"Everybody smiles but no one ever admits whats behind that smile. Just like a serial killer wouldnt admit he did anything wrong."

I closed my eyes and let out a frustrated sigh.

I had tried everything to write a perfect essay for my drama class. I guess I was just having a rough day or month.

The essay was due next week and I had nothing written down except for two sentences that I managed to scribble down.

I had no inspiration to get me going. My life was boring and I had no action going on besides the usual everyday routine.

I was stuck between walls that seemed to get closer and closer together.

The harder I thought the more I had a headache which just stopped me from even getting ideas.

I needed some type of push to get me to write. I dont know, perhaps an exciting event.

"Aria, Santos, and Leah come down for dinner !" My mom yelled from downstairs.

She was just on time. I needed food in my system from working my brain so hard.

I got up from my seat in the study room and exited quietly.

I made my way down the stairs and into the kitchen. Both my sister and brother were there already.

"Aria help Santos and Leah set the table while I go do something" My mom ordered with a smile as she took her apron off and headed upstairs.

"Hey did you hear about Danny dumping the queen bee of the school ?" asked Leah.

"Who hasnt heard about that ? Its what everybody's been talking about." said Santos.

"He's right, news spreads fast when it comes to those two." I added to Santos statement.

Leah just nodded her head and finished setting the forks, spoons, and knives. While Santos setted the plates and I the glass cups.

"Ding Dong"

"I'll go answer it. Its probably dad who forgot he's keys in the car again." laughed Leah.

Santos and I just chuckled, probably remembering how much dad forgot his keys in the car. It happened so often that we had spare keys to the house and cars just in case.

"Mom ! There's someone at the door looking for you !" Yelled Leah.

I furrowed my eyebrows. Who could it possibly be ?

Curiosity got the best of Santos and I so we went to go look.

It was a man. A good looking man that is. He had a quif haircut and a nice suit. He looked young though what could he possibly want with my mom ?

Suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulder. It was my mom.

"Santos, Aria, Leah go in the kitchen and wait until I get there to serve dinner."

We all nodded our heads forcefully and obeyed when we all really wanted to do was know who the hell was that very attractive man.

"Who is that ?" we all said simultaneously.

We all shrugged our shoulders and went to the kitchen and sat down in our seats.

I pulled out my phone and checked for any missed calls or texts.

I had tons of them.

I had 5 unread texts from my bestfriend Kelsey and 2 from Jacob, One of my closest friends. I checked them all and replied to them both. It was just about Danny and Queen bee's breakup, nothing interesting.

I checked my Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, and Facebook notifications then exited out seeing that there was nothing interesting going on.

I was already bored so I decided to just go on Vine and watch funny videos. 

It took for about 20 minutes for my mom to stop talking to that unknown man and for my dad to finally arrive.

I was starving and so were Santos and Leah. If one more minute went by without me being fed I would totally go Hulk and start smashing everything. 

If you haven't noticed by now I really love food.

"So how did it go today at work ?" asked my mom.

"It went okay I guess." my dad answered as he ate another fork full of lasagna.

I couldn't blame him though, this lasagna was so good.

"Define okay, You seem a bit off Raul." said my mom in a worrying tone.

"I'm fine Cynthia." My dad stated with an annoyed look.

My mom just looked at him for a second before returning to her food.

Santos, Leah, and I all just looked at each other and shrugged our shoulders. It was kind of a twin thing.

.......
