My brother

There was a picture of the wedding from my parents, one with me, and one of a guy I think from my age group "Who is that?" I asked "that's your brother" I heard a deep voice say.

I turned my head around to see a guy the same height as me with freckles, glasses, green eyes and brown hair. The only thing that was different between us was our gender, he looked at me and smiled "Wow we really look-a-like" He said "Hahah yeah I was thinking the same thing" "well I'm Joey, and you must be Amanda I suppose.." "Yes, I'm amanda nice to meet you, Joey" "nice to meet you too, Amanda" we hugged eachother and talked for a little while about each-other and stuff.
"I uhm, can see you guys already have a g-good bond with each-other" Kathy stuttered slowely "So uh Amanda, I have to tell you something come with me" I nodded my head and followed her. We entered a big room with my name written in the wood of apparently my bed, a big closet, and television on the wall.

"You must have a lot of questions, don't you?" "Yes.. Yes I do" "well, ask me every question" "uhm okay, first of why didn't you raise me yourself and let me be adopt?" "Well, at the time you and your brother where born we didn't expect to get twins, we where low on money too" "w-wait so joey is my twin, brother??" "Uhm y-yes, but we where low on money and your father didn't want to be in debt because of you guys and let you be adopted without me knowing, I was at work when he did it, when I got at home I searched for you and found a letter in your bedroom 'Sweet Kathy I know this might made you insanely mad at me but I don't think I had another chance to do this, I didn't want to do this but I think it is best for us, I let Amanda adopt. It didn't take a long time for me to find another family that was perfect for her" my mom said.
I looked at my mom and hugged her "I'm happy to know that the reason that you let me adopt wasn't because I was unwanted"

After a couple hours of talking it almost felt like I knew them my whole life, she was just like I thought she would be.
"I hope you know enough about me" she said smiling "I know more than enough" I said we walked to the Living room and a couple seconds after I entered someone bumped into me and gave me a hug "I am so happy to finally meet you" I heard Joey saying, I hugged him back and said "I'm happy to finally meet you too" "so.. Where did you live all this time?" He asked "I lived with 3 families all in LA a-" "IN LOS ANGELES WHY DID YOU LEAVE OMG THATS SO COOL!!" "Eh, well I wanted to meet my pare-" "HOW IS LIVE THERE I NEED TO KNOW EVERYTHING!" " to meet my parents and it's pretty co-" "DID YOU MEET ANY FAMO-" "JUST LET ME TALK GODDAMNIT!" I said while laughing ".... Ohw hehe I'm sorry I think I was a little bit too curious" "it's fine, so as I was saying Life is pretty cool there but sometimes it can be so hot there and so crowded! And I think because it's so crowded that I never have been able to meet them, I have seen Lar- I mean Louis and Harry running past me but they where chased by the paps" " Louis and Harry you mean Louis and Harry from 1 Direction right?" ".... Wich other Louis and Harry would I be talking about!?" "Hahaha idk" he said laughing he walked closer to me and hugged me while whispering "I'm so happy to know you're my sister you're amazing, please never leave" At that moment I realized that I had to choose between two families: one of I've lived with for 13 years but is not related to me, or the one that I've know for 10 hours but is related to me. A tear went down my cheek and it fell on Joey's shoulder "a-are you crying?" He asked slowly "Kinda yes.." I said while whipping those lil baby tears away "I'm sorry that I'm crying I just remembered something I don't like" " What did you remember?" He asked me " That I have to choose between this family or the family in LA to live with...." I looked at his face and saw his eyes grow, he slowly opened his mouth and said "What!? No are you serious, that can't be! You're staying with us right?! Right? Tell me you're staying here Please!!" "I don't want to talk about it now, I've just met you and begining to know you and I still have 3 months to decide and I know those 3 months won't be long but we are gonna make it the best 3 months of our life!" I said "do you promise that?" "yes! Ofcourse I do why would I say that otherwise?!" I smiled.
We walked to the kitchen and mom was making dinner "Oh hey sweeties! I'm making mac 'n cheese, are you okay with that Amanda?" She said happy " I don't mind at all! I love mac 'n cheese!" "REALLY YOU DO TOO!?" Joey yelled "YES!" I yelled back "OMG WE HAVE SO MU-" "GUYS! Can you please do that in the living room!?" Mom laughed at us "hehehe sorry mom!" Joey answered uncomfortably.

One hour later
"FOOD IS READY" I heard my mom yell from downstairs "I'm coming!" I yelled back, I put my bag in the corner of the room and walked downstairs.
I got to the kitchen and sat on a chair "well Amanda, I hope you had a great time here for today :)" my dad said "yes I did I liked today :)" I said back smiling.
