ONE SUMMER [A Before You Exit Fanfiction] | ✓

Chapter 1

Chapter 1

I only had 1 more day before I would go to that stupid camp. Before spending my 2 months of summer in camp, I have a day to spend time with Dad and Matthew.

At the moment, I’m at my dad’s building at the lobby area waiting for dad to appear. He wanted me and Matthew to have a sister-brother-father time. And I was fine with it since I’m pretty close to Matt than his 2 older brothers and dad is my dad. He still has a right to spend time with me. My mum was also fine with it since she’s packing for a trip. She’s going to Japan for a search. She wants to manage Asian teens and train them to be the best. And she doesn’t want me to go with her. Well, I want to go with her but I’m going to camp tomorrow and she’s leaving tomorrow.
My mum and dad get upset when they can’t give me enough attention and care, even if I’m already 17. I might be annoyed of it but I honestly love it. I don’t want any material things from mum or dad, all I want is their presence and their love for little old Samantha.

“Hey, Sam.” A husky, cute male voice said. I turned around and saw my half-brother, Matthew with dad right behind him.

“Hey Matt.” I said and pinched his always rosy cheeks.

“Are you ready for camp, sissy?” he questioned. I like his little nickname but I prefer Sam.

“What ya think?”

“I think you are ready.” He said with a cheeky smile. Note the sarcasm in his cute Irish voice. This 10 year old never fails to make me smile.

“Ya think?” I squealed. Then he chuckled. I looked at dad and he was confused. “Dad, you’ll never understand us.” I said and patted dad’s shoulder.

“I’ll never be able to understand the two of you.” He smirked. “How come you don’t have this thing with Stephen and Julian? Why only with Matthew?”

“To be honest, Dad, I don’t know.” I lied since I know the reason why. Both Stephen and Julian dislike Sam. They were both influence by their mum, who also dislike me and my mum. For sure, she can’t accept that we are still dad’s first family and she just came second. But I’ve been trying my best to be super nice to Aunt Angelica, Stephen and Julian but nothing ever works. Not even just keeping myself as quiet as a mouse when she’s around. I don’t want her to get all so arrogant and such a total bitch to me. “And I like it better this way.” I said leaving dad confused again.

We got to the floor where dad’s big office is located. Once we were in my dad’s office, Matthew pulled me towards a corner in the room where there was a table, 2 computer sets and some other things that aren’t that important. Matt, as I called him, turned one computer on and pleaded for me to turn on the other computer as well. I did what he wanted and later on we played random games.

“You know, Sam, I’m gonna miss you...” He stated.

I might not spend a lot of time with dad, but with Matt, I do. I always go to his place and bring him along with me and mum to the studio. Mum’s completely okay with Matt being around. She doesn’t care about the fact that Matt is dad’s son with Angelica. Mum treats Matt the way I treated Matt and the way she treated me when I was a little girl. “I’ll miss you too, Matt. I’ll miss you a lot.” I said.

“Sam, Matt, what do you like to do, aside from staying in my office and playing those games?” Dad stated. “Maybe we can go to some place. What do you think?”

“I don’t know, Dad. You have things to att---” I said but was cut by Matt.

“That would be great.” Matt reacts. “I wanna go to the Ocean Park and swim with fishes!”
