Something Like Normal. XII

YURI

I stuffed a chip in my mouth, "Maybe his plane got delayed and he couldn't make it. Or decide not to come, it isn't much of a problem if he didn't. I mean, it's not the end of the world." I said as I stuffed my mouth.

"Nervous?" Jocelyn asked.

"What makes you say that?" I asked and a chunk of chewed chip flew out of my mouth landing on her face.

"That." she said in disgust as she wiped it it off her face. "And you eat when you're nervous and start babbling."

"Sorry," I said. "I haven't seen my father in over a year so I am a little."

"You shouldn't be though." she said as she put her hand on my arm. "It's your father, siblings, and step mom. It's not like you're first meeting them."

I stuffed another chip in my mouth, "Arina makes their visit less exciting."

"I'm excited to meet Eva and Leo, their such cuties in the photos." she said. "They're four now right?"

"Da," I said and brought the bag up my mouth, the crumbs falling on my mouth.  "I hear their demons so Arina leaves them with a nanny as she goes out with get friends."

"Whole told you that?" she asked,  grinning. "You?"

"Maybe." I said and leaned down, pecking her on the mouth. She blushed but smiled. "She is the wicked witch of the west."

"Do you ever think she does love your dad? He is pretty handsome man." she said.

I brought my hand up and ran it down her face, "Let's never says that again." I said and she chuckled. "She was 23 year old working on my father set who was married already. I don't like her. She is always complaining."

"Well isn't that their plane?" she asked pointing out the window where a plane landed. "Right on time."

"I need a drink." I groaned as I went over to the vending machine and got a soda. I chugged a few sips as I joined next to Jocelyn. 

I saw them coming down an elevator and my father leaned down to my siblings, pointing at me. The twins pressed their faces against the window and waved at me with excitement. I forced a smile on my face and waved at them.

When the doors opened, they both ran over to me. Both their heads were blonde as white since their mother was a blonde and had the most green eyes as I remember. They both latched onto my legs.

"Yuri!" they both yelled as they said how much they missed my even though I doubt they remembered me. It had been awhile and they were only turning three when I left.

I pulled them apart from my legs and leaned down to them, "Eva, Leo, look how big you two are." I said to them in Russian and Eva wrapped her arms around my neck tightly. I lifted her up onto my hip as I got up, "Eva, Leo this is my friend Jocelyn but she said you two can call her Joy if it is hard for you both to say."

"Hi." Eva said in English which is probably the only thing she could since a blush appeared in those chubby cheeks.

"Aw, aren't you the both the cutest little kids in the world!" Jocelyn said to them both.

I told them what she said and they both giggled and Leo said she was very pretty.

When my dad finally got to us with the witch latched to his arm, I put Eva down and step towards my dad, "Hey dad." I said in English and he took his arm out of the witches arm so he could hug me.

"So grown, almost as tall as me now." he said as he patted my shoulders when we pulled apart. "Handsome also, those cheeks finally thinned out."

"Already speaking like an American." Arina said in Russian since she didn't know any English. I didn't hug her.
