I ran as my long brown hair was up in a ponytail so it swayed side to side. The cool breeze would hit my face which filled me with tranquillity until I spotted the long banner that indicated the finish line up ahead. The sight of the red and blue banner fired me up, I bet my green eyes seem brighter and sparkling like my brother always tells me they are when I am close to winning. Laughing a little to my self I increased my running speed so that I was right next to my brother who was obviously in the lead.
Seeing as the wind blew his short brown hair out of his way he could see the finish line perfectly. “Hey, lil sis race you to the finish line” and with that he ran as fast as he could to the finish line. Hmph... if he thought that she was going to lose this time he was so wrong, running after him I catch up to him in a couple of seconds. The finish line came into a closer view we were both nose to nose. We both dashed across the finish line and were hit with a big flash from the camera. Stopping to catch some air one of our trainers came over running with two water bottles in his hands. “Hey guys nice run” he said handing the water bottles over to us, we took them from him and started drinking non stop until it was all gone. “Thanks Andy” we both replied at the same time “seriously that twin thing is still kinda freaky and i have known you since you guys were in like dippers” he said pointing his finger at both of us. We just laughed it off like always since us talking at the same time is not something really new.
Andy was the awesomest guy ever he has been our friend since well like he said “since we were in dippers.” His blond hair always cover his green-grayish eyes they look so unreal but that is his natural eye color. He always says that his eyes get him unwanted attention from the ladies, but since last year that he came out clean why he did not want no girl they all just admire him from afar or at least most do. He came clean because girls kept on bothering him so he told everyone that he was gay and let me tell you it was a disaster at first, then as time passed everyone began to understand that it was his choice no theirs. Sadly his dad does not see it as such at least not yet but I believe he will come around to accept it.
“Why can't there ever shut up” my brother mumbled “what was that Luis” I asked turning my attention to him. “The town gossipers their at it again” he said hatred clearly in his tone, I turned and looked at the town gossipers. It was a small group of five middle aged women who where whispering and looking at us. I wish they could just let it go and shut their mouth for once in their life. I know what they are saying we hear it all the time ‘oh poor santos twins their mother left them at just five years old’ or ‘poor santos how hard must be hard livening with a father with a tough job and no mother, how sad.’ I really disliked them and so does my brother we don’t need their stupid pity looks we were happy being with our dad he is and always will be the best parent ever. I turned around to look at my brother “ don’t worry about their just old hags” I told my brother, he laughed at that. After they announced the winners sadly I placed second, my brother was first he had a big smile on his face. I was so close to slapping it off his face unlike everyone who thinks he is just happy he won, we make bets to make our races more interesting. I am now stuck with all his chores for two week easy bet but I still hate that goofy smile he has like he is king of the world or something.
All our friends then came up to us and congratulated us for winning first and second place. It was about five in the afternoon so we hopped in our black toyota hybrid, that our dad got us for our birthday last year. Our dad was not always around but that came with his job so it was okay, I still think secretly he sad about our mother. He is a wildlife ranger so he makes a lot of money but we don’t care. The drive home was silent I spent my time mostly looking out the window looking at the tree just pass by. Sigh... this was home well at least for me it was, I loved the forest ever since we were small. I still remember when my mom would walk with us in the forest, she also told us stories of a magical world where magic existed. She would tell us about creatures that lived there and how they could use magic but that memories are gone with the wind.
“Hey lil sis you want to get something to eat before we get home” luis asked bursting my memory bubble “oh sure how about some food at Angel’s Diner” I suggested. “ Sure lil sis, oh and by the way good job on your race today” he added “what good job, I lost to you, I guess I still need to get better” I told him “ well to me your the best rival I have, you can keep up with me when others cant” he said proudly with a smile. That is true but I still hated to lose no body like to lose “thanks I think” I said with a weird look on my face. The rest of the ride to the diner we talked about the race and my brother being the big brother he is told me some tips that I already knew. He is my only brother and I his only sister, since our dad is busy we watch each others backs. He parked into the parking lot and we got our and went into the diner. Its a little old fashion but in a cute way all around their are photos since the opening of the diner, it was like a little time machine for everyone in town. I looked around for a booth “ hey theres and empty booth over there” I said walking to it, I sat down my brother sat across from me. A waitress saw us and came over to our table “hello welcome to Angel’s diner I am amy and ill be taking your order today, what would you like to drink” she asked in a high voice. “A coke and dr. pepper” my brother answered for both of us “alrighty then ill bring your drinks and take your order” she said writing it down and walking away. “Well I already know what I want, how about you?” my brother asked, I nodded my head in response. We then started to talk about school, sports and other random stuff suddenly Luis rose one of his eyebrows, what was he looking at as I turned around ‘oh hell’ I thought to my self.
