The Moy Sister

Sevin – 10:40 am

As the waitress walks off, Ty asks us, "So, how has your day been so far?" I nervously look beside me at the girls. They seem not sure of what to say just like me.

Should I tell him about our living situation problem? I guess I'll mention it later, no need to ruin the mood at the start. Right?

Ty looks at us awaiting an answer, luckily Lina speaks up telling him it's been alright and something about the day just starting. Okay, looks like we might not even have to mention this at all.

"How was your day?" Lina asks Ty before we start getting too much into our own day. He smiles and starts to talk about his day.

Kane turns to me as Ty speaks, he says "So, you been staying in touch with your family?" I give him a small smile, "Not lately. I kind of fell off the face of the earth."

A tight smile appears on his face after I say that he pulls me into his side and rests his head on mine. I close my eyes in content, "I've missed you Kane."

He hums back then says, "I've missed you, too, Vinny. You know your brothers were talking to me the other day about how much they miss and want to see you. You should stop by the NSB house and come visit them. It'd make them very happy."

I wrap my arms around him, giving him a hug, "Okay, I think I will. I'll be busy the next few days though, so I don't know how soon it'll be before I can come by." Kane gives me a final squeeze as he says, "As long as you come see them," then let's go with a big smile on his face.

I return the smile until I remember something he just said, "Wait, you said my brothers live in the NSB house? What's NSB?" I ask confused.

Ty and Kane give me a shocked expression, "You don't know the group your own brothers created?!" Ty exclaims. "No?" I respond. He looks at me like I'm crazy for not knowing this.

"NSB is an all-boy Asian group that I manage. There are 7 members, Kane's in the group too. We all live together in one house, the NSB house as we call it. NSB means Northstar Boys. Have either of you ladies heard of NSB?" Ty says, directing his question to Karmen and Lina.

They both shake their heads 'no' making me inwardly smile. I'm not the only one who doesn't know what NSB is at this table.

Ty sighs into his hands and says, "Goodness. You all are coming to the house, and we are going to introduce you to all the members." Kane jumps in saying, "You'll get to meet Vinny's brothers, too," making Karmen and Lina look at me.

"I thought your brothers were younger than you? Is this a group of kids?" Karmen asks. "Wait, I thought your brothers were like way older than you, like in their 30's. What kind of 30-year-old is in an all-boy group?" Lina says.

Ty and Kane start laughing at their confusion, already knowing who they're talking about. I give the two guys a look and they settle down.

"I thought I already explained my siblings to you. I have five brothers, one younger and four older." They both make 'ohhh' faces, "Yeah. I do have two older brothers getting close to 30, but not quite there yet, you remember Nick and Alex. They've been to the house before."

I watch them nod their heads when they realize who I'm talking about. "That's who I was talking about," says Lina. I smile and say, "I thought so. I also have another older brother only a couple years older than me and a twin brother who's barely 5 minutes older than me. They're the ones in the boy group. Lastly, I have one younger brother. He's 11 years old."

Karmen nods her head, "Oh, okay. I was talking about Mateo then." I nod my head, then Lina says, "I didn't know you had all these brothers. So, you're the only girl?"
