Kai glanced back at the twins. Josie was playing with her barbie doll, while Lizzie was playing a game on her Ipad.
Kai felt the corner of his mouth turn up when Josie began to fly the barbie doll around like it was superman. She made sound effects as she played.
Lizzie didn't notice her sister as her headphones were on.
Kai looked forward, popping a pork rind in his mouth. He glanced out the window, spotting the sign indicating he was entering Portland.
It had been a long few days. Turns out road trips with little kids were exhausting. The twins kept getting into fights about what movie to watch and who gets to play with what toy.
And bathroom breaks.
Kai really hated the bathroom breaks. They constantly had to stop so the girls could go. But for some reason, they never had to go at the same time.
Thankfully, Kai was able to keep driving without having to stay at hotels. It had been 4 days.
He was never doing this again.
Especially since the twins were getting restless from being cooped up in the car.
"Uncle Kai, are we there yet?" Lizzie asked, taking off her headphones.
Josie lowered her doll and glanced at him as well.
"I'm bored."
"Well, good news, kiddos. We're almost there," Kai said, ignoring the relief he felt at that.
"Yay!" Lizzie and Josie cheered.
Kai smirked in amusement. "You guys want to listen to music?" Kai asked.
"Yeah," Lizzie said, cheerfully as Josie nodded in agreement.
Kai turned on the kid's station and the twins started singing along to the song that was on.
Thirty minutes later, Kai pulled into the driveway of his old house. When he parked the car, he glanced back at the twins.
"You two want to see where I grew up?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Mm-hmm," Josie said, nodding.
While Lizzie looked at him curiously. "You grew up here?" She asked, eyes flickering to the house.
"Yep," Kai replied as he pushed down the feeling of dread seeping into his gut.
Kai got out of the car and opened the side door. He quickly unbuckled Josie and lifted her out, putting her on the ground.
Kai grabbed Josie's backpack and shoved her toys into it, before putting it on Josie's back.
"Josie, wait for me and your sister on the porch," Kai said, closing the side door.
"Ok, Uncle Kai," Josie chirped. Then she ran over to the house and sat down on the porch.
Kai went over to the other side of the car and opened the door. He unbuckled Lizzie and lifted her onto his hip.
He grabbed her Ipad and put it into Lizzie's backpack. Then, he shouldered the backpack and shut the car door. He shifted Lizzie slightly and walked over to Josie.
Josie stood up excitedly. "Are we going in?" She asked, grinning.
"We are," Kai answered, amused despite the situation.
Josie ran over to the door with Kai following. Kai rested his hand on the doorknob. "Aperto"
The door unlocked, opening on its own, and the twins gasped.
