I can hear the howling sounds coming from Enzo's part of the house. They are screaming, howling, and laughing loudly. I can even hear thudding noises sometimes. Occasionally, their screams sound like someone is being choked. What the hell are they doing over there?

This is going to be a long week.


Enzo

"Hey Mia! What are you doing? My friends came to my place to spend the whole week," I sent Mia a text before I forgot to text her while I'm doing crazy stuff with my friends. So now she knows what I'm doing and why I'm late to message or call.
"Wow! That's cool," she sends a message.
I even sent her a selfie of the four of us to prove it to her.
"What is that place?" she replies.
"My room," I say.

"Your room? 😮" she said. "That's a huge room!"
"Not really. I got the smallest room 🙁," I replied.
"What? Are you serious?" she said, and I actually don't understand why she's surprised. Isn't this a normal-sized room?
"This is my room 😀," Mia sent me a picture of her room, and it's smaller than half of my room. My mouth opened in surprise. Her room is decorated in a cute way, and she has a small bed. She sent a selfie sitting on her bed, and I felt a warm feeling seeing her calm face. She's smiling.

"Miss you baby. Wish you were here," I said honestly. I felt a sudden need for her warmth.
"Miss you too Enzo. Love you!" she said.
"Love you a lot 😘," I replied.
"Are you sending messages to your girlfriend?" Noah asked, seeing I'm on my phone.
"Yeah," I said.

"Good, you reminded me. I need to tell all my girls not to bother me during this week," Noah said, opening his phone.
"Oh guys, I have to tell you something. Don't be mad at me. If you take photos here, don't send them to anyone and don't post them on social media," I said.

"Why?" Elijah asked, confused.
"House rules," I said.
"But you sent a photo to Mia," Diego said, and I felt a sudden burning sensation throughout my entire body. What the hell did I do? Oh my God, I can't ask her to delete it.
"What the hell, man? You look like you've seen a ghost," Noah said.
"I sent a photo to Mia," I said, my voice trembling as if I were about to cry. "What should I do now?"
"Is... is it a huge problem?" Diego asked, and I sat on the bed, burying my face in my palms.
"Just delete it from everyone, quickly. Maybe it'll work," Noah suggested, and I quickly did as he said. I felt relieved and lay down on the bed, releasing a deep breath.

"Did you delete your photo with friends? I can't see it," Mia sent a message, which means it worked. However, I didn't reply to her. Sorry Mia, you have to forget about it.
"Dude, didn't you and Mia take photos on her phone? What if she puts them on her FB or something?" Noah asked.
"No, she didn't. I asked her not to, and she was upset about that," I said.
"What was the problem, though?" Noah inquired.

"Don't you get it? It's a billionaire's problem. If your father was also a billionaire, you'd have to hide from everyone like him," Elijah said.
"That's kind of boring, though," Noah said, laying on the bed.
"Yeah, it is," I agreed. But what they don't know is that he's not only a billionaire—he does some other stuff that can get his children into trouble. I noticed Diego watching me. I'm pretty sure he knows about those things, as his Papa is one of my Papa's best friends.

"Yo, let's get our adventure night started!" Noah said, pumped up for the camping trip.
Diego looked over at me. "Where are we gonna put the tent, bro?"
"How 'bout near the pool?" I suggested.
Noah shook his head. "Nah, man, that's way too close to the house. If we wanna get the real camping vibe, we gotta set up the tent in the corner of that big-ass yard."
"Hold up, do we even have a tent?" Elijah asked.
I paused for a sec. "I'll hit up Pa... my guard and see if he can hook us up with one."
