"Soph, I'm on my way. Meet me at the driveway." I quickly say and hang up.
It's weird to think that Lorelay's name was replaced by Jaclyn in my mind. I didn't let myself love because all of the girls were the same, they all just wanted to be kissed by the most popular guy on school. And my parents were rich, so that played a role in their opinion as well. But not Jaclyn. She didn't know me like that. She didn't know I have a Lamborghini because of my parents. But my parents aren't stereotypical rich people. They're so caring and kind. My little sister is the sweetest girl I know as well. She keeps standing up for less fortunate. I think she got it from me. I got lost in my mind again.
Oh, I need to park somewhere, Sophie is once again taking forever.
Once we came to my house, Tally met me at the front door and I picked her up into a hug. I love my little sister. She's my hero, that's why I also wanted to name her like that. The meaning behind her name is "hero".
"Jason, I'm so hungry.", complained Sophie. "Can we order pizza?"
"Tally, do you want me to help with pizza making? Sophie can help, too.", I mischievously smiled at Sophie.
"YEY, WE'RE MAKING PIZZA!", shouted my little sister.
"You're going to be all white from flour, Jason. You're with me on that one, right?", Sophie looked at Tally.
"Tally, you're on my side. You know what it means when you aren't."
"No, not Mr. Tickle Monster! Please, don't. I'm always on your side, big bro."
"That's what I wanted to hear.", I faced Sophie: "Look who's a winner now."
"Not you, whitey!" and she threw a dash of flour at my face.
"Oh, it's on!"
And like that the pizza took way long that it should at first. But I didn't mind. Sleepovers with Soph are always fun. And it's great because Daniel isn't jealous at all. He knows that I wouldn't take advantage of his trust. He always had my back and I don't want to return it to him by kissing his girl. That's why when it's 3 A.M. we lay in bed, facing each other as she says: "TALK!" And I instantly know what she means. She wants to talk about my hospital visit.
"Well, ..." I start. And the clock suddenly turns to 5.
"Jason, awh you're falling in love."
