. She knew it wasn't though. So, if she had to get this type of behavior from them, she accepted it. Jessica was only surprise it didn't come sooner.
"Yeah. You're right. Just don't keep the truth from him too long. That's what I did and you see how that turned out." Jessica says grabbing her purse off the counter, digging inside it, "Mark already at work. I took on some more hours at the hospital, I'll be home late. So, you girls can order take out for dinner." Jessica places two twenty dollar bills on the counter.
"I got to get to work, love you both." Jessica says placing her bag on her shoulder, grabbing her cup of coffee and leaving out the kitchen.
"What was with that talk to Mom?" Everly asks once the front door closed and her mom was out the house. "Are you trying to make Mom feel anymore sad than she already is?"
"Sad? Are you kidding me? All I did was spoke the truth. Was anything I said a lie?" Emberly asks.
"No, but you act like throwing it up in her face, reminding her of what she did is going to help anything." Everly says. "You're usually not like this."
"Tell me, Everly. How am I suppose to act finding out we have a brother? Am I was suppose to be happy-go-luckly with a smile on my face? Or am I suppose to spend my time sleeping around with people at school to help?" Emberly asks.
