The Needle to the Sky and Space

My mom, dad and younger sister had come out to visit me in my home in Bellevue, WA. My sister had never been to Washington, and wanted to see so many sights, one including the Space Needle. On their last day of their week long trip, we went to the Space Needle. My mom wanted me to spend some time with my sister, Laura, so she decided that my mom and dad would walk around while Laura and I spent time on the Space Needle. I remember I had finally got to the top of the Space Needle, and jeez, there was a view! You could see the whole city and more!

"Rylem, come on!" Yelled my sister. I sighed and continued walking with my younger sister.

As I watched my sis gape in awe over the view, a lady tapped on my shoulder. She was holding a cute little baby.

"Hello, do you mind taking a picture of my husband and I?" She said, holding put her phone with a smile.

"Sure!"

She handed me her phone and called over her husband.

"Adam, come over here!"

I see a man with a short brown beard walk over, and I almost dropped the phone. I shook off the feeling of knowing this man, and took the family's photo. My brain kept saying that it was just a coincidence, and that it would never happen. The woman said thank you and proceeded to show her young child the view of the city.

Just then, a email pinged on my phone. I was about to look at it when Laura grabbed my arm and showed me the view of the ocean.

"It's so cool up hear! You can see for miles!" I smiled, knowing my sister was happy. At this time, we decided to go back down the elevator. Oddly, the couple that had me take their picture was on that same elevator.

When we reached the bottom, we walked out and Laura ran straight to our parents to tell them all about it before their turn. I looked around the area, silently hoping it wouldn't rain, until a few people caught my eye. Their was a red head, a man with a slightly bald head and a beard, and once again, the couple. It then hit me. I knew these people. Personally, no, but from videos? Yes. I looked at the email I got. It informed me that I got the job I interviewed for. I was filled with joy when my dad spoke up.

"Rylem? Is there any particular reason for you grinning like an idiot?"

"Mom, Dad, I got it! I got the job!"

My mom squealed and came up to hug me. After she hugged me for a solid few seconds, she told me that she wanted to go get some popcorn before we go. My dad and her went off, and Laura was looking at her phone. She had a YouTube video pulled up.

"Whatcha watching there?"

"Uh, nothing..."

"Come on, I'm your older sis. I can tell when you're hiding something."

"Well, it has to do with Minecraft..."

At that point, I tilted her scene over so I could see. She was watching SkyDoesMinecraft. I smiled and grabbed the phone.

"H-hey! Give it back!"

I held it in the direction that the group was still standing, and Laura grabbed her phone. She looked over and gasped.

"Oh my gosh! It's them! Can I go say hi? Please?"

"Heh, sure."

I watched my sister walk over to them and say hi. She looked very happy. I wanted to tell her badly, but I wanted to surprise her. She waved goodbye after a while and headed back to me, no continued watching her video. I saw that the man I had grown to know as "Red" was looking over at me. He said something to the group, and started to walk over to me.
