"Have you found out the gender yet?" Graham asked once everyone dished up their food.
"Yes I actually have" I smiled in response.
"Have you?" Lucy asked quietly.
"Yes, want to know?" I asked looking up at her and smiling.
"Can I?" She asked excitedly.
"Of course you can Luce" Joe said smiling.
"It's a girl" I smiled and Lucy's face brightened.
"Yay!" She cheered.
We started eating dinner until my father started talking.
"Jemima?" He asked.
"Yes dad?" I asked nervously.
"You remember Ethan right?" He asked.
"Who's Ethan?" Zoe asked.
"My 17 year old brother" I replied averting my gaze from my fathers. "Yes I do dad"
"Your mother and I have some news from him" He said.
"Which is?" I asked cautiously.
"Your brothers gotten into an accident in Australia" he said.
"He's okay right?" I whispered.
Even though my brother and I got off with bad terms, if something happened to him I only slightly cared.
"Yes he's okay," My mum said hesitantly.
"What's the terrible news then?" I asked shifting in my seat.
"He doesn't remember you" my father said.
"He what?" I replied amused.
"He forgot about you dear" My mum replied.
"He couldn't of have" I laughed wearily.
"I'm sorry but he has" My mum said and I felt tears sting the back of my eyes.
"That's not possible" I whispered. "I've been with him his entire life and that asshole forgets about me! Even though we hate each other I still love him! If he forgot me I'm going to go back to Australia and see if it's true whether you like it or not!" I snapped with a single burning tear rolling down my cheek.
"You cant" Lucy whispered.
"And why is that Mum, Dad?" I asked.
"Your body figure has been replaced with hatred, he wants to hurt you, maybe even kill you" My mum whispered.
"Why would that happen?" I asked calming down.
"The amount of things he's done to you has filled his heart. He thinks you've done something bad" My dad replied.
"It doesn't matter. I care for him but not enough to care about this bullshit" I said eating my roast.
"Jemima language!" My Mum yelled.
"How can I control my fucking language mum? I just found out the brother I hate wants to kill me" I whispered.
"Calm down Jem" Joe whispered in my ear, rubbing circles on my lower back.
"Okay, let's just never bring up the subject of my brother again" I said and my parents nodded.
"Tell me something about you Lucy" Zoe said changing the topic.
"I'm 11, my favourite colour is lime green, I sing, dance, enjoy school" she said.
"That's awesome, maybe you and Jemima would like to sing for us then?" Joe asked.
"I've never heard Jemima sing, she said she hates it." Lucy said and I looked at her.
"No she doesn't" Zoe said smiling at me.
"Is it true Jem?" Lucy asked smiling at me.
I wiped the corner of my mouth "yes I do like singing"
"Mum, dad and I have never heard you sing" Lucy smiled.
"She's good at it" Joe smiled.
"Why don't you sing when we finished dinner then sweet heart?" My dad asked.
"Erm..." I said looking around.
"I'd love to hear it" Graham said.
"Fine" I grunted.
"Yay!" Lucy squealed.
"I'm done, anyone else finished?" I asked standing up from my seat.
"I am thank you" Joe said standing up aswell and grabbing Zoe's and Graham's plate.
"Done everyone?" I asked looking at my family.
"Thank you" they said standing up and walking off to the kitchen.
"I'll wash up, don't worry" I wailed taking over Zoe's job.
"Nooo" she whined.
I took the cloth off her and started washing up everyone's dishes with Zoe drying them.
"Why doesn't your sister have an accent?" She asked out of the blue. "because yours is really strong and fluent"
"My mother and father are both half Australian, Lucy took most of the English side off them and I took mainly Scottish and Australian" I smiled at her.
"I never knew you were Scottish" She gushed.
"Learn something new everyday"i smiled wiping my hands on a tea towel.
"You need to film an impressions video" Zoe said.
"Shit" I cursed.
"What?" She asked.
"I haven't filmed in 2 months Zo, I haven't checked social media or anything" I said worried.
"Just go on Twitter and tell them you've been busy" she smiled and I did so and hit many retweets and favourites.
"Let's go back into the lounge?" I asked watching Zoe place the last of the dishes in the cupboard.
"Okay, let's go heard you sing!" She yelled pulling me along side her.
"Ahhh" I grunted.
Zoe opened the door to see Lucy, Mum, Dad, Graham and Joe sitting on the sofa. I went and sat next to Joe.
"Sing" he said pushing me back up.
"Whyyyy" I huffed.
"Because you have a lovely voice and I think your mum and dad what to hear it" he smiled and I nodded slightly.
"Fine, what do you want me to sing?" I asked standing infront if everyone.
"Whatever you want dear" My mum said.
"Let it go? James Bay" I chose.
"Literally thought you'd be singing frozen" Joe sighed of relief and I giggled.
"Ready?" Graham asked.
"Ready as I'll ever be" I smiled.
Joe and Zoe pulled out their cameras and I took a deep breath before singing.
