Chapter 5

A woman in a pink-and-white outfit with shaggy blond hair and brown eyes walked up with four cups of water. "Welcome to Rings. I'm Tina, and I'm gonna be your server." She said. She turned to us kids. "Wow. Look at the three of you." She said. "Uh, what do ya mean? They look like ah just three regular innocent all American kids." Jack stammered "Well, they look like they just rolled around in a dirty pig pen before dinner that's all." Tina said. She has a scratchy voice. "Evenin' Tina." A cop said. "Sheriff Anthony! Your table is waiting for ya. Ima sent ya round a free pie, huh?" Tina said. Sheriff Anthony nodded. "Sounds good Thanks." He said. She turned back to us as he walked off. "Why don't you three come with me, and we will get ya washed up, huh?" she said. We stood and followed her. "Hurry back." Jack said.

After we got back, I zoned out. I was back at one of my first memories. Mom had taken Sara out for a walk to the park to meet a friend. Dad put in a scary movie for Seth and I to watch. A scary part came, and I screamed and curled into Seth. "That's right little sister, come to big brother!" he said to me. I punched him the best I could for a five year old. "Shuddup! You are only 'bigger than me by five minutes!" I said. He grinned. "Minutes count!" he said cheerfully the door opened, and mom and Sara came running in. Sara jumped on us. "We ba-ack!" she sang out. We all laughed. Dad came in holding a HUGE bowl of popcorn, and kissed mom. "Ewwww!" we yelled. They broke away and laughed. They walked over and sat with us. That moment, frozen in forever. My siblings around me, parents behind me, buttery popcorn in the air.
