The curtains darkened the room making it look like it was midnight, not even a tad bit of sunlight from the beautiful Blue summer skies of California could peek in, Jacob Trippson, The Eldest Trippson, was asleep in bed, tossing and turning, whimpering. His fingers slowly shook a little. He was shivering like a leaf falling from the trees.
Suddenly he bolted up, gasping and breathing heavily in fear. Jacobson looks around, he then takes a few deep breaths, putting his hand on his chest, to help himself calm down.
"Another nightmare of a mother...these have to stop..". Jacob gets out of bed, stretching a bit, He walks over to the curtain, opening it, the sun blinding him. "Sunny summer mornings...beautiful but so blinding..". He goes over to his wardrobe, Grabbing clothes to change into, A black turtleneck sweater, and jeans, yes it was 90 degrees out, But Jacob didn't really care. Once he changes, he exits his room, He takes a quick glance at his mother's bedroom door. "I wish you were still here...Gyps does too..". He then closes his door, heading over to his brother's room. He sighs, he knocks on the door. "Gypsy, Buddy. Time to get up, And you need to take your medication!".
"Okay, I'll be down in a minute," Gypsy says.
"Okay, I'll be downstairs making breakfast," Jacob says. He walks downstairs going into the kitchen.
He grabs a pan and pancake mix to make pancakes. He was obviously gonna make breakfast for Gypsy. Once he is done, Gypsy comes down. Jacob puts a plate of pancakes in front of Gypsy. Gypsy looks at Jacob.
"Don't worry Gyps, I'll get the syrup" Jacob says. He heads over to the fridge, grabs a syrup bottle, He reads the label. "Oh no, Bud.." He says. Gypsy looks at Jacob,
"What? What's wrong" He asks.
"Well, we have syrup...but it's not sugar-free...I must have forgotten to grab some when I went shopping.." Jacob explained.
"Aww man...Well maybe...I can use regular syrup for once!",
"Gypsy, You know you have to have sugar-free syrup because of your allergy...",
"I know...",
"We've been to the hospital 7 times, I don't wanna make it an 8th or any higher number!",
"Okay..got it, Jacob..". Gypsy looked at his pancakes, He picked up his fork, beginning to eat a little. Jacob sat in front of him, He looked at his younger brother, He ruffled Gypsy's hair, Gypsy giggled. Jacob picks his fork up, he hesitated to eat a bit, but he ate. Suddenly the doorbell rings, Gypsy looks.
"Don't worry bud, I'll get it," Jacob says.
Jacob gets up and goes over to the door, Opening it, He saw someone he absolutely loved, Lexi Rave.
"Hey, Lexi!" He says.
"Hello Jacob," Lexi said.
"Why are you here?",
"Well, I wanted to hang out a little bit, Is that okay? Just in case you're busy",
"Oh no don't worry, I'm actually glad you came, Because I have to stop at the store and buy sugar-free syrup because I forgot some when I went shopping last, and i don't want Gypsy to have an allergic reaction, and I don't have anybody to watch him, Because our older cousin, Ariana is currently on her honeymoon.",
"Oh, I can watch him,",
"Okay!". Jacob let Lexi in, Lexi and Jacob headed into the kitchen.
"Hey, Gyps," Lexi says.
"Hi, Lexi!" Gypsy says. Jacob's watch that he was wearing beeps. "Gypsy, medicine time," He says. Gypsy grabs his glass of water and puts his hand out. Jacob grabs the medication Gypsy needs and puts two pills in Gypsy's hand. Gypsy swallows the pills, with the help of water. Jacob smiles,
