Eight years have gone by now. Anna and Emma are 13 now. The years have flown by for them. Bryanna and the twins are 10 and Kenny is 8. Fernando is 16 and he looks so different from his 8 year old self. Guilianna gave birth to a baby boy and he is 6. She named him Santiago. Things have been going good for the family. Nothing really change besides everyone getting older. Hopefully everything keeps going smooth.

Today is the first day of school for the girls and Sarah. Anna and Emma get up at 6:30am to get dress. They now get up on their own. Bryanna doesn't have to get up until 7:00am. The alarm goes off in Anna and Emma room. "Anna turn it off" Emma grunts as she pulls the blanket over her head. Anna's arm reaches to the end table besides her bed and grabs her phone to silence the alarm. After doing that she falls on the floor and slowly gets up. "First day at the high school" she says as she picks up the blanket. Emma doesn't say anything, but slowly gets up. "I hate waking up this early" Emma whines as she goes over to the closet to find clothes to wear. Anna nods her head in agreement and takes off her pajamas. She starts to dress in her long sleeve white shirt, black skinny jeans, and brown leather boots. She wants to look good for her first day, but she doesn't want to be overly dress. "Don't take long mom will get mad if we're late" Anna says leaving the room to do her hair in the bathroom. Emma gets dress after finally deciding on what to wear. She puts on a band t-shirt, dark blue skinny jeans, and her black converse sneakers. After Emma gets done dressing she brushes her hair and then goes to the bathroom to brush her teeth. When she gets to the bathroom Anna is coming out of it. "I like what you did with your hair" Emma tells Anna. "Thanks"
"I'll see you downstairs, tell mom I'm brushing my teeth"
"Alright"
Anna goes downstairs and Emma goes into the bathroom.

  A few minutes have past and it's now 6:40am. Everyone is now downstairs besides Bryanna. She's still sleeping like a baby. "Are you girls ready for your first day?" Sarah ask as she puts her laptop in her black book bag. "Yea we're ready" Anna answers. "Good, so I'll take you to school and then you'll go up to the auditorium"
"Sounds good to us" Emma replies putting her coat on.
"Can you tell us who are teachers are?" Anna ask grabbing her book bag.
"No I can't, you'll just have to wait"
Anna and Emma roll there eyes and looks at Veronica. "I love you too have a good day" Veronica says and smiles. "Love you to mom" Anna says walking to the front door. Emma follows after her and they go out to the car. "I love you have a good day" Veronica tells Sarah and gives her a peck on the lips. Then Sarah grabs her stuff and leaves to go to the car. They all get in and Sarah drives away to go to the school.

They get to the school at 7:00am when all the buses start to pull up. Sarah puts her car in parking spot 8 and gets out. The girls grab their stuff and follows Sarah into the school. "Good morning Miss. Rinkevich" a lady greets Sarah. "Morning Mrs. Patty" Sarah replies and turns to the girls. "I'll see you girls later have a great day" Sarah gives them a hug and turns to walk down the hall. "Let's go see which homeroom we're in" Anna says walking over to a wall that has paper on it. They skim through the papers until Emma finds there names. "We're in 7-5" she tells Anna. Anna nods and they go in the auditorium. They sit there for awhile and wait.

Back at the house Veronica is pouring Reese's peeses into a bowl car Bryanna. Bryanna is in her room getting dress for 4th grade. She puts on a white shirt with blue and yellow pock a dots, a grey and brown vest, a yellow skirt, and black flats. She looks so cute in the outfit. Bryanna then goes to the bathroom to brush her teeth. When she's done she goes downstairs to have Veronica do her hair. Veronica brushes her hair and then puts it in a clip. "Thanks mama" Bryanna say and sits down to eat. "Are you excite for school?"
"Yep, I hope I don't have Maxima and Jupiter in my class"
"Why?"
"Everyone will ask if we're siblings like last year"
"That makes sense, when you done put your bowl in the sink and I'll take you to school" veronica said going to the living room.

    Bryanna finish eating, she puts her bowl in the sink, and goes in the living room to put her coat on. "Mama where's my cheetah book bag?" Bryanna ask looking on the closet. "It's right here" Veronica answered holding up the book bag. "Thanks" Bryanna said putting the book bag on. Once Bryanna puts her book bag on, Veronica and Bryanna leave the house. Bryanna gets in the back seat of Veronica car and Veronica gets in the driver seat. She divers Bryanna to the middle school. "Bye mama I love you" Bryanna said getting out of the car. "I love you to have a great day" Veronica said as. Bryanna walks away. Veronica then leave the school to go to work, as Bryanna meets up with Jupiter and Maxima. "I hope we're not in the same class again" Maxima tells Jupiter. "Same" Bryanna agrees with Maxima. "I don't want to be in the same class as you two anyways" Jupiter tells them. They all go inside the school and wait in the auditorium. The principal gets on the microphone and starts to talk about the rules and other stupid stuff as they sit there. Finally after 20 minutes of boredom he starts to sort kids into teachers classrooms. He starts with the 6th grade and then 5th grade. He now is in 4th grade. Names are called left and right, and kids are placed into classes. It's now down to two more teachers, Mrs. Stavitski and Mrs. Considrne. "For Mrs. Stavitski, Jupiter Rinkevich, Maxima Rinkevich, Susan Morgan, Ava Evens, Bryanna Rinkevich- James, Jeremy Maxwell, Justin Sweet, and Tom Frozen" the principal announced. Bryanna and the twins then followed their new teacher.

