"When I was born, I was a rather loud and grumpy baby, screaming my lungs out and making most of the hospital curious. The date was October 14, 2000." Karlee smiled at the interviewer. She never thought when she sat down to do a piece of her achievements and her life today, she would end up telling the story of where it all began.
"People thought the birth of the miracle baby, the youngest Saints sibling would be a sentimental event in my family, but it really wasn't. It's not because my parents were not happy to have a biological child but more so because they were so not prepared." Even today when Karlee thought back to the day, she was born she couldn't help but laugh.
The interview looked up. "Were you born before the due date then?"
"A full month before my mother's due date." Karlee chuckled, twisting her wedding and engagement ring as she continued her story. "But I insisted on arriving the same day as my mother's best friend had her baby and two days before her other son's third birthday. Funnily enough Arthur was born two hours before me and made those two hours his whole personality. I still remember the story my mom told me about how Arthur and I kept crying until we were placed side by side in the baby bassinets in the nursery and it wasn't until then did, we quieten down. It was that moment that solidified our friendship, our bond, our love, whatever you may want to call it. Because from that day we were inseparable."
Arthur became her best friend, he really did. He was there glued to her side for literally all her life, and he was the first to meet her aside from her parents. The second person to meet her was Charles, who was so excited to have a little sister. Karlee remembers the story of a little Cha walking into the nursery with big eyes and a happy smile as he leaned over the crib to kiss her forehead.
Rio, Lorenzo, and Jules were eleven years old when Arthur and Karlee were born. And thought the earliest memory Karlee has of her sister is when she was three. She's heard stories of the adventures the boys had when she was the only girl in the group and how they all doted on her.
By the time she was 3, Marcy had become a constant figure in her life and before Charles got into karting, Charles, Marcy, Arthur, and she used to run about and play.
"There's a bond between the four of us, even though Charles said he didn't like hanging out with us and that we always annoyed him, and Marcy was too lost in her books to notice anything else, we were tight, and we were always there for each other."
When they got older, they made a handshake that they did before Charles races, another one of the things that just stuck. But with time Charles got busier and Marcy moved to modeling and acting school, leaving only Arthur and Karlee to make memories and so that is how they because one unit.
"By the time we were teenagers, my sister was too busy to spend any time with us, Charles was always away either racing or with his girlfriend and Rio and Lorenzo were much older to really spend any time with us. Arthur was karting too but since he had to take that gap because their parents couldn't afford to support both the boys, he was around a lot more and probably that is what made us who we are today."
