After school ended I walk home. I open the door to my house and hear crying coming from upstairs. Jogging up the steps I enter the nursery room and find my baby brother in his crib,eyes wide and teary. When I lean over the crib he stops crying and starts babbling at me. Probably lecturing me for not being there when he woke up.

My brother has the same violet-black hair and everything like me except his eyes. One of his eyes is a light forest green while the other is this shimmering gold  color. I thought this was strange at first but before my parents died they told me that when my mom was pregnant with me and my brother she felt something. She felt like she was carrying something powerful,something.....special. I shake my head clearing the memory from my thoughts, it's not the time for tears. I need to be strong for Gabriel.

I look down at my little bro and see him staring at me with his head cocked to the side as if he was asking what was wrong.
" Did you miss me while I was gone"? He smiled and let out a squeal then giggled.
" I'll take that as a yes". I said laughing as well. "Now let's go see what dad and papa have to eat over at their house,sound good"? My brother turns his head and drools on my wrist. I guess he's hungry. With that I put his jacket and shoes on and head out the door.