      At the high school Anna and Emma sit listing to the guidance counselor talk. She explains the rules and a lot of boring stuff. "Can't they just tell us are homeroom teacher and move on?" Anna whispers to Emma. "I wish" Emma whispers back. A few minutes later and the 7th graders get to know where to go. It goes in order 7-1 to 7-7. The guidance counselor gets to 7-5 which is Anna and Emma homeroom number. She announce everyone whose in that homeroom and they have to follow Mrs. Langdon. Mrs. Langdon is their homeroom teacher. They follow her down to her classroom. The room is a medium size classroom with science posters on the walls, and 6 rolls of desk. "Just stand against the wall for now" Mrs. Langdon tells the kids as she looks at a paper. She starts putting people in a sign seats. "Anna your the first desk by me and Emma your behind her" she tells them. Anna takes her seat and so does Emma. On their desk is a schedule, a student hand book, and emergency contact papers. Once everyone is seated, Mrs. Langdon explains the rules of the class and helps some kids with there schedule. "Oh no" Anna says turning around to face Emma. "What?"
"Grandpa Rink is my English teacher"
"That must..."
"What?"
"Mom is my English teacher"
They both stare at each other blankly, until the bell rings.

The day goes on as another day. It's 6th period for Anna, Emma, Sarah, and Bryan. It's lunch time for Bryanna, Jupiter, and Maxima. For Veronica it's her normal work time. Bryanna is eating lunch with the twins and talking about sports and drawing. Maxima and Bryanna draw a lot and Jupiter likes football. "Come on Max draw me a football player" Jupiter ask. "No, ask Bryanna" Maxima replies. "No, I'm good" Bryanna replied taking a bit of pizza. Jupiter rolls his eyes and drinks his chocolate milk.

     As those three get to enjoy lunch, Sarah walks back to her classroom for 6th period. She gets there before all the kids, so she decides to set up her laptop. On a different note, Anna and Emma are walking to there English class. "Good luck with grandpa Rink" Emma tells Anna.
"Good luck with mom"
"This should be fun"
They hug and go their separate ways. Anna walks slowly to Bryan class. She goes into the classroom and takes a seat in the very back. Emma already in the class and is sitting awkwardly starring at her mom. "We'll be getting started in a movement, I'm going to put you all in a sign seats" Sarah tells the class. She calls a whole bunch class names, but stops and looks up at one. "Emma Rinkevich-James front seat" she announce all serious. Emma walks slowly to the front of the room to take her seat. She sits down in front of Sarah and puts her head down.

In Bryan classroom, Anna is sitting in the back trying to stay quiet. She's hoping Bryan won't notice she's there. He starts to put kids in a sign seats just like Sarah did. Bryan puts kids where he wants until he gets to know them better. "Anna Rinkevich-James funny how your in this class, you sit right up front in front of me" Bryan tells her and does a evil laugh. "Why grandpa Rink why" Anna whines as she makes her way to the front. "Hahaha and you call me Mr. Rink at school or else I'll tell your mother" he points and does more of his evil laugh. Anna takes her seat and puts her head down. Now everyone knows Mr. Rinkevich is Anna grandfather.

The day flew by after 6th period. It's now 2:00pm which means it's time to go home. Well for everyone at the high school. Bryanna, Maxima, and Jupiter don't get out until 2:30pm. Veronica is picking them all up, since Erick and Julie both have surgery when 2:30 comes. Anna and Emma meet up by their lockers after getting out of class. "Let's go to mom classroom and tell her what a nightmare her class is" Emma said. "We can also tell her how grandpa Rinks class is a nightmare" Anna said as her and Emma walk down the hall. They get to Sarah classroom, but she's not in it. "I guess she's in Grandpa Rinks class" Anna says. Emma nods and they walk to his classroom. They walk in to see Sarah sitting on a desk eating potato chips and Bryan drinking water. "Hey mom and Grandpa Rink" Emma says walking into the room. "Hey girls, how was your first day?" Sarah ask. "Good besides having my mom as my English teacher"
"Yea, having Grandpa wasn't as fun either"
Sarah and Bryan both start to laughing. "What?" Anna ask. "It could have been worst" Bryan answers Anna. Emma looks at Anna and then at Bryan. "How?" She ask. "You two were suppose to go in a learning support English class, since we happen to be related, but your both two advance" Sarah explain. "I see how it can be worst, everyone would be trying to copying us" Anna tells Emma. Emma gives a thumbs ups, she doesn't really care. "We have to go come on girls" Sarah tells them as she picks up her black book bag. "I'll see you tomorrow" Bryan yells to them as they leave the room.

