"Come on dumbhead let me get you ready for bed." Jacob states

"Why it's only 4:30 and I'm not a dumbhead," Tim responds, "Becca says that if you call me that it means you're the dumbhead."

"Keep telling yourself that Tim," Jacob mutters walking down the hallway.

"Wait you have to get me ready for to bed," Tim calls running up to him.

"Get in your bed!" Jacob commands after opening Tim's room door and pointing at Tim's bed.

"I have to brush my teeth first," Tim rexplains

"Ugh this is going to take forever, and I have to go somewhere to Becca after this" Jacob groans

'Oh, that's why he's acting so rushed, well other than the fact that he doesn't like me, I want to go to.' Tim summarizes in his head

"Where are you going? Can I come?" Tim asks eagerly

"No, you can't and it's none of your business retard, now go brush your teeth." Jacob scoffs.

"Barry, I have to write an apology letter you gotta leave," Rebecca says contemplating on what to write

"No, me stway." Barry declares

"Fine you can stay Barry," Rebecca replies "Hey what do you think I should write about in the apology letter."

"Me don't knwo"

-------------------------------------------------One hour later-------------------------------------------------

"You done getting ready for bed" Jacob inquires in an annoyed voice.

"You have to read me a bedtime story," Tim replies.

"I'm not reading you a bedtime story," Jacob announces

"Yes, you are," Tim says in determination.

"No, I'm not, now go to sleep already!" Jacob retaliates

Jacob throws Tim on his bed and he walks over to the doorway.

"Go to sleep Tim or else" Jacob threatens with his hand in a fist.

Jacob slams his brother's room door after exiting the room and he runs to Rebecca's room and loudly shoves open the door.

"Let's go home and explore." Jacob bursts

"Wait where exactly?" Rebecca asks

"To where we grew up."

"Let's do it we can even meet up with Randy." She grins jumping off her seat.

Jacob smiles to himself 'We're finally going to go visit home. We can finally explore that house we always wanted to and it's just going to be me and Becca just like how it was before, and we can finally see Randy we haven't seen him for months.'

"Where are you guys going and who are you talking about?" Tim asks suddenly he's standing at Rebecca's doorway.

"We're not going anywhere," Rebecca reassures

"Yeah, and we weren't talking about anyone Tim quit making stuff up," Jacob adds with crossed arms and a scornful expression

"Well I know for sure that you're going someone, I heard you guys. You're not going to the slums, are you? Dad says you're not allowed to go there remember? He says it's too dangerous." Tim rambles

"We're not going to the slums we're going to the ice cream shop." Jacob fibs in an annoyed voice

"I want to come too," Tim says excitedly

"No," Jacob exasperates

"If you don't let me go, I'll tell Alain that you're going to the ice cream shop even though Derik said no dessert for a month as one of your punishments."

"Fine join us on our magical journey to the ice cream shop," Jacob replies with a voice full of sarcasm

Rebecca shrugs it meant they wouldn't get to see Randy but the trip was better than staying home and writing an essay on good behavior, "Let's go through my window," she suggests while grabbing some things from her desk drawer and stuffing it in her pocket.

"Are you asking for a death wish Becca?" Jacob questions "First the chandelier and now the window."

"Oh, please we've scaled down buildings higher than my room window." Rebecca reasons with a dismissive wave

"What about me?" Tim interrupts feeling a little excluded

"You can ride on my back I've carried bags heavier than you."

"Okay, but is it safe?" Tim asks

"Of course, it isn't," Jacob mutters

"Ignore him Tim and come on guys let's go already." Rebecca asserts

Rebecca goes to the balcony and she lowers herself, so Tim can climb on her back. Jacob starts climbing down the balcony.

"Come on slowpokes." He shouts

"Hey! You aren't carrying an 8-year-old on your back." Rebecca exclaims defending her slowness.

"Well, I'm not the one who told him he could come."

"He would have snitched on us otherwise and then we would have gotten into more trouble."

"Whatever Becca just hurry up."

"I am hurrying Jacob! Tim hold on to me tighter I'm going to jump off here."

"No don't jump Becca what if we fall," Tim begs

"Just hold on Tim. "Rebecca says jumping off the first-floor window with ease.

"See Tim it was just five feet high."
