BOOK 2: A Turn In Life

A new family 1

A few months later.

''''''''''''''''''

"Hi! We're home, mum." I heard a boy's voice call from down stairs.

(Who? what??) I ran down the steps and froze.

(PAUL? RINGO? i thought... keep calm.)

"Hey Hanna!" He hugged me.

"Why are you here??" I asked staring at him.

"We live here!" Paul chuckled.

"Yeah, Remember. Your folks adopted us." Ringo said as if he was trying to get me to remember, which he was.

"But, i, i..." I put my hand on my head.

Mom came in at the moment. 

"Hello boys. How was it?" She said and kissed them.

(Im liken it! even tho its weird...whats goin on! They act as though they don't even know they love in Liverpool!)

"It was gear!" Ringo told her.

The boys went upstairs to shower. I followed mom into the kitchen.

"Mom, when did we adopted them?" I asked. (Silly question. I know she htought that!)

"Why Hanna, don't you remember? They were little and just roaming around. Two of them were taken by Maria's mother." She smiled.

"Oh yeah i know that!" I lied. "Just wonderin what day?"

"16 of June. Paul's birthday was 2 days after it."

"Oh Well im going to go upstairs..." I walked upstairs. My bath was being used and Ringo's.

I knocked on my bathroom door. 

"Yeah?"

"Its Hanna. Just wanted you to nkow i was here." 

Ringo entered my room. "So?" he sat on my bed.

I looked at his blue eyes. I opened my mouth to say something then i looked away. Speechless.

"Hey, sis, its ok." He smiled. "You missed us, didn't you?"

"Uh..yeah." I lied...but i did miss them!

"Is everything ok?" 

"Yeah everything is fine RIngo!" I said smiling shyly.

"Ringo get your clothes and Paul's and bring them to the laundry." My mom said from downstairs.

"Paul's still in the bath mum!" Ringo called. 

"Tell him to get out. If you want him to get out." She called back.

I sighed. "Paul!" I knocked on the door.

"What?!" He replied. 

"Gosh you don't have to be so direct." I said.

He opened the door. "What do you want?" He said from behind the door, only his wet head was viewable.

"Mom wants you to get out."

"Ok, ok. Im just gettin out! Can you hand me a towel?"

i handed him a towel.

"Hey Hanna, Im goin' swimin' wanna come?" Ringo asked.

"Sure!!" I said. Headed to the bath but remembered Paul was in there.

"Paul do you wanna go swimming?" I heard him sigh annoyingly. 

"You don't have to. Heres your trunks if you want them."

He opened the door again. "Ok." 

"Now hand me mine."

He did so.

"Thanks." I went into Ringo's room to change.

Well lets pause for a moment...so today i found out that Paul and Ringo are my brothers. Paul still shares a room with me and Ringo has his own...since he's the oldest....

Back to the story;

I met Paul at the top of the stairs. I had on a swim shirt and short shorts. So did Paul.

"Race ya!" Paul tagged me and we started flying downstairs and outside.

We held hands and jumped in. Making a huge splash.

"Ug thanks guys."

"Oh Rings, your in a swimming pool yer supposed to get wet!" I splash Paul.

"Ow!"

"Paul!" I said.

"Well you splashed me at the wrong time!" he complained.

"Sorry." I hugged him.

"Lets race!" Ringo suggested

We agreed.

MARIA's MORNING

I was watching tv when some one jumped on me. I screamed.

"GET OFF!! HELP!!"

"George! Careful with the bird!" (John?)

A young George and John were in here. George was hugging me and John just stood there.

"Oh my! Why'd ya do that?" I asked getting George off.

"He was happy to see you. We came home from camp. Mum picked us up." John told me.

I stared at him. I was stund.

"John...How long have you been here?" I asked.

"Uh since...uh umm I was maybe 12??...your parents adopted me and George. And remember the other 2 moved in with Hanna!" he snaped his fingers and grinned.

"oh. I see." I looked at George, now had his eyes fixed on the TV.

"How was it?"

"Fine I guess. I wrote a song! Paul helped me!"

"Cool!"

"Wanna hear it?" He smiled.

"ok let's go!" we went to what was to be the Boys room and John got his guitar. (where'd all this stuff come from!!??)

He started singing and strumming away. He had a nice voice just like...What the heck?? He IS John Lennon!

"Whats it called?" I asked once it was done.

"I don't have a name. What do you think?"

"hmm I'll have to think about that."

"Wanna make pop corn and watch a movie??" he asked.

"Sure!"

We went and got pop corn and joined George watching tge TV.

"Ill be right back boys. Got to call a friend! Which I forgot!" I got up and rang Hanna.

HANNA's HOUSE

My mom call me and said Maria wanted to talk to me. It was ergent.

I dried off and went inside and picked up the phone.

"Hello, Maria?"

"Hey! Is Paul and Rings over there??"

"yeah. What bout yours?"

"yup! And they seem to have lived with me since kids!"

"Same here!" I exclaimed."Do you all wanna come over and swim?"

"Sure! We'll be right over!"

They came 20minutes later.

Life was going good for me and Maria so far!