Sarah and the girls leave the school and drive to the store. "What are we getting here?" Anna ask as she looks out the window. "We are getting food" Sarah replies getting out of the park car. Emma and Anna get out too and they walk in the grocery store. "Emma grab a cart please" Sarah tells her as she shoves her keys in her purse. Emma grabs the cart and Anna tries to hope on it. "Anna get off I can't push with you on it" Emma says as she tries to make a turn, but ends up hitting the soda stand. "Then let me push"
"No, you pushed last time"
"I like to push the cart"
"Stop it both of you, Emma you push and Anna you fetch" Sarah interrupts the argument. "Fine" Anna agrees in a grumpy tone. To be clear on one thing fetch is an app you can use to see how much your going to spend. All you have to do is scan the item you want to buy. Sarah starts to hand things to Anna who scans them with Sarah's phone. After Anna scans them she puts the items in the cart. "How much are we at?" Sarah ask. "We are at $30.89" Anna replies. "Ok, I think we got everything" Sarah says. "Are you sure mom?" Emma ask. Sarah doesn't answer, but instead starts to think. "In two seconds she's going to know what we're missing" Anna whispers. They stare at Sarah and right away she looks up at them. "Eggs that's what we're missing"
"Alright mom to the eggs" Emma says and pushes the cart to the eggs. They get the eggs and then goes to check out. Sarah pays for the food and they all go to the car. Anna and Emma help put the food in the truck. Sarah takes the cart back as the girls get in the car. Soon she comes back and they pull out of the store parking lot.

Once they got home they unloaded the car and put the food away in the house. After doing that Anna and Emma gave Sarah the contact papers, and all those things that she has to sign. She starts to sign them and the girls go on there room to do whatever. As Sarah fills out the papers, Veronica comes home with Bryanna, Maxima, and Jupiter. They come in the kitchen where Sarah is and Veronica puts her keys on the key hanging thing. Bryanna puts her book bag on the table and pulls out papers that Sarah needs to fill out. Maxima and Jupiter just stand there awkwardly. "How was school?" Sarah ask looking up from the papers. "It was good, but sadly we're all in the same class again" Jupiter speaks. "At least it was a good first day" Veronica says wrapping her arms around Sarah. "Ya that's true" Maxima said. "Come on let's go draw Max" Bryanna tells her. Bryanna takes her book bag, and her and Maxima go up to Bryanna's room. "Can I watch tv?" Jupiter ask still standing awkwardly. "Go ahead" Sarah tells him. He leaves the kitchen and goes in the living room to watch tv.

    A few hours pass and Erick and Julie comes to pick up the twins. Julie rings the door bell, but Erick just walks in. "You couldn't wait five seconds" Sarah said coming out of the kitchen. "No he couldn't" Julie answered. Erick just plops his self on the couch next to Jupiter. "Thank you for watching them, Fernando had work so he couldn't watch them" Julie said. "Anytime, Veronica went to get Maxima"
"Alright, Jupiter are you ready?"
"Yea mom I'm all ready" Jupiter replies getting off the couch. Erick turns off the tv and gets up too. "Sarah how's your head? No big head aches?" Erick ask putting his hand on Sarah's forehead. "Erick it's been eight years now, I'm 100% fine" Sarah said moving his hand away. He glares at her and as he glares a little voice yells daddy. He turns to see a 10 year old Maxima running over to him. Erick gives her a hug. "Do you two have everything?" Erick ask the twins letting go of Maxima. They both nod yes and Julie takes them out to the car. Erick gives Sarah a hug and rubs his hand through her hair. "Erick stop feeling my hair" Sarah tells him. He lets go if her, says bye, and leave the house. Him, Julie and the twins drive home safely.

    It's now 7:30pm. Anna is in her room watching youtube on her phone. Emma is taking a shower and Bryanna is playing with her Barbie dolls. Sarah and Veronica are downstairs talking about grown up stuff. After Emma takes her shower she goes upstairs to change into her SpongeBob pajamas and lays on her bed. She starts to watch youtube just like Anna is. 9:45 comes and it's time for Bryanna to go to bed. Sarah and Veronica tuck her in. They use to tuck Anna and Emma in, but not anymore. Once Bryanna is all tucked in, Veronica goes into Anna and Emma room, and Sarah goes downstairs. "Lights out at 10:30" Veronica tells them. "Ok mom" Anna tells her. Veronica leaves the room and goes to her and Sarah room. She changes into her pajamas and lays down in the warm soft bed. As for Sarah, she sits on the back porch with a glass of wine. She finishes the wine and goes inside to clean the glass. As she cleans the glass the door bell rings. Confuse as she is, Sarah grabs the baseball bat, hides it behind her back, and goes to the front door to open it. She open it and find a tall brown haired brown eyed man, and next to him is a short brown haired green eyed young girl about 21-24 years old. "Can I help you?" Sarah ask. "This is very sudden, but are you Sarah Rinkevich or Veronica James?" The man ask. "Sarah and who are you?"
"My name is Robert Jones and this is Adele Brown"
"What do you want and how do you two know me and my wife?"
"I'm Anna and Bryanna birth father"
"And I'm Emma biologic sister"
Completely shocked Sarah's mouth drops and she quickly slams the door shut.
