A Twin's Life

Chapter 3 Meet Sheryl

Dylan's Point of View

"Now, now." Mom said. Today's their flight to Tokyo so she's packing her things.

"Every morning, you have to cook breakfast. You can buy groceries if you run out of stack." Mom reminded Sheryl.

"Check their bags before going to school, prepare their packed lunch, and make sure they potty before going to bed."

"Got it all Ma'am!" What??!

"Mom?! What are you talking about? Ya don't have to hire a babysitter, we're mature gentlemen." I protested.

"That's right! It's not like we will cause Dylan any trouble Dylan like a child Dylan." Cole said while looking at me.

"Well, it's not like I am boring Cole that I will do the homework Cole which is due next month Cole."

"What kind of goof Dylan would not take a bath Dylan for a month Dylan?"

"What kind of--" I was about to answer when Dad cut me.

"Dang flabbit! We're not even gone yet and you're already arguing! What more if we're not here anymore?"

"Hon, should we postpone the trip?" Mom asked.

"No! No! We are B-F-F!" I embraced my brother.

"You reek! Get O-F-F!" He pushed me like a lady.

"Sheryl, don't forget all my reminders." Mom said.

"And most importantly, don't ever EVER let them get off of your sight." Dad added.

Dang it. Why do they have to hire a Momster (Monster Mom) for us? We can handle ourselves! --or at least I can.

"Whatever Dad." Cole and I said. Mom kissed our chicks.

"Bye, kids. Don't play pranks on Sheryl, okay?" You wish.

"Of course Mom. I'll be a good boy." I said. Anything for them to finally leave.

We just got home from school. I'm currently playing my favorite video game while Sheryl is cooking dinner.
"Dylan? What are you doing?" Cole asked.

"Playing Sumo Slummer. Didn't I said I'm gonna be good?"

"In that case , why aren't you doing your project in Science?"
"I said I'm gonna be good not boring. That's your job." He shook his head. I stood and put my arms over his.

"Bro, this is our chance to have fun! No put that down, no stop eating junk foods, and no hit the hay at 8pm."

"You know what, you're right! Why don't we have some real fun? Let's go!"

"See, that's what I was talking about!" I dropped the controller and we're about to ran outside when--.

"Hep! Hep! Where are you going?"

"Outside?" I answered Sheryl.

"Be home before 7."

"Yes Mom." Cole and I said sarcastically.

Cole's Point of View

Dylan turned on the lights on the backyard and took the basket ball.

"Here!" He passed me the ball. "I know it's not easy since you're a beginner but let's see what you got." He said. I glared at him and stepped on the free throw line our Dad drew.

"It ain't really hard. All you have to do is form an isosceles triangle with the objects around like that rock intersecting the ring diagonally. And if you calculate the angle and parabolic trajectory, you should be able to find the coordinates of the target and hit it considering the gravitational pull."
