Afeefa went to the door and opened it to Yeonjun
"Your on time that's good." Afeefa said walking towards the living room
"Well yea. What you expected me to be all snobby and show up late." Yeonjun said
"Yea. I did." Afeefa replied
The two sat on floor to the coffee table
They placed their books down and Afeefa took out her notes
"Okay what do you need help on." Afeefa said
"Ummmmm everything." Yeonjun said
"How do you manage to stay on the basketball team? Don't you need good grades or you get kicked off." Afeefa said
"Yea. That's why I needed a tutor. Now you do the work and I'll watch." Yeonjun said
"No. You do the work and I'll watch and correct you. Here's the notes." Afeefa said sliding over the notes to him
"Okayyy." Yeonjun said sighing
3 hours past and the two where now worn out from working so hard
"I'm so tired my brain hurts." Yeonjun whined
"Mine too" Afeefa said laying her head on the table
"Okay. Same time tommarow." Afeefa said
"I have practice at 5. I can't miss it." Yeonjun said
"Okay there's 2 hours before that. You can come then." Afeefa demanded
"Okay. Okay. I'll come." Yeonjun said putting his hands up
"Oh and your 3 wishes. I may grant them. Let me know what they are" Yeonjun said as he was walking out the door
"I need nothing from you." Afeefa said
"Oh cmon you want something. Everyone wants something. Do you like anyone?" Yeonjun asked
"No. Why?" Afeefa said
"Cmon you like someone. Who's your crush. I'll hook you up." Yeonjun said getting closer so Afeefa can tell him
"I'm not telling you. Bye" Afeefa closed the door on his face
'Did he really think I would tell him who I like.' Afeefa thought to herself

It was late 1 am at night and Laila was pacing back and forth by the front door worried and scared
Her brother never came back home since he left after school
'Where the hell is he at this time' Laila thought
She called Sana thinking he might be over there
"Hey is Joshua at your house?" Laila asked
"No. I haven't seen him today." Sana said
"Oh okay." Laila said in a worried tone
"Why? Is everything okay?" Sana asked
"Yea don't worry. Goodnight." Laila said and hung up the phone
Laila then thought about calling Shabeela
Maby he was there
She called and called but no one answered
'Okay he must be there. Why else would her phone be off.' Laila said
Laila got in her car and headed to Shabeela's house
Ding Dong
Ding Dong
Ding Dong
Laila kept ringing the bell
'Why isn't she opening the door' laila thought to herself
Shabeela came downstairs and opened the door rubbing her eyes
"What are you doing? Why are you here Laila?" Shabeela asked
"Why arnt you opening the door or answering your phone?" Laila asked back
"It's 2 am. People sleep at this time that's why. Why are you here?" Shabeela asked again
"Is Joshua here?" Laila said
"No" Shabeela said making a confused face
"Where is he?" Laila said
"What do you mean?" Shabeela asked
"He never came home. I don't know where he is." Laila explained
"What? Is he not picking up his calls." Shabeela said
"No." Laila was now more stressed
"Let me check at home once more. You just go back to sleep." Laila said and drove back home
As she rolled up into the drive Joshua was getting out of his car
Laila now more angry than ever walked up to him
"WHERE WERE YOU?" Laila yelled
"Where were you? Why are you barley coming home?" Joshua said
"I WAS OUT LOOKING FOR YOUR STUPID ASS. WHY ARE YOU COMING HOME SO LATE." Laila kept yelling
"I'm home now calm down. Why are you yelling. I told you to not worry about me. You don't have to act like your my mom. Your only my sister quite putting so much stress on yourself." Joshua said
"Now I can't be worried about you. When you don't show up home without an answer. FINE. I won't worry anymore you do whatever you want. I don't care anymore." Laila said
"No I didn't-" Joshua was going to speak but Laila walked off banging the front door behind her
