Just One Yesterday

It is Wednesday, my dudes

Aaron Stevens was pretty much happy with his life. He was about one week away from finishing his training for his new job - a computer programmer. He sat on his bed lazily with his laptop on a Saturday afternoon, almost done with the hyperlinks. He was singing along to Uma Thurman by fall out boy while sipping on the coffee he had asked his sister to get.

"-the document in the file below. Thanks," he typed in his email then uploaded the file. After the email was sent he looked at his to-do list. Nothing. So he decided to watch a movie or something.

He had just started a movie and he heard laughing and screaming from outside. Then his sister's voice.

"CALM DOWN EVERYONE, I GOT THIS. ARIANA, EVEN YOU?! AH, THE BETRAYAL!"

Aaron shook his head and got up. He was 90% sure she was up to no good. First he glanced from the window and when he didn't see anything he went outside and saw a little group of Isabel's friends.

His sister was in the middle, HOLDING HIS PRECIOUS MOTORBIKE.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" he shouted and ran towards her. She put the motorbike on the stand.

"WHEN DID YOU GET THE KEYS?!"

"You would have known that if you kept the keys at a definite place instead of just throwing them on random surfaces." she said. "I found the keys on the couch. I wouldn't be so careless."

Aaron decided to ignore that. "Were you trying to ride it??"

Isabel scoffed. "How do you think I got you that coffee so fast?"

He gasped. "YOU'RE LITERALLY THIRTEEN!" Before she could say anything, he put his hands on his waist and said, "Give. Me. The. Keys."

She tried to hide her grin and put her hands in her pocket.

"Now." he extended his hand.

"Fine!" she snapped and took out the keys from her pocket and put them on his hand. She just couldn't stop grinning. It made Aaron nervous but he tried not to show it.

"Thank you." he parked the motorbike. "You can play with your friends now. Come back whenever you want." Isabel lit up at that. She turned to her friends and smirked. "I know exactly what to do." and ran.

Aaron didn't care what she did. Like, why would he? His movie was waiting for him.

Oliver finally reached home after one long day. He felt so good when he rang the bell. Aaron opened the door.

"Hey dad." he said and yawned. It was 10 p.m.

"Hey! What's going on? Where's your sister?" He remembered that Isabel had thrown a fit when he forgot his bag behind the door.

"Still out, playing with friends. I was watching a movie. Actually, three movies." Aaron replied. "Then I fell asleep."

"Hmm. You had dinner?"

"Huh? No, not yet."

"Did someone say dinner?" Isabel was outside the door kicking off her shoes and putting them gently in the stand. Then she pointed at Aaron. "You forgot to close the door." Then she came in, closed the door and looked at her brother like, this is how it's done. Watch and learn.

(havent you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door *screams*)

"About time you come back. Who plays for 8 hours? That's as long as your school!" Aaron said. This was his favorite thing to do.

"For the record, Aaron," Oliver said, "You used to play for 8 hours. And that answers your question." Then he winked at Isabel.

She laughed. "Thanks dad," then she made a face at Aaron.
