     I turned off the porch light and put the knife away. Maybe I was seeing things, I mean kale did wake me up in the middle of the night. For cheese. I decided to shrug it off and head to kales door, I reached for the door but stopped. 

    I told him I was going to play a game with him, so I collected the kitchen chairs and like 50 blankets. I built a fort in the guest room a couple doors down from mine, and don't worry, I didn't forget the special touch. Cheese. I got two slices of cheese and put them on the blanket under the fort. Then headed towards his door knowing that he would like the fort. 

    When I got in front of his door, I knocked and heard tiny feet pattering their way to the door. When it opened kale popped his little head out and looked at me with a confused face. "What kind of game is this," he said messing up the words a bit. 

   I mean he talked like that because he was little but also because he was adopted by my parents when he was 3. They had adopted him from a korean family because his parents passed away tragically in a car crash, but they didn't have any other family so yeah. We legally changed his name because we didn't think that Manse fit him very well.

     Except for now, our parents said they are thinking about changing it back soon so he doesn't get too stuck on being called kale. 

   I lead him towards the living room while holding his hand. And when we reached our destination he had a huge smile plastered on his face and he ran and plopped into the fort. 

So Freakin' Cute!!!!!!

    "Okay' i'll turn on the TV but after you eat the cheese you have to go to sleep, alright buddy," I said more like a statement. "okay sissy thank you," he gave me a huge hug followed by a kiss on the cheek. I followed his actions and gave him a kiss on the cheek, I got up and  checked to see if the windows were locked one more time and left for my room while waving. I went inside my room and left the door cracked just to listen if something happens.

      I turned out the light in my bedroom and ran to the bed for reasons. See I also have this older brother, Arthur, and he likes to pull pranks. I also used to have a little brother that was three years younger than me but when I was twelve he passed due to a heart condition. We got the name kale from my passed brother. Anyways, Five years ago I was okay with sleeping alone until one night I was headed towards my room, I had a bunk bed and kale was sitting on the top watching TV.

    I walked in and began to sit my butt on my bed but what I didn't know was that Arthur was under my bed waiting for me. He grabbed my ankle so fast and held tight, I freaked out, I jumped up and ran out of my room screaming while running downstairs to my mom in the kitchen. she turned around worriedly and asked what had happened. Then I heard laughing, I went back to my room and got mad at them but playfully. 

 A tear slipped down my cheek and brought me back to reality. I turned on my side and drifted off to sleep. 


My alarm clock went off, which woke me up with a jolt. Dang, that thing is so loud. I got up and turned off my clock, then went to my dresser to grab my outfit for the day.
