I walked down stairs to greet my mother downstairs. I could smell the savory scent of bacon frying from the kitchen. I hopped down the stairs, I was staving, but when I get downstairs there is just a note, a plate of eggs and bacon, a glass of orange juice and some money for my lunch. I picked up the sloppily written note off of the table.
Dear Raygen,
I had to go into work early this morning. There was a code blue emergency! They needed me to be there immediately. Grant is upstairs in his room he will be okay until the babysitter gets here. Make sure you tell Grant to watch Karlen, she is upstairs in her crib asleep. Call the babysitter before you leave the number is on the fridge, her name is Lindsey. Parker is also in his room but he will be leaving later today to stay the night at Drake's house. You have to take him there. Be sure to mop the floor and clean your brothers' and sister's rooms. Okay, see you tonight at 11:00, I volunteered to work late.
She might as well just live at work. I'm left to take care care of my brothers, Grant and Parker, and my twin sisters, Karlen and Rayden. Grant is 8, Parker is 12, Karlen and Rayden are 8 months, and I'm 18. I'm out of school next semester, so tha means just like every summer, I don't get to do anything because I have to watch my brothers and sisters
