             (Roxy's P. O. V)

I couldn't sleep.

Not like I used to anyway. No matter how hard I try sleep never comes. I close my eyes but I'm still awake. This has been my everyday routine for the past five years.

It's actually not that bad. People can't survive without sleep, but here I am. Living and breathing.

I sigh before getting up from the floor. I decided to change into some training clothes. Once I was done, I went straight to the indoor gym and trained the whole night.

*********

"Roxy!" I heard someone call out to me while I was lifting weights. I dropped it and left the gym.

"Roxy!" I followed the direction of the voice. "ROXY!" I covered my ears as it got louder.

"Jesus Christ!" I whined covering my ears. I bumped into someone, I looked down and my eyes became watery.

"Ah! there you are!" She exclaimed and hugged my legs. My hands unconsciously caressed her hair.

"Raelynn" I whispered, I almost didn't believe she's here. I looked down and saw that she was sitting on a wheelchair my smile immediately dropped.

Why haven't they found a doctor to fix her! I must solve this issue. My anger flared, must I do everything myself! Why haven't the rest done it yet?!

Are they so busy with their companies that they can't help their little sister? But then again I've been busy as well. And it is my job, I am the oldest after all. No. My little sister must walk, she just has to.

I grabbed a hold of her handle and started rolling her towards the dinning room. The rest should be having breakfast by now.

"How have you been sweetie?" I asked.

"Great! There's so much I always wanted to talk to you about! I can't wait to introduce you to all my dolls! There's Julie, Fiona, Carmen...." I blanked out once she started giving me a long list of her dolls.

She seems like a very enthusiastic child. She should be the light of the house. We finally reached the dinning room and I was right, everyone was here. Except Rolland and James.

"Good morning." I greeted them.

"Good morning." They replied. I spot Ruby smiling at me widely.

"Why are you so happy this morning?" I ask her as I sit opposite her while Ronan is at my left. Raelynn rolled herself and sat next to Ruby. The dinning table was quite long. They were twelve chairs on either side. And one seat at the head.

"It's just so nice to finally have breakfast with you, after so long." She said and I nodded silently.

"Where's Rolland?"

"Oh! He went to go screw some chick last night." Ruby said and my eyes widen.

"His girlfriend?" I ask. Geez, I never knew he had one. Ronan snorts beside me.

"Rolland doesn't do girlfriends." He said.

"Yeah, he only screws them and then throws them away." Ruby said and I shuddered in disgust.

"He hasn't gotten any of them pregnant, right?" I ask. I mean it would be cool to be an Aunty.

"Not yet at least." Ronan says making me chuckle.

"But he'll be here soon for breakfast." Ruby assured me. I see Ranger on the far other side of the table. He is very quiet. He has his elbow propped on the table and rests his head on his palm. He was just playing with his food.
