The Family

Chapter 3 A Night in Our Room

Kyra's POV

I had a dream of Kim, Kiely, and me of when we're older. We lived in a house that could fit all three of us and our families. I had 3 kids. Kim had 2. And Kiely had twins and 2 other kids. When I woke up I smiled cause I knew that we'd always be together and that just proved my point.

"Why are you smiling?" Kiely asked. It was 2:37 am. I'm surprised she's still up. "I had a good dream. What are you doing up?" I asked. "I woke up and couldn't go back to sleep." she said pulling up an extra blanket up to her chin. I couldn't see but I knew she did it. She always does it when she's lieing. She's always cold at night and I've learned she gets extra cold when she lies. (detective? I think so) "I don't think that's the only reason your up." I said smiling and turning towards her bunk bed. We always have to go to the doctors the day after out birthday. It's an annual check up sorta thing. And this year me and Kiely have to go to the hospital for our check ups cause she has to get fluid drained from her knee cause it's been gathering fluids. And I have to get some blood test thing for my hormone levels. "So maybe I'm a little nervous about the knee thing today but... you look more scared than me so ha." she said laughing. I couldn't help but laugh with her. "Why are you guys up at 2 in the morning?" Kim whined.
"Oh great. It's a party now." I laughed.
"Kyra's scared for today." Kiely said trying to make me sound like a baby.
"Shut up you whimp. You can't even handle getting a check up with no shots and I can get 10 shots and not even flinch." I said throwing a pillow at her."
"What are you girls doing up so late?" Dad said as he walked in the door.
He turned on the light and me Kiely and Kim covered our eyes.
He was holding a bowl of Tostitos chips and a small bowl of salsa.
"Oh great. Now it's a fiesta." I said throwing my hands in air
We all started laughing so loud and dad almost dropped the chips.
"That would've been bad." He said putting the chips down on our dresser.
"Why are you up so late dad?" I asked smirking and hanging my feet over the top bunk.
Kiely did the same. And Kim just hung her feet over her lame bottom bunk.
"I was working on a project for work if you must know." he said grabbing a chip and dipping it in salsa. He loves spicy stuff but me and Kiely can't even handle kiddy wings. Kim can handle mild but nothing more.
"Then why do you have ingredients for a fiesta?" Kiely asked.
"You girls need to learn more Spanish cause all you girls are saying is 'fiesta'."
"Sé manera más español de lo que." I said laughing.
He laughed and mouthed 'what did she say' to Kim.
"She said, 'I know way more Spanish than you'."
"Are you looking to get grounded?" He said laughing.
"No thank you." I said laughing and swinging my feet back over onto my bed and laid down.
He went over to Kim and Kiely's bunk bed and told them to go to sleep.
He got to me and asked why Kiely looked scared and upset.
"She's scared to get the fluids drained from her knee today. Just give her some Irish candy and she'll be fine." I laughed.
"Ok. Whatever you say oh wise child." he laughed then turned off the light and left. Then I turned on my side and fell asleep.
