Sonya is laying down in her bed, she's reading a magazine with the fan blowing on her with the window cracked open. The door opens and it's her little sister Ryland.

"Hey." Ryland Says

"Hey." I Said

"I don't know how your sitting in here, it's like a Sauna." Rylan Says While Putting her hair in a ponytail

"Ryland you've been living here ever since you were born, how are you not used to the Texas weather yet" I Said

"I don't know but I can't stand it" She Sighs." It's like the sun is getting hotter and hotter every single summer." Ryland Says

"Yeah I feel that way to but" I Get off the bed." Looks like you gotta deal with it all the way till Fall just like everyone else." I Say As I playfully boop her on the nose

"Yeah Yeah, Mom made lunch if you want to eat." Ryland Says

"Yeah I can grab a bite real quick." I Said

Ryland and I leave our bedroom, we walk downstairs then into the kitchen where Mom (Laurie) is making grilled cheese sandwiches, I walk to the refrigerator and open it to grab the juice.

"Hey Ma." I Kiss Her Cheek

"Good Afternoon Sonya, you missed breakfast." Laurie Says

"Sorry I was out last night, I couldn't get out of bed." I Said

"Where you out drinking last night?" Laurie Asks

"Mom I'm 23 remember." I Said, Then takes a sip from my cup

"Yeah I remember." She Places the plate of sandwiches on the table. "There's lunch eat up." Laurie Says

Ryland and I sit at the table and grab two grilled cheese sandwiches.

"Where's Dad?" Ryland Asks

"He's fixing up the car, since your sister messed it up the last time she drove the damn thing." Laurie Says

"How many times do I have to say it was an accident." Ryland Says

"Yeah Well accidents don't fix cars huh." Jack Says Entering The House

"I only dented the car door that's all." Ryland Says

"And the engine to." Jack Says

"No Dad that engine has always had problems." I Smiled

"The girls are right, Jack you've had that car since Cade & Dylan was born...they are 25 years old, don't you think it's time to get a new car." Laurie Says

"No all she needs a fix, I need to fix the oil pump and boom she's back." Jack Says

"God you are so cheap." We All Say In Unison

"Shut up, I came in to grab a sandwich." He Picks up one. "I'll be out back if you girls need me." Jack Says

Jack leaves, Ryland, Mom and I laugh and go back to eating. Later On I hang out with Cade, Dylan and Ryland around town. We Stop at the infamous bar in town that everyone goes to, this bar is where I snuck my first beer at 16.
