        The next day, after the swim meet, I was SUPER tired. It was Saturday. All of my limbs hurt. I decided to stay in bed and try to fall back asleep. No such luck. After about five minutes, my brother knocked on my door. 

"Claire! Time to get up! I made you breakfast!" He hollered from outside my door.

"OK! Im coming!" I hate it when people want me to get up. I reluctantly got up, stumbled over to my walk-in closet, and grabbed a pair of sweatpants and a black shirt. I put them on and dragged myself downstairs. When I got down, I asked my brother why he got me up so early. 

"No reason. I just wanted to." He said shrugging.

I glared at him. "I would punch you but I don't feel good so your lucky." I grumbled.

"Someones in a bad mood eh?" He said. " Oh and good job last night."

   I smiled at the thought of the swim meet last night. I had dropped time in all of my races last night and beaten Katie. My coach was proud of me. 

"Thanks, you too."

My brother currently holds three state records. He is super fast. 

"Where's mom?" I asked while my brother r handed me a plate of eggs and toast. Our dad is a famous singer so he is on a world tour right now.

"She left to go to Seattle with some friends for two weeks remember?" He said.

" Oh yeah. I forgot" I finished up my eggs got a Advil, and went back upstairs to sleep. I don't know why I was so tired. 

   After another few minutes, there was another knock on my door. Ugh, can't I ever get some peace and quiet around here? I thought angrily as I opened the door. My  brother was leaning casually against the door  frame. 

"Hey Claire, I was wondering if you wanted to play a game." He asked

" Nope I don't actually." I said.

" Really? You love playing games. We could play Twister?"

I love playing games. Especially Twister. That game is my all-time favorite. 

"NO. Im not in the mood. I just wanna go sleep." I whined.

" Are you ok?" My brother asked worriedly. His brow crinkled.

" Yes I am."

"Ok, but you look a little sick. Call me if you need anything." he said.

"Ok. Bye" I said and quickly shut the door.
