*1: Freshman year at Yale
" HARPER! FELIX! AMELIA AND CELESTE! GET THE HELL UP BEFORE I COME UP THERE AND DRAG YOUR ASSES OUT OF BED!", mom woke us up with a very loud warning. But we knew she was only looking out for us. I got out of bed and trudged over to my charging phone, to check what time it was. All the tiredness vanished as soon as I found out what day it was. It was moving, day for my brother and me as we were headed off to college. A college that was about an eight-hour drive, away from our house to be exact!
Panicking I rushed to my closet and picked out something random and put it on, knowing that we had to get on the road if we were going to make it in time. Then I sprinted out of my room and into the bathroom to brush my teeth and hair along with putting a little makeup on. After that was done, I grabbed my suitcases and rolled them down the stairs, past the living room, and out the door where I found mom watching birds fly around while drinking a cup of coffee. My twin brother Felix was placing luggage into the back of the car we were taking.
" Morning mom, morning Felix", I greeted. Mom hugged me and went back inside the house. Suddenly Celeste one of my younger sisters ran outside and hugged my legs with tears in her eyes. " Sissy! Please don't leave!", She cried. My heart felt like it was about to break as she continued to cry. I bent down and picked her up, and sat her on my hip.
" Shhh, it's okay Celeste. I'll call mom every night, and I'll send pictures, and maybe even try to visit every once in a while", I told her softly as I wiped away her tears with the pad of my thumb. That seemed to calm her down a bit.
She sniffed. "Pinky Promise?"
With a smile, I wrapped my pinky around her little one letting her know that I was serious. Then Amelia my other sister who was 16, stumbled out of the house in short shorts, a tank top, and flip-flops. " Jesus!", She groaned. " It's so bright!" I stifled a laugh and shook my head. Oh, Amelia. She was the wild one out of the four of us. She liked to sneak out at night and go to parties, which was where she probably was last night. Hence the hangover, she probably had was the effect of going to a party.
" Amelia, did you sneak out again last night?", Felix questioned as he walked over and joined us on the porch. She nodded. " Duh! The partying never dies!"
This time, I couldn't help myself, and I burst out laughing so hard I almost tripped and dropped Celeste who was also giggling. Felix also was clutching his side and chuckling at a slightly still drunk Amelia.
" AMELIA MARIE MILES! WHY DOES YOUR ROOM STINK OF BEER!?", We heard our mother yell from inside the house. Uh oh. Amelia's face instantly paled knowing that she was not going to get out of this one unscathed.
