Internet Sensation: Starting Out

The first of a series of stories about Sophia and Emilia Friar, aspiring YouTube queens.

15 year old twins Sophia and Emilia Friar are just regular girls. They have an 11 year old brother Zac and a 7 year old brother Peter. Their parents split when they were 10 and they have been helping their mum with looking after everyone ever since. But now everything is different. Mum has a new fiancé, Italian 'Knight in shining armour' Bruno. Usually, everyone is happy for mum when she is happy but no one likes Bruno. He has 3 children already, 12 year old Jen, 10 year old Nathan and 5 year old Luke, all of whom are rude, disrespectful and downright annoying. Life with Bruno and his family is hard, especially when the twins have to be courteous to people they can't stand. But everyday, for an hour, the twins get some time alone. They cherish their free time and use it as wisely and as leisurely as they can. They often watch YouTube videos and try to remake DIYs they see on Pinterest. They never think of doing anything more than just watching videos until one day when they were just so bored of their new lives, Lotus Flower was born.
