Mailo(butler)- mai (my)
Sammy(brother)- Sasa / Sam
Andrew(dad)- Andy / papá / dad
Daniella(mum)- Dani / mamá / mum
Liliana(sister/main character)- Li (Lee) / lil

I get dressed and run downstairs.
Breakfast is waiting for me and  my dad comes into the room and sits in front of me.

"Hola papá." I greet

"Hola, Li. OK, so today Mi and Mai are having a day off, me and mamá are going out for work, and Sasa is going to his friends."he states "so, you are going to have to stay with the Oradon family for a day."

My mouth hangs open and my dad closes it.

"Im sorry, but its the only way we can leave without you coming. Ok. Before you go mad, get in the car, mamá is already there." He says and drags me to the car.

At the Oradon house hold

I knock on the door and it immediately opens slightly. I step in, and a boy, about my age, peeks at me from behind the wall. Then the same boy peeks at me from the other side of the corridor. Then he walks out. From both sides.

Then both of him say at the same time "Hi! You must be Liliana! We are the Oradon quadruplets!"

That makes so much more sense when 2 girls, who look identical to each other and the boys come out.

"Hi im Jessie!"

"And im Bessie!"

"And im Jake!"

"And im Blake!"

They say one by one. "Im Liliana..." I mumble.

They pull me into the house and close the door behind me. "Jessie! Bessie! Jake! Blake! Stop torturing the poor girl!" A lady shouts, once they let me go she says "Hi Liliana, im Jessie, Bessie, Jake and Blake's mum. I have another child, but he's older than all of you. Ah here he is now, Charlie, dear come here. Meet Liliana!" She says as the guy i slapped comes down the stairs.

He smiles at me and i mumble "Mrs. Oradon, you guys can just call me Li..."

And she says "oh, OK dear. And you can just call me Caroline" then she smiles at me "The kids have a whole day planned out for you and them to enjoy. Jessie, Bessie, Jake, Blake, don't you?" They all nod excitedly.

Then they bring me up to a room, telling me to get changed into 1 of the swimming suits on the bed. Then they leave me to it.

I look at the swimming suits. All of them are bikinis! I absolutely hate bikinis, they show too much skin.

At last i pick a white bikini with yellow polka dots on it. It reminds me of my childhood song 'Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini'.

When i go down, Blake carries me, bridal style, to a car and i giggle like a baby.

Their mum drives us to the beach but not just any beach a private beach. The beach i used to go to as a child. My eyes light up at the sight of it, my dad and Sab's dad used to own this beach and our families were the only ones that could get in there, or dads sold it when we made friends with Sabi because they said that soon enough we would have so many friends and the beach would get trashed, but we still haven't made any more friends. I guess the Oradon family were the ones who bought it.

As soon as Caroline parks i jump out of the car with the J's and B's. Then i say "how can i tell you guys apart? Even the boys look like girls... And the girls look like boys..."

They laugh at me and 1 of them says "Its easy! I have greenish-grey eyes and Jake has blueish-grey eyes. Im Blake by the way. Jessie has the same eyes as me, and Bessie has the same eyes as Jake, and the girls usually wear girly stuff, so you'll know which ones are the girls."

I look into their eyes and then nod. "You're right!" He nods and then he puts me over his shoulder like a potato sack. "Oh my god. Im gonna fal-" i get cut off as he picks me up and places me on his shoulders like my dad used to do when we were watching fireworks.

When i see surf boards, i point at them excitedly. "You can surf?" Blake asks

"Well... I got some skills..." I reply.

After a whole day of Blake, Jake and I surfing, Caroline and Bessie sun bathing and Charlie and Jessie swimming. We finally go back to their house, once we're in the house, Charlie runs upstairs to his bedroom, slamming the door behind him. "Sorry about Charlie, he just has some serious trust issues, and always locks himself up in his bedroom..." Jessie says rolling her eyes.

I nod and then a big yawn comes out of my mouth. "Oh. Sweety. If you're tired you better get going! Its getting late anyways!" Caroline says.

"By the way, you're extremely good at surfing!" Blake compliments me

"Thanks" Blake and I have actually gotten to know each other in the last 24 hours.

When I get home I'm exhausted, so I walk slowly up to my room and collapse on my bed. today was fun.

Just as I'm about to fall asleep, I hear a scream...
